So, yes, there's the baseball game in Cuba that Obama went to.

There's also the speech Obama gave to the citizens of Cuba.

Did you hear/read it?

It's Obama at his best - soaring rhetoric, utterly optimistic, looking upwards.

Nice speech, actually.
I watched it. It was actually kind of surreal watching his speech, while the dust was still settling in Brussels.

I don't get that. Why so negative? There are things to be optimistic about in the world as well as things that are troubling. Are we really so shallow that reality feels surreal? Honestly, if the West is that shaken by a terrorist attack, then I'd say we really haven't been paying attention to the last 20 years.

Obama wanted his moment in Cuba and could care less what the rest of the world was doing.

All our problems? Really? When was the last time all our problems were solved? That's pretty unrealistic.

If you don't say "radical Islamic terrorist" it means you hate America, baseball, Apple pie, and Chevrolet.

Obama made it an issue by refusing to say it. It does not insult all muslims to identify those who twist the ideology to harm others. You liberals have had no problem doing it to Christians. But slam a radical muslim and we suddenly threatened with legal action.
