MSNBC: White House may not be thrilled with chants of 'Viva Raul! Viva Obama!' at Cuban embassy opening http://t.co/hho7u28ecQ

Via the Free Beacon:
MSNBC reporter Luke Russert reported the chants at an event commemorating resumption of diplomatic relations between the United States and Cuba.
“Most of the protesters are actually in favor of this,” Russert reported, “and they’re shouting ‘Viva Raúl! Viva Obama!’ I’m sure he’s probably not thrilled to be intertwined with Raúl that directly.”
Russert thought the White House might not be thrilled to be associated with Raul Castro in that fashion?
Are you kidding?!
They are THRILLED.

@BlakeSeitz @instapundit And those were just the representatives of the Obama Administration.

@BlakeSeitz @JammieWF Are they shooting Che Guevara t-shirts out of solar powered air cannons?

@BlakeSeitz @NRO Castro has another victory over the US. Obama's Communist Father would be proud. Sad day for the Oppressed in Cuba

I'm sickened and furious that human rights-abusing Cuba gets a g-ddamn embassy under @BarackObama's corrupt watch. https://t.co/8TxhYtMWgy

@BlakeSeitz @NRO Are you sure you don't mean MSNBC is chanting "Viva Raul! Viva Obama!"?

Obama and his administration couldn’t be happier.
