Obama on Cuba: Time for Something New

PANAMA — President Obama and President Raúl Castro of Cuba met here Saturday, in the first face-to-face discussion between the leaders of the two countries in a half century. Seated beside Mr. Castro in a small room in the convention center downtown where the summit was being held, Mr. Obama called the event “an historic meeting.” The president cast his decision to seek normalized relations with Cuba after 50 years of estrangement a bid to reverse a failed policy. “It was time for us to try something new,” Mr. Obama said. “We are now in a position to move on a path toward the future.” He added: ”Over time, it is possible for us to turn the page and develop a new relationship between our two countries.” NYT

Obama's Speech on Syria Aug. 31

Action is not time sensitive, Obama said. But even though he's convinced striking Syria will help deter Syria's government from using chemical weapons in the future, he's made a second decision -- to seek authorization from Congress. The ickiest Congress ever might be an advantage in this situation, for those of us who don't want to see any military action.
Nice move by Obama to throw the ball in Congress's court. They were too busy playing in the sandbox. Now Obama's welcomed them to behave like adults and make a decision.

This kid clearly did not realize he was talking/rapping to the President of the U.S.  Obama's posture also looks strangely like GWB's.
