Prize-winning film's Cuban actors to seek asylum in Miami
Source: Reuters

A pair of lead actors from a prize winning film about escaping Cuba have emerged from hiding to confirm they are seeking political asylum in the United States.

The young Cuban actors went missing last week while en route to the Tribeca Film Festival in New York where they were due to appear at the movie's U.S. premiere.

Actress Anailin de la Rua and actor Javier Nunez, cast members of "Una Noche" ("One Night"), broke their silence Friday night in a TV appearance on the Miami-based Spanish language channel America TeVe.

In an interview with Reuters, de la Rua and Nunez said their life imitating art saga was not quite as dramatic in real life as the harrowing story depicted in the film.

Let's not pretend that they are seeking asylum so they can enjoy our " freedoms." No one is that naive anymore....if they ever were. It is seldom the proletariat who seeks asylum but rather those who have a skill or profession which will make them rich in the USA. But we will hear the spin from the right wing and those who still believe the propaganda.

... a couple of "defectors" show up, who will doubtless regale us with tales about how it "really is" down there. How so very... convenient.

That is too bad--it would be nice to work out a trade with Fidel:  We could send him thousands of compliant, communism loving DUers and occupiers in exchange for Cubans with a thirst for freedom.  Win win situation.

5. With all the horrible propaganda Cuba is not the destination of choice -

but folks are moving to Canada. Those who have skills/money anyway, others are trapped here.
So healthcare for all is unconstitutional big government, but religious regulations on my uterus are constitutional small government. Because that makes sense.

propaganda rather than discussing the issues honestly.

I wonder how much longer naaman fletcher will last at DUmmyland. The only worse crime he could commit is to say that Chavez might not be so wonderful too.

That just might work, we get rid of our dead beats who's idea of a day's work is to demand handouts, for people who will thrive on working and taking care of themselves, and who will defend freedom not demand that it be taken away from us.

Wonderful idea you have there  :cheersmate:

I agree. I've always said that the only thing you would have to do with ordinary Cubans, North Koreans, et al, is take them for a tour thru a grocery store here and then tell them if they want to be able to buy it, learn English, get a job, work hard, and they will be able to buy it.

I'd even donate money to help bring that about. I'm even willing to swap 5 to 1. Castro gets 5 DUmmies for every Cuban that would like to escape hell.

I can never get enough of that photo.

Clinton sent in the stormtropps about six months before the election in 2000, to seize Elian Gonzalez and ship him back to Cuba.

It infuriated Cuban-Americans in Florida like nothing since Fidel began destroying their country.

W picked up tens of thousands of Florida votes in due to that one picture, and won the state by only 500.

That one single photograph gave us eight years of the Great Bush Prosperity.

They just hate the fact that most of them come over here and vote Republican. :-)
Of course that also goes for those who escaped the former Soviet Union as well. A friends father was from Odessa, spent 5 years in the gulag, got here and was Regan's biggest fan.

The only card carrying John Birch Society member I've ever met was a Cuban refugee.  After coming to Miami at 17 years old he worked like a dog to keep his younger siblings together until his parents were able to get out of Cuba.  He worked his way through college, enlisted in the Army and attained Full Bull.

His family is some of the most patriotic Americans you'd ever find.  The US took them in and the entire family has showed their appreciation in tremendous ways while becoming personally prosperous.

20....I don't think Cuba is perfect nor was the USSR. But there are definitely things they accomplished - such as full employment and amazing health care. We can learn from that as we transition to Socialism - which we'll have to do sooner rather than later if we want to save this planet.

Libs love Illegal Mexicans because they vote Democrat, and hate Cubans because they vote Republican. Go figure. I can see the people of the dump at the mexican border helping the illegals over the fence now. And once they get them over the fence they bus them straight to the voting poll to vote democrat. At which point the government will give them free food, free medical, free housing, free money, free college for their 20 kids, and, in some cases, a free car (Even thought they don't have a drivers license. But hey, they don't need one of those annoying things anyhow).

Fidel would probably be happy to get this mass infusion of enthusiastic marxists.  It has probably been over 40 years since there has been more than a handful of genuinely enthusiastic commies in Cuba.
