I hope the judge throws the book at them!

These anti-American scum want to import Communism here. They should have let him rot in Cuba.

Wherein, they will surely find paradise. It’s all been arranged.

[TASMANIANRED]

Revoke his passport..and make him stay in Cuba.

Leftist teacher supreme.

[stephenjohnbanker]

They will see abject poverty, but the teacher will blame it on the U S.

[pissant]

Are frijoles still cheap, I hope?

Nat Turner. With a name like that I would assume he has a chip on his shoulder.

[kitkat]

Too bad they let them back in this country.

Are ‘55 Chevrolets still powered by wood-burning stoves? Is prostitution for European tourists still the #1 hard currency source? Are the shelves still bare in most stores? Yep, quite the “paradise” ain’t it?

The reason for the law forbidding travel to Cuba is to hide the fact that it’s utopia, heaven on earth. So says the leftist idiots.

[pissant]

It will be again....soon.

“the Department of Education seems to be taking the episode rather less seriously than it should ....the DOE has yet to intervene.” - from the editorial

Pedagogue “Nat Turner” likely has protective coloration, so the Bush administration will adopt “the bigotry of low expectations” here.

[LibFreeOrDie]

Not surprising, considering this was on the official school calendar:

March 17, 2007

Event: Protest Trip to DC

Information: Beacon goes to protest Iraq in D.C. This is a one-day trip.

"protective coloration"

Now, THAT'S good! ROFL.

Hey, If Pelosi could go and negotiate with Assad. They figured the could go to Cuba.
Maybe we should refuse them entrance back into the U.S. Send them back to Castro with Pelosi as their Nanny. I’m sure that if Fidel is still alive, Nancy may offer him a Monica.

It is not unheard of for college faculty to go to Cuba. I am aware of at least one person who went to Cuba shortly after retiring from the Fed and becoming faculty of a land-grant university. He is a very conservative person politically, but the trip apparently offered more in the way of personal gain.

NPR has sponsored several ‘educational’ trips to Cuba during past fund raising drives. They experienced the Cuban paradise and simultaneously contributed big bucks to NPR. (Words fail.)

Just in case anyone feels like sharing the love, is all. ;)

Not at all likely. They will be shielded from the real Cuba abd get a very controlled touriswt view. It would be like wisking a visitor to the U.S. off to Beverly Hills or the Hamptons and then passing off that experience as typical of American life.
