Juanes in Cuba

Colombian singing star Juanes performed a free live concert in Havana Cuba yesterday for a crowd estimated at 1.1 million people. 'Art triumphs over tyranny' should be the cheer in Miami today. It is, for the young people.

But the old Mustache Pete Cubans were out yesterday, throwing Juanes CDs into Calle Ocho in Little Havana in Miami and ran over them with a steamroller. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen called the concert a "triumph for the Cuban regime" because Juanes did not cite a list of human rights violations during the show. Only the old farts believe her, as they watched more done in one day to end the dictatorship than their failed policies have accomplished in 50 years.

The times they are a-changin down south. What will break the old right wing Miami Cuban power base will be when the Castro regime falls during Obama's administration. Nixon and Kissinger opened up Russia and China by offering what they wanted, Levis and Pepsi-Cola. The same will work in Cuba. Many Americans believe that these Miami Cubans don't want change at all. Big frogs in a little pond become little frogs in a big pond. And you can hear the croaking loud, loud, loud today.
