President Obama Shakes Hands with Cuba's Communist Leader Raúl Castro

At the Nelson Mandela service in South Africa.

Don't let idiot leftists deceive you. It's a significant move, a gesture that bestows legitimacy on Cuba's Communist regime. Obama should have snubbed Castro.

At the New York Times, "Will Handshake With Castro Lead to Headache for Obama?," and "The Distraction of a Handshake in South Africa":

...the gesture was of special interest for Cuban exiles in the United States, and news organizations in Florida naturally took note. The Miami New Times curated a collection of reactions, while referring to a post on babalu, a Cuban exiles blog, that said Mr. Obama gave “credence and recognition to a vile and bloody dictatorial regime responsible for the murder of tens of thousands of innocent people.”
Yes, and compare Obama's shame to the dignity of Senator Ted Cruz, at Twitchy, "Sen. Ted Cruz walks out on Raúl Castro’s speech at Mandela memorial."
