Debbie Schlussel: Tragedy: Judge Gets it Right; Too Late for 15 Cubans
On this site, we detailed the absurd U.S. government decision to send 15 Cubans back to a life of hell in Cuba, because they were on a bridge instead of land when they reached America on January 4th.
We also praised federal Judge Federico Moreno for his initial statements regarding the bridge and the "wet-foot, dry-foot" policy for Cuban defectors. He said the bridge was "as American as apple pie." Yesterday, Judge Moreno, again, got it right, ruling that the 15 Cuban refugees were indeed on dry land when they reached the bridge.
Unfortunately, it is too late for them, as our government swiftly sent them back (while it holds on to Islamic terrorists and illegals, giving them years and years of appeals living here). There is no way Fidel Castro will allow these brave, defrauded (by our government) souls to return back to the U.S.
Cheers to Judge Moreno, jeers to the feds.
