The place where long speeches by fake ambassadors and non-binding long winded resolutions go to die…yes the OAS!

Cuba Readmitted To OAS “Without Conditions”
NESTOR IKEDA, AP

SAN PEDRO SULA, Honduras — The Organization of American States voted by acclamation on Wednesday to revoke the 1962 measure suspending communist Cuba, overturning a landmark of the Cold War in the hemisphere.

“The Cold War has ended this day in San Pedro Sula,” said Honduran President Manuel Zelaya immediately following the announcement. “We begin a new era of fraternity and tolerance.”

The action doesn’t mean Cuba will return to the 34-member body that helps coordinate policies and mediates disputes throughout the Americas.

Cuban officials have repeatedly insisted they have no interest in returning to an organization they consider a tool of the United States.

This organizations is so non-important that Sen. Menéndez people didn´t even bother with an English version of his reaction:

As the gringos get all drunk-happy celebrating Mexican independence day, Cinco de Mayo, AP reminds us that the other dozens of Latinos in the U.S. are all offended, because unlike Black people, we all hate each other and are terribly offended if we are mistaken for a Dominican, Colombian, Cuban, Salvadorean, Venezuelan, Puerto Rican, Guatemalan, Argentinian Mexican.

On May 5, Mexican dominance irks other Latinos

By MANUEL VALDES, AP

SEATTLE – With mariachis, tequila and parades, Cinco De Mayo will be celebrated this week in parties across the nation, kicking off a commemoration of Mexican heritage in the United States as a pseudo-holiday that has been adopted by the general population.

But for Dagoberto Reyes, a Salvadorian immigrant living in Los Angeles, May 5 is more a reminder of the dominance Mexican culture has in a country that is home to immigrants from many Latin American countries. His prime example: Los Angeles-area public schools.

“Our kids go to this school system, and the school system is more preoccupied with Mexico’s history, and not the rest of Latin America’s, much less El Salvador’s,” said Reyes, director of Casa de la Cultura, a Salvadorian community center. “They came back celebrating Cinco De Mayo. That holiday means nothing to us.” (In El Salvador we celebrate Pulgarcito Day)

More…

However, those in politics realize that even if they are Cuban and represent New Jersey, you will celebrate whatever group rules in numbers:

SENATOR MENENDEZ HONORS CONTRIBUTIONS OF MEXICAN AMERICANS IN CELEBRATION OF CINCO DE MAYO

Washington, DC – Today US Senator Robert Menendez (D-NJ), chairman of the Senate Democratic Hispanic Task Force a champion for issues faced by the Latino community, joined millions of Americans in celebrating Cinco de Mayo and the important contributions of Mexican-Americans to the United State. This holiday marks the Mexican army’s defeat over the French army in 1862 and is a symbol of cultural celebration and pride.

Our very own Bob Menendez, usurper of the Schumer throne, is absolutely and completely sure that there will be a Democrat landslide. Because, you know, everyone will remember that all the country’s evils are still W’s fault. That and people always pay attention to the Senate. Right? Anybody? zzzzzzzzz…

A Leader in the Senate Sees Sunny Skies for Democrats

WASHINGTON — To hear Senator Robert Menendez of New Jersey describe it, Democrats are going to sweep the table in the Senate races next year.

Mr. Menendez, who took over as head of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee from Senator Charles Schumer of New York, saw only sunny skies as he looked ahead to the first Senate elections that will take place in the post-Schumer era.

BECAUSE WE COULDN’T DO ANYTHING ABOUT WINDFALL TAXES FOR OIL COMPANIES, AND BECAUSE MANY OF US DEMOCRATS VOTED AGAINST HOUSING VOUCHERS FOR KATRINA VICTIMS IN ORDER TO SEND MORE MONEY TO IRAQ AND BECAUSE WE ARE BECOMING AN ATM MACHINE FOR MEXICO WHILE OUR OWN PEOPLE STRUGGLE, WE DECIDED TO TALK ABOUT SOMETHING COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT IN THE GRAND SCHEME OF THINGS SO WE CAN FEEL LIKE WE’RE DOING SOMETHING IMPORTANT…

Hilaria has found herself a hot Latin lover an endorser in the short bundle of Cuban joy that is Bob Menendez. He announced his campaigning in Nevada in support of Hill yesterday. And I mean, how could a Cuban man resist those golden locks?

Oh wait, there’s more exciting news than that!!

I think this should rather say: further proof that the French love people of color (and yes, Kerry really IS French).

La Bloguera adds: Kerry´s African-American wife, Teresa (yes from Mozambique) told her husband to do it.
