Any argument for the embargo comes with, well why do you trade with China, and there is no answer they can give for that which justifies one and not the other.
Great for Obama to try this, hope its fully realized, any of us who have visited Cuba know how awesome these people are and how much of a struggle it is for them, screw these Florida Cubans living in luxury in comparison trying to stop this. For shame!

Hit the nail on the head right there - the embargo is Fidel and Rauls best friend. I just don't see a congress that approves to lift the embargo as long as the Castro brothers are in charge. Too much bad blood there.
