A parting gift to the Cuban dictator.

If you an uneducated Muslim male of military age, you are welcome here. But not if you are being oppressed in a Communist dictatorship.

This is such a good thing for the people of Cuba that it had to be kept a secret so they could not flee the country. before the deadline. Congrats, another great support for tyranny.

Obama administration ends special immigration policy for Cubans

The end of the "wet foot, dry foot" policy, which allowed any Cuban who reached U.S. soil to stay but returned any picked up at sea, is effective immediately. Cuban officials had sought the change for years.

The Department of Homeland Security also ended a parole program that allowed entry for Cuban medical professionals. That program was unpopular with Havana because it prompted doctors to leave, sapping the country's pooled of trained health workers.

The shift had been in the works for months. It was announced abruptly because advance warning might have inspired thousands more people to take to the seas between the Communist-ruled island and Florida in order to beat a deadline.
