So the Bush administration is exploiting a race condition with Cuba?

The situation with Cuba has less to do with race or government philosophy 
and more with a bunch of people who lost cash and property from the 
revolution.  (And this pissing match has been going on for longer than 
most of the people reading this list have been alive.)  It is not going to 
be settled by rational argument becausethe people keeping it going are not 
rational to begin with.  (Yes, the leaders of my country are totally 
batshit insane.  Castro is not much better, IMHO.)

If every law was applied and we lived by the lowest legal common 
denominator, nothing cold happen that did not violate the law.
