A message to President Bush
Mr. President,
Should fidel castro offfer once again to send 1,500 doctors to assist with the victims of hurricanes Katrina and Rita, please kindly accept the offer. Then, once your staff and castro's have cooridnated the logistics, send 1,500 INS agents with visas in hand ready to offer political asylum to the plethora of those doctors that will undoubtedly ask for same.
Of course, this is neither here nor there, as fidel castro's offer is nothing short of hyperbole and grandstanding, for there is no way he would allow himself to be on the recieving end of such bad publicity.
Accepting castro's offer would put him and his revolution between a rock and a hard place. Send doctors and have a mass defection, or not send doctors and expose the lie.
Thank you.

Please Val, ask him also to rescind the inhumane executive order given by Clinton, the wet foot dry foot policy. And let me have the honor of being the first signer of your letter, after your signature, of course!

He can send us the doctors and the tons of medicine (thanks). But we'll send the planes to pick everything up (least we can do).
Of course, they won't be able to practice medicine right away 'cause they are not licensed in the US, but I'm sure we can help with that. They'll need green cards too....

Clinton or any Democrat, really don't like us Cubans. They just need our votes.
Clinton couldn't mask his disdain for 8 years.
Don't count on Bush changing this policy either.

I see the "antiwar" rally today in Washington is rife with the same old tired Commies, and has the new addition of Palistinians (previously charged with terrorism in the U.S.) & Haitians calling for Bush's impeachment.
Between the hurricane criticism, global warning blues, blame for oil price increases, the new show with Geena Davis playing a pseudo Hillary and now Blanco demanding billions from Washington, for "restitution" the left wing usefuls have been real busy as of late.
They even dragged out that doddering old fool Ramsey Clark from whatever rock he has been rotting under, who accuses Bush of "war crimes".
And accuses the U.S. of "genocide" in Iraq.
And as an added plus--not one of the women, including any in the crowd, is good-looking.
All are beat-up Hosers from the '60's.
There's got to be some inherent political traps in the wet foot / dry foot policy.

By the way, just make sure that these Cuban doctors are not ankle deep in flooded parts of New Orleans when they decide to defect.

1. I'm sure the part that isn't included is castro would want a guarantee that the "doctors" wouldn't defect.
2. Who wants doctors from a country where the dictator can demand X thousand be graduated in a particular year? I sure wouldn't want to be worked on by one.
