Reply #11: Diaz Balart

"For the past 4 years in a row a bipartisan majority in Congress have sought to lift the trade and travel ban, for the past 4 years in a row the opportunity to do so has slipped through their fingers because of a lack of support from the American public.

Repuke rep Lincoln Diaz Balart uses his position on the rules commitee to get any bill 'tabled' (as in: not to be voted on) that is lifting or easing the sanctions against Cuba in any way. He uses that as an example of his 'leadership' when he speaks before S Fla crowds (of course this democratic 'leadership' he boasts of is subverting the will of the majority of the American people and their representatives). He wouldn't know democracy if it bit him on the ass. No one will mount a serious campaign against him - out of (well founded) fear.
