p.s.

you all are making excuses for the Cubans because you say they are escaping tyranny, whatever, which is the same excuse the millions of illegals coming across the borders are using. How do you think it’s any different? If you’re going to make excuses for one peoples, you open the door for others.

U.S. law does not recognize that a Honduran or Guatemalan or Mexican is “escaping tyranny,”so your slippery-slope argument is inapposite. Don’t confuse the Obama Administration’s violation of U.S. immigration laws and unconstitutional dereliction of duty in the case of illegal aliens crossing our border with Mexico with upholding a federal law that recognizes that people escaping from Cuba are a special case.

I will always see a difference between people walking across the border to get away from mere disfunction versus people escaping at great risk to escape marxist tyranny. The Cubans have always been a special case.

You’re probably talking to the wrong crowd. Most people here love Cubans. I do, anyway.
