Congressional Black Caucus politicking in Cuba

You think the North Korean nuts are demanding attention? I give you the Congressional Black Caucus. No, these black Congressmen are not shooting missiles, but they fly to communist Cuba to cozy up with the Castro brothers. Maybe the socialists and communists are exchanging ideas on how to better their respective countries. I'm waiting on the day that Islamofascists are invited to the meeting too.

Medvedev's pre-emptive strike againt Obama

There are whispers in Washington about the President planning to negotiate with Russian President Medvedev on Iran where the U.S. will abandon missile shield installation in Eastern Europe if Moscow cooperates on pressuring Tehran.

But now it looks like Medvedev ain't playing.

Well, what couldn't be a more clearer indication of the need for the missile shield? Russia is aggressively looking for partners to dethrone America as the leading superpower, and that includes warming up to China, Venezuela, and Cuba. Why is Obama even considering such a huge concession in return for Russia's alliance against Iran?
