DeLay smoking cubans

This is what I am talking about: A photo showing Tom DeLay smoking a cuban cigar after he recently stated the embargo against Cuba should not be lifted.

“Every dime that finds its way into Cuba first finds its way into Fidel Castro’s blood-thirsty hands (…). American consumers will get their fine cigars and their cheap sugar, but at the cost of our national honor.” (Photo and quote: Time magazine)

Asked about the Majority Leader’s consumption of a Cuban cigar, his spokesman Dan Allen replied there has been “no change in our Cuban policy.”

You just can’t make this stuff up.
