I'm constantly amazed at the vitriol fired off at Fidel after 50 years. Fifty hears, people. So, he's a socialist and were capitalists. BFD. That we haven't found enough common ground as humans to trade, even in a limited capacity, with Cuba is a sorry reflection on right wing lunacy. Instead of a partner we get a nemesis. I mean, we trade with China, hell our whole economy is pretty much based on trade with China; a country 100 times more malevolent towards their own people than Fidel's regime. What the Hell is wrong with this country that priorities are so askew.

I won't believe he's dead until I read it in Pajama's Media.

Castro's Cuba was never much of a threat throughout his reign as the Head Macho Man. The Cuban Missile Crisis, which required no involvement what-so-ever on his part was his greatest Socialist moment. After that he remained a permanent orphan of the USSR until that country dissolved. Castro was a mere pimple on the ass of this hemisphere's progress. He was a good local foil to point at every time someone started blaring about the virtues of socialism.
Pure Socialist machismo was unfortunately directed to his own people to keep him in power. Guess that would make him a hero in some circles, everyone in Cuba was equally miserable, except for a selected few. To some, he was a great leader, ruling over a great socialist paradise, loved by all. Truth is, he was a brutal dictator, drove Cuba into economic ruin, and kept people in constant fear of losing their lives at his hand.

Viva Fidel! You betcha, buddy.

Castro's Condition... Isn't grave condition, as in ready for the grave, descriptive enough? You can't get worse than grave. Once he's dead will we be hearing that he's very, seriously dead? ...
