I just LOVE that.
My favorite part was that the Hialeah relatives were already there with milk and food. THAT'S how they should be welcomed every time! =D

What bothers me is the word MIGRANT.Will someone tell me why we allowed them to labels us migrants?
We are political Refugees, always were and will be until Cuba is FREE!

Jewbana,


I dont really want to open up this can of worms again, but I think they are labeled "migrants" because somelook to return to Cuba the first chance they get to assist their families. Thus, the term political refugee is rather a misnomer.

JMHO.

Val, You are actually right. Those who come just to go back and show off are migrants. Those who come and want to help their families knowing that eventually it will trickle down to castro yet want to alleviate those who are "truly" suffering are refugees. BTW its can of gusanos not worms. Hope your mom is doing better. I lost my dad due to heart problems years ago. Its a relief to know that she beat that problem.
