Those Crazy Cubans Just nuts about freedom...

by Tom Adkins

Those crazy Cubans. Did you see them on CNN? Screaming, yelling, waving flags, stomping around and actually getting angry . They're almost frothing at the mouth, crying real tears, ranting and raving about America, freedom and all that stuff. They sound almost like...like...Patrick Henry.

Or Ben Franklin. Or Thomas Jefferson. Or anyone of those nut cases who signed the Declaration of Independence and told King George to take a flying leap. Those guys were absolutely fanatical about their freedom.

No wonder Democrats hate them.

The Miami Cubans remind us how angry we should be if anyone, especially our own government, tramples on our rights and freedom. You'd think the average housewife would get a little upset if 130 machine-gun toting, skull-cracking, cursing and swearing government agents kicked the neighbors door down, snatched a six-year-old refugee away and sent him back to certain Communist oppression. But the modem American has become flaccid in protecting the freedoms our fathers died to preserve. We are willing dupes to a traitorous president and his curious attempt to cozy-up to a filthy murdering Communist dictator. The Cuban Americans are merely trying to warn us.

Cuban American are an interesting lot. Some are ex-patriots who escaped Castro's bloody hand. Others were bom here, waiting for a chance to live in a homeland they've never seen. Almost all have relatives who were either jailed, tortured or killed by Fidel Castro in order to keep his miserable vision of Socialism alive. America offered a safe haven to preserve their culture, waiting for the chance to retum to a free homeland.

When Elian Gonzalez was miraculously rescued, these exiles probably never expected an American president to force his retum to the Cuban hellhole. But they got a lesson in modem American left-wing politics. For reasons still unexplained, Bill Clinton and Janet Reno intentionally sacrificed Elian Gonzalez to make Fidel Castro look good.

Certainly the Clinton regime expected the Miami Cubans to knuckle under as easily as say, Congressional Republicans. But they went nuts; parading, protesting, appearing on TV and generally making serious pests of themselves.

Expecting law and civility to protect them, they dared the Clinton Administration to flinch. How naive. Like Paula Jones, Linda Tripp, Kathleen Willey, Gary Aldrich and a bunch of incinerated corpses at Waco and aspirin factories across the globe, there is an endless list of innocents who got in the way of Clinton's crimes and ambition. The Clinton strategy never wavers; crank the propaganda machine into action, feeding the adoring press who shoves it verbatim down the public's throat to sway opinion. Voila! Instant public enemy! Then destroy by whatever means necessary. And kill them if possible. When questioned, claim the end justifies the means.

In the old days, Jones, Tripp and Aldrich would be applauded, traitorous Loral corporation would be ruined, and owner Bernard Schwartz would be in jail. As would half the Clinton cabinet and Clinton himself, unless we saw fit to hang them. But this is a new America, where doing the right thing is passe. Now, we accept whatever you can get away with. America has become a tyrant's dream. . . fat, dumb and happy, docile as cattle as long as the 401 K is cruising along. That's how Rome worked, feeding Christians to lions for sport . . . right up until the barbarians were at the gates.

Are those Miami Cubans nuts? You bet. It's been ten generations since America was dominated by another government. But Cubans know first-hand what tyranny is all about. Like someone who got mugged last week, they pay more attention to the world around them.

Elian Gonzalez will soon be back in Cuba. It is supreme naivete that encourages Americans to send Elian back in order to. . . to what? His father's newfound loving care will bring him a quarter-pound of meat per month, full-time work in the sugar cane fields when he turn 11 , and a nation where he will be imprisoned, tortured, and quite possibly killed if he ever dares to speak out against his government's hideously failed experiment of dictatorial communism. How noble of us.

It is alarming that Americans would fall so easily for this savage PR campaign against people who are embarrassingly passionate about America's freedom. Cubans know the smell of tyranny. If only every mother would defend her children's freedom like Marisleysis Gonzalez. If only every uncle would offer a home to oppressed refugees like Lazaro. If only everyone had a friend like Donato Dalrymple who is willing to lose his voice and perhaps his life to keep even one little soul from a lifetime of enslavement and misery . What a powerful irony that such a people actually have greater passion for America's freedom than we do.

Those Crazy Cubans. I love every damned one of them.
