Right after some stuffy corporate meeting? Bad idea. Cuba doesn't undulate to your American Corporate Hegemonic ways. Take a step away from your corporatist rat race before you dip your toe in La Habana. You'll thank me later.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View PostI have a meeting at 230PM but it should be over by 330. omw!

The embargo needs to go quickly.

Rubio is already making the rounds voicing his opposition. Of course this will be partisan. It shouldn't be, but that is the nature of politics in America.Originally posted by frank ryan View PostI don't see this a partisan moment and expect there were plenty of GOP supporters for this.

Rubio's dad left Cuba before the revolution and Cruz' dad fought with Castro. I always thought their family spirited away in the middle of the night to escape Fidel.Originally posted by USUC View PostRubio is already making the rounds voicing his opposition.

With Mr Obama I do worry we give something for very little in return. However, unlike Hannity who will oppose it just because President Obama is involved, I will wait and hear the arguments. My inclination though is to be positive.Originally posted by USUC View PostRubio is already making the rounds voicing his opposition. Of course this will be partisan.

It isn't a corporate meeting. I am getting together with my salsa dancing team to discuss an upcoming competition.
