Anti-Cuba Diehards In The Minority

12:52 pm EST April 10th, 2009 | Uncategorized | 8 Comments

It seems nowadays every time an issue meets a poll, the dominant position in the Republican party is a fringe position. Funny how that operates.

Do Americans back a plan to relax some of the current restrictions on that island nation?

A CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll released Friday suggests the answer is yes. Nearly two thirds think the United States should lift its ban on travel by U.S. citizens to Cuba. And seven in ten think it’s time to re-establish diplomatic relations with that country.

The continued embargo versus Cuba hasn’t done a thing to disrupt Castro’s rule. All it does is screw over Cubans and make it hard for Cubans in America to support their families. The Cold War is long over, we won, time to move on.

    26%? Wasn’t that close to Bush’s approval rating when he left office?

    The embargo should be lifted immediately. This is roughly the equivalent of the Berlin Wall still being up.

    Come on, the embargo is working splendidly. Have you seen Castro lately? I don’t think he can take much more of it. In fact, I predict that once he hits age 90, he’ll be embargoed almost to the grave.

    As long as the plantation is run by a brown guy, I guess it’s OK.
