This time Cuba will be able to pay cash when they drill the Gulf oil Americans won't.

I am taking a perverse pleasure in watching the darling of the left piss off the Greens by drilling off the coast of Florida. I hope he comes up with about 10 billion barrels of oil. It would be fitting if he sold it to us at $75 a barrel.
We're such idiots sometimes.
Putin is reconstituting the Soviet Union, including helping its surviving allies, and undermining our interests wherever possible.
I keep telling you: never, never, never trust the Russians.
I heard that Cuba has an advanced order of Rifles from that factory that Chavez is building.

"Communism has only killed 100 million people. Putin wants to give it another chance!!!"
And I heard that Russia is opening another spying facility on Cuba, possibly the old Lourdes site.
It's inexcusable Castro's brutal communist dictatorship still exists, some 90 miles off of Key West.
Even by old USSR standards, Putin is arming new communist and anti-Western Islamic tyrants the old Kremlin crowd did not have access too, as with Iran.
In terms of Cuba, Premier Putin is cognizant Castro may be on his last Red leg, this he is making sure Russian missiles will be pointing at our southern flank.
The solution to numerous global problem which Putin is arming is remove Putin's expanding, totalitarian, KGB controlled, neo-Soviet régime, but that is like asking Western leaders to take action prior to the unthinkable. Forgetaboutit....
Putin is quickly turning the clock back.
The Russians also may be interested in resuming and expanding Cold War era espionage cooperation. The Soviet Union built the Lourdes electronic eavesdropping facility near Havana and used it to spy on U.S. military and technological secrets. It was closed by the Soviets following U.S. pressure in the 1990s, but could be recreated. ==
Accually it was closed by Russia latter then in 1990th. Th eresons was that the today communications go through the wire connections and syphered. So no need to eardropping the american cell phoners.
The group of six Democrats and four Republicans, led by William Delahunt, D-Massachusetts and Jeff Flake, R-Arizona is intent on easing some of those economic sanctions.
Delahunt told Bloomberg News that the Congress will make small changes next year by passing legislation easing both restrictions on family travel and financial transfers to Cuba.
"I don't think the embargo will change in 2007, but the Bush administration may pre-empt Congress and approve these other changes before we can,'' Bloomberg reported that Delahunt said. Earlier this month Raul proposed talks with the U.S. to end the trade embargo, but that offer was rejected by the U.S. State Department.

Anyone who has seen a hockey rink knows that it is easy to put one in and take it down...
I wonder what ever happened with those illegal SS-20s in Cuba.
