International Cuba to America: Obama, Bad; Kool and the Gang, Good
Posted by Charles Mudede on Mon, Dec 21, 2009 at 8:32 AM
BBC reports:
Cuban President Raul Castro has lashed out at the US, accusing Barack Obama's administration of endorsing efforts to undermine the communist regime. In his annual address, Mr Castro said the US had sent a government contractor to supply dissidents. The unnamed US citizen was detained two weeks ago.
Speaking during his annual address, he said "the enemy is as active as ever." The comments came as US band Kool and the Gang performed in Havana, in what some saw a sign of improving ties.
The world used to bitch about Bush; the world is now getting used to bitching about Obama. The world, however, has never bitched about Kool and the Gang.

Kool and the Gang's approval ratings in polls have never dropped below 80%. You have to admit, that's really impressive.
