"Americans are barred from buying a Cuban cigar in other countries, even to smoke it outside the United States.
Oh, well, I guess that makes me a criminal."
Because I think the embargo is silly and fruitless, that's how. If we're to be consistent we'd have to embargo every nation with hostile intentions, communism, and slave labor.
We're not going to do that though because Walmart needs cheap shirts from Bangladesh and Radio Shack needs cheap electronics from China.
When we get consistent about this embargo business, then you can get sanctimonious about it with me.
