Who is on the Washington Post editorial board

[Mass]

I could see this type of article from others, but frankly, from the Post, this s shocking. I know they have always been very pro Cold War, but how can they be that backwards ?

Obama gives the Castro regime in Cuba an undeserved bailout

...


The administration says its move will transform relations with Latin America, but that is naive. Countries that previously demanded an end to U.S. sanctions on Cuba will not now look to Havana for reforms; instead, they will press the Obama administration not to sanction Venezuela. Mr. Obama says normalizing relations will allow the United States to be more effective in promoting political change in Cuba. That is contrary to U.S. experience with ? Communist regimes such as Vietnam, where normalization has led to no improvements on human rights in two decades. Moreover, nothing in Mr. Obama’s record of lukewarm and inconstant support for democratic change across the globe can give Ms. Sánchez and her fellow freedom fighters confidence in this promise.

The Vietnam outcome is what the Castros are counting on: a flood of U.S. tourists and business investment that will allow the regime to maintain its totalitarian system indefinitely. Mr. Obama may claim that he has dismantled a 50-year-old failed policy; what he has really done is give a 50-year-old failed regime a new lease on life.

1. Dunno, but now that Amazon owns it, expect more of this shit...

OK, it's not Amazon, but Bezos who owns it, and after seeing how he runs Amazon, his promises to be hands off news and editorial ring hollow.

The Post will be toast soon

3. It's an editorial board.

Adherence to singular political thought is guaranteed not to happen. As it should be. Celebrate diversity.
