"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."

OK. It's clear to me now. You obey laws with which you agree, and disobey the rest. I get it. Well, good luck to you, and I hope you continue to avoid a felony conviction. Remember, with that, you'd lose your right to vote and your right to own firearms.

Over a cigar? Not worth the risk, IMO.

You're being obtuse, so I won't entertain this kind of trolling from here on. But there is a difference and you know it. Buying a Cuban cigar and murdering someone... morally equivalent? Please!

You don't have to pretend to be a dunce just to make a point that's not worth making.
