We'll Be His Enemy, No Matter What

Raul Castro isn't feeling the hope and change, it seems:

Raul Castro gave the strongest signal yet his government's would-be honeymoon with the Obama administration is over, delivering a harshly worded speech Sunday charging that the White House endorses efforts to topple the island's communist system.

Is Raul unable to see that extended hand?

Sheesh. I wish we were seeking to topple his regime.

UPDATE: You lie! Raul's minions are certainly keeping up with the party line:

Cuba's foreign minister called President Barack Obama an "imperial and arrogant" liar Monday for his conduct at the U.N. climate conference, a reflection of the communist island's increasingly fiery verbal attacks on the U.S. government. ...

He singled out comments Obama made during a news conference in Copenhagen, when the U.S. president said no agreement had yet been reached but he was confident one would before the summit ended. "Obama knew he was lying, that he was deceiving public opinion," the foreign minister said.

Cuba's foreign minister: tea bagger or white supremacist militia member? You decide.
