I agree !!!!

But then we'll have to put up with rampant socialism, income taxes that
match the EU (70+%), .... maybe Ill even throw my medals across the
fence on the white house lawn.

Bush2 may be an idiot but the other is just a waffle.

Agreed, but we already got rid of those guys, Rich. In about 6 months we'll
finish the job, and then it's smooth sailing to La Habana.

If you look back at history for the past 50 years, Coca Cola, Levis and
rock and roll have been more effective at bringing down dictators than
any embargo.


Just for the record, you can buy Coke in Cuba along with a host of other US
products.
Of course if, as a US citizen, if you do that you are violating US law.

Talk about hypocrisy.

Bowing to experience.

As well you should.
Because your lack of any on the issue under discussion is glaringly apparent.

I gave up quite some time ago on the Republicrats, Kerry _or_ Bush, and I
would not even try to predict what an elected president would do in order to
get re-elected. No action by a candidate seeking office even raises an
eyebrow at our house.

In any case, and just getting back to sailboat cruising ever so briefly,
Cuba is definitely a place to know about, and the Treasury Department (in
the person of whoever sits in the Oval Office at the moment) is keeping us
out. From a cruising point of view, that's a real shame. Yet the policy
persists from administration to administration, just because Tio Fidel gave
the US the finger almost 45 years ago. Not one person moaned about US
yachts paying fees and going through the Panama Canal while Pizza Face
Noriega was dealing drugs.

As we say in Jersey, "Yo!"
