Thread: US to Ease Cuba Embargo and Sanctions

Jeb praised the trade of our 'spy' for three of theirs and the new policy of restoring relations with Cuba. I'll vote for anyone I think can beat Clinton, but I'd like to see Jeb given a chance. I wasn't too happy with 43, but I think Jeb is a different person and would make a good president.

Well, he's supposed to be the 'smart' one in the family and Bush Sr. had presidential aspirations for him not his little brother, but Jr turned out quite politically savvy and took the opportunity when it presented itself.

I think I saw him against the new policy, but wants to run for president on republican ticket after all so he has to pick some positions to the right of obama and clinton.

No - the story doesn't discuss barber shops in Cuba - it was a bit disappointing.

My question is why does he have bigfoot's hair brush, I thought he lived up in Canada?

I was expecting the comebacks from affronted Americans, but i thought that would have been obvious. Perhaps you haven't lost all of the Canadian in you

Wouldn't that be because of the anti-Castro lobby of Cuban exiles ?
