Has it occurred to Barack Obama that the reason some countries are rogue nations because they are led by irrational people? Probably not. Perhaps, unlike Jimmy Carter, he'll learn.Fidel Castro said Tuesday that President Barack Obama "misinterpreted" his brother Raul's sentiments toward the United States and bristled at any suggestion Cuba should free political prisoners or reduce official fees on money sent to the island from the U.S.
Fidel Castro met with Chicago South Side Congressman Bobby Rush and members of the Congressional Black Caucus two weeks ago and expressed admiration for Obama. But in an essay posted on a Cuban government Web site, Castro blasted the new U.S. president for showing signs of "superficiality."
He also wrote Obama "without a doubt misinterpreted Raul's declarations."
Raul Castro said last week that Cuban leaders would be willing to sit down with their U.S. counterparts and discuss "everything," including human rights, freedom of the press and expression, and political prisoners on the island.
