Quotes From Mini-e #3


Here are some quotes from the commie coca "We are proud to be coca producers; you know that coca leaf is not cocaine," of Boliva in his trip to Cuba. While reading the quotes and thinking to myself "Yeah right, it's just the opposite of what you say." At that moment I hear in the background: "This is Thing 1 and Thing 2, they do the opposite of what you say" from the movie "Cat In The Hat." So with out further adieu, I present quotes from Thing 2:

Morales said that the United States "constantly accuses me of everything: being a drug trafficker, coca leaf mafia man and a terrorist," questioned by reporters late Friday.

"We are proud to be coca producers; you know that coca leaf is not cocaine," stressed Morales, here for a 24-hour visit and meetings with communist President Fidel Castro.

"There will not be zero coca, but there will be zero cocaine," Morales pledged Saturday. Coca is the raw material from which cocaine is processed. But it has been used in traditional medicine and religious ceremonies in his country for centuries.

"If the (United States) wants bilateral, diplomatic and trade relations, they should have them -- but without submission, subordination, conditions or blackmail," Morales warned.

I have never had good relations with the US government -- but I have with the people of the United States," he added.

"Before they think about a coup, the US government had better think about withdrawing their troops from Iraq and closing their military bases in South America," Morales said.

Dozens of Cubans Make Landfall


From the Associated Press:

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. - Dozens of Cuban migrants, including at least nine children, came ashore Friday throughout South Florida, officials said.
A total of 87 Cuban migrants reached Florida, said Steve McDonald, spokesman for the U.S. Border Patrol. Two groups totaling 37 people came ashore in Marathon, 28 came to Miami Beach, three reached Key Biscayne and 19 made it to the Dry Tortugas at the tip of the Florida Keys.
The group that came ashore in Miami Beach consisted of 12 men, seven women and nine children — the youngest 6 years old, said Arley Flaherty, a Miami Beach police spokeswoman.
"For the most part they looked fine, just a little dehydrated or cold," Flaherty said. "Nobody had identification with them. They had relatives' phone numbers with them, some were in shorts. The kids were in long shirts, shoes or sandals."
The migrants were taken to immigration offices, where their cases will be processed, Flaherty said.
The Miami Beach group said they left Cuba on Wednesday night and that a good Samaritan picked them up at sea after their makeshift boat ran into trouble, Flaherty said.
McDonald said authorities were investigating whether the boat actually had trouble or if the story was concocted to deflect attention from suspected smugglers.
According to the Miami-based Florida Immigrant Advocacy Center, migrants have been smuggled into Florida in recent years aboard sophisticated speedboats rather than arriving on rickety, homemade craft.
The Coast Guard said the number of captured migrants spiked to 2,834 in 2005 from 1,499 the previous year.
Under the so-called wet-foot, dry-foot policy, Cubans who reach U.S. soil are usually allowed to stay, while most picked up at sea are sent home.
In a separate incident Friday, authorities took into custody two alleged Cuban smugglers, along with four migrants from Ecuador and two from Peru, who were found on a boat in the waters just off Miami Beach, McDonald said.

Mini-me #3 In Cuba

Mini-me #3 arrived in Cuba today on his first official visit abroad. The dictator salivating on another country spiraling down the path of communism. For those who still do not believe that Morales is not a communist, and that their is nothing to the connection with Cuba:

"The presence of comrade Morales in Cuba fills our people with satisfaction and is an important stimulus to strengthen friendship and co-operation between the Cuban government and the future Bolivian government,"

"The Cubans are going to offer massive medical and educational assistance, like they did with Venezuela when Hugo Chavez became president," a Latin American diplomat predicted.

-The propaganda machine is in full spin mode. The pacts will be done in blood and the media will eat it all up with the familiar code words(Free Medical and Free Education). I suggest they take the commie 101 course:

21st Century Socialism-(We need to get back to the Old style of Lenin and Mao)

Nationalization-(steal all the banks, business, and property)

We are for the poor-(Everyone will be poor, except Castro, Chavez, Morales, and Government elite)

President Castro-(Dictator Castro who has never been elected to office)

The Revolution-( The term they continually use to justify all the atrocities)

The Motorcycle Diaries-( I am rich kid bumming through South America and I really did not know how to ride a motorcycle)

Socialism-( As the late Guillermo Cabrera stated: "The price of socialism is slavery, brutality, and death-all in the name of man.")

Free Healthcare-(Healthcare for the elite government and tourist with$$$$, not everyone else)

Letter To The Pope

Everyone I know this is reaching a bit, but since the vatican has mentioned that the Pope might visit Cuba, a mention of the political prisoners and the " real" situation in Cuba is merited.


Santo Padre,

This is a letter to wish you a Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, that God will bring you many blessings, and your help in regards to Cuba and it's political prisoners. Dr. Elias Biscet is holding on to his dear life in prison. His crime: He spoke out against abortion and the communist regime in Cuba. His prison term: 25 years! Most of the international and Christian community have no clue or have ignored this struggle. Here is an excerpt from Armando Valledares, who spent 22 years in prison :

"Valladares vividly expressed how much it meant the international reaction to the Cuban political martyrdom: "During those years, with the purpose of forcing us to abandon our religious beliefs and to demoralize us, the Cuban Communist indoctrinators repeatedly used the statements made by some representatives of the American Christian churches. Every time a pamphlet was published in U.S., every time a clergyman would write an article in support of Castro’s dictatorship, a translation would be given to us, and that was far worse for the Christian political prisoners than the beatings or the hunger. Incomprehensible to us, while we waited for the embrace of solidarity from our brothers in Christ, those who were embraced were our tormentors."

Please we are asking for your support either moral, spiritual, or anything that will save Dr. Biscet's life and that of all political prisoners being held in Cuba.

(HAVANA/CUBA/December 28/Lux-Info-Press/ Puenteinfocubamiami.org) -

Poor health and dreadful prison conditions of the Cuban prisoner of conscience Francisco Chaviano González compelled his wife's to call for an international intercession for her husband's release from prison.

Mini-Me #3 To Visit Cuber

I had someone ask me the other day: "Do you think Evo Morales is a communist?" Hello, anybody home! While he is not getting fooled by radio pranksters, he first trip away is to : Cuber! Just in time for the 47th anniversary of the revolution on January 1. No symbolism or connection here my friends.

Morales said he will meet with Cuban President Fidel Castro on his first trip abroad since winning the Bolivian presidential elections this month. He didn't say how long he would remain in Cuba, which marks the 47th anniversary of its revolution on Jan. 1.

or


Morales has repeatedly declared himself an admirer of Cuba's Castro, and has referred to himself as the ''younger brother'' of Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

Fr. Frank Pavone,

First of all I want to thank you for your passion and endless work concerning the unborn. As a Catholic I support you and the cause 100%. The reason for this letter is that we need your help and prayers. A political prisoner in Cuba, Dr. Elias Biscet is holding on to his dear life in prison. His crime: He spoke out against abortion and the communist regime in Cuba. His prison term: 25 years! Most of the international and Christian community have no clue or have ignored this struggle. Here is an excerpt from Armando Valledares, who spent 22 years in prison :

"Valladares vividly expressed how much it meant the international reaction to the Cuban political martyrdom: "During those years, with the purpose of forcing us to abandon our religious beliefs and to demoralize us, the Cuban Communist indoctrinators repeatedly used the statements made by some representatives of the American Christian churches.

Thanks and God Bless!



- I urge you my fellow bloggers to write and spread the word. Even in the christian community their is widespread ignorance concerning Dr. Biscet and
Cuba.

http://www.priestsforlife.org/index.html

mail@priestsforlife.org

What Kind Of Rationale Is This?

Why doesn’t the United States want Cuba baseball players to participate in the upcoming World Baseball Championships?Is it because of Cuba’s Communist economic and political policies or could it be because of color confrontation?

- Again the ignorant have no clue about the real situation in Cuba. They always use divisiveness and color, but in the same breath they have no idea of Dr. Biscet and the apartheid of the Cuban people

Let’s reexamine the politics.
If you’re a communist Cuban and a great athlete, you are more than likely a person of color and you are not welcome to play sports in championships that include games played in America or in American controlled territories like Puerto Rico.

-No, let's reexamine why you have always stood silent concerning all the atrocities, executions, tortures, and political prisoners who happen to be both black and white and not communist?


Those same political pundits were quiet as a mouse when the Cuban government responded and said that any funds that Cuba received from playing World Championship Baseball would be donated to kelp the victims of Hurricane Katrina on America’s Gulf Coast.

-Funds that the dictator will not use with his own people. One of the wealthiest person on the planet, yet the people are on ration books, not allowed the freedom to travel anywhere they would like and one of the poorest countries? What about the recent hurricane in Cuba? Look at the destruction(wait a minute, this regime does not have freedom of the press!)


Regardless of how the baseball controversy turns out, African Americans should know that Cuba not only desires to help the African American victims of hurricanes and the subsequent governmental neglect, Cuba has been a big help to Africans on the continent of Africa. If you didn’t know, the country of Cuba sent soldiers to assist African countries in their fight for independence and their fight against apartheid. Cubans died so many Africans could be free.

-Tune up on your history and reevaluate your commie propaganda, the spread of the evil ideology of Marxism and absolute power is the sole purpose of the "dictator' not the people of Cuba.

Merry Christmas

To all my family, friends, readers, and fellow bloggers: "Merry Christmas." To the people of Cuba: that all free nations of the world will finally recognize that it's time for FREEDOM and JUSTICE, and finally "FELIZ NAVIDAD"

The Dictator calls Bush a "Fool"

The dictator rambles:

He is very much a fool," the Cuban president said of Bush. "He doesn't know who the Cuban baseball players are, or that they are Olympic and world champions. If he knew, he would know something about this country's government."

Who is the fool? The leader of free, democratically elected government, or the never been elected dictator who has enslaved the Cuban people for over 40 years? The dictator prides himself on having the elite "slave for labor" amatuer
baseball team. The World Baseball Classic is a professional endevor not an amatuer one. The dictator is the fool!!!

Propaganda Ploy

"Cuba said on Thursday it would donate its revenues from a world baseball tournament to Hurricane Katrina victims if the Bush administration reverses a controversial decision to bar Cuba's participation. "

Isn't that nice, but their is a problem. What has the dictator done for the hurricane victims in Cuba? What the heck has he done for the people of Cuba for over 40 years? Nothing! Give cash away, but his slaves are still on ration books. $20million dollar deal here, 30 million dollar deal there, give doctors to Venezuela, give cash away to play baseball. In return we have one of the most repressive regimes in this hemisphere, no Cubans allowed in hotels and beaches that are frequented by tourist, political prisoners, no freedom of speech, knocking down of churches, people risking their lives to leave this hell hole, and one dictator(never been elected) in absolute power for over 40 years.

Familiar Bullying Tactics

From Reuters:


HAVANA (Reuters) - Cuba branded the country's best-known dissidents on Wednesday as U.S. agents, using taped phone conversations, secret video footage and guilt by association during a televised broadcast to portray them as traitors. Longtime activists Osvaldo Paya, Martha Beatriz Roque and female relatives of already imprisoned government opponents, known as "the Ladies in White," bore the brunt of a 90-minute state-run television show during which official journalists used what appeared to be intelligence service materials in an attempt to discredit them.
"They are a mix of parasites, habitual vagabonds, chameleons and ruffians, lacking charisma and mass support, that serve as an instrument of the empire," show moderator Randy Alonso said of the dissidents.
The show, called the round table, features local journalists and officials presenting the government's positions on various topics.
"This could be setting the stage for more imprisonments and repression but at the same time Cubans learned who we are," Roque told Reuters in a telephone interview.
Cuba's small opposition movement is rarely mentioned by the official and only media in the country and regularly branded by officials as in the hire of the United States.
Wednesday's broadcast was unusually virulent and followed a Tuesday broadcast that accused U.S. mission chief Michael Parmly of using the dissidents to carry out the Bush administration's declared goal of ousting President Fidel Castro'
The United States and Cuba, bitter foes since Castro led a revolution to power in 1959, do not have diplomatic relations but maintain lower-level Interests Sections in each others' capitals.
Parmly succeeded James Cason, now U.S. ambassador to Paraguay, whose confrontational style and open support for dissidents was given as the reason for the imprisonment of 75 dissidents two years ago on charges of working with Washington to overthrow the government.
TAPED PHONE CALLS
"Look, if this costs the government a Yankee invasion its all the same to me," Roque was heard saying in an apparently taped phone conversation on Wednesday's show, after which video was shown of her purchasing goods in exclusive hard-currency stores.
Roque, who leads the Assembly for the Promotion of Civil Society, an umbrella group that held an unprecedented opposition gathering on May 20 in Havana, was portrayed as strongly supporting U.S.
President George W. Bush' and receiving money from Cuban exiles in the United States, which the show branded "Miami terrorists," and squandering it on herself.
Paya, whose Varela Project petition drive garnered thousands of signatures for a referendum on Communist rule a few years ago, was branded "an impudent conspirator" as photos were shown of him meeting in an apparently clandestine way with persons linked to the U.S. Agency for International Development masquerading as tourists.
"This man has participated in clandestine activities promoted by Parmly and the Interests Section," said journalist Arlene Rodriguez, charging Paya was paid to coordinate courses to train future Cuban leaders.

Exile Team Denied In World Baseball Classic

The idea of a Cuban exile team came to a halt:

"the commissioner's office of Major League Baseball, in agreement with the Baseball International Federation and the MLB Players' Association, said that they will not allow any independent teams to play in the World Classic. "

Livan Hernandez to play for Puerto Rico in the World Baseball Classic? What do you think about this my fellow brethren?

Evo Morales Fooled

Real Cuba has the scoop on how mini-me #3 was fooled in believing that he was talking to the Spanish Prime Minister. OOPS! he let the cat out of the bag on how he wants to form an alliance with Castro and Chavez(Like we did not know this!). Listen to the audio.

U.S. Cuba Energy Summit

Summit will take place on February2-4, 2006 in Mexico City. Here is the agenda. I believe they left out certain topics: Political Prisoners, No Freedom, Wet/Dry Foot Policy, Apartheid of the Cuban people, shall we go on.............

Here is a list of "micromanagers" who attended previous "Business" summits:

Fidel Castro, President, Councils of State and Ministers
Carlos Lage, Vice President, Council of State
Ricardo Alarcon, President, National Assembly
Raul de la Nuez, Minister of Foreign Trade
Marta Lomas, Minister of Foreign Investment
Francisco Soberon, President, Cuba Central Bank

Miguel Figueras, Sr. Advisor to Minister of Tourism

Dealing With The Devil Part IV

House Speaker John Richardson touting how: "he was part of the discussion with President Fidel Castro and that meeting was crucial to winning what the administration says is a $20 million export deal for Maine."

He goes on: "You've got to understand, Fidel Castro micromanages that economy and a failure to meet with him is a failure to gain a greater amount of export (dollars)," Richardson said. "He's sharp as a tack. He has a full grasp of what's going on in the agriculture field, and he definitely calls the shots."

-Micromanages? Of course you dumbshit, he micromanages everything in Cuba. Sharp as a tack or do you mean that he whacks off any type of protest or dissent? He sure calls the shots come mierda, just look at all those who have been executed.(I am sure this was never mentioned in your meeting with the micromanager)

Now this gets better:

During the governor's short stay, the delegation got a "surprise" visit from Castro, Richardson said. News of that meeting sparked strong criticism from Republican legislative leaders, who said the meeting "lends legitimacy to a brutal communist ruler with an appalling record of human rights violations."Richardson said the talks were about agricultural products and people."We were talking about our likes and similarities," he said. "We're a poor, very proud but poor state; we hold our children in high esteem; education is a big issue — in Cuba and in Maine. There are a lot of similarities."Castro specifically wanted to know about Maine dairy cattle, Richardson said, because Maine farmers export dairy cattle to Cuba. There also were discussions about apples, potatoes, lumber and Maine seafood."It was all on the table," Richardson said.

- " Surprise" visit, no everything is planned, calculated, and spied on with vigorous detail. I guess you'd say any bullshit for a $20 million dollar deal.

Earthquake in Louisiana

A minor earthquake with a magnitude of 3.0 occurred yesterday in Louisiana. Before the enemy starts with the propaganda, this is not a direct result of the evils of capitalism, global warming, "Operation Rocky," or Cuban exiles.

Global Exchange Sending Reality Tours to Cuba

Reality? I believe it's just a political statement. This quote clearly indentifies their motive:

Global Exchanges supports the freedom to travel to Cuba, along with the freedom of information. We believe one of the most important tools in ending the embargo and travel ban against Cuba is by making complete and accurate information available to the U.S. public. We are currently recruiting consultants to support our research and information gathering efforts in Cuba. You can be a part of supporting our efforts to make this much-needed information available to professionals, researchers, students and the general U.S. public.

How about all the political prisoners, those who have been executed, and the total lack of freedom? The general public in the U.S. has no clue concerning the situation in Cuba, or what happened in the past, or about Cuban exiles. Fellow bloggers why don't we give them some suggestions on gathering information concerning the truth!!!!

Castro Wants Pope To Visit Cuba

From Reuters:


ROME (Reuters) - Cuban leader Fidel Castro wants Pope Benedict to make a visit to his country, an Italian cardinal has said.
Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone of Genoa, who recently visited Cuba and met Castro, told the Italian Catholic business magazine "Il Consulente Re" that Castro told him he was impressed by Benedict, who was elected last April.
"I recognised in him the face of an angel, the face of a very good person. I would like to invite him to Cuba," Bertone quoted Castro as telling him.
According to the monthly magazine, published on Tuesday, Castro asked Bertone to help arrange a visit. Benedict's predecessor John Paul visited communist Cuba in 1998.

Dealing with the Devil Part III

U.S. Wheat Associates commits to sell Cuba half a million tons of U.S. wheat. Let's see what else Wheat Associates have to do? Maybe a statement denouncing U.S. policy towards Cuba:

"Just as important, for the long-term, this document is a testament to the power of trade in establishing a human dialogue that can hopefully act as a counterpoint to some ill-advised political strategies which are still mired in the tired rhetoric and failed policies of yesteryear," Mr. Kisling said.


Looks like these guys have been chummy with the dictactor for some time:

The U.S. wheat industry has been working for the last decade to establish relations with Cuba. In coordination with member state wheat commissions, USW initially facilitated wheat flour donations in the mid-1990s through humanitarian groups working in Cuba. Following a series of meetings between USW and Cuban officials over a three year period, Cuba was ready to purchase U.S. wheat in 2001.

These guys even petitioned the United States Department of the Treasury concerning the payment terms in regards to trading with the brutal regime.

Disgrace Part II

Finally found the media release from Unesco. The mockery will take place on January 28, 2006 on the anniversary of Marti's birthday. The award is for "an individual or institution having contributed to the unity and integration of the countries of Latin American and the Caribbean and to the preservation of their identities, cultural traditions and historical values. " The only unity here is the desire for all of Latin-America to go down the slippery slope of Marxism. Unity for hatred, division, Godless society, and total control. Yes I can see the Democratic values cleary in Chavez?

Media Release:

14-12-2005 4:30 pm President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela will receive the 2005 International José Martí Prize in a ceremony that will take place in Havana (Cuba) on 28 January. The ceremony will coincide with the anniversary of the birth, in 1853, of José Martí the Cuban humanist, writer, translator, diplomat and teacher, who is known as the “champion” of Cuba’s independence. The Martí Prize was created in 1994 by UNESCO’s Executive Board on the initiative of Cuba to honour an individual or institution having contributed to the unity and integration of the countries of Latin American and the Caribbean and to the preservation of their identities, cultural traditions and historical values. The $5,000 Prize is awarded on the recommendation of a seven-member international jury, which includes Nadine Gordimer, the South African Nobel Prize for Literature laureate. In the past the Prize has been awarded to Mexican sociologist Pablo González Casanova (2003), Ecuadorian painter Oswaldo Guayasamín (1999), and Dominican historian Celsa Albert Bautista (1995).

ELN in Cuba for Peace Talks?

ELN in Cuba for peace talks and guess who is in the middle: Gabriel García Márquez. Let's see, a commie group is in Cuba(commie country who sponsors all these groups) with Marquez who is Fidel's pal. All they want is a Marxist government in Colombia and Latin-America. I guess we should give more land to rebel groups and look the other way concerning the atrocities. That's what this is really about.

From the Miami Herald:


HAVANA - Peace talks between Colombia and its second-largest rebel group began Friday in Cuba with help from Nobel Prize-winning author Gabriel García Márquez and facilitators from Spain, Norway and Switzerland.
Attempts at peace have formed and fizzled before, but Antonio García, the military commander of the National Liberation Army, better known as ELN, promised that his rebel group won't give up easily.
''We are not going to run,'' García told reporters. ``If the obstacles are big, we'll have to look for support in society, support in the international community. We'll have to reflect deeply on the obstacles and work hard to overcome them . . . to clear the way to peace.''
Several attempts at talks between the Colombian government and the ELN have failed since 1998.
When Cuba last hosted Colombia's talks with the rebel group, in 2002, then-President Andrés Pastrana pulled out, saying the rebels were not interested in peace. Friday's talks mark President Alvaro Uribe's first formal negotiations with left-wing insurgents, although he has been negotiating with right-wing paramilitaries.

What a Disgrace!

Pedro at Baracutey Cubano, has a post concerning Hugo Chavez to receive the Jose Marti award in January 2006. Yes folks, this commie receiving an award with the name of Jose Marti is a utter disgrace. The name of Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro should never be mentioned in the same breath of the beloved Jose Marti!!!

This post is in Spanish and you have to scroll down a bit.

All LHP's:

Some Media is Now Responding

What a surprise some mention of the "Ladies in White" and how they can not leave the country to receive the award.

From Reuters:


HAVANA (Reuters) - The Cuban government is not allowing members of Cuba's "Ladies in White" opposition movement to travel to Strasbourg to receive the EU's top human rights prize, the women said on Tuesday.
For the past two years, the women dressed in white have marched in silence every Sunday along a Havana avenue to demand the release of their husbands and sons who are political dissidents jailed by President Fidel Castro's government.
The Cuban women are joint winners of the 2005 Sakharov Prize for freedom of thought, which will be awarded at a ceremony in the European Parliament on Wednesday.
The other winners are the Nigerian human rights lawyer Hauwa Ibrahim and the Paris-based press freedom organization Reporters Without Borders.
But the five "Ladies in White" selected to receive the prize said Cuba's communist government had not given them exit permits in time to travel to Europe.
"Immigration authorities have my passport and told me I would get it back on Dec. 30 when I would know if I could leave," said Julia Nunez, wife of pro-democracy activist Adolfo Fernandez.
Fernandez was jailed in a March 2003 crackdown on growing opposition to Castro's 46-year rule. He was accused of plotting with the United States to overthrow Cuba's one-party state and sentenced to 15 years in prison.
"The EU as a whole deplores the fact that they cannot go to receive the Sakharov award," said Sven Kuhn von Burgsdorff, the European Commission's charge d'affaires in Havana.
"This will not affect the women's ability to continue their peaceful protest against the detention of their relatives," he said.
The Ladies in White expected the European Parliament to send a delegation to hand them the prize in Cuba.
"We will continue denouncing abuses," Nunez said.
The prize, named after former Soviet dissident Andrei Sakharov, is awarded annually to a person or group that has contributed significantly to human rights.

Song dedicated to the "Ladies in White"

María Lourdes Borrajero, a 16 year old singer, dedicated her song "Virgen de la Caridad" to the "Ladies in "White" in recognition of the Sakharov award. No surprise that the mainstream is ignoring this, and our favorite "look the other way" Lucia Newman is totally silent.

Monument for Victims of Communism

From Newsmax:


A new monument is planned for Washington, D.C. – the International Victims of Communism Memorial, commemorating the more than 100 million lives lost to the enslaving ideology.
Members of the foundation behind the monument are meeting this week at a fund-raiser and will bestow the group’s annual Truman-Reagan Freedom Awards, presented this year to President Reagan’s arms control adviser, Gen. Edward Rowny; the Polish Solidarity Movement of the 1980, and Pope John Paul II, whose posthumous award will be accepted by the Apostolic Nuncio to America, Archbishop Gabriel Montalvo.
If the foundation raises the $650,000 required for the memorial, ground will be broken this spring and the monument should be completed in six months, foundation chairman Lee Edwards told the New York Sun.
The group has received about $500,000 so far, and additional fund-raisers are planned, including a February event in New York to be headlines by former Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
The monument will be a 10-foot bronze replica of the "Goddess of Democracy” statue erected by Chinese students and destroyed by Red Chinese troops in Tiananmen Square in 1989. The image is based on the Statue of Liberty.
Other images that were considered include barbed wire to symbolize the gulags, boats for the Vietnamese "boat people,” a replica of the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, and a field of skulls to represent the Cambodian killing fields under Pol Pot, according to the Sun.
The "Democracy” statue will stand on a three-foot granite pedestal and be located at a major intersection on a lot approved by the National Parks Service in April. Congress and President Clinton approved the monument in 1993, and President Bush has agreed to serve as the foundation’s honorary chairman.
"People are quite aware of what the Nazis did, but they are not aware of what the communists did,” said Richard Pipes, a noted Sovietologist and Harvard professor who helped document the death toll due to communism.
"There is this general sort of presumption, particularly among intellectuals, that, ‘Oh, communism was a good idea that didn’t quite work out so well.’
"But in terms of human casualties, what went on in Russia and China is outrageous. I think this kind of memorial will make people aware of it.”

Dealing with the Devil Part II

Click here for pictures of the $20 million dollar deal. Love the handshake, what do the Cuban people get? A good swift kick in the ass. Dr. Biscet who is lingering in prison for his life gets nothing! No help or no mention. I am sure John Baldacci will never clasp the hands of any Cubans or Cuban-Americans for the freedom of the Cuban people.

Question to You?

Take a look at the picture in this article. Now tell me did this really rub you the wrong way? Now I do not have all the circumstances and why they did this, but it did rub me the wrong way.

Dealing with the Devil

Governor John Baldacci of Maine signed a trade agreement with Cuba last Sunday. Even before reading the article, I knew what the Governor had to do in exchange: "normalization of relations with communist Cuba must come one step at a time." Just denounce the embargo and encourage relations with the thugs and in exchange receive a $20 million dollar package. I guess nobody gives a crap about the political prisoners, nobody cares about all those who have been executed, and no one gives a shit about how the Cuban people have been suffering for over 40 years.

Some nauseating excerpts:


Baldacci, the sixth sitting U.S. governor to visit Cuba since the United States imposed trade sanctions four decades ago, said he wanted Maine to be a leader in expanding U.S. trade with the island.
"We're working within the existing framework, trying to show other states the ability to trade with Cuba," Baldacci told a news conference. "We hope to demonstrate how important this is."
In 2001, Maine became the first U.S. state to pass a resolution urging an end to the decades-old U.S. trade and travel sanctions against the Caribbean nation.

Help Dr. Biscet!!!

Forget about Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Charles Rangel, and Jose Serrano to do or say anything about the plight of Dr. Biscet. Cuban American Pundits and Babalu are leading the charge with a plea to write a letter for the release of a true champion of freedom!!

U.S. Mission Chief Slams Cuba

From Net For Cuba:


Diplomat slams Cuba for rights abuses
Sat Dec 10, 2005 8:29 PM ET`
HAVANA (Reuters) - President Fidel Castro's communist government is clinging to power by trampling on the rights of Cuba's 11 million people, the top U.S. diplomat in Havana said on Saturday in his first public meeting with Cuban dissidents.U.S. mission chief Michael Parmly said the targeting of opponents by angry mobs of government supporters sent to demonstrate outside their homes was a "particularly disgusting" practice that recalled Nazi brownshirts or the Ku Klux Klan."The Cuban regime does not represent the people," Parmly said in a speech to dissidents and foreign diplomats marking International Human Rights Day at his residence."It maintains itself by isolating Cubans from the rest of the world, keeping Cubans artificially poor and dependent on a state that demands unquestionable compliance, and instilling fear among those who question the regime's lies," he said.Wives of imprisoned political prisoners, known as the Ladies in White, attended the event along with Cuba's leading dissidents, who said government repression worsened in 2005.Rights groups say the one-party state is holding more than 300 people in prison for political reasons."The situation is deteriorating. We are seeing more repression every day by a government that is on its last legs," said Vladimiro Roca, the son of one of the founding fathers of Cuban communism.Dr. Hilda Molina, who pioneered neurosurgery in Cuba, said: "In my opinion, not a single human right is respected in Cuba. We have a government that operates entirely by whim."Molina quit the ruling Communist Party a decade ago because she disagreed with preferential treatment given to foreigners by Cuba's medical system to generate hard currency.The Cuban government has denied Molina's requests to travel to Argentina to visit her son and see two grandchildren she has never met."The public health system is caring for foreigners and discriminates against Cubans," she said.The United States broke off diplomatic relations with Cuba shortly after Castro's leftist revolution in 1959. The two ideological foes are represented by low-level interest sections opened in each capital in 1977.

The Oil Pimp Program

Here is a press release from our favorite commie congressman. Please boycott Citgo!!

“Some have tried to read politics into these outreach programs” said Venezuelan Ambassador Bernardo Alvarez, “but they should not do so. This is a humanitarian gesture on the part of the Venezuelan people to our neighbors in need. It flows out of a promise President Chavez made during his trip to New York shortly after the hurricanes caused such havoc. It is consistent with our outreach to other countries in the Americas, using our oil to assist in economic development and regional integration. We are all Americans.”

To Fidel and mini-me everything has to do with politics!

Political Prisoners

Those who are marching in Cuba to protest against torture are really misguided. I believe they know what they are doing and aiding the enemy. Just a refresher on some of those suffering in Cuban jails. What about Dr. Biscet? Christians? Why don't they do a little fact-finding and research on all those who were killed and tortured simply because they spoke out and were Christians. Of course not, just plain commies!!!!

Protest March


from Cubanet:

Women stage protest march in Santa Clara

SANTA CLARA, Cuba,

December 8 (Guillermo Fariñas, Cubanacán Press / www.cubanet.org) - Ten Opposition women marched through the center of Santa Clara on Sunday in a protest against the imprisonment of political dissidents.The women, all members of the Marta Abreu Feminine Movement, met at Nuestra Señora del Buen Viaje church, where they prayed for the release of prisons before undertaking their march.Dressed in white, they marched to the Leoncio Vidal Park, where they laid a wreath of gladiolas at the statue of Marta Abreu de Estévez, the city's benefactor."We were under surveillance by the political police and some paramilitaries at all times, but we were never bothered," said Noelia Pedraza Jiménez, president of the organization, which was founded last month.

Venezuela

From Venezuelatoday.net:

"XXIst Century Socialism" - Just what the hell does this mean?The REAL STORY is that the vast majority (83% and counting upwards as we await the final tally of null votes) of voting age Venezuelans opted to BOYCOTT the quintessential act in any democracy because they had no other means
to effectively express their opposition, fear, lack of confidence, or loss of patience at the way the political elite –
those in power and those sensibly powerless – have been conducting the affairs of the State.
The clear losers here were the authoritarian government and the political parties that failed to hear and interpret both
a nation's plea and its deafening silence.

The TRUE STORY here is that after 7 years people are fed up with all things Chávez. This may not mean they are ready to go back to the now "100% demonized past," but it certainly means that Chávez has been robbed of the weapon that made him so menacing. No longer can he state ANYWHERE that his crooked brand of populism
is backed by those he proclaims to be helping.
This Sunday's election proves that the only gullible people around are those that failed to understand the true story by the time the polls opened, or worse those who continue to insist on the contrary after the votes were counted
and the damming observer's reports were delivered.

Soap Box

My freedom loving brethren, lately I have been frustrated with many things concerning this blog. Several of us have called out to you do something concerning the wet foot/dry foot policy. Not a peep, just some comments that it's not worth it, you will never get anybody to listen. Just the typical B.S. whining. I am quite surprised the comments are usually from those whom I'd never expect to react that way. The last several days I have contemplated on not doing this anymore, does anyone besides the few loyal bloggers dedicated to the "truth" concerning Cuba, really care? Well, something happened that really sparked me. I have noticed that I have had several hits on my blog from "Cuber" I figured it was some official checking my blog out. I received several messages "Thank You"
"Spread the word concerning our plight" " we do read your blog in clandestine"
Now it could be some government official, or maybe not. I am not going to divulge who they are or explain how they gained access. I need to protect them just in case. Now is this blog and our struggle worth it? Yes!!!! We must not give up our fight! I entered a temporary state of darkness and I have seen the light!

This graphic courtesy of Daniel from Venezuela News and Views. Many concerns still linger about the recent election. Chavez supporters won all of the 167 National Assembly seats.

Concerns from The Miami Herald:


''Broad sectors of Venezuelan society have no confidence either in the electoral process or the independence of the electoral authority,'' the EU observers wrote. The National Electoral Council is dominated by supporters of Chávez,
The OAS report mentioned the decision to keep some polling places open beyond the 4 p.m. closing time. This coincided, it noted, with ``an increase in the government's campaign to increase participation in the final hours.''
At the 4 p.m. deadline only 19 percent of voters had cast their ballots, international observers told The Herald. The opposition election-monitoring group Súmate claims that nearly a third of the votes were cast after 4 p.m.
The extension of the closing hours ''helped to create uncertainty and suspicion,'' the OAS said in its statement, although it fell short of saying the government had inflated the polling numbers, as some opposition groups claim.
Other concerns included the illegal participation of government officials, including ministers, and public resources in the campaign, and the abuse of state media and the president's right to take over the airwaves at any point and for an unlimited time.
Western diplomats in Caracas meanwhile criticized what they said were last-minute changes to soften the wording of the OAS report -- and alleged that the changes were made under strong pressure from the Venezuelan government.
The Herald was told by diplomats from both EU and OAS member states that OAS observer mission chief Rubén Perina received calls from Venezuelan Vice President José Vicente Rangel and electoral council chairman Jorge Rodríguez after the draft report had already been prepared.

Elian's 12th Birthday

Elian's celebrates his 12th birthday by doing what? You guessed it chico, by listening to a two-hour speech by the master of propaganda himself. I thought castro was not going to use Elian for any publicity? Thank you Bill Clinton and Janet Reno for sending Elian back to the thug.

Castro Calls Jeb Bush "Fat"

Article from the Miami Herald:

Castro called the governor ''the fat little brother in Florida'' and wondered if Bush had helped Luis Posada Carriles into the country, according to a transcript released Monday of the Nov. 17 address to University of Havana students, who erupted in laughter.
The Cuban leader didn't stop there.
'Forgive me for using the term `fat little brother' '' Castro said. ``It is not a criticism, rather a suggestion that he do some exercises and go on a diet, don't you think? I'm doing this for the gentleman's health.''

-Isn't that special that he is concerned about Jeb's health or really? He takes shots at everyone, but no one can criticize him. We better watch out because the brutal regime will probaly take out a $163,000 ad in some other newspaper and who knows who they are going to arrest next!

Read the entire nauseating speech.

Speech by a Dictator

Here is a speech given by dictator castro(never been elected) at the Commemoration of the 60th Anniversary of his admission to University of Havana. Please try to stay awake while reading this and see if you can make any sense out of it?

Check out these excerpts:


"This is the kind of world we are living in. It is not a world full of goodness, but a world full of egoism. It is not a world of justice, but one full of exploitation, abuse and pillage, where millions of children die every year –and they could be saved--, just because they are lacking a few cents worth of medicine, or some vitamins or re-hidration salts and a few dollars worth of food, enough for them to live. " Yes, mr. dictator right in your own backyard.


"More than a century has gone by and this piece of our territory is still forcibly occupied today bringing shame and horror to the world when it is known to have been turned into a torture center, where hundreds of people pulled in from different parts of the world are kept in detention. They do not take them to their own country because there may be laws that would make things difficult for them to illegally hold these people by force, kidnapped for years, overriding any legal procedure, and to the amazement of the entire world, these people are being subjected to sadistic and brutal torture. The world learned of this only when in Iraq they were torturing hundreds of prisoners from a country invaded by the powerful forces of a colossal empire, and where hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilians have lost their lives."

- What about all the political prisoners and those executed the last 40 years?
(La Cabana and Isla de Pinos ring a bell?)


"Iran is a signatory of the Non-Proliferation Treaty, and so is Cuba. We have never considered producing nuclear weapons, because we don’t need them. Even if they were accessible, how much would they cost and what sense would it make producing a nuclear weapon with an enemy that has thousands of nuclear weapons? It would mean joining the game of nuclear confrontation."

-Did we forget the Cuban-missile crises in the 60's


"Which of us, which of you, which of our compatriots would quietly admit to a story of torturing even one citizen, "

- We know what happens when people speak out!



"I wish I had more time to speak to you, but this moment now is without precedent. It is a time that is different from all the others. It is nothing like it was in 1945; it is nothing like it was in 1950 when we graduated, but we had all those ideas that I mentioned that day, when I affirmed with love, respect and the utmost affection, that I came to this University with a rebellious spirit, with some elemental ideas of justice, then here I became a revolutionary, I became a Marxist-Leninist and I acquired the ideas that I have never abandoned, nor have I ever been tempted to do so, not in the least. For that reason, I dare say that I will never abandon them."

-More time to speak? what do you need another 5 hours blathering about yourself and the idiotic revolution?

Latest in Venezuela

It is past 5:oo P.M. E.S.T. and according to Venezuela Today : Voting Centers Empty - Abstention at 85%. Many voting centers were still open after the 4:00PM deadline.

Remember who we are dealing with! Look who helps spread the propaganda of mini-me.

Venezuelan diplomat met regularly with Ecuadorean rebels.

Jimmy Carter where are you?

Eve of the Election

Daniel has an excellent post on the election in Venezuela and does a masterful analysis on how democracy has ended in this country. Again where is the worldwide outcry? The Carter Center had an extensive "Carter Center and The Peacebuilding Process in Venezuela" that detailed a 5 year plan to restore and build democracy. As you can see things have gone the other way down the path of the absurd ideology of socialism.

Elections

Congressional elections are scheduled for tomorrow for Venezuela. Here is a reminder on how extensive Jimmy Carter reviewed the claims of fraud for the election. Jimmy "one day and out" intensive investigation can be seen through his report and his silence concerning the upcoming elections.

"Hasta Siempre"

Check out the movie trailers on this movie produced by " Rice N Peas." I did not check out all the trailers. Some were good others were pure propaganda, but it does put some dents in the so called "Revolution." Let me know what you think?

Cubanos No Way!


Blog for Cuba has an excellent analysis on the immigration issue. I hear these comments all the time "Cubans get preferential treatment when it comes to immigration." Look at the numbers: 400,000 vs. 2,368. We have over 11 million illegals in this country. It's funny everyone wants to come here for a better life and live the American dream, but why? You never hear this, could it be that Mexico and other Latin-American countries could give a crap about their people! They are rich in resources but basically are poor and corrupt. No it's not yankee imperialism, you guys are bunch of crooks! You commies do start on what you believe the utopia called Cuba! That is why people are dying trying to reach freedom. The exodus is not from U.S. to Cuba!

Always Blame the U.S. and Everyone Else

Vice President Jose Vicente Rangel alleged that the U.S. Embassy had links to moves by several opposition parties to pull out of Sunday's elections.
"We have sufficient intelligence and enough information suggesting that behind the card of not participating there are aims of destabilizing the country," Rangel said. "Behind it all, the U.S. Embassy has been very active, extremely active."

Elections in Venezuela

The congressional elections are scheduled for this Sunday and some opposition groups are withdrawing saying that conditions are not conducive to fair elections. I am sure Jimmy Carter will come in and straighten everything out(For Chavez that is!!) I have to admit they are good when it comes to propaganda. In this article they reference chavez as "champion of the poor." We all know what these revolutions really do: "make everyone poor"

Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I get home last night after a rough day and I start checking my e-mail. I get this long rambling e-mail concerning why we should use "holiday" instead of Christmas. I am thinking what does this have to do with the blog? I did mention about having a t-shirt with "Merry Christmas"

To Mr. Communism(that's the name he used):

Merry Christmas !
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas !
and by the way Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kill Castro and Blog for Cuba both have a post concerning the the 7 year old girl that was picked up by a cruise ship. Can you believe this: On Thanksgiving weekend. Elian was also picked up on Thanksgiving weekend. A coincidence, no way! I believe this a message or a wake up call to fight for what is right. The media is ignoring and does not care about the plight of this 7 year old. Many of us have stated that we need to do something about the idiotic wet-foot, dry-foot policy for Cuban migrants. I do not have the money or clout, but I can spread the word through this blog and to start a letter writing campaign to the President, Politicians, famous Cuban-Americans, anyone that can help our cause. I need your help! I do this blog in what little spare time I have. Can we make a difference? I don't know but let's give it our best. That is the least we can do for all those who have died trying to reach freedom. If you are not going to do anything, please do not waste my time complaining that we can't do this or that, or is it worth it? 11 million illegals are in this country and it seems everything is done to make sure they stay here, but several Cubans escaping communism are immediately sent back? I still get comments that Cubans are given preferential treatment when it comes to immigration. How so? Let's get on the offensive

Communism Kills

All you lefties with all your jargon revolutionary soundbites(Che Guevera T-shirts included) how can you defend someone like Mao Tse-tung, who according to this article is responsible for 77 million deaths. How about this: "Marxist regimes murdered nearly 110 million people from 1917 to 1987 " and this: "And what did Marxism, this greatest of human social experiments, achieve for its poor citizens, at this most bloody cost in lives? Nothing positive. It left in its wake an economic, environmental, social and cultural disaster. "

Read the rest of this great article here.

New T-shirt Ideas:

Merry Christmas(can we say this anymore, thanks to all the lefties ruining this country)

Marxism Kills(77 million and counting)

Nuclear energy Program(Don't worry about Venezuela)

Keep the U.N. out of the Internet!

If Cuba is so great, why do they all want to vacate

Free healthcare, so why all the despair.

Castro lives like a king, but the Cuban people have nothing.

Carter is in Venezuela one day and out

God(I know this is highly offensive to many, and you probably could not wear this in many public places. Wear at your own risk!!!)

Scary

Hugo Chavez starting a nuclear energy program is very alarming. Not to worry says Chavez! O.K. that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy that a nut job, whose hero is fidel, is starting a nuclear program. Here is an article concerning this topic. Again, do not worry!!!!!!

Venezuela

Venezuela is a hot topic these days and for good reason. The Toronto Star has an article that details how chavez uses his weekly show to lash out at everyone. Blog for Cuba has an excellent post concerning who is really behind the security detail for chavez. If you want to hear for yourself the rubbish called "Alo, Presidente' click here.

Hello, Anybody Out There!

I guess commie leftist books are in high demand. The leftist media are the only ones interested in her, but something happened that she even pissed them off? Could it be her absence from the summit in Argentina?

The Oil Pimp Continues

Listen to a radio interview concerning the "deal" with Massachusetts here.

The Castro Times has an article concerning the deal with the "Commie from the Bronx" read it if you have the stomach.

Chavez and Uribe sign a deal to build a gas pipeline between the two countries.

Control, Control, and want to Control More!

Cuba says it wants to confront and defeat the western media? What they mean is that they want to control everything media wise. What are they bitching about, since they basically take out $163,000 ads, control Cuba content on CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC and who knows what else? They want to control bloggers that is their goal! The article states all the T.V. and radio stations that the Cuban people are afforded, one important fact left out: government control. Let the people of Cuba surf whatever websites they want, listen to anything they want, and watch any T.V. program! C'mon what are you afraid of? Open up those modems!!

Apartheid of the Cuban People


From Cubanet:

FROM CUBA
November 23, 2005
1) Cuba doctors forbidden to stay at site of convention
2) Home of dissident stoned by paramilitary members

1) Cuba doctors forbidden to stay at site of convention
CIEGO DE AVILA, Cuba, November 22 (Abel Escobar Ramírez / www.cubanet.org) -

Cuban doctors attending an international medical convention at a tourist facility in Ciego de Avila province complain they were not allowed to stay at the same hotels as foreign participants.Instead, they were obliged to stay at nearby guest houses where they say they were well treated but not as well as foreign doctors were at the tourist hotels where they stayed.Under Cuban law, Cuban citizens are not allowed to stay at hotels which cater to foreign tourists.The event in question was the XVI International Congress of the Cuban Society of Orthopedics and Trauma, held recently held at the Polo Turístico Jardines del Rey in Ciego de Ávila.According to Cuban participants, registration fees for the congress were 400 pesos, the equivalent of two months salary for the average Cuban worker.Among the foreign participants at the Congress was William Stetson, a member of the American association of arthroscopic surgeons.

2) Home of dissident stoned by paramilitary members
HAVANA, November 22 (Ernesto Roque Cintero, UPECI / www.cubanet.org) -

The home of Alberto Moreno Fonseca, president of the Rural Worker Party, was stoned last week by paramilitaries, according to another dissident.María del Carmen Biriau, vice president of the party, said the attack was the ninth against Moreno's home in less than three months.She said the main instigator of the attack was a paramilitary named Esteban Fonseca, who shouted "Down with human rights!" and other anti-opposition remarks.

Such A Deal(Part II)

Now it's the representative of Cuba, excuse me I meant Congressman Jose Serrano doing a deal with the oil pimp. Low- cost heating oil program for the low income residents of the Bronx. Isn't that special chico! Let me see Jose, what in the world do you have to do in return? Maybe this:

-Keep praising fidel and hugo
-Denounce the embargo on Cuba
-Keep having radio and T.V. interviews in support of Cuba and Venezuela(someone remind him he is a representative of the U.S.)
-Promote the Bolivarian Circles here in the U.S.
-Denounce our President and the U.S. in general

Check out the special press release.

Such a deal with the Commies!

Step right up, do a deal with a thug! Everybody is doing deals with killstro and mini-me. The latest is Joseph P. Kennedy, of Massachusetts. Venezuela is shipping 12 million gallons of home-heating fuel with $9 million going to the poor. O.K. so what's the catch? Here it is: Kennedy must now be a ally for the oil pimp, denounce the embargo in Cuba, and make sure Jimmy Carter is in Venezuela during the elections.

More On Our Favorite Group: Code Commies

Code Pink protested at military recruiting centers last week and staged fake military bake sales. Isn't that so cute! How about this: check out the photos of the artsy fartsy slogans and posters.

I have some some slogans that they can use on posters and t-shirts(Charge $15.99 for t-shirts, $2.50 for bumper stickers. Wait a minute, I forgot you commies can't make any evil profits!):

"I am really a communist"

" Beheadings are cool!"

" I could give a rats ass if I am aiding the enemy."

"I hate the U.S. with a passion, that I would rather defend terrorist ."(charge extra for this one!)

" I am wearing a Guevera t-shirt, but I am so ignorant of the facts of the butcher."

"Havana and Caracas are my kind of towns!"

" What happens in Havana, stays in Havana especially if you speak out against castro"

" We say no to torture and war, but not counting communist revolutions!"

" What mass graves in Iraq?"

" Killing is O.K. for dictators."

U.S. Agents Target Posada Ally(Updated)

Federal agents searched the office of Santiago Alvarez, a close ally of Posada. The same day that the search was being conducted, an ad in castro's favorite paper(N.Y. times) just happens to appear:

''October 6, 1976, was our September 11,'' said the letter, referring to the bombing of a Cubana De Aviación jetliner that killed 73 people. ``Help us keep a terrorist like Luis Posada Carriles, admitted murderer, from gaining protection and impunity in the country where so many people still cry for the victims of the terrorist act that brought down the twin towers on September 11.''

The ad cost $163,320(I thought commies did not believe in freedom of the press?) no chump change here. I wonder who was sponsoring this ad?(sorry, being sarcastic!)

Lucia Newman please find out why we can't run an ad in the Granma for the release of all political prisoners, yet a foriegn government can advertise and promote their ideas in our papers?

Great Article by Humberto Fontova

Mr. Fontova destroys the myth of Leche Guevera as a 'Guerrilla Fighter.' He writes a great piece here. It seems that Guevera t-shirts are popping up everywhere lately. Yet, when you question the moron wearing the shirt, you always get a blank stare and then they become very hostile and defensive.
Could it be we hit them with some reality? Talking about reality here is a site that also exposes the truth concerning Guevera.

Chavez calls Bush a Murderer

Always the agitator, mini-me relies on the standard tactic of fear to distract the people of Venezuala from the failures of the revolution. Yo Chavez do we need Rocky or Pauly to find out this mystery called "Balboa."

Talk of U.S. plots divides Venezuelans
By IAN JAMES
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER


CARACAS, Venezuela -- Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez accuses Washington of plotting to overthrow him, calls President Bush a "murderer" and is expelling some American missionaries who he insists have links to the CIA.
Venezuelans are sharply divided between those who believe him and those who call it a ploy to distract attention from Venezuela's real problems such as gun violence, inflation, corruption and the homeless who wander Caracas.
"We have to be on alert," said street vendor Carlos Yanave, 44, who fears Bush could send troops to seize Venezuela's oil reserves, the largest outside the Middle East.
"It's a political maneuver," said Jannet Pestana, a 37-year-old lawyer. She said Chavez is trying to "divert attention from the true problems" by taking advantage of Bush's unpopularity.
Chavez says Venezuela has good reason to be concerned given the history of U.S. military actions in places from Iraq to Afghanistan.
"The people of the United States are governed by a murderer ... a crazy man!" Chavez said in a speech Thursday night.
Chavez has sought to make his case citing U.S. documents, online reports and statements from Washington.
"Military plans to attack Venezuela are in full preparation," he told thousands of demonstrators recently at an international summit in Argentina, warning that a U.S. attack would trigger a "100-year war."

Chavez, who is up for re-election next year, has clashed frequently with the United States since he took office in 1999 promising a revolution for the poor.
He says Venezuela must be prepared to defend itself and has called for volunteers to join the army reserve while ordering 100,000 Russian-made Kalashnikov rifles.
He has seized on intelligence documents released by the United States showing that the CIA knew beforehand that dissident military officers planned a 2002 coup against him. Chavez was briefly ousted but was restored to power by loyalist generals amid a popular uprising.
The Bush administration denies backing any plot against Chavez, though U.S. officials on Thursday accused him of endangering Venezuelan democracy by assuming ever-greater powers. Chavez retorted that the United States is the real threat to democracy.
Chavez's government also has released purported Spanish military documents detailing a 2001 military exercise called "Balboa." The simulation involved an assault on a "brown" country modeled after Venezuela. The documents list warplanes to be used and coordinates of real targets such as airfields and radar installations.
Venezuelan officials have accused the United States of providing confidential information for the simulation conducted by officials of the Spanish military and other NATO countries. Spain's military has not responded to a request for comment.
William Brownfield, the U.S. Ambassador to Venezuela, insists it was simply a Spanish military exercise - not any real plan and not linked to Washington. Last week Brownfield rattled off a list of other things he said Venezuela has wrongly blamed on America - from alleged assassination plots to floods brought on by global warming.
"Ladies and gentlemen, how can I get any sleep with so many conspiracies and plots?" Brownfield asked reporters.
Vice President Jose Vicente Rangel later shot back: "People can't sleep when they have problems with their conscience."
Chavez's attacks have extended to Mexican President Vicente Fox, whom he recently called Washington's "puppy" for backing its free-trade plan - a dispute that led both nations to withdraw their ambassadors.
Other accusations have surfaced against the U.S.-based New Tribes Mission, missionaries working with remote Indian tribes. Chavez claims they are being infiltrated by the CIA, and the government has given them three months to leave areas where they work.
The organization based in Sanford, Fla., denies the charges. Spokeswoman Nita Zelenak said the missionaries are preparing to move out, while hoping the government will reconsider.

THE KEYS

Coast Guard looks for missing Cuban rafter

KEY WEST - The Coast Guard searched Wednesday for a Cuban rafter reported missing a few miles off the Lower Keys after five others he had traveled with were found.
The migrants were trying to make it to Florida on at least one, maybe two, homemade boats. At least one of the Cubans was found on a flimsy vessel near a reef.
Under the U.S. wet-foot, dry-foot immigration policy, most Cubans caught at sea are returned to their homeland while those who make it to land are allowed to remain.
The agency also said it repatriated 10 Cuban migrants to Bahia de Cabanas, Cuba on Wednesday. The migrants were among a group spotted Sunday by a boater in Key West's channel. At least one was found clinging to a buoy as others tried to swim to shore.

Where are You!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Blogs that are dedicated to the freedom of Cuba are the only ones bringing the issue of the Wet Foot-Dry Foot policy to the forefront. CB and Ziva, and others are calling for action! The result: no famous Cuban-Americans, no politicians, and no concerned citizens doing anything? Get off your ass and do something, we do these blogs on what little spare time we have. North Dakota inks a $20 million deal with the brutal regime and not even a peep from anyone. Cubans trying to reach freedom and many die: No response or outrage? Can you imagine if this was any other ethnic group or minority? The news would be 24/7 with Jesse Jackson leading marches everywhere. I expect this from the media, but with in our own brethren?

Get off your ass and do something!!!!!!!!

Cuban U.N. Victory?

(Warning!!) Please get your Pepto Dismal ready before reading this article. Here is Daniel Ortega's message to fidel castro:

"On hearing of Cuba's merited victory in the United Nations, we Sandinistas celebrate with delight, and as if it were a victory of ours, of the people, that vote in favor of justice and against imperial arrogance,"

What victory? Just like the victory chavez had in the recent summit? Cuba can trade with any country in the world with the exception of the U.S.(Not really , didn't Cuba just sign a deal with North Dakota for $20 million) and answer me why are the people of Cuba on ration books over 40 years later? Victory for who? Just the regime in in the victory lap! The victims of communist revolutions and regimes are left with:

Rations books
No free election in 40 years(do not give me that crap about how you have elections)
No freedom of expression
No private property
No religious freedom
Political prisoners and executions
(Do you want me to go on!)

Yep, a complete and moral victory? Hey why is daniel ortega still around after all the atrocities that the sandinistas committed?

More on 'Unfair" Trade Agreements with Cuba

Here is a press release from Agriculture Commissioner, Roger Johnson of North Dakota. A record $20 million dollar deal with Cuba was inked with the brutal regime. I am sure a great deal of "fact finding" went into this business deal. My fellow North Dakota delegation let me remind you of what your business partner has inflicted on the Cuban people.

Not " A big Winner" in Argentina

According to the media Chavez really took it to Bush. Mini-me astounded the summit by instigating a riot and then twenty nine countries voted in favor of ALCA, four voted in favor of waiting and only Chavez was in favor of 'burying' it. Yep, a solid victory! Now he is insulting Vincente Fox. A toast to those in the media for their journalist valor, in-depth reporting, and obvious un-biased reporting.(Sorry no French wine in respect to what's happening in France concerning the Muslims-OOPS, can I say Muslim without offending?)

Riots in France

" Oyeme Alfredo why haven't you mentioned anything concerning the riots in France?"O.K. here is why: It is so obvious that this was all planned by the Muslim extremist, but the media basically ignores this and puts the injustice and no opportunity spin on it. Here is an excellent article in the The Weekly Standard that nails it!

Three Jailed for Printing Bibles

Three people jailed for printing bibles in China. Commies fear anything that has to with God and the bible. Please do not e-mail that China does have religious freedom. No they don't, neither does Cuba, what they have is officially sanctioned churches who promote the communist line. The communist state is "God" Look at what happens when you really worship God and distribute the bible.

Chavez used Government Funds for Protest in Argentina?

Opposition parties claim that Chavez used government funds to pay for the mass protest in Argentina.

Chavez foes hit protest funding
WORLD BRIEFINGS
by Martin Arostegui
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
November 8, 2005

SANTA CRUZ, Bolivia

Venezuelan opposition parties charge that President Hugo Chavez used government funds to help pay for mass protests in Mar del Plata, Argentina, which resulted in violence during Friday's meeting of heads of state of the Americas. "The Venezuelan government not only took great trouble in organizing, but also paid the costs for the events of the alternative summit in Mar del Plata to serve as a stage for President Chavez and his radical attacks against what he defines as 'imperialism,'?" said lawmaker Carlos Berrizbeitia. The representative of the center-right Venezuelan Project party said he has documents proving that a mass rally where Mr. Chavez spoke for two hours, calling on supporters to "bury capitalism and United States imperialism," was sponsored with official funds. Some of the protesters later rampaged through the streets of the seaside resort, torching banks and businesses in efforts to break through police cordons around the official conference where President Bush pushed for a hemispheric free-trade zone. Mr. Bush's proposal was opposed by Venezuela, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina and Brazil. Domestic opponents of Mr. Chavez say the Venezuelan Foreign Ministry spent more than $2.5 million on Mr. Chavez's trip and the stadium rally in Mar del Plata. Mr. Berrizbeitia said $100,000 went to pay Argentine soccer star Diego Maradona to appear on the podium. Maradona has been active in leftist politics since he went to a detoxification clinic in Cuba some years ago to cure a cocaine addiction. The U.S. State Department, as well as Latin American political leaders and security officials, often accuse the Venezuelan president of supporting violent movements throughout the region that have toppled successive governments in Ecuador and Bolivia and threaten stability of Colombia and other countries. Mr. Chavez was joined at Mar del Plata by Bolivia's radical leader, Evo Morales, whose party, the Movement to Socialism (MAS), has violently ousted two Bolivian presidents since 2003. The group of 1,000 to 2,000 protesters called "quebrancho," who rioted Friday, is said to be an offshoot of the "piqueteros" -- a larger protest movement in Argentina. Mario Baizan, a former chief of international investigations with Argentina's Interior Ministry, said several hundred piqueteros have recently undergone military training in Venezuela. Reports in the Argentina newspaper El Clarin said a group of piqueteros went to Venezuela to join a 30,000-member militia formed by Mr. Chavez to guard against a U.S. invasion. At the Mar del Plata protests, Mr. Chavez warned that any U.S. intervention in Venezuela would lead to a "hundred-years war" in the region. Mr. Berrizbeitia also said two planeloads of personnel who accompanied Mr. Chavez to Mar del Plata included a group of Cubans who served as a special security team for the rally, as well as doctors, cooks and a camera crew that transmitted the event live on Venezuelan state television. He complained that the money would have been better spent to help Venezuela's poor. "It is regrettable that Venezuelan money should be squandered in giving our country a terrible image abroad, because Chavez stood before the world as an agitator with the terrible violent events which occurred in Mar del Plata following his incendiary discourse."
