Spotted on a birthday card:
Cover: "The Democrats took your birthday cake"
Inside: "They sliced it up and gave it to others who don't have a birthday today."

Part Cuban American experience, part books, part movies, part life.
Lest you be misinformed....
Remember the great opportunities waiting out there for American businesses if only the embargo were lifted? Take a gander at Cuba's outstanding debt, that is the amount the bankrupt nation owes the rest of the world here.
Some highlights:
Venezuela
$11.367 billion
Spain
$3.200 billion
China
$3.170 billion
Japan
$2.775 billion
That's just the top 4 on the list provided by the Cuba Transition Project. What was that about extending credit to the regime?
