President Obama should stay in Cuba if he loves it so much

It’s bad enough that President Barack Obama traveled to Cuba, a country whose values are at odds with our own, and the mainstream media are just eating it up while our European ally Belgium is brutally attacked by radical Islamic terrorists.

Our fearless “leader” decides to stay there, kibitzing with Raul Castro and going to a ball game! Unbelievable!

Obama’s excuse is that we shouldn’t let terrorists interrupt our everyday life? That has to be the biggest load of bull twinkie (and I have heard a lot over the past eight years) ever.

Come on, man, Americans were injured in that attack. I hope he enjoys his hot dogs and beer.

Here’s an idea … if Obama loves Cuba so much, perhaps he should stay there!
