Puerto Rico ping.
Please FreepMail me if you want on or off the list.
As a result, there is a HUGE anti-Chavez Venezuelan population, much of it wealthy, in South Florida, particularly in Weston, but also in such places as Key Biscayne, Coral Gables, and even Boca Raton. All the major exile groups supported Bush in 2004, though few are eligible to vote.
BTW: If you are ever in South Florida, make sure to go to the Don Pan chain of bakeries. In addition to great pastries, the Gorrin family, who I once had as a client, are major Chavez opponents.
And even they won't accept independence unless they get to keep their US citizenship. Which means they are posers. There is no independence movement.
Oh, and my favorite Cuban restaurant, Versailles, at Calle Ocho (8th street).
I hear you about Venezuelans in Weston. Have interests there.
Cheers,

Los Macheteros beg to differ.
Stay away from CITGO Bump!
Here's a little parcel, just assembled today:

I did not realize the disaffected Venezuelans were going to Puerto Rico, but now that I think about it, it makes perfect sense. And I think it's wonderful that Puerto Rico will have a segment of its population who are communist refugees. That's always healthy.

I hear ya. And the Cubans before the Vennnies keep us in reality.
Good read for later, bump.
Thats the big joke about the independence movement. They try to sell the idea that they could negotiate an independence that would allow people to retain their US citizenship.
When it comes right down to it, even the thugs don't want to give up their blue passport. They are all posers.
The U.S. Congress can revoke the statutory U.S. citizenship of every AINO born on the island the same way that they awarded it to the freeloaders in the first place.
We'll see how long medicine stays Socialized in Puerto Rico once the U.S. Taxpayers aren't around to keep the island from going bankrupt.
Maybe Venezuela will give Puerto Rico $20 to $30 billion dollars and 10's of thousands of jobs every year to replace what the U.S. Taxpayers are going to take back.
Aye, Bendito!

Errata: The radio station quoted is 630 AM NOT 680 AM. http://www.notiuno.com (Spanish language).
It figures that Fidel Jr would want to meddle in PR affairs. One more reason I am not going back to PR, unless it's to visit.
Don't worry, bro. We'll keep a tight leash on 'em so you can keep on visiting as you please.
Bendición,
