March Poll Question: How Will Castro Die?

How do you think Castro will die? Let us know in our new poll for March, below.

How will Castro die?

No form of death is good enough for this SOB

Of natural causes

Fecal poisoning

He’s already been dead for the last 6 months.

Of, ahem, “food” poisoning ;-)

The Grim Reaper will simply decide the Cuban people [...]

Playing for keeps

The Sporting News today published an interesting story about two friends who grew up together playing baseball in Cuba–and wanting to come to America, to play for the Atlanta Braves.
One of the friends, Brayan Pena, snuck away from the Castro goon watching him at a baseball competition in Venezuela, by asking [...]

“Repression in Cuba increases”

Despite all the noise that Raul isn’t like his brother Fidel, a Castro is still a repressive tyrant. Check out this AP story on Yahoo! News:
Repression is increasing in Cuba under the control of Raul Castro, and the domination of the government by his brother, Fidel, is nearing an end, Bush administration officials [...]

Fidel Castro feels fine, Cuba doesn’t

The ratfink Castro has stuck his nose out of his rathole today just enough to remind the world he continues to pollute it with his presence. Here’s a funny quote from an AP article today about the bearded dictator:
“…his country is running smoothly without him at the helm.”
Does that mean AP is admitting it [...]

Cuban spies get max sentence, woohoo!

It looks as though the judge “threw the book at ‘em” after all:
A college professor who pleaded guilty in a federal case involving allegations that he and his wife spied for Cuba’s communist government and betrayed their fellow Cuban-American exiles by passing along information about community figures was sentenced Tuesday to five years in [...]

Cuban Freedom 23, Castro 0

Score one for Cuban freedom. Or make that, 23:
23 Cuban migrants arrived in a makeshift boat early Tuesday morning at Higgs Beach in Key West. The group, which included two children, all appeared to be in good health. The boat used to make the trip appeared to be the hull of a sailboat, without [...]

Throw the book at ‘em!

That’s what these commie spies deserve. Heck, if the shoe were on the other foot and our spies had been caught in Cuba, they’d’ve been summarily executed without even the benefit of a sham trial:
A college professor who pleaded guilty in a federal case involving allegations that he and his wife spied for [...]

Mario Chanes de Armas, RIP

A true Cuban hero and patriot is no longer with us. Here is an excerpt of his obit from the Miami Herald:
Mario Chanes de Armas, the Cuban political prisoner who served the longest sentence in modern times and symbolized the struggle for civic freedom in 20th century Cuba, will be remembered today with [...]

Castro exports his doctors–unintentionally

Wow, I’m pleasantly surprised. The San Francisco Chronicle actually published an article today with the title Cuban doctors defect from Venezuela posts. I’m shocked they’d admit that.
Of course, the piece doesn’t come without the typical Castro apologia about “free healthcare,” but they also mentioned this:
Cuban doctors are not permitted to talk [...]

Castro, Al Gore and Reuters

Okay, Reuters published an article today about Castro’s Cuba giving Al Gore’s flick An Inconvenient Truth a ringing endorsement. This one has so many angles to address I feel like a geometry teacher. Here’s an excerpt, my comments in parentheses and bold italics:
Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore doesn’t know if his climate [...]
