I wondered how long it would be before they got something "hopping" in South America... here it is.
Did you see Jimmy Carter is going to Cuba?
Very interesting.
Yes he's trying to counter Bush's tough stance against a communist dictator. I wonder if Lott is still willing to fight against Castro? Lott vows to fight Cuba trade legislation****"I oppose both, and if I can find a way to kill them, I will," Lott said. The legislation is "not just about Cuba" but also about getting food and medicine to Libya, Iran and other countries "that are tyrannical, do horrible things to their people and in some cases are even a threat to world peace," he said.
...... The Clinton administration decided a year ago to allow sales of food and medicine to Iran, Libya and Sudan but was barred by law from easing the embargo on Cuba. Direct sales of medicine to Cuba have been allowed since 1992 under restrictions similar to those that would be imposed on food shipments under the House agreement: Cuba must pay cash for the goods or obtain credit from a third country. ****
