Say What?

Frankly, I haven't paid much attention to the statements of the 10 Congressmen who went to Cuba this weekend once they got back. They were obviosly given the mushroom tour where they were kept in the dark and fed a bunch of bull shit and they seemed to relish in it.

BUT..........


From The Sun-Sentinel:

The delegation leader, Arizona Republican Jeff Flake, said the failure to achieve a meeting was "interpreted by us that the Cuban government is not ready to concede the new era or that a new era has begun." Nonetheless, he said, the dialogue had.As part of an effort to facilitate further talks between Washington and Havana, the delegation was in agreement a possible future deal on a prisoner swap could provide a way forward for further dialogue."We know there are fugitives from American justice here, and there are some in U.S. custody who are of interest to Cuba," Flake said. "Perhaps there is the basis of an agreement there."

What is he talking about? Who does he want to trade? "The Miami Five? I hope he doesn't mean sending Posada Carriles to Cuba in exchange for whatever dreg of American society is hiding out in Cuba. As a matter of fact, living in Cuba, is far worse punishemnt that being in jail here.

This Flake guy is aptly named.
