#2 LOL, the first post where Joseph Mendiola didn't use mostly capital-letters!

But nonetheless, what do you all deem better - letting them rot away internally, or taking a wrecking ball to the problem and hoping that gringo-hating (I'm a banana, but would they know the difference or care?) doesn't actually slow the rot?

To Latin Americans, *all* Americans are gringos, including the diplomats of Hispanic descent that we send out there.

#5 If pouring money down the sinkhole that is Cuba constitutes a diplomatic victory for Senor Chavez, we should encourage many more such triumphs for him. Just because you don't believe in profit/loss statements doesn't mean you aren't rocketing to bankruptcy.

Once oil drops below $40/barrel, Hugo will be hanging from the nearest lamp post.

#9 Pretty easy to understand if you weren't thinking in a linerar 1990 SEC Fashion. Joesph M. ain't talking about Auburn, this is like RealPolitik, I'm gonna call it RealFootaball. Come to Columbia and buy a visor.
