Bush criticizes new Cuban leadership

The cubans have said already that they will not talk to the Bush Crime Family. When Obama is pres. perhaps.

u really think obama/osama will be next u.s. president,think again buddy!

Fidel Castro said Wednesday that USA's current- Bush leadership has made only "empty gestures at reform" and rejected calls for easing of Cuban restrictions against the United States.
"Until there is a change of heart and a change of compassion and a change of how the United States government treats its people, there's no change at all," Castro said at the State Department to the Council of Americas, a business group that advocates for democracy and open markets in the Western Hemisphere. "United States will not be a land of liberty so long as free expression is punished and free speech can take place only in hushed whispers and silent prayers. And United States will not become a place of prosperity just by easing restrictions on the sale of products that the average American cannot afford."

one castro is as bad as another castro. www.therealcuba.com

What Bush said is just the truth about Cuba. He can be the worst President for USA, but about Cuba he is right. Who ever be the next President won't have many choices about Cuba Terroist and Castros's Dictatorship. Or do you really think it will be any different? Maybe Democrats will try to be friendly as they did before, but for sure nothing to do with FREEDOM to Cuba. Anything said by Clinton or Obama it is just Politics!! http://www.youtube.com/watch...

The devil is in Havana.......... hptt://www.youtube.com/watch?v =v1HEtT3KjBo&feature=relat ed

we think and say we are so bad. if we are, then why isn't castro and his bro dead yet?

One dicktaster criticizing another. Ironic.

Until there is a change of heart and a change of compassion and a change of how the Cuban government treats its people, there's no change at all," Bush said at the State Department to the Council of Americas, a business group that advocates for democracy and open markets in the Western Hemisphere. "Cuba will not be a land of liberty so long as free expression is punished and free speech can take place only in hushed whispers and silent prayers. And Cuba will not become a place of prosperity just by easing restrictions on the sale of products that the average Cuban cannot afford."
But Bush has stressed that a new Castro does not mean a new Cuba, and he did so again on Wednesday.

He said Cuba's government must allow Cubans "to pick their own leaders in free and fair elections," release all political prisoners and respect human rights "in word and deed."

"This is the policy of the United States and it must not change until the people of Cuba are free," the president said.

The activists said Bush congratulated them on their bravery.

"He's a president who leaves power in 10 months, but he's the head of state closest to the Cuban people," Soler told The Associated Press later. "He is one of the few presidents worrying about Cuba's problems."

It was the first time Bush has spoken directly to opposition leaders on the island, the U.S. Interests Section said. The use of U.S. property in Havana to facilitate the conversation won't please Cuba's government, which tolerates no organized opposition and dismisses dissidents as U.S.-paid mercenaries trying to topple the communist system.

In March, Bush met at the White House with a former Cuban prisoner and his wife to mark the five-year anniversary of the 2003 arrests.

WELL SAID!

He has been the only President that within his power have listen to cubans and have denounce Fidel Castro Openlly calling him what he is a Dictator who has slavery the people of Cuba for 50 years. Bush support the Embargo,have limited the traveling to Terrorist Cuba and have approved millions of dollars in programs to Democracy in Cuba. Instead of having friendly talks with our enemies,,he has fight them ecconomically. Bush is a proven Democratic Man and against Communism. For cubans americans it means alot..we do not fool around with Leftiest , Reformist and Socialists that have never achieved anything in the world but destruction and pain, and Finnaly hate Americans as well as democracy.

Luce que 'el negrito del batey" sera el proximo Pres. hay mucha trampa en el partido Democrata. Yo detesto Howard Dean,(acabo con Hillary) es un insolente y no tiene escrupulos. y las posibilidades de Mccain no son muy buenas.
