re: #101 Sea Mexican!

There’s this quote that I find particularly idiotic:

This should be plastered all over Florida. 1) Not speaking Spanish hasn’t stopped anyone from claiming Hispanic heritage. By all means, Jennifer Lopez barely speaks Spanish and no one is trying to revoke her Puerto Rican creds. Same goes with hundreds of people from all walks of life. 2) That type of revisionism might not play well with Cuban’s oral history.

I’m curious as to what reaction the Cuban/Cuban-American community had to Steve King’s inane tweet? To me, it sounds vaguely like an insult/backhanded complement couched in inapt anti-Castro rhetoric. Which is strange, as most Republicans have tended to more-or-less exempt Cubans from their general anti-Hispanic prejudice - “victims of communism” and all that.
