It ****es me off to no end that my government, in its infinite wisdom,
and of course considering the influence of the Cuban exile community in
the swing state of Florida, does not permit me to travel to Cuba under
penalty of law. Where do these pipsqueak politicians get off telling me
where I can and can't go?

Did you actually _READ_ any of the site you yourself posted? Part of me
is tempted to simply call you a moron, but I don't _really_ think you
are, another part is tempted to make smart-assed remarks, and the
remaining part is just sad that you're spreading bad information even
with better information at your fingertips. So I'm simply asking, "Did
you actually _READ_ any of the site you posted?"

Well, the Travel Cuba USA site quotes what US citizens can legally go
to Cuba.

"Americans can travel to Cuba legally if you are a Cuban American,
politician, journalist or if you have a research project regarding
Cuba. Others including students, religious groups, and humanitarians
can apply for a license from the U.S. Treasury Department Office of
Foreign Assets Control (OFAC)"

I don't think that covers too many bone fishermen and tourists who
want a tan on the beach.
