The Estefan “Escandalo!”–Et tu Gloria?

"More disappointing for many is that "our Gloria” had traditionally comported herself above and apart from the typical hypocrisy and grandstanding of the celebrity herd. Gloria’s late father was a military hero. As-mentioned, he volunteered for the Bay of Pigs invasion, and was wounded during the desperate battle against overwhelming Soviet firepower. A few years later he volunteered for two tours of duty in Viet-Nam and was wounded again. He died a lingering death (Agent Orange was suspected) while nursed by his loving and devoted daughter.

Imagine how the typical leftist celebrity Diva might have parlayed that tragedy into some America-bashing!

But Gloria Estefan would have none of that. Instead she again caused her fan’s hearts to swell, and many eyes to dampen. “My whole family paid a heavy price for freedom,” she explained. “My father fought for those freedoms both in Cuba and in Viet-Nam..I’m not about to let anyone stomp on his ideals..How can I forget what Communism did to my country and my family?”

Entire intransigence here at Big Hollywood.

    Has anyone been able to get their hands on the guest list? If the whole thing was "transparent" why not make it public?

    I've yet to hear from my friend. I'll post whatever I find out about the estefan's ass kissing "dinner" as soon as I do.

    So what? Now she's a Marxist, comunista, and etc.Que pena atacar a una patriota Cubana!
    Ya basta!!

  • FreedomForCuba

    Patriota Cubana?

    Tu no sabes lo que es una patriona Cubana aunque la tuvieras enfrente de ti.

    Translation (for our Anglo readers):

    You wouldn’t know a Cuban patriot even if you had it in front of you.

  • maristas60

    Patriota. Persona que tiene amor a su patria y procura todo su bien.

  • Mr. Mojito

    Next time she shows up at Versailles ... I hope someone spits in her cafecito :)

  • pototo

    Maristas needs to go to patriots school and repeat the last grade as she doesn't have a clue.

    As for the Marxist-Communist Gloria I am sure that the DNC thanks her profusely. As a matter of fact Bill Clinton who was the official mouthpiece of the DNC this week said volumes regarding this topic and his timing was uncanny. When asked about taking Elian from his family in the violent manner that he did he said " I would do it all over again."

    Thats where Gloria's money is going.

    Ditto pototo,

    Please let me add the following,

    The saddest part of all is that the great majority (if not all) of the real Cuban patriots are six feet underground today. The memories of their contribution to Cuba are recorded in history books or other publications.

    Gloria Estefan is not and will never be a Cuban patriot, she's only an entertainer.

    Marista I sincerely sugggest you read Alberto's latest post as he very clearly stated the obvious regarding the Estefans situation today.
