It all happened as a result of the recent executions of three young men, shot dead ''to prevent an American invasion'' -- as if Castro had become an Aztec priest who conjures fate by means of human sacrifices.
Suddenly, the mutiny was directed at García Márquez, the prior of Latin American literature. ''Where is García Márquez's signature, in the face of this limitless cruelty?'' everyone asked. The author first said that he repudiated the death penalty but then made clear his inalterable affection for the dictator.
Murderers also have friends, and García Márquez wasn't willing, like José Saramago, to break with the old tyrant just because of a handful of new victims and some fresh blood on the execution wall.
………………..How can someone justify the huge moral concession of traveling to Havana to support or show affection for the oldest of the Latin American executioners? Very simple: by rescuing one or two captives and, if possible, returning home with them in a suitcase and exhibiting them as a great diplomatic success.
Including 2 former demacratic presidents of the U.S.A. I lost all respect for Carter(I never respected Clinton in the first place) when he did this (went to Cuba and praised Castro, said it (Cuba) has a better health care system than the U.S
I'd say this is proof positive that demacrats are insane.
Remember during the Elian ordeal, how the 'RATS kept saying there's no difference between the USA and Cuba and that Elian would NOT BE ANY BETTER OFF IF HE STAYED HERE.?!I mean they (RATS) went on and on about how there was nothing good about us, that our country had NOTHING TO OFFER Elian, they tried to say that he would be be happier in Cuba (they insinuated that he would end up in a gang-because his family here was poor and they kept talking about the "wonderful" free education system and health care of Cuba, that Elian would go to college for free in Cuba-ugggh it makes me sick to remember all the BS they were trying to pass out). Then Clintoon's goons drug him to take him back there, one of his grandmothers asks for asylum but they turn her down and cover it up. The whole fact that his mother died trying to bring him here.
( I remember, they pulled him out of the water on Thanks Giving. He survives all that only to be dragged back there (Cuba )be brainwashed, and have his freedom taken away, because of a selfish, miserable-excuse-for-a-human-being president, along with his useless, worthless, political party, saw no benefit in the United States of America, Clinton and the 'RATS sent him back)
This is why demacrats are not fit to serve in government. They don't value our country(they want to tear up the Constitution, destroy Capitalism and go Socialist) They can't tell the difference between us and Cuba.
As for Elian, he helped save this nation, because what happened to him was the beginning of our people waking up and seeing the true nature of the left, So God Bless him, I hope Cuba can be freed and that he will come back here some day.
(This is number one on my list of outrages perpetrated by the demacratic party, primarly becuase they bullied a small child and returned him to a nightmare after he had already survived a nightmare at sea... its just unforgiveable :-(
Thank God President Bush is trying to help. Maybe with some well placed psych-ops and getting messages of freedom across to the Cuban people, it might work to get rid of Castro. Here's hoping... )
