What the CIA really does all day

Mexico is furious at the U.S. government.

What is it now, you might ask.

It seems that a group of U.S. energy executives were at the Hotel Maria Isabel Sheraton in Mexico City to meet with a delegation of officials from Cuba. About oil.

Not only did the Bush administration know about it, they got on the phone to executives of Sheraton's parent company while the meeting was still going on and got the group expelled from the hotel. U.S. officials sternly explained that Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc., a U.S.-owned company, is prohibited by the U.S. embargo from doing business with Cuba or Cubans.

At least it explains why we haven't found Osama bin Laden. Our Predator drones are following guys from Houston.
