They Like Us, They Really Like Us

++Pope Francis led the global chorus of praise around Europe and Latin America,from Berlin to Buenos Aires, calling President Obama's decision "courageous" and "historic". Almost every Latin American leader from the right to even Maduro on the left hailed the decision as epic and transformational. The OAS, which has had to grapple with the Cuban issues for decades, tagged it "historic." Or some even used the awful term "game-changer."

++When was the last time you heard the United States spontaneously praised for a political act? Discount diplomatic functions and statements by allies.
