Raul Castro offers olive branch to....? Hillary? Obama? Edwards?....Gravel?

Interim Cuban President Raul Castro on Thursday again offered an 'olive branch' to the United States, but said no dialogue would be possible with Washington until after US President George W Bush leaves office . The November 2008 US presidential elections will bring Bush's 'erratic and dangerous' administration to an end, Castro said in a speech...

Personally, I'm up for it ending prior to November 2008, but beggars can't be choosers.

'The new (US) administration will have to decide if it wants to keep the absurd, illegal and failed policy against Cuba or whether it accepts the olive branch that we offered' on December 2, Raul Castro said, referring to statements made in a speech last year.

'If the new US authorities finally step aside from their arrogance and decide to talk in a civilized manner, they're welcome,' he said.

What, "go f*** yourself" isn't civilized enough for you?
