"As hard as we search, we can't find anyone who thinks the limitations Bush put on family travel and family remittances in 2004 were a good idea," a senior administration official tells ABC News.

I guess they didn't talk to any Cubans from South Florida who fled their country.

talked to a couple today about this and they are B/S

they said that if they were to go back and that is the aim for obama then they would be arrested and never be allowed to come back here

The final thing they said was that this shows hos out of touch obama is with the Cuban people in this country

“I guess they didn’t talk to any Cubans from South Florida who fled their country.”

Maybe they did. A large part of the Cuban community was none too happy with the change in travel requirements implemented by President Bush in 2004. It created more hardships for their families in Cuba and among other things, cut visits back from once a year to once every three years.
