President Obama to ease up on Cuba.

I sort of look at Cuba as the last relic of "the Cold War".

What have all of our Sanctions really accomplished. Castro has gone through no less than 9 US Presidents, and unless he died and we don't know about it, he is still above ground.

I say open up, and see what happens.

About time. Our policy had been like something out of the third grade. Time to act like adults.

So we lift our 54-year embargo against Cuba in return for - what? What did our clever Negotiator-In-Chief obtain this time? Bergdahl? Or did Castro offer as a "concession" to take Guantanamo off our hands so Odumbo can say he closed it?

The Cuban economy is about to collapse, and since it is a "communist" country, we have to bail it out. Obaminable is "playing" to his base again.

Odumbo has just pushed the Cuban exile vote solidly into the Republican column. What would it have cost to let the Castro and his brother die before normalizing relations? Besides, Panama and Honduras export some fine cigars.

I try to listen closely to his words when he makes announcements as this. I believe when politicians speak they often tell their intent but mask it in word choices.
One key word he used in his speech today was "migration" He only said it once and did not change his tone or emphasis in doing so. Still I think that it was an odd place in his speech to inject such a word. What was his purpose in doing so ? Are we soon to see a huge unprecedented welcome mat to Cubans in make shift rafts ?

The beaches, the women, the music, and the food....we should exploit the hell out of Cuba when we get down there. I can see a five story bordello with a casino on the roof, diving off the beach, and about 300 smiling senoritas. Overnights will cost about $500.



and I didn't forget Big Louie...
