I thought there was a Cuba blockade
Bob Morris @ Jan 27th 2006 08:56 - Category: Unfiled ;
The Department of Agriculture & Industries International Trade office led a delegation of Alabama businesses who participated in Expo Cuba in early November.
Alabama companies signed contracts for over $25 million in products to be exported to Cuba. The International Trade office works continuously to improve exports from Alabama around the globe. Last year, Alabama saw an economic impact from trade with Cuba of over 300 million dollars.
So why does the US persist in enforcing the idiotic blockade of trade to Cuba when they themselves violate it?

Check out my personal blog

You can never have too many blogs…
My new personal blog, bobmorris.wordpress.com is for tech talk, interesting links, oddities, and other stuff that doesn’t fit here. I’m posting 1-3 items a day, so check it out!
WordPress.com provides free blogs and hosting, with a stripped down but quite functional version of the full Wordpress (which you can find at WordPress.org.)
They did have a sign-up form on their home page, but it appears to have vanished, so I’m not sure how you sign up. Geek luminaries like Scoble and Dave Winer now blog there.
This blog runs on WordPress, and the more I use it, the more impressed I am. Open source, lots of add-ons, great support forums, and amazingly detailed online help.
Kerry to filibuster?
Bob Morris @ Jan 27th 2006 07:41 - Category: Unfiled ;
Don’t hold your breath. He (like Al Gore) has a long and tiresome history of talking liberal and progressive but somehow being absent when it’s crunch time.
Or, in this case, in making progressive noises when it’s too late to make a difference. Had he backed a filibuster a month ago loudly and strongly, well, then he would have meant it. But to back it just before the vote when it doesn’t look like they have the votes anyway, is just empty posturing meant to shore up his liberal flank.
I hope I’m wrong.
Been a long time coming

Bush support weak as Americans favor new direction
A Bloomberg/Los Angeles Times poll taken this week as Bush prepares to deliver his annual State of the Union speech shows that the president wins the approval of only 43 percent of the public, a 7-point drop from a year ago. Three out of five say America is seriously off course, and by 62 to 31 percent those surveyed want to move in a different direction than the one Bush has set forth.
This is a stunning change from even just a year ago. The Left has the momentum now. The Right is reeling. Let’s keep up the pressure.
PS 76% believe White House should release Abramoff records.
