Cuba's ex-president also accuses Obama of showing signs of 'superficiality'

The former president appeared to be throwing a dose of cold water on growing expectations for improved bilateral relations � suggesting Obama had no right to dare suggest that Cuba make even small concessions. He also seemed to suggest too much was being made of Raul's comments about discussing "everything" with U.S. authorities.
Enormous influence
Fidel Castro's remarks put into doubt the true meaning of his brother's statements and raised questions about Cuba's position on detente with the United States. Although he surrendered the presidency to Raul in February 2008, he retains enormous influence and remains head of Cuba's Communist Party. |
Wait I don't understand. I thought it was all the fault of Bush. |

Fidel Castro doesn't get it, or perhaps he does and that's why he's upset.
Things are making progress not primarily because of Obama's skill, but because Castro is almost dead. |

I or II? What about Clinton? Or Reagan? Or Carter or Ford? Nixon, Johnson, or JFK? Heck, Eisenhower was president when Castro came to power! How could it only be Bush's fault? |
