Ending a Vicious, Cruel and Wicked Law
Imposed on Our Families

The bold decision taken by the Miami-Dade County Democratic Executive Committee in defense of the Cuban American family values, is without any doubt, the most courageous political decision taken in this city since 1959. The arbitrary and cruel decision of the White House, that pretended to dismember, redefine our family structure and restrict our visits to only once every three years, have brutally backfired on the miniscule, isolated gang of senile, vindictive, ultra-right wing Cuban-Americans, masterminds and proponents of this monstrosity.

This valiant decision taken in the belly of the anti-Cuba monster, deserves a massive and public Thank You, from all of us, defenseless victims of a few sick minds. Justice have prevailed with this resolution, but the Spade of Damocles continue to hang over our heads and the wellbeing our families.

It is imperative, that this first step be followed by more decisive actions, until this social aberration is wiped out of our society. We have been bought, sold and duped by all Presidential hopeful in the past, by dining an black beans at a known joint, saying a few words in Spanish and promising, if elected, our triumphal return to Cuba.

In this new Presidential era, all or most candidates will be coming, especially to Miami, in search of money and political support. We know and have identified who are with our families and who are against them! They must be challenged publicly on this moral issue. No hair splitting, double talk, sound bites or ambiguity can be accepted from anyone seeking our support.

We know where the most evil candidates live and sleep. It will be an absolute betrayal to our mothers, fathers, sisters and siblings, not to vote them out of office as we can. We have had enough of the Ros Lethinen, Diaz Balart, Mel Martinez, Bob Melendez, most of those State and County elected officials and who they represent, to be fooled once again.

All of those who rejoiced over the pain and suffering of our families, all of those who have clamored for the perfect storm to wipe Cuba off the map, must be remembered when casting our vote. Although it was used for a macabre purpose, President George W. Bush said it before, you are with me or with the terrorists. Those named above and many more, actively terrorized our family with their political and legislative actions.

History will be taking note of them and us. With this, Joe Garcia has done more than his rightful share. It is up to each of us, to decide on what side of history we want to be the day of judgment.
