The same is true of the MSM and countless "experts" and talking heads all over the place. I used to think we just hadn't done a good enough job of getting our message across, and no doubt we could have done better, but now I think the end result would have been essentially the same. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink.

The embargo has also turned America into Uncle Scapegoat for all that is inherently wrong with Cuba's failed economic system. There's nothing that (Fidel) Castro has loved more. It has enabled the government to, in effect, depict Cuba as 'at war' with the U.S. The rationale: 'No friendly country embargoes another friendly country.'" = What's this guys story ? Is he on the Castro pay roll ? or just misguided ? Alfredo Duran, a Bay of Pigs veteran and the former head of the Democratic Party of Florida:

For Cuba, on the other hand, tourism does...... Oh WHAT'S THE FREAKIN' POINT! of trying to REASON with these Castroite agents of influence!!!! Unreal.

Joe O'Neill and Carl Lindell come up from the toilet for some fresh air. Then they run back into the murk. The mental conflicts that they suffer over the Cuban-American success in this country is wondeful. Jealousy will keep them just where they need to be.
