I only wish we could drop these people in Cuba, to witness what totalitarianism really is. Within a year, they would be risking their lives on a raft to get back to this country, and promptly kiss the ground (and become staunch Republicans...well maybe).
The Cubans in Florida are among the most staunchly pro-American (and pro-Republican) groups that there is, precisely because they truly understand, oftentimes from horrific personal experience, exactly what the Left does when it gains complete power. The bougeous coffehouse Left would be vastly educated by speaking to these oftentimes brave people.
