Jim, actually I think we agree very much on the Rep. Congress. But we may not agree on what is "right" (just making an assumption here). As for the exiles, they have the most egregious leadership since the mafia fell from its position of high power. Have you followed the discussion on this thread w/regard to their shenanigans? They are fascists Americans instead of a fascist Cuban. They expect all to kowtow to their wishes and they will bully any and all dissenters into submission. However, this is a very small group of exiles, the rest are basically law abiding citizens (except for those who swam from the gates of Cuban prisons). I am interested in seeing this group of "Americans" stripped of their ability to bully this country into a silly embargo of Cuba and any other political influence this group of crazies exercises on our lawmakers. Have you ever wondered why we don't embargo China when their record in Tieneman square alone is enough to make Castro look like Santa Clause? Why should we embargo Cuba? It's political pandering. On a positive note, the exile leadership lost a great deal of support from the rest of America because of the Elian kidnapping. The funny thing is if the embargo ends against the exile leadership?s wishes, those very leaders and the exiles will likely end up winner. Castro is the one who should be fearful of the embargo ending. But that is an entirely different topic and I've gone on enough. I haven't read many of your posts so I can't comment on your status as a right wing zealot. I don't think you fit the bill, but watch out that Zoltan doesn't infect your mind with moronic sewage. LOL.
