The Assassinated Press

In Cuba, Pinning Hopes on Obama, But With All That Miami Drug Money  
and CIA Snipers In Play Change Is Unlikely.
Many Islanders Expect Better Relationship With U.S. Under New  
President But Obama In His New Role as the Most Compromised  
Individual on Earth Is Unlikely to Risk Going Up Against Forces that  
Assassinated JFK.

HAVANA -- Vicente González says that although Barack Obama is no Karl  
Marx, he’s not even a Hugo Chavez or Olaf Palma -- "he is a  
capitalist and likely an imperialist" -- he has high hopes that the  
new president will eschew the billions in Miami drug money that fuels  
the Cuban-American lobby and AIPAC through the Mossad and begin to  
warm the relationship between Cuba and the United States, which  
remains frozen in a Cold War time warp as the U.S. continues its 50  
year attempt to starve and burn Cuba out. "Now that the capitalists  
have demonstrated to Americans that they are just a bunch of greedy  
shitmongers preying on everyone, it is time," the Havana barber said,  
perhaps unwittingly repeating the Obama slogan, "for a change. But  
will Obama see the light of socialism. Fuck no. Not while the Wall  
Street shitmongers have now openly and brazenly victimized the  
American people the way they normally do the rest of the planet have  
their snipers bearing down on the back of his skull. I also  
understand that the Great American Bald Lemming is still too stupid  
and drugged up on meth and agitprop to act in his own self-interest  
and revolt against the American kleptocracy which keeps those that  
have jobs in wage servitude. What cowards the timid little Yanquis  
are, afraid of the rich elite. What pussies."

The world of realists has no expectations of the incoming president,  
and many Cubans, who live on state salaries that average $20 a month  
yet receive free health care, education, subsidized utilities and  
housing, all this despite 50 years of Uncle Slimey waging low  
intensity conflict while blockading the country with embargos and  
sanctions seem to possess an outsized hope that Obama will at least  
cut some of the more violent, brutish and irrational bullshit.

All along Neptune Street, a chaotic, dusty, crowded avenue that runs  
through the heart of central Havana, people in ration-card shops,  
state-run cafeterias and crumbling hallways spoke relatively openly  
about their desire to see the new U.S. president do something --  
almost anything -- to help end the official hostilities between the  
two countries.

Alejandro Rodríguez, who repairs toasters for a living, just wants to  
visit his relatives in Miami without the Cuban American National  
Foundation insisting he be a drug mule first.

"This is a problem between governments beholding to rich fucks and  
governments of the people," he said. "Yet we suffer." He was turned  
down for a visa because he wouldn’t first fly to Barbados and mule  
two kilos of coke in a rolled up Oliver North poster, a method used  
by U.S government drug lords that renders the drugs free passage. “I  
really want to see my relatives,” Rodriguez said. “But that shit  
Oliver North. Besides the Yanquis will leave me twisting in the wind  
if local Miami authorities caught me and confiscated the drugs for  
their own local gangs. Fuck. According to my relatives in Miami, word  
is only the drug lords are hiring and with this latest looting of  
Wall Street and the U.S. Treasury drug use in the gringos’ capitalist  
utopia will quadruple in two years.

Raymundo Quirino, a sculptor, would not mind seeing a few cruise  
ships from the United States dock in Havana's harbor. "Good for  
business," he said. "And for the exchange of ideas, thoughts, dreams,  
you know imagination, something the U.S. kleptocracy lacks except  
when it comes to murder. All of their imaginative energy goes into  
the technologies of murder."

Yvonne Portuondo, a hairdresser, would like to see an end to the  
decades-long trade embargo, which restricts imports of food and  
medicine and forbids most Americans from traveling to Cuba. "The  
embargo should have nothing to do with letting people see their  
families," she said. “It would also be nice if those fucks in  
Washington would stop trying to starve us in exchange for bribes that  
the Miami drug lords give them.”
