Last week on “Larry King Live” Michael Moore took the high road. He simply could not bring himself to pronounce judgment on the Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s tirades. “I’m a white guy,” explained the rotund film-maker. “And I mean, you have to ask yourself, Larry, what’s it like to be black in America? . . . And I do not believe, as a white guy, that I am in any position to judge a black man who has had to live through that.”
“Florida’s Cubans” writes Moore in his book, “Downsize This,” are responsible for “sleaze and influence-peddling in American politics. In every incident of national torment that has deflated our country for the past three decades — Cuban exiles are always present and involved.”
Moore himself denounces Republicans as “people who hate . . . people who get up at 6 in the morning trying to figure out which minority group they’re going to screw today.”
In blanket-trashing all Cubans who for some crazy reason rejected free healthcare for U.S. freedom, Moore also trashes the longest suffering political prisoners of the century. Cuban-Americans like Roberto Martin-Perez, Mario Chanes De Armas, Eusebio Penalver, Angel de Fana, who all spent spent almost 30 years in Fidel Castro and Che Guevara’s gulag. That’s more than three times as long a Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and Natan Sharansky spent in Josef Stalin’s gulag.
Think about it: the very things people like Moore, Sean Penn, Danny Glover, the Dixie Chicks, etc. say and write for free publicity, Fidel Castro and Che Guevara’s prisoners refused to sign to save their lives, or to end two decades of daily torture. Yet the Democrats’ pet walrus sneers at them from his Upper West Side pad as “wimps, cowards and crybabies.”
These “exiles” cut and ran, then turned around and screamed for Castro’s plentiful Cuban land and hard-earned luxuries from the comfort of their Florida vacation homes, bought with drug money sold to rich, enlightened Thinker college students. No. Reagan-era yuppies!
True heroes are, say, illegal immigrants from Mexico who brave the US’ bullets to earn meager dollars tax-free (as healthcare should be). Most neither have the time nor can afford to learn English, even after 2-3 generations in-country.
