No tourism. No trade, either, come to think of it.

My only regret is that I won't get to see it before it gets all Marriotted.

A good move in its own right, PLUS it puts the GOP in a tough spot.

And a good address to the nation -- but curiously, not one word about the impact on Major League Baseball!

@7 - I know, right?

@8 - But maybe now we can get a taste of authentic Cuban barbecue. I hear it's the best.

@7: I wouldn't worry. It will take a long time even before a Havana Hyatt-Regency.

About time. I really don't understand this nonsense. After all, the US has had friendly relationships with many dictatorships over the years - not to mention old enemies including Vietnam.

I've got to hand this one to Obama. Two years left and he hands off a potential trade agreement to the republican pieces of shit who think that their only goal in their political career is to make Obama look bad. Sorry ass losers those republicans. Day late and a dollar short.
