More Cuban-American obstruction

(Via TPMCafe)
Senator Menendez (D-NJ) really needs to do some soul searching:

Senate Majority Leader Reid "was forced to delay a pivotal vote on [the omnibus spending bill].... The most stinging defection: Reid's own senatorial campaign committee chairman, Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J), who told Democratic leaders that he'd be voting 'no' over his objections to the House bill's easing of the embargo against Cuba.

A Senator is holding up funding for the entire government over a House provision supporting his own President's position on Cuba.

On a side note, I think that the poster is serious about the "Cuba Lobby" being more powerful than the "Israel Lobby". I'd suggest that the dynamics are very similar (Being critical of Israel/Cuba equals being anti-Israel/Cuba equals being antisemetic/communist) even if the ways in which the power of each group is manifested. Either way, both lobbies seem to successfully promote foreign policies that are in opposition the interest of this country.
