The number of Americans filing for first-time unemployment benefits fell
last week to 276,000 from an upwardly revised 284,000 the week prior.
Economists expected claims to fall to 279,000 from an initially reported
282,000.
AMENPER: Política exterior de la
Administración…
¿Vieron las noticias?, Kerry se rompió una pierna, la pregunta es ¿Los
iraníes le rompieron la pierna a Kerry como una advertencia?, o ¿se la rompió
el mismo para salir de las negociaciones con ellos? –
Kerry dice que las conversaciones de paz están detenidas por mentiras,
tácticas engañosas y mala fe, pero él no estaba hablando acerca
de las conversaciones con Irán estaba hablando de las conversaciones
con Israel.
Algo que ha logrado negociar Kerry en el Medio Oriente es llegar a un
acuerdo con las fuerzas combatientes de ISIS-
Combatientes de ISIS vendrán a Baltimore a petición del gobierno ante la
brutalidad de la policía para usar métodos más compasivos y menos violentos
para pacificar la ciudad.
Durante su estancia nuestros amigos de ISIS celebrarán eventos para
conseguir más reclutas
Planean sociales con helados y bandas, actos de fuegos naturales
presentando a un infiel ardiendo, torneos de lanzar rocas a las
mujeres, fuegos artificiales con bombas de carros suicidas, y torneo
de lanzamiento de cuchillos teniendo como blanco a judíos, y otros no
creyentes. Ofreceran actos sexuales gratis, con cabras, ovejas y camellos, y un
programa de bailarinas exóticas con el cuerpo y la cara cubierta, el
baile se llama burka-es-hermoso.
Obama insiste en que esta estrategia de Kerry es parte de sus planes
de su política exterior que funciona: "guerra, violencia, invasión y
conquista son signos de debilidad; tenemos a ISIS exactamente donde queremos,
aquí los podemos vigilar”.
Pero no piensen tan mal de Obama ahora que están en territorio americano,
tiene una nueva estrategia que puede funcionar, él va a atacar a ISIS con una
nueva agencia regulatoria federal implementada por el servicio de rentas
internas-
AMENPER:
El País de los Gatos por Lao She…
Lao She es sin duda uno de los novelistas más grandes
de China, aunque "El País de los gatos", no es su mejor
trabajo.
Aun así, al ” El País de los Gatos” a menudo se le
llama el primer trabajo chino de ciencia ficción con tonos políticos, y tiene
más observaciones inteligentes y un fondo satírico para hacerlo
digno de la lectura.
El libro fue escrito en los años 60s. En la fatídica
época de la Revolución Cultural de Mao.
Como miles de otros intelectuales en China, Lao She
experimentó maltrato en la década de 1960. Guardias rojos de la Revolución
Cultural le habían atacado como contrarrevolucionario. Lo hicieron
como a otros desfilar por las calles por las calles y lo golpearon en público
en las escaleras de la puerta del templo de Confucio en Beijing.
Humillado grandemente tanto mentalmente como
físicamente, según el registro oficial, se suicidó ahogándose en el lago
Taiping de Pekín en 1966.
Lao lo hizo siguiendo la antigua tradición de los
intelectuales chinos, protestando sacrificando su propia vida, pero algunos
mencionaron la posibilidad de asesinato.
Sus familiares fueron acusados de implicación en sus
"crímenes" pero pudieron rescatar sus manuscritos después de su
muerte, incluyendo “El País de los Gatos”, escondiéndolos en pilas
de carbón y chimeneas moviéndolos de casa en casa
El país de los gatos es un intento de sátira crítica
al sistema comunista, es más sutil que digamos, “Rebelión en la Granja” (Animal
Farm) de George Orwell, tiene que serlo, ya que de lo que se trata es de una
crítica abierta al sistema escondida en la sátira, ya que era imposible durante
la Revolución Cultural expresar abiertamente una crítica al comunismo.
Pero para el que ve lo que hay detrás de la sátira, lo
disfruta porque le hace recordar a Rebelión en la Granja, ya que lleva un
mensaje parecido a la crítica del socialismo usando animales.
En Resumen, el narrador del país de los gatos
viaja a Marte, que la encuentra habitada por una civilización de gatos, que
está al borde del colapso debido a la decadencia interna y décadas de abuso por
parte de situaciones foráneas.
Se supone que es una sátira en China de los años
treinta, con sus problemas sociales aparentemente sin esperanza y con
depredación extranjera, pero es realmente un vistazo muy universal que está
enfocado en el extremo receptor de un sistema gubernamental, el
pueblo, y sutilmente expresada con tonos de crítica al sistema
comunista. Trata de hacer ver cómo personas que son
oprimidas a menudo empeoran su situación con lucha despistada, en lugar de
luchar con eficacia insisten en culpar opresor del pasado por los problemas del
presente. (Oh, hay un montón de cosas que son problemas del pueblo chino como
fumar opio, que fue impuesta sobre ellos por los británicos, en Cuba la
culpa era de la corrupcion y la dictadura Batistiana o en los Estados
Unidos, el guerrerismo de George Bush)
Una parte especialmente mordaz: un grupo de
gatos izquierdistas quieren fundar una nueva sociedad basada en los campesinos
y proletarios, "pero no tienen la noción en la cultura del postmodernismo
(implica Maoísmo), sobre que fue la agricultura o lo que
el cosa es el proletariado".
Escondiéndose en los males de la época anterior al
comunismo, con la crítica de los años dell imperialismo Británico, Lao She
satíricamente hace una crítica al comunismo. Cómo las cosas
tradicionales chinas como el trabajo y la agricultura han desaparecido en la
China de su tiempo bajo Mao.
Claro que no han desaparecido realmente, pero de esto
se trata una sátira, que es la exageración para exponer un punto. Lo que quiere
decir Lao She es que con el sistema comunista, la ética de trabajo y producción
como es la agricultura ha bajado por la pérdida de los nuevos valores que se
basan más en la política que en el trabajo para producción.
Igual con echar la culpa al pasado cuando hace recaer
la culpa de los vicios del comunismo a la época anterior. Los que
hemos vivido en situaciones parecida podemos identificarnos cuando por años
Batista era el culpable de todos los problemas de Cuba así como Bush es el
culpable de todos los problemas de esta administración. En el caso
del Opio Británico en Cuba era el imperialismo Yanqui.
Paradójicamente la China de hoy no es la China de Mao
que nos pinta en su libro Lao She, sin embargo vemos como años después países
ven en el comunismo de Mao la solución de sus problemas.
Pasamos por Mao, Stalin, Fidel, los resultados son
palpablemente evidentes, ha sido un sistema que ha llevado al país donde se implanta
a la miseria y la opresión. ¿Cómo es que no aprenden? ¿Cómo es que
ignoran lo obvio?

Looming
White House Financial Crisis Could Erupt In 2015? 06.03.2015 by Mike Palmer, Stansberry Researc
No one believed Porter Stansberry six years ago.
As head of one of America's largest independent financial research
firms, Mr. Stansberry's work back in 2008 led him to a bold, but worrisome,
conclusion:
That the world’s largest mortgage bankers–Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac,
which at the time were responsible for nearly 50% of all the mortgages in
America–would soon go bankrupt.
In fact, in June of 2008, while their stock prices were still trading
at well over $20 per share, Stansberry published a report to his customers
titled: "Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Are Going to Zero."
Inside this report, Stansberry explained:
"For those of you who don’t work in the financial industry, it
might be hard for you to immediately grasp what’s so dangerous about the
extreme amount of leverage employed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Let me
explain exactly what Fannie and Freddie do and why they’re in so much
jeopardy…"
We all know what happened next.
Both agencies went bust -- and if not for a bailout from the Federal
Government, both would have declared bankruptcy.
Barron's -- America's second biggest financial newspaper -- even wrote a story
about Mr. Stansberry's accurate prediction short, and called it
"remarkably prescient."
Over the years, Mr. Stansberry has made a name for himself by accurately
predicting the biggest and most important collapses in America.
A few of the others he's accurately identified well in advance
include: General Motors, General Growth Property (America's biggest mall
owner), D.R. Horton (a homebuilder), and Gannett newspapers, to name just a
few.
Stansberry also predicted the recent collapse of oil and natural gas
prices as early as 2010, when he wrote a report titled: "Peak Oil is a
Flat Lie."
Well, now Mr. Stansberry has issued another fascinating warning, about
a new and looming bankruptcy.
As Mr. Stansberry writes:
"No one believed me years ago when I said the world’s largest
mortgage bankers would soon go bankrupt.
And no one believed me when I said GM would fall apart… or that the
same would happen to General Growth Properties.
But that’s exactly what happened."
And, he says, that brings us today.
Stansberry says the next
big bankruptcy in America will be even bigger than those he's identified in
the past. In fact, he says this looming bankruptcy will threaten your way of
life, whether you own any investments related to it or not.
This collapse, says Stansberry, will change everything about our
normal way of life: where you vacation… where you send your kids or grandkids
to school… how and where you shop… the way you protect your family and home.
I strongly encourage you to check out Mr. Stansberry's recent write-up
on this situation.

EXCLUSIVE:
House Committee Knows Of Hillary Email Server Whistleblower
The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform
recently heard new information that could blow the lid off of the Hillary Clinton
private email server scandal and shed new light on a consulting job Huma
Abedin held while working as Clinton’s aide at the State Department.
The Daily Caller learned of a three-hour May 1 meeting
two State Department whistleblowers held with the general counsel and staffers
for the Oversight Committee, which is led by Utah Republican Jason Chaffetz.
According to a copy of notes from that meeting,
State Department whistleblower Richard Higbie and another whistleblower told of
an inspector-turned-whistleblower with State’s office of the inspector general
who claims his investigation into Abedin’s work with Teneo Holdings,
a consulting firm, led to the discovery of Clinton’s private email server.
According to the notes, the whistleblower also told
Higbie that the investigation was shut down by Harold Geisel, the former acting
inspector general for the State Department whose tenure was marked by
accusations of political favoritism.

Hillary goes underwater in the polls
By Canadian Press
WASHINGTON — Hillary Clinton's campaign is barely off the runway and it's already
lost a little altitude.
In fact she's dipped enough in the latest polls that the presumed
favourite in the 2016 U.S. presidential race is now underwater, with more
people expressing an unfavourable view than a favourable one.
A similar downward trend was expressed Tuesday in two new polls,
released just weeks after she launched her campaign and even before her first
big rally scheduled for June 13 in New York City.
One registered her lowest favourable rating in a decade.
The CNN survey put it at 46 per cent — down sharply since controversies
erupted over her secretive email server and conflicts-of-interest claims
involving her family foundation and far lower than her peak of 69 per cent
recorded in 2011.
There's good news for Clinton: She still leads all Republican rivals.
Barely.
That survey had her beating Sen. Rand Paul by a mere percentage point,
with a three-point lead over Sen. Marco Rubio and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker.
The bad news for her is the lead has shrunk considerably. Her standing
among self-described independents has suffered, with only 37 per cent
describing her as honest and trustworthy.
The Republican party revelled in the surveys on Tuesday by posting a
roundup of all the media reaction on its website, with headlines like:
"Clinton Faces Questions of Trustworthiness," and "Clinton
Unfavourable Numbers Highest in 14 Years."
Still, with 17 months to go before the election, the former secretary of
state, senator and first lady remains in the enviable position of having a
monumental lead in her own party's nomination race.
While a crowded Republican ring will spend the coming months in a
political battle royal, Clinton's closest threat on the Democratic side is,
according to the CNN survey, 50 percentage points back.
That long shot is Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders in second place, followed
by the other declared candidate on the Democratic side, Maryland Gov. Martin
O'Malley.
"If either one of them were to win, it would be the greatest upset
in the history of politics," said Dan Pfeiffer, a former Obama White House
aide now a CNN political analyst.
To avoid a repeat of her 2008 primary loss, Clinton has tacked left on a
series of issues: more lenient prison sentences, campaign-finance reform,
immigration, same-sex marriage. She's kept silent on other issues where she's
been to the right of her party grassroots — such as free trade and the Keystone
pipeline.
But she's not nearly as left-leaning as Sanders.
The 73-year-old, self-described socialist supports Canadian-style health
care. He's among the minority in Congress fighting a surveillance bill that
would replace expired provisions of the 2001 Patriot Act. And, unlike Clinton,
he voted consistently against tough prison sentences and the Iraq war before it
became politically fashionable.
And he's developing an enthusiastic online following.
Flattering posts about Sanders have been getting up to 70,000 mentions
on Facebook and Twitter, with headlines like: "Bernie Sanders has big
ideas, and they deserve our attention."
That's more than triple what positive items about the far-more-famous
Clinton have generated over the same period, according to the monitoring site
Spike. Sanders has also been speaking to overflow rooms and has raised enough
money to add to his paid organizers in Iowa — he currently has two, compared
with Clinton's estimated 30 in that state.
Rush Limbaugh: Our
Delusional President
RUSH: Have you heard what Obama said? Grab audio
sound bite number 18. This is yesterday in Washington at the White House,
the president speaking to fellows of the Young Southeast Asian Leaders
Initiative.
OBAMA: One of the important principles for me
has always been treating everybody fairly.
RUSH: Right.
OBAMA: So whether that's women or people of
different races --
RUSH: Right, yeah.
OBAMA: -- or, uh, different religious faiths --
RUSH: Right, yeah, right.
OBAMA: -- or different sexual orientations --
RUSH: Oh, yeah.
OBAMA: -- one of my core principles --
RUSH: Yes?
OBAMA: -- is that I will never engage in a
politics in which I'm trying to divide people --
OBAMA: -- or make them less than me because they look
different or have a different religion. That's a core principle!
I... That's not something I would violate.
RUSH: Really? Folks, this is
classic. Go out... It's just the exact opposite. He clearly sees
certain people as lesser. He clearly sees people that he doesn't like
that he considers to be enemies, people that need to be gotten even with, and
he clearly has divided people. I mean, by design! There could be no other
result for some of the reasons or same things that Obama has done as
president. But it got even funnier -- or maybe you would say more
delusional.
OBAMA: People don't remember, when I came into
office, uh, the United States in world opinion ranked below China and just
barely above Russia. And today, once again the United States is the most
respected country on earth.
RUSH: (laughing)
OBAMA: And part of that I think is because of
the work that we did to, uh, reengage the world and say that we want to work
with you as partners, uh, with mutual interests and mutual respect. It's
on that basis that we were able to end two wars.
RUSH: Here's the thing: I think he really
believes it. I don't think that he's just saying this for the
record. I think he really believes this stuff, folks. This is what
makes this so problematic to me. Now, he's delusional. If he really means
this, if he really believes this, he's delusional. If I'm wrong, if he
doesn't believe it, if it's just political positioning, it doesn't matter.
In stuff like this, motivation actually doesn't matter.
It's the hard, actual fact or result that you have to
deal with. The motivation's just a sideline. And this is
absurd. The country was never hated and despised. The first myth
here and one of the things that got Obama elected was the media and the
Democrat Party running around claiming the world hated the United States
because of George Bush and Dick Cheney. It despised us, hated us, and we needed
to elect these guys to once again make Europe love us!
Because Europe was the cutting edge. Europe was the
gold standard. Europe and being European was exactly what we should aspire to.
Being loved and adored by European socialists, and being loved and adored by
our enemies in the Middle East. I'm sure that Obama, in his world, as a
narcissist, actually does walk around thinking that he has rebuilt all this
love and respect and adulation for himself and for the country.
But this idea, "I've restored America to the host
respected country on earth"? Next he's going to say, "I made
Baltimore the safest city in America," and he'll follow that by saying,
"Hillary Clinton and I made Libya, Iraq, and Syria the safest countries on
earth." Next, "Hillary and I also neutered Russia and China with our
reset program!" He will say, "We have got the cheapest health care
system in the world now, thanks to me."
Have you heard the news about that today, folks?
Have you heard what your health care premiums next year are gonna do?
Have you heard about increases along the lines of 26%? Do you know why?
Because they don't have enough members. They don't have any people
signing up for health care in large enough groups to bring the prices
down. Yet there's Obama. He promised everybody premiums gonna come down
$2500! "Keep your doctor and keep your plan if you like it!
"Everybody's gonna have health care! Health
care's gonna be much cheaper and much more accessible." So the next
thing he's gonna tell us is he never lied about health care. He made health
care cheaper than it's ever been in the United States. He'll follow that
by pointing out that he has created the greatest growth in GDP in the entire
history of the American economy. He will remind us that he said he was
gonna cut the national debt in half, and then he will claim that he did it.
He'll follow that by saying, "I made the Veteran
Administration Hospitals the greatest health care providers on
earth." I mean, to run around and say that he's restored America to
the most respected country on earth is no different than saying he's made
Baltimore the safest city on earth and that he's lowered health care costs
dramatically across the board. This is delusional. But you see, the
thing is, we once again are up against it.
On the one hand over here we have reality. On
the other hand we have the media and Obama and a combo desire to make Obama
look as though he has been and is the greatest president the country's ever
had. Make no mistake: That's the objective. So Obama goes out and
says this, and that permits the media to report it and to stand on it and to
analyze it and to write stories about how it's actually true. (interruption)
Well, you wait! That's the next thing that's gonna happen.
There will be deep analytical pieces, fact-check type
stories, too. "Is Obama's claim that he's restored America to the
most respected country on earth true or false?" And you're gonna see
in depth -- oh, you won't believe it, in-depth analysis -- going back eight
years, interviews with world leaders all over the world, and they will come to
the conclusion that while it may not look like it on the surface, Obama has
dramatically made this country more respected than it was when he took office.
It'll be another opportunity to bash Bush and bash the
Republicans. So once again an alternative reality will be created that
will be taught in schools. It'll be in the mainstream media, Drive-By Media on
a daily basis. They will just create this stuff out of whole cloth, and it will
become the next new reality. Half the country or more are gonna be sitting
around scratching their heads wondering, "How the hell can this
happen?"
Everybody is gonna be asking, "Are you kidding
me? How in the world is this happen?"
The answer's gonna be like every other answer is:
"It cannot happen without a complicit, compliant bunch of accomplices in
the media," pure and simple. There won't be any push-back on the
Republican Party on this. This is not even about Hillary Clinton's
campaign. This is not about electing the next Democrat. This is all
about legacy. This is like Benghazi. It's like restructuring what
really happened in Benghazi.
By the end of his administration, Benghazi's gonna be
nothing really happened there except a great, great policy that nobody was able
to see at the time. (Obama impression) "I'm gonna tell you what. I'm
the first president to guarantee health care for every American.
Affordable! And I'm the first president that made sure that we deal with
Iran on nuclear weapons." He won't say how. He's just gonna say he's
the first president to have done it. That's what he wants in the history
books, and that's what these claims are all about. Let's just see if I'm
right.
Let's see how long it takes for there to be in the
mainstream media little stories analyzing these claims. Some fact check-type
stories such as you get in the Washington Post and the AP and other deep
analytical places, in places like the New York Times Sunday Magazine, the New
York Review of Books, places like the Brookings Institute, think tanks and so
forth. Deep, deep analysis! I mean, so much intellectual-speak that nobody can
follow it, keep up with it, translate it, understand it.
But the conclusion will be, "My God, Obama was
right!" That's what's being set up here. We have to be able to just
entirely... (interruption) It is two universes here. The real
universe is where you and I are, and there's this alternative, alternate
universe over here, which we don't understand. Well, no. We
understand it. What we don't understand is how so many people can buy
into it so readily.
Menendez Joins Colleagues in Introducing
Bill to Deny Resources to Castro’s Military& Security Services
Wednesday, June 3, 2015
WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Senator Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) today joined a group of Senators in introducing the “Cuban Military Transparency Act,” bipartisan legislation that would ensure any increase in resources to Cuba reach the Cuban people by prohibiting financial transactions with the Castro regime’s military and security services.
WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Senator Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) today joined a group of Senators in introducing the “Cuban Military Transparency Act,” bipartisan legislation that would ensure any increase in resources to Cuba reach the Cuban people by prohibiting financial transactions with the Castro regime’s military and security services.
Lead by Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), the bill’s co-sponsors also include:
Senators R Orrin Hatch (R-UT), Tom Cotton (R-AR), Ted Cruz (R-TX), Cory Gardner
(R-CO), David Vitter (R-LA) and Mark Kirk (R-IL).
“U.S. policy should be guided by one, single principle – supporting the
Cuban people’s aspirations for a democratic future,” Menendez said. “With the
Cuban government and armed forces controlling more than 80 percent of the
country’s economy, current efforts to expand commerce and travel to Cuba only
enrich the Castros’ military monopolies. The Cuban military uses these funds to
violate human rights and jail its opponents. This common sense legislation aims
to ensure the American public is not a blind accomplice to the Castro regime’s
repression.”
“It is not in the interest of the United States or the people of Cuba for
the U.S. to become a financier of the Castro regime’s brutality,” said Rubio.
“The Cuban Military Transparency Act would prevent U.S. dollars from getting
into the hands of the Cuban military and would demand accountability from the
Obama Administration regarding fugitives of American justice in Cuba, the
return of stolen and uncompensated property and the role of the Ministry of the
Revolutionary Armed Forces and the Ministry of the Interior in Cuba.”
“The United States must stand squarely on the side of the Cuban people and
take every possible action to weaken the brutal rule of the Castro regime,”
said Cotton. “This bill is one such step. It denies the Castro security
services hard currency and aims to hold the regime accountable for its past crimes
and misdeeds.”
“The Obama administration has already sent terrible signals to Fidel and
Raul Castro by relaxing economic sanctions on Cuba and removing their regime
from the State Sponsors of Terrorism List,” Cruz said. “It is now beholden on
Congress to intervene and ensure that this misguided policy does not result in
our facilitating the Castros’ more than fifty years of aggressive hostility
towards the United States and our allies. I commend Sen. Rubio for his work on
the Cuban Military Transparency Act, and I am proud to co-sponsor this
legislation that will prevent America from enabling Cuba’s odious security
apparatus. Congress should send a clear directive to the President: We will
stand with the Cuban people and promote freedom and prosperity, but we will not
assist the Communist regime that has oppressed them for so long.”
“For over 50 years, the Castro dictatorship has brutally repressed the
Cuban people,” said Gardner. “Despite President Obama’s historic change in
policy this year, the Cuban authorities continue to jail dissidents and abuse
the human rights of their citizens. This legislation would ensure that any
economic benefit gained by Cuba from our policy shift does not finance the
regime’s police state, but directly benefits the Cuban people.”
“The Castro’s regime of internal and external terror should never be funded
with American money,” Kirk said. “The U.S. policy toward Cuba should always
seek to hold the Castro regime fully accountable while supporting the Cuban
people's internationally recognized human rights and aspirations for freedom.”
The “Cuban
Military Transparency Act” would:
· Identify and prohibit
financial transactions with the Ministry of the Revolutionary Armed Forces, the
Ministry of the Interior, their sub-divisions and leadership;
· Amend the Department of
State’s Rewards for Justice Program to include the arrest or conviction of the
individuals responsible for the February 24th 1996 deadly attack on United
States aircraft;
· Direct the Attorney
General to coordinate with Interpol regarding the capture of U.S. fugitives in
Cuba;
· Direct the President to
provide reports on the role of the Ministry of the Revolutionary Armed Forces
and the Ministry of the Interior in Cuba and the return of property that has
been confiscated by the Government of Cuba; and
· Provide exemptions for
current “cash-in-advance” sale of agricultural commodities, medicine and
medical devices and remittances to family members and transactions related to
democracy promotion programs.

WHY
THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA “MUST” RETURN THE US. NAVAL BASE
(GITMO) TO CUBA…….
Is it now the right time and place in history for the Government of the
United States of America (USG) to return the US. Naval Base in Guantanamo, to
the Government of Cuba (GOC)?
First of all there is a Legal Bi-Lateral Treaty Binding both Nations to the
letter and spirit of the Law. This is a simple but profound question
to be answered by Legal Scholars’ minds giving knowledgeable advice to the
American People, to be decided “Only” by the Congress of the United States of America consenting or not about
this sensitive matter and then the President of the USA acting on it, approving
or vetoing it.
The USG must only return “GITMO” to a legitimate and sovereign democratically elected government by secret
and universal vote by all the Cuban People in the sland and abroad,
only, and only then, when the Nation
of Cuba is absolutely Free and Democratic his people united in close bond as one Nation, free of oppression and
universally sovereign in the eyes of all Free Nations, only then!
The time is not yet in the horizon. The time to return “GITMO” is not now! Simple as that. It will be a grave historical unforgivable
error and disservice to our present generation and generations to come, and
obviously, paramount to the Cuban People if the President of the USA wants to
impose now his will and mandate for political expediency or ideological
reasons.
The President of the USA must act accordingly to the legal framework under
the Constitution.
He cannot and should not act unilaterally in a legal matter of this
magnitude without Congressional Consent and the absolute support of his Nation.
This
sensitive diplomatic matter must not be solved by “Executive Order”

The time is not yet in the horizon. The time to return “GITMO” is not now! Simple as that. It will be a grave historical unforgivable
error and disservice to our present generation and generations to come, and
obviously, paramount to the Cuban People if the President of the USA wants to
impose now his will and mandate for political expediency or ideological
reasons.
The President of the USA must act accordingly to the legal framework under
the Constitution.
He cannot and should not act unilaterally in a legal matter of this
magnitude without Congressional Consent and the absolute support of his Nation.
This
sensitive diplomatic matter must not be solved by “Executive Order”
UN
METEORO LLAMADO MARCO.
El número de aspirantes a la postulación
por el Partido Republicano es el mayor jamás registrado desde que Abraham
Lincoln fue postulado en la Convención Nacional Republicana de 1860, en la
ciudad de Chicago. Ahora, casi dos docenas de candidatos republicanos de
distintas ideologías, religiones, fortuna personal, sexos y razas aspiran a
enfrentarse a Hillary Clinton, la candidata con mayores probabilidades de ser
postulada por el Partido Demócrata. Sin embargo, lo que cuenta para estos
aspirantes republicanos son las probabilidades que cada cual tenga de ser
postulado por su partido, así como de ser lo suficientemente atractivo a los
electores independientes--que son quienes decidirán las elecciones--como para
resultar electo en las presidenciales de 2016.
Dentro de esta literal sopa de letras han
destacado nombres de candidatos con cuantiosas fortunas personales, largas
trayectorias políticas y amplia experiencia en la administración de gobiernos
estatales. Hace un año muy pocos analistas y consultores políticos consideraban
al senador republicano por la Florida, Marco Rubio, como un aspirante con
probabilidades de resultar postulado por su partido. Marco no es un hombre
acaudalado, su trayectoria política ha sido relativamente breve y jamás ha
administrado una demarcación política o una empresa privada. Sus detractores
han llegado a endilgarle el "San Benito" de ser una versión cubana de
la elocuencia y la inexperiencia de Barack Obama. Han dicho incluso que su "cara
de bebé" le resta fuerza y credibilidad a sus aspiraciones presidenciales.
Dicho en términos simples: Marco Rubio ha
sido subestimado por detractores y por adversarios como un candidato
presidencial viable, algo que seguramente lo ha hecho feliz. Porque esta no es la
primera vez que Marco Rubio ha convertido el error de sus adversarios de
percibirlo como un "perdedor potencial" en un arma para salir
victorioso en campañas políticas. Para comprobarlo sólo hay que pasar revista a
la paliza que le propinó al ex gobernador floridano Charlie Crist durante la
campaña por un escaño senatorial en las parciales de 2010.
Crist lo tenía todo. Experiencia
administrativa, fondos de campaña, conocida imagen política, altos niveles de
popularidad y hasta el apoyo de la maquinaria del partido. Mientras los
adversarios de Marco lo subestimaron sus amigos le aconsejaron que no se
apurara y que esperara su "turno", porque tenía la juventud para
esperar. Pero este joven ha demostrado no estar dispuesto a esperar
"turnos" porque le sobran habilidades con las cuales crear las
condiciones para triunfos electorales inesperados y relámpagos. Como Don
Quijote contra los molinos, se lanzó a la arena política en una campaña
tripartita donde compitió contra Christ--que aspiró como independiente-- y el
demócrata Kendrick Meek. El resultado: Rubio 49, Crist 30 y Meek 20. Misión
cumplida y nació una estrella.
Esa estrella brilla ahora con luz propia en
el firmamento republicano y se propone proyectar su luz sobre unos Estados
Unidos embargados por las sombras de la ineptitud, la pusilanimidad y el
fanatismo de Barack Obama. En enero de este año, una encuesta conducida por
Zogby Analitics se ubicaba a Marco Rubio en tercer lugar entre los aspirantes
presidenciales republicanos con un nivel de aprobación de 13 por ciento,
superado únicamente por los acaudalados ex gobernadores Mitt Romney y Jeb Bush.
Abundando sobre encuestas, hace escasamente
una semana, según Real Clear Politics, Romney había desaparecido, Bush mantenía
un nivel de aprobación de 14.8 por ciento y Marco ocupaba un tercer lugar con
un 12.2 por ciento, superado únicamente por el Gobernador de Wisconsin, Scott
Walker, con un 13 por ciento. Y más allá de las encuestas, un analista político
de la perspicacia de Charles Krauthammer, de la Cadena Fox News, considera que,
en estos momentos, Marco Rubio es el aspirante con más probabilidades de ser
postulado por el Partido Republicano y de ganarle a Hillary Clinton. De hecho,
fuentes cercanas a esta señora afirman que Rubio es el candidato que la mantiene
despierta en sus noches de megalomanía y avaricia.
Por otra parte, ustedes y yo sabemos que
estos niveles de popularidad están sometidos a variaciones constantes y a veces
inexplicables. Que en los 17 meses que nos separan de las presidenciales de 2016,
seremos testigos de docenas de cambios en los niveles de popularidad de los
candidatos. Pero, como lo ha demostrado antes, Marco Rubio es un hombre con una
misión que no presta atención a las encuestas, no teme a los obstáculos, ni se
deja intimidar por los adversarios. En el 2010, le ganó la partida a Charlie
Crist. En estas presidenciales de 2016 le presentará batalla a sus adversarios,
incluyendo a su antiguo mentor Jeb Bush.
Todo indica además que va a competir para
ganar, no para mitigar el aburrimiento o satisfacer ansias de notoriedad como
hacen algunos de los que integran la larga y estrambótica lista de aspirantes
republicanos. Y yo creo que tiene grandes probabilidades de ganar porque Marco
Rubio despliega una inusual seguridad en mismo, no teme asumir riesgos, tiene
una habilidad especial para escoger sus temas de campaña, muestra una marcada
ecuanimidad para responder preguntas controversiales y no pierde tiempo en
recuperar el terreno perdido, tal como lo hizo en el tema de la inmigración.
Resulta asimismo revelador que, en sus
declaraciones de campaña, Marco no diga "si soy electo presidente"
sino "cuando sea electo presidente". Él lo da por hecho y anda de
prisa con su característica velocidad de meteoro. Porque sabe que la situación
es desesperada y que la tarea será difícil y prolongada. Que tendrá que
desenredar la madeja de errores y claudicaciones de un presidente que se ha
empecinado en transformar a la primera potencia del mundo en una inocua nación
tercermundista. Esto equivale nada menos que a dejar a merced de una manada de
hienas a un león al que le arrancaron las garras y los colmillos. En este caso,
las hienas se llaman Rusia, China, Irán, Corea del Norte, Cuba, Hezbollah,
ISIS, al Qaeda, Boko Haram y otras que harían la lista demasiado larga.
En Marco vemos, por otra parte, una especie
de simbiosis de John Kennedy y de Ronald Reagan, la frescura del primero y los
principios del segundo. Y como los dos un carisma extraordinario para
granjearse la simpatía del gran público norteamericano. Incluso antes de ser
electo, ha tenido la audacia de ofrecer una "Doctrina Rubio" sobre
política exterior. Ha dicho que la misma está basada en tres pilares que son:
Poderío Militar Norteamericano, Protección de la Economía Norteamericana en un
mundo globalizado y Claridad Moral a la hora de aplicarla. En este sentido ha
dicho:"El objetivo del poderío militar de EEUU es prevenir la guerra en
vez de promoverla". Despliega su orgullo de este país diciendo que:
"Los Estados Unidos son la primera potencia en la historia motivada por el
deseo de expandir la libertad en vez de por conquistar territorios".
Y quizás lo más emotivo para nosotros los
cubanos es que Marco Rubio se siente orgulloso de sus padres cubanos y que
quiere para Cuba la misma libertad que disfrutan los Estados Unidos y que él se
propone defender frente a los enemigos de este país. En unas declaraciones con
motivo del 20 de mayo, aniversario de la independencia de Cuba, Marco dijo:
"Nunca debemos de olvidar que la única forma de verdadera independencia
para el pueblo de Cuba consiste en un régimen de libertad y democracia, y
nosotros debemos de dedicar los esfuerzos de esta nación a ayudarlos a lograr
ese objetivo vital". Tomen nota los tiranos y aquellos que contribuyen a
prolongar su tiranía porque se les acaba el tiempo.

Cuba no está preparada
para la inversión, afirma multimillonario
Stephen
Ross, estadounidense y promotor inmobiliario dijo que no espera ver un cambio
real en Cuba
martes, junio 2, 2015 | CubaNet
Stephen Ross, multimillonario promotor
inmobiliario
Después
de un reciente viaje a Cuba, el multimillonario estadounidense y promotor
inmobiliario Stephen Ross, dijo el martes que el país no está muy abierto para
los negocios, mientras el gobierno de Castro esté en el poder.
“Se
oye mucho sobre Cuba. Se oye mucho acerca de las oportunidades que se tendía en
Cuba. No me pareció ver esa gran cantidad de grandes oportunidades. Fue como
retroceder en el tiempo“, dijo el presidente y fundador de la global
inmobiliaria The Related Companies el martes a CNBC.
El
presidente Barack Obama comenzó a normalizar las relaciones con Cuba a finales
del año pasado, por lo que es más fácil para los turistas estadounidenses
visitar el país comunista. El viernes, Estados Unidos sacó a Cuba de su lista
de estados patrocinadores del terrorismo.
Ross
dijo que no espera ver un cambio real en Cuba, siempre y cuando los líderes del
país se mantengan en el poder. Fidel Castro y su hermano Raúl, han mantenido el
control del país durante más de medio siglo.
Se
necesita un gobierno que realmente quiera el cambio, que realmente quiera
negocios, y que realmente quiera ver el crecimiento, y no tienen ningunos de
estos sentimientos en absoluto“, dijo Ross.
Ross,
nacido el 10 de mayo de 1940, en Detroit, Michigan, es dueño de equipos
estadounidenses de deportes, desarrollador de bienes raíces y filántropo. Es el
presidente y dueño mayoritario de The Related Companies, una firma global de
desarrollo inmobiliario que fundó en 1972. Related es mejor conocida por el
desarrollo del Time Warner Center, donde Ross actualmente vive y trabaja.
Según
la revista Forbes,
Ross tiene un patrimonio neto de $4.800 millones. Ross es también el principal
propietario de los Miami Dolphins y Sun Life Stadium.
Ross
es un gran benefactor de su alma mater, la Universidad de Michigan; a la que ha
hecho aportaciones de $313 millones, siendo el donante más grande en la
historia de la universidad.

Obama's trust-me approach falls flat with Democrats
Greg Nash
President Obama’s argument that Democrats should trust
his vision on trade is falling flat on Capitol Hill.
Democrats — even some of Obama’s closest allies — say
it’s not enough for the president to pronounce his trade agenda the most
progressive in history.
The lawmakers want assurances that the agreements
under negotiation, particularly a huge deal being finalized with Pacific Rim
nations, will protect U.S. jobs — assurances many say they simply haven’t
gotten.

“I take the president at his word that he believes … the argument he’s
making, but I think he’s wrong,” Rep. David Cicilline (D-R.I.) said
Wednesday.
“The analysis I’ve done comes to a very different
conclusion,” he added. “It’s clear that this will, in the long term, not result
in the growth of American jobs and an increase in wages.”
Rep. G.K. Butterfield (D-N.C.), head of the
Congressional Black Caucus, said he’s in talks with administration officials,
who have yet to convince him the president’s trade agenda would create jobs in
North Carolina.
“I’m still at the place I’ve always been: leaning no,”
Butterfield said Wednesday.
“There’s a difference between growing the economy and
helping American companies grow the bottom line, and creating jobs,” he added.
Trade promotion authority (TPA), also known as
fast-track, passed the Senate last month but faces a tougher road in the House.
Sponsored by Sens. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) and Ron Wyden
(D-Ore) and Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), the bill would grant Congress an
up-or-down vote on Obama’s trade deals, but deny lawmakers the power to amend
or filibuster those agreements. The additional power is seen as necessary to
Obama finalizing the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) — a 12-nation behemoth
that stands as a top priority in his second term.
The president has acknowledged the failures of trade
pacts of the past — particularly the North American Free Trade Agreement,
signed by former President Clinton. But he’s sought to reassure Congress that
he’s learned from those mistakes and is negotiating the “most progressive trade
deal in history.”
“When people say this trade deal is bad for working
families, they don’t know what they’re talking about,” Obama said in April. “My
entire presidency has been about working families.”
The White House pitch has paid some dividends, as
several on-the-fence House Democrats have come out in recent weeks behind
fast-track. Reps. Ami Bera (Calif.) and Rick Larsen (Wash.) are two such
backers, and Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.) become the latest supporter on Wednesday,
arguing that the TPP would be a boon for his export-heavy district.
“I’ll probably be very lonely in New England,” Himes
said by phone.
“But my district is a very strong exporting district.
… It’s got the possibility of increasing exports and growing jobs.”
But the vast majority of House Democrats oppose the
president’s trade agenda, naming a long list of concerns — from food safety to
the environment, currency manipulation to labor rights and the loss of U.S.
jobs.
They’re also accusing the administration of pushing
trade agreements benefiting corporations and other well-heeled interests, while
leaving working-class Americans out in the cold.
Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) characterized the TPP as
“a secret deal negotiated in back rooms and designed to help multinational
corporations reap trillions while Americans lose their jobs.”
Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.) said assertions that
fast-track will help the working class have “no accountability whatsoever.”
“There is no way as an elected official you can say
you are … fighting for working families and still vote for this kind of bill,”
he said.
Driving that point home, top Democrats on Wednesday
joined forces with labor unions and other TPA critics to trumpet a petition
with 2 million signatures opposing the legislation.
Democratic support will be crucial to the TPA’s
success, because GOP leaders are struggling to rally the votes to pass the
measure on their own.
Yet Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) on Wednesday
acknowledged in an interview on Fox News Radio’s “Kilmeade & Friends” that
he doesn’t have the votes to pass fast-track.
“I don’t think we’re quite there yet,” he said.
Republicans have talked about winning 200 votes for
fast-track from their conference, a high bar given many in the House GOP are
reflexively against voting to grant Obama additional powers.
If the GOP sees more than 50 of its members defect — a
real possibility — Democrats would need to provide about two dozen votes.
Only 16 Democrats are yes votes on The Hill’s Whip
List.
The White House is confident its outreach
strategy will succeed in swaying enough undecided Democrats for fast-track to pass.
“We’re not expecting to lose it,” press secretary Josh
Earnest said when asked about the House vote, while cautioning there is still
work to be done.
Obama is offering his full support to Democrats who
back him on trade and face blowback from unions and liberal groups in primary
elections.
“Those who are concerned about it, I think, do take a
lot of solace in knowing that they can count on the support of President Barack
Obama in a Democratic primary if they need it,” Earnest said, noting that
surveys show the president is “the most popular, influential and well-liked
figure in Democratic politics.”
But in a setback for the White House, two undecided
Democrats — Reps. John Carney (Del.) and Cedric Richmond (La.) — said this week
that they’re leaning no.
“I’ve got a whole set of criteria as it relates to
Delaware, and there are a number of things that they’re just not there yet on,”
Carney said.
Obama’s battle with Democrats over trade has been
intense, and there were further signs of the strain on Wednesday.
Rep. Jackie Speier (D-Calif.), who opposes fast-track,
argued on “The Bill Press Show” that the White House is taking the issue too
personally by promising to stand behind those who back Obama on trade.
“What it suggests to me is this is really personal for
the president,” she said. “He’s basically saying, ‘For the seven years that
you’ve kind of had my back and been with me, [it’s] irrelevant. Because I’m
making all my decisions now on TPP and TPA.’
“And I don’t think that’s a good message to be sending
to Democrats frankly, if you’re trying to ensure that some of them who are
waffling right now are going to stand with you,” she said.
Speier went on to say that Democrats don’t have great
feelings for Obama after his seven years in office.
Asked if Obama has a reservoir of goodwill with House
Democrats, she said: “I can’t say that he does.”
Obama Just Tossed Away His Last Card
On Iran’s Nukes
Israel will be left to carry out a strike, it will
have no option.
Via NY Post:
As the June 30
deadline for the Iran nuclear deal approaches, President Obama is putting all
his cards on the table — by announcing he is keeping no cards in his hand.
In an astonishing
interview with Israel’s Channel 2, the president declared that “the best way to
prevent Iran from having a nuclear weapon is a verifiable, tough, agreement.
“A military solution
will not fix it, even if the United States participates. It would temporarily
slow down an Iranian nuclear program, but it would not eliminate it.”
Why is this
astonishing? Because Obama is publicly eliminating any American possibility
that we will bomb Iran’s nuclear sites even if the deal in which he has
invested so much collapses.
Despite his
declaration at a Washington synagogue last week that “Iran must not, under any
circumstances, be allowed to get a nuclear weapon,” the president is in fact
making it very clear Iran will go nuclear, and with his implicit assent.
Period.
Note that he has
decided to eliminate the possibility of a military strike even though he has
already indicated his deal will allow Iran to go nuclear in 2028.

Una cubana, un poco gordita, esta maquillándose frente al espejo del baño de una discoteca.
De

cintura.
Viste
ajustados pantalones de cuero, se mira al espejo y dice antes de salir:
¡¡¡Gracias
Diet
Coke!!!
La cubana viendo de reojo queda paralizada,
lápiz labial sin llegar a los labios.
Unos minutos después entra una hermosa
morena, doblemente espectacular, mucho más
escultural que la chica anterior. Lleva un
estrecho vestido, se mira al espejo de arriba a
abajo y dice antes de marcharse:
¡¡¡Gracias Ultra Slim Fast!!!
La cubanita queda atónita con el tubo de rímel
en las manos a medio abrir.
Al poco rato entra una hermosa rubia, todavía más
bella que las dos anteriores: Despampanante, un
cuerpo que para el tráfico, piel suave y tersa, largas y bien
torneadas piernas. La muñeca se mira al espejo, observa su bien
formado trasero bajo el estrecho pantalón de seda
y murmura: ¡¡¡Gracias Special K!!!
Haciendo un gran esfuerzo, la cubana se recupera,
termina de maquillarse y se alista para salir. Al dar
una mirada final al espejo, exclama:
¡¡¡ ME CAGO EN TU MADRE, LA CARRETA!!
