Wasn't nice to see Rubio, Ros-lehtinen, the Diaz-Balarts and the many others on TV. All of them living off the rhetoric of Cuba and the embargo speaking against what the president just announced. Isn't nice to see the hypocrisy shown again and again but these people. The real reason they were all on TV is not that they care or give a darn about Cuba or the Cuban people. The real reason is that they are scared to death about what they would talk about if any positive change would to happen in Cuba. It amazes me every single day the hypocrisy of these people. They all support trade with China, but yet they are against anything to do with Cuba. Even if changes mean positive life altering changes for the people in the island. Of course no one would hear about China, because after all who cares about China, even though they are a communist country. And of course, both Rubio and Ross-lehtinen had staff flown to China for vacationing. How ironic they would send their staff to another communist country but not Cuba. I can't stand these people.

In the abstract, I agree with you, BUT


How many Dictators would be willing to do what you suggest - not likely to happen - no more so than it will in Saudi Arabia, many countries in Africa, China, North Korea, and a whole host of others (think in terms of about 80% of the United Nations General Assembly )

What I'm looking for is action on the part of the Cuban government - as they did during the Carter and Clinton administrations when a thaw in relations was actively pursued - to screw it up.
They need a boogeyman to blame the sins of their failed, stupid policies.

Personally, after 35+ years in Miami, and living with and knowing many Cubans, I think its time to try another solution, because the current one is not working and has not for many years.

To complete my discussion of politics I despise the policies of Barack Obama, especially in the areas of health care and government encroachment and encouraging government dependency - I also despise the policies and the big mouth of Eric Holder. I could go on and on, but you get the idea.

However......

In 2 areas I agree w/ Barack Obama - we need to do something about illegal immigrants and Cuba - I respect the steps he is taken thus far and think they merit discussion vs the current nonsense from those who are in opposition.

OK I'll get off the political soapbox!
