Good read :)
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.
 
This refugee came to the United States as a young boy in the early 1960s. 
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, 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.
 
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.  Also, 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 1960s.
 
But the news of injustice keeps increasing.  Black Panthers are not charged with wrongdoing by the U.S. Department of Justice because their crimes are against whites.  The bondholders of GM and Chrysler are stripped of their assets without due process by the government.  Franchise owners stripped of ownership. Some of these families paid into the MILLIONS of dollars for these franchises and they were stripped of ownership by our
Obama run government.  True.


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 overrun 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 overrun.   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 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.

Given Time, Obama will come for you too.
