It is my time, and first of all it is nice to hear the gentlewoman quote statements that she has no facts to back up. The last one, well I am sure CNN will deal with that issue and I am very confident that CNN will get their way in doing what they have to do. That is why they are there, that is why the community in Miami accepted CNN and the Government accepted CNN, the fact that CNN will be unbiased and will report properly, and I have no problems with CNN telling me what is going on in Cuba because it will tell me what is bad about Cuba, but I suspect for the first time CNN may tell me there are some good things in Cuba which we have never been told by any of the Miami journalists.
