Bush2 may be an idiot but the other is just a waffle. 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!" You ready for the Bluefish run? |
