Maybe the election results, surely a rebuke of coastal elitism, made them reconsider.
You can bet they would be there to eulogize this cretin if HRC had won.

How dare you speak ill of the revolutionary social justice warrior. He's so peaceful

Maybe they'll send Chelsea. She's not an "official" representative, but it could help her establish bona fides for the future launch of Version 3.0 of the Clinton-Rodham brand.

My politics is a mix or fiscal conservative and social liberalism, so I get along with many of my friends who are clearly on one side or the other and can typically see their point of view. However, on this subject, I have NO IDEA how you can honestly see this turd as anything to admire. It just stuns me that these idiots revere him. The amount of ignorance that would allow a person to believe this is astonishing.

Those same folks wear Che shirts, but fail to realize he'd have killed them in a heartbeat if he could have.

They're the same type of people that think that radical Islam will be eliminated if we just give those poor people jobs.

Because he embodied the same policies that the left advocates here. Free healthcare, no guns, no religion, no free speech, the use of violence.

 

[Shalashaska]

Certainly took him long enough. I'm irked that he lived to see the end of the embargo, I wish we would've ended it the day after he died, to deny him the satisfaction

Obama has chosen to send "non-delgation delegation" to Castro's memorial service. WTF? Why the hell do we need to be sending anyone to "show respect"?

[FONT=&quot]Although Rhodes and DeLaurentis “will be representing the United States at the memorial service this evening,” Earnest said, Obama has withheld the official “delegation” designation in a symbolic show of disapproval toward the government in Havana.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]“This is an appropriate way to show respect, to participate in the events that are planned for this evening, while also acknowledging some of the differences that remain between our two countries,” Earnest said.[/FONT]

Another shameful reaction from Canadian PM (major pansy/feminist/SJW-type) Justin Trudeau

Awful and embarrassing.

Edit: NY Daily News called Castro an "unwavering champion of racial equality". Complete bullcrap.

Expect no better from Prime Minister Mangina.

Saw another story earlier today that he's getting into some hot water with a bit of pay-for-access going on. So... fingers crossed

Tradition, as well as a show of respect to the nation. Ideological differences don't prevent this. I think a muted delegation, in the mist, of a thaw is acceptable.

Not to everyone.

 

[Kutnupe14]

Not to everyone.

Because?

 

[jamil]

Because?

If the delegation went to the funeral to salute with a middle finger, that would be acceptable.

 

[KG1]

Because?

Oh IDK. You're a smart guy. I'm sure you could figure it out. Do you think a President elect Trump would send such a delegation?

Apparently, I'm not that smart. But I do know Cuba's history. If you think it's shouldn't be done, due to a 50+ year old grudge, then yeah, I guess there will be those who will hold your opinion. And since I think Trump is a petty person, I imagine that he would not have sent a representative.
