A little food for thought. Looking back to when Castro was in the Cuban mountains with his guerillas in the 50s, then Florida Senator George Smathers blew the whistle and pointed out that Fidel had been trained by Russian communists and would implement his teachings if he took power. No one would listen to the senator. The rest, as they say, is history.
What others see plainly, we
AMERICAN'S often ignore.
*Here's
something to think about.*
I remember asking dad
about Castro when I was about 9 years old. 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
there.
Cuba was fairly close and in the news a lot. The
Cubans were asking the same question!
Ike was president.
This past
July, we had the pleasure of sharing a summer barbecue with a refugee from Cuba.
Our dinner conversation was starkly different than
most.
Our dinner consisted of all-American fare: hamburgers, potato
salad, watermelon and fresh ears of sweet corn. 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 came naturally. 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 remember my uncle saying after it started; “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 nice, large four-bedroom
home you own...it is now our property also, and...you can move yourself and five
children into two rooms of the house, because others are moving in 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 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 bondholders of GM
are stripped of their assets...without due process by the government!
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.
Obama and
Eric Holder are two very sick and dangerous men.
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 Michelle Malkin has so
eloquently explained in her recent book...a culture of corruption has replaced
honest government.
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
here.
PLEASE SEND
THIS TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW!! And...may God
save the United States of America!
*...the least you can do is
forward this email. Six million plus Jews didn't believe it would happen in
Germany either!
If you're a Christian in these United States of America,
you're next on the list.
The real problem here is, the boy from Cuba did manage to make it to the U.S. We will not have any place to escape to... And, for the most part...even though I'm forwarding this to recipients, only 5 or 10 will even read it
