Isn't that beyond ridiculous? What an arsehole!

He signs something against cuba but not before buying shittons of smokes. He redefines the word douchebag.

Who the hell didn't call him on that and vote it down.

Typical of a politician! To Hell with everyone else, as long as I get mine!

I hope this didn't violate any rules as I made a point not to mention of what party JFK belonged to.

Lackey? He sent the Press Secretary, and he told him to get 1000...Salinger went above and beyond!

That was my first thought too, brother. Pierre Salinger was hardly a lackey.


It seems some here wish to put the blame for the slide in domestic cigar sales on the embargo. Truth be known, the decline began after WWI, because the doughboys got hooked on those newfangled cigarettes during their service, and thus started the switch from cigars to cigs for the American smoking public. Furthermore, the vast majority of the cigars consumed before said decline were also produced domestically, from Tampa to the Northeast, and from coast-to-coast, whereas the Cuban share of the market was tiny . . . as with most other luxury items.

Three Points:

1. This happened over 40 years ago.
2. Technically, he was well within his rights to buy those cigars, as ANY citizen of the U.S. could have done the same thing at the same time.
3. He is dead.
