A CUBAN BOY
 
When I was about 9 years old I remember asking my dad about Castro.
I asked, "Is Castro a good guy or bad?"

Dad said
he couldn't tell!! This was about 1955. We were living in Louisiana at the time. Dad was in the Army and stationed there.

Cuba was fairly close and in the news a lot. The Cubans were asking the same question! Ike was president.

This past July 4th, we had the pleasure of sharing a summer barbecue with a refugee from Cuba . Our dinner conversation was starkly different than most.

This refugee came to the United States as a young boy in the early 1960's. His family was more fortunate than most, as they were able to bring a suitcase and $100 when they fled Castro's newly formed revolutionary paradise.

Our dinner consisted of all-American fare: hamburgers, potato salad, fresh ears of sweet corn and watermelon. This is a menu shared with family and friends nationwide...while celebrating the birth of our beloved America ...on the Fourth of July.

We began with a simple discussion about our country, and the direction it has taken since Barack Obama came to power. We shared the usual complaints about the sour economy and liberal social engineering emanating from the rulers in Washington .

But then he said it. The sentence flowed naturally from our refugee guest. I assume it was unplanned. But it carried the weight of a freight train.

"You know when Castro took power, none of us knew he was a Communist".

We sat stunned. He continued, "Yes, we all thought he was a patriot, a nationalist. Before the revolution he didn't sound like a radical."

The comparison at this point was easy, and I interjected,
"You mean just like Barack Obama?"

He responded;
"Yes, just like Barack Obama." He continued, "We were all shocked as the government just continued to grab more power. First they said the revolution is over, so please turn in your guns. We all complied."

I also remember my uncle saying; “Castro will only nationalize some of the big industries. He will never come and take our family hardware store!!” But that is exactly what happened. Castro started with the sugar mills and the large industries, but they eventually came and knocked on the door of our family hardware store. My family had run this store for generations. They said we now own the hardware store, you work for us. And that four-bedroom home you own...it is now our property too. You have to move yourself and the five children into those two rooms of the house, because others are moving in here with you."

The lesson learned from this discussion, is a lesson most Americans refuse to hear. Political leaders can lie about their agenda and once in office, they can take totally unexpected turns.

If you had asked us three years ago if we thought General Motors or Chrysler would be nationalized, we would have never believed it. We could never contemplate a country where the rule of law, the most fundamental building block of a justice society...would be evaporating, just like it did in Castro's Cuba in the early 1960's.

But the news of injustice keeps increasing;
Black Panthers are not charged with wrong doing by the U.S. Department of Justice...because their crimes are against whites;
The bond holders of GM are stripped of their assets...without being given due process by the government;
Car Dealerships are closed with out due process;
Governmental leaders are bribed in full daylight...only to have all investigation of the crimes stifled...by the Attorney General;
The U.S. borders are over run with crime and illegal activity, and the leaders in D.C. act as if it is important to protect the lawbreakers...while
the innocent are killed and over run;
When local communities attempt to enforce the law, they are ridiculed...and threatened as racists and bigots. They are
sued by the very administration entrusted with enforcing the law.

Without the rule of law, the U.S. Constitution is a sham!!
Without the rule of law, our beloved America is swiftly becoming a country where only the well connected and politically powerful will be safe. As an author recently and so eloquently explained in her most recent book..."a culture of corruption has replaced honest government" (Michelle Malkin).

The only way this problem will be fixed, is by massive citizen action. All honest citizens that want to be treated equally, must come together...and demand that the favoritism, the bribes, the uneven enforcement of law...
end now!! And yes, it can happen if we all pull together.

PLEASE SEND THIS TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW!!
And...may God save the United States of America ! *

*...the very least you can do is forward this email. 6 million plus Jews didn't believe it could happen in Germany either!!! If you're a Christian in these United States of America ,
you're probably next on the list. History bares that out.

The real problem here is, the boy from Cuba did manage to make it to the U.S.
Today he and we will not have any place to escape to...except death!

And, for the most part...even though I'm forwarding this to you, probably less then 10 will even read it completely, let alone forward on to others.


Lake Ashton used to be a great place to live until Trich Adams,  Paul Pontious and the CDD control the community, Now it has gone to hell.  Make no bones about it.  Now they are banning the resistances if you say anything bad about  this place.AS A COUNTRY, HAVE WE BECOME THIS COMPLACENT? WILL YOU JUST TURN YOUR BACK AND LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES? I HOPE NOT...

YOU KNOW I DIDN'T, BECAUSE YOUR READING THIS, AND NOW I HOPE AND PRAY YOU DO FORWARD

Look what flew over the Akron air show... Some aircraft just get more beautiful with age!





Vote NO this November on the 3 liberal FL Supreme Court Judges!!! and let Gov. Scott appoint new ones!  It's our choice!



  
Subject: Florida Supreme Court
I suspect that many of us did not realize that in Florida our Supreme Court justices have to periodically run on the November ballot to get a "yes" or a "no" as to whether they should be kept on the court.  They are NOT appointed for life as are Federal judges.  The 3 judges on the ballot are extremely liberal. They were appointed before a Republican held the governor’s office. Of course, the Naples Daily News supports their retention.

IT IS MOST IMPORTANT THIS NOVEMBER TO REMEMBER TO VOTE "NO" ON ALL THREE OF THE SUPREME COURT JUDGES RUNNING!!!
Should they fail to get a passing vote, Republican Governor Scott will be able to replace them.
This is SO IMPORTANT - PLEASE pass it along to your lists of all those in Florida.

SMART ASS ANSWER OF THE YEAR
