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. 

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.
