Mr. Speaker. I have a number of angry constituents and I think a number of the Members do. too. They are angry because of the apparent openarms and openheart policy that the President enunciated having to do with the Cuban refugees. They are not angry because of his policy. but of the conduct of these persons after they have come into this country. I am making reference specifically to those Cubans who are rockthrowing malcontents. fencejumping. and beefing about our policies in this country in not processing them rapidly enough. It seems to me. Mr. Speaker. these ingrates could well be loaded on a boat. taken down to Guantanamo. that is our U.S. base. and pushed through the front gate back into Cuba where they belong.
