Ozzie Should Have Stayed In Chicago

" Ozzie Guillen should have stayed in Chicago. He can say whatever he wants about Fidel Castro here.

Guillen told Time magazine that he “loves” and respects Castro for staying in power for over 50 years. Unfortunately for Guillen, he is now the manager of the Miami Marlins. Miami -- especially the part of Miami from which the Marlins are trying to attract fans -- is as much a part of Cuba as it is of the United States. As a newcomer to the community, Guillen may not have understood that. Guillen is also a citizen of Venezuela, where Castro is embraced by President Hugo Chavez, a man Guillen has referred to as a friend.

One thing you need to understand about the Miami Cubans: they do not believe in freedom and democracy. They’re fascists, still sore about losing their country to a communist. Before Castro’s revolution, Cuba was overseen by a horribly corrupt, violent military dictator named Fulgencio Batista, who took power in a coup that prevented an election he was about to lose. If you’ve seen The Godfather II, you have a good picture of Batista’s Havana: he was in the pocket of Yankee mobsters who operated casinos and brothels, and used the capital as a drug-smuggling port.
