I don't understand the title. Why "biting the hand that feeds you" when CNS was told that the President intends to bring up Mr. Reich's nomination in Jan. for Senate confirmation? Is someone now claiming that President Bush isn't anti-Castro, anti-Communism? I resent the attacks when President Bush's actions and comments have already established his position on both. It seems that every pol and pundit in America is "demanding" that our CIC prove himself daily on one of a million important issues while the press is treating our public air waves as an extension of the DNC campaign headquarters. How many countries, tyrants, terrorists, Democrats and Republican opponents are working to undermine and/or destroy our President?

Our heroes - seduced by those all too willing to exploit them by pointing out "injustices", perceived slights and imperfections - are being toppled. From the 911 firefighters who spent time with Terry McAuliffe and the DNC-Union heads in Las Vegas shortly after 911 and suddenly announced that they - to a man - no longer supported our President because they discovered suddenly that their two-way radios were faulty on 911 (a claim later proved to be false), or our Veterans, to our seniors, to "human rights" workers, and the thousands of special interest groups that refused after 9-11 to put the country ahead of their own needs....our one-time heroes have fallen...one more Communist goal fulfilled.

There are stirrings in the community down here, and some talk of abandonment bu the Bush administration.

"President Bush decides to suspend Title III provision of Helms-Burton sanctions law for a six month period, effective August 1, 2001 - if not suspended, Title III would allow U.S. citizens to sue those trafficking in property confiscated by Fidel Castro's regime in Cuba - since it's passage in 1996, Title III has been waived every six months, primarily to avoid a confrontation with the EU."

Bush is continuing Clinton's policy.

This law was passed as a reaction to the shootdown of the Brothers to the Rescue pilots.

There is increasing, open travel to Cuba, laws are not being enforced there.

Business with Fidel is growing, in spite of promises of no change in policy without changes in Cuba.

The RNC is advocating lifting the embargo.

Bad things my friend. People who fought (some literally) for Bush are starting to feel betrayed.
