Sh*t Cuban-American Hardliners Say

Who needs racist and bigoted idiots stereotyping Cuban-Americans when you have Humberto Fontova of Babalu Blog.

Here he is [Google cache] describing Cuban-Americans who support family back on the island and attend concerts held by Cubans here in the U.S. as "New Men and Women."

Get our New Men and Women to use what little money they haven't sent us in remittances or spent on gold chains, five-inch fake fingernails and hair-coloring to buy tickets to attend concerts by our regime-sanctioned musicians... [Emphasis SFDB]

So the Cubans who have recently immigrated to the U.S., some by risking their lives by crossing the Straits of Florida, and want to take care of family left behind are "New Men and Women" who spend their money on "gold chains, five-inch fake fingernails and hair-coloring," according to Fontova, pictured at right.

I understand Fontova's whole "we're upset because you supposedly undermine hardliner's efforts" thing, but to denigrate and disparage fellow Cuban-Americans, people who share a unique heritage, indeed, your "brothers and sisters," simply because they don't share the same viewpoint on a controversial issue and want to take care of family?

Damn.
