Right brand, size and smell
he will.
A Cuban one today would be a token of
good will too -
He's charming that guy - and he made some mistakes. Makes him our peer. I can like him for that.

I've always wanted a real Cuban cigar, time will tell but not holding breath.

Ol' pal - you seem to have a long memory and a good nose!
I wonder whether Bill can ever match that and whether Monika would enjoy those qualities too!

Everything - absolutely everything - is cheap down there. Some previous communist neighbours are in Cuba on holiday this Easter. I'll get the travel report. Perhaps you'd join me for a fortnight in Cuba - starting every morning with a cold beer and a big Havana on the porch, whilst our Marias prepare breakfast? Fidel is too tired to bother these days, he's no longer sure whether it matters anymore..so now is the time.
Your problem I guess is that you just can't fly directly.....what a stupid world.

Hopefully people in KY will have enough smarts to tell the philanderer to haul himself back to Harlem with the rest of his race baiting troublemakers.

I read most of the people employed work at the government owned buisnesses, alas, no private buisnesses exist. No thank you on going there.
But I do find it highly disturbing that we support communist China by the flooding of their lead-tainted products here in the U.S.
It's too bad we can't stop that flow and direct it to the country of Mexico to help it out but I reckon the rich buisnesses would not get their cheap/slave labor anymore.

That's not nice talking about our potential first lady like that.

Hillary is scheduled to be in Madisonville Saturday night for the annual Gov. Ruby Laffoon dinner.

Clinton staffer pointing to the Tonya Harding Option:

...a Democratic Party official, who asked for anonymity so as to speak candidly, who said we in the media are all missing the point of this Democratic fight.

What will she have to do to Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, in order to eke out her improbable victory?

She will have to "break his back," the official said. She will have to destroy Obama, make Obama completely unacceptable.

"Her securing the nomination is certainly possible - but it will require exercising the 'Tonya Harding option.'" the official said. "Is that really what we Democrats want?"

The Tonya Harding Option -- the first time I've heard it put that way.

It implies that Clinton is so set on ensuring that Obama doesn't get the nomination, not only is she willing to take extra-ruthless steps, but in the end neither she nor Obama win the gold.

It looks that way, meanwhile the Republicans are sitting back and watching the show without really doing anything offensive, not that I know of. The Republicans did let out that Obama's middle name is Hussien so they are stirring the pot somewhat but nothing like Hillary is doing.

Yes, she's going to use scorched earth tactics from here on out which will probably tip the scales toward McCain.

Charming details only. Guess that guy have been through a lot of tough days with no guarantees, even for the next day . Perhaps that made him a complete man - i.e. the opposite of the man at the helm today - and thus someone we all need moving into the White House....??
Oops I'm talking like a Republican now perhaps - was not my intention........

It seems the American mentality towards politics is short lived when it comes to something complicated like the Keating 5 but remember all the juicy details like Monika Lewinsky's cigar or the fact that Obama's middle name is Hussien.
