I think you have a preconceived opinion which drives your conclusions. You think I couldn't possibly be okay with Reagan sending a delegation to a Soviet funeral, and not be okay with Obama doing it, unless it's because I'm biased towards Reagan. You've failed to imagine why else I might do that.
What I have been trying to tell you, I have been very consistent in my disdain for Obama warming up to the Castro's. I think it's a mistake. I think it's spitting in the face of the Cubans who fled Castro. I do not support restoring relations with Cuba as things stand now. Therefore, I do not support Obama's overtures towards Cuba. This has nothing to do with Reagan. This is just you pursuing faux hypocrisy, as if someone couldn't possibly have the view I have without it. Nonsense.
I view Obama's actions towards Cuba as kissing Castro's ass. I've repeated asked you to give an example of Reagan kissing a Russian's ass like that. Rather, Reagan's tougher posture towards the Soviets helped end the Soviet Union. What the **** has Obama done?
No, it's not false hypocrisy. It's not even about Reagan. It's about an tradition of American policy that has been observed for more than 70 years.
You say Obama is spitting in the face of Cubans that fled Castro? For you to be consistent in your disagreement, you must also condemn the "warming up" to nations like Vietnam, Nicaragua, and China. Nations with horrible records, massive refugees, and whom the US wasn't able to impose it's will upon. As hardline as the countries are/were, they all took baby steps away from their traditional stances, and we took steps towards them.
To be further consistent, you would have to condemn the policies of our allies (former/current), like the Philippines, South Africa, Panama, Honduras etc, who were very oppressive of their populations yet had ironclad US support, as long as they stayed our allies. By your litmus test of kissing butt, the US has been kissing the butts, of the latter, since the end of WW2.
It's completely fair to ask why is there outrage over Obama's overtures to Cuba and the cries of "think of the Cubans," when the same overtures weren't made, by previous administrations, to the people from the various "allied" nations I mentioned earlier. For those that rail against Obama's Cuba thaw, it's either hypocrisy, or ignorance of 70 years of US international policy.
