BREAKING! US & Cuba reach agreement to establish full diplomatic relations

[joshcryer]

22. This is such a strange year for good stuff.

The cynic in me is dreading next year. Hopefully Obama can keep pulling the punches. Softening relations with Russia would be an awesome but unlikely event. But maybe he can come out for descheduling marijuana. I can't think of anything that he can really do other than marijuana descheduling, it would take 4-5 years for the policy to take effect, but he can get the ball rolling.

(And yes I know we can't credit him for everything good that's happened, a lot of it is due to demographic shifts, even yes, helping Cuba relations, but still.)
