Thanks Nancy, Harry...
That would be Pelosi, Reid and our erstwhile Democratic Congress on
their off shore drilling positions. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/oct/18/cuban-oil Morons. |

I hope one of the first things President Obama does is "normalize" our relationship with Cuba and lift any travel or trade restrictions. Some president has to have the balls to do this... It would take balls. With Florida consistently a battleground state, the Cuban vote looms large. Still, after years of trading with Vietnam, China, Russia, etc., the embargo does seem more than silly. Votes or oil? Castro must be laughing. http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortu...03/19/8402339/ index.htm |

That "revolution" was in 1957, 50+ years ago. Time to bury the hatchet. |

And I my own opinion is that florda Cubans really arn't interested dealing with Cuber in it's present state. That's why they wanted to come here to begin with. and most don't want to go back. Why would Fidel laugh? He wanted his Island country to be that way and he got it. Now if his brother would open up and be less agressive and be better on human rights, then I could see doing a bit of swapping. But until then, I can't see why the doors shouldn't stay locked. now, concerning the oil? I don't think it's the idea of having it fed directly to the US. Because it would go into the world pipeline anyhow. And if they start to sell oil I wonder how many of the Cuber'n citizens will see any benefit from it. Look at how Fox and Chavez have handled their countries oil. And I don't see anything different happening in Cuber. |
