Versailles Beat- New Blog

Versaillesedit

Elías Santiago and Cheo Valdés met at Versailles restuarant one day several months ago when they both joined in chasing away Code Pinko which was there causing a ruckus about Posada-Carrilles.  They joined forces; Cheo learned how to use the computer and they decided to start a blog to join in spreading the word about the fight for Cuban freedom.

Cheo is from Cuba and lives in Miami where he established a successful nursery business and Elías is from Oriente, from a long line of tabacaleros. He opened a cigar shop in Little Havana and his kids now run it.

From Cheo's email: "Our aim is to promote liberty and freedom in Cuba and to rein-in the erosion of our liberty here at home through an open dialogue. As such, we may discuss anything from Cuban politics and local political gossip, to national and international issues to advance the cause of liberty in a witty, entertaining, and educational manner."

Why I Blog for a Free Cuba

  • Why I Do This
    The purpose of my blog is to promote awareness of the current situation in Cuba and to bring its history to the attention of those who do not know anything, or little, about it. With that in mind, I am dedicated to disseminating this information without interference from those who want to promote castro's regime, che guevara, communism, socialism, or attack the Bush administration or the freedom-loving posters who may comment here or myself. That means I reserve the right to delete comments I feel are inappropriate or that are counter-productive to my purpose, or to put it simply- I censor, just like ths castro regime that sympathizers love. Besides, if you are a communist, you'll understand all about censorship.
