May 18, 200719 yr Cuban cigars are available through many venues without getting them directly from Cuba or traveling there to pick them up. Therefore, IMO, one does not have to show outright support for Fidel and his regime to get them. Besides, many feel that the embargo is ridiculous as it has affected no change in the status quo there and the only ones hurt have been the people of the country. So . . . when we think a law is ridiculous we should ignore it? Have you seen the Ali thread?
May 18, 200719 yr So . . . when we think a law is ridiculous we should ignore it? Have you seen the Ali thread? Big, big difference between a cigar and draft evasion. Now if you want to prosecute everyone that possesses Cuban cigars then so be it.
May 19, 200719 yr Big, big difference between a cigar and draft evasion. Now if you want to prosecute everyone that possesses Cuban cigars then so be it. Is it illegal to possess a Cuba cigar in the US?
May 19, 200719 yr I have an idea for Moore...a couple of guest episodes on "Surviving Nugent." I have another idea for Moore --"here's a quater call someone who cares, Billary, Rosie or Teddy maybe " M. Moore is a legend in his own mind, another typical Hollyweird type that think that their opinions are more important than anyone else's :sleep: :sleep: :sleep: . Trouble is that there are plenty of poor saps "hero worship types" that buy into all of his crap. Somehow he (and some others) expect us to join in an believe their liberal bull just bc they promote it. Her is a hint, do your job! Make "fictional" movies and entertainment bc all but a sorry few in this country live in the real world.:irked: As for the Cigars, one may be able to get a better deal from Bill Clinton.. As for Moore and Nugent, I would love to see that or a debate on gun control/gun laws. Nugent would have him running with his fat tail tucked . And thats all I will have to say about that. :lol:
May 20, 200719 yr :thumb: Count me as one. Then Moore taking injured 9/11 victims to Cuba to seek medical care shouldn't be that big a deal to you, right?
May 20, 200719 yr How can you not like Fred Thompson? My sentiments exactly......he is a straight shooter...with a great head on his shoulders...and he knows how to speak...
May 20, 200719 yr So Thompson is an admirable guy because he openly flauts Federal law? Wow. I thought you conservative types were all about law and order ... You don't know that he BOUGHT them....that's the only issue.
May 20, 200719 yr For the record, I do like Fred Thompson, and have more than once said he would be one of few Republicans I would consider voting for.
May 21, 200719 yr Then Moore taking injured 9/11 victims to Cuba to seek medical care shouldn't be that big a deal to you, right? Not really. Its just a publicity stunt. I'm not sure why anyone would want to go to Cuba for medical treatment.

And thats all I will have to say about that. :lol: :thumb: Kinda like Bill Majer having him on his show several years ago with the PETA members...Nuge had them and Majer for dinner!!! Moore and company take advantage of their 1st amendment rights..what they need to wake up an realize is that they live in a country where they actually HAVE them..and respect it!!!
May 21, 200719 yr Not really. Its just a publicity stunt. I'm not sure why anyone would want to go to Cuba for medical treatment.The attempt to compare Cuban medical availability to the US is nothing more than providing Fidel with a propaganda opportunity. As a Cuban friend of mine said, after hearing about this, "Is Michael Moore bringing all of the sheets, soap, and food required for patients? I hope so, because those things are not provided by the State Hospital."
May 22, 200719 yr I wish some Col in real life would re-say this and send it to Michael Moore, and the pansies that support him: Jack Nicholson (Col. Jessup):Son, we live in a world that has walls. And those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: That Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives...You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall...you need me me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty...we use these words as the backbone to a life spent defending something. You use 'em as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it. I'd prefer you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a darn what you think you're entitled to...
