simplicimus: Well, if anyone understands elections, it would be Fidel Castro.

The man giving good advice from the insane asylum says, "they put me here because I'm crazy, not stupid." Castro has been sitting there watching us for decades, he might have a little insight.

Plus, objectively, he's not wrong.

As translated by:



/Fox said it, it must be true? oh, only when it's convenient.

Obviously he's never seen Celebrity Boxing.

Well, if Castro was an idiot, he'd have been killed decades ago.

Major GOP donors agree with him.

Isn't that what everyone is thinking?

On the one hand, even broken clocks are right twice a day.
On the other hand, Jersey Shore.

Sounds like he needs

BRAIIIIIIINNNNNNNS

/sorry, low-hanging fruit

No wonder Romney wants to assassinate this guy.

I_C_Weener: Isn't he the Cuban that Democrats have been trying to kill since the Bay of Pigs? I'd think he'd love a Republican president.

There's a reason Democrats have been called "Useful Idiots" by the enemies of America.

"The selection of a Republican candidate for the presidency of this globalized and expansive shrinking empire is the greatest competition of idiocy and ignorance that has ever been."

FTFY, Fidel.

randomjsa: There's a reason Democrats have been called "Useful Idiots" by the enemies of America.

Republicans do like calling them that, but let's be fair here anyone who gets into the partisan left/right bickering can be categorized as such.

Cuba has unemployment of 1.7% and poverty levels of 1.5%.

Heard on right wing talk radio this morning.

Caller: My husband voted for Obama last time, and said that if it were Gingrich vs. Obama, he'd be first in line to vote for Obama again. But if it were Romney vs. Obama, he'd most likely grit his teeth and vote for Romney.

Host: This just shows why Romney cannot be allowed to be the candidate - he's too much like Obama.

Translation: Romney can't be their candidate, because more people might vote for him.

Karac: Heard on right wing talk radio this morning.

So what you're saying is that to some Republicans, winning isn't everything?

The banana republic dictator is absolutely right.

I might have tacos tonight in his honor.

Or perhaps... A cuban sandwich?

Listening to right wing talk radio? You poor soul. You don't look beyond the veil. Only madness lies there.

Anyway, Castro is correct. What is scary is that any of them actually got this far. What are old school Republicans thinking? Do they look in horror upon this deranged circus?

Has the Obvious tag been deported?

Shaggy_C: Cuba has unemployment of 1.7% and poverty levels of 1.5%.

We farked up when we let communism live on a resource-rich tourist paradise practically designed to serve as an experimental laboratory for government. Castro's government has been successful, in spite of our kinda best efforts. Strictly by the numbers, it's actually going a lot better over there.

Seems like an authoritarian communist system actually works when applied to a small, homogenous population in the Caribbean. Must be why we're not allowed to go there.

Is that what bin Laden, Qaddafi, and a bunch of Somali pirates and kidnappers think?

Republicans talk tough. Democrats actually get shiat done.

Hey now, that's not fair. Reagan sold arms to the enemies of America and turned tail like a scared little girl when attacked in Libya. That's getting something done.

The best defense of the Republican candidates that Fox can offer is that Castro doesn't like them?

Telling.

Not to worry, Gingrich's VP selection, Marco Rubio will save us from Fidel and secure the Hispanic vote for the GOP. Why you think all that Nevada casino PAC money is going to Newt?



We gonna liberate them with casinos and the loosest slots in town!

I don't think the Cuban government "works", really, or has been particularly "successful".

Yes, the GOP and right wing talk radio hosts have been saying that for years. What does that have to do with Cuba?

You need to be pretty cunning and intelligent to make it as El Presidente for 50 years. Maybe he has a point?

I'd rather be born poor in Cuba than be born poor in America.

lol, very true, I think the democrats are better at implementing republican policy than actual republicans. And they do it with thunderous libtard applause!

randomjsa is right, democrats and Obama supporters are "useful idiots".

///enemy of America

FTFC: "Another fine example of the type of leaders who praise and support Obama.......that should speak volumes...."

Interesting how members of Fox Nation can take a quote that doesn't mention BO and turn it into praise and support.

"Castro made his comments in his latest column of "reflections" on a Cuban government website, attacking the Republican candidates two days after their debate in Florida."

is there something from the 80s I am forgetting?

Honest to God I could have sworn he last year.

Flab: This must be why Gingrich said on Univision, yesterday that he would consider bombing Cuba.

He must have been talking to John Bolton who said that Cuba was manufacturing deadly viruses in their ovens to infect the American population

You should have chicken, black beans, and rice instead of tacos.
