Castro’s Bizarro world

Only in Castro’s Cuba would this kind of BS pass for normal:
A Cuban student who appeared in a video last week grilling a top Cuban official is denying reports that he was arrested afterward, and maintains that his questions were aimed only at bettering socialism.
In the video CNN obtained and aired last week, [...]

Castro “playful?!?!?” WTF?!?!?

Just when I thought I’d heard it all, comes this MSM fawnfest for Castro:
Fidel Castro looked frail but alert and even playful in a series of official photographs taken during a meeting with Brazil’s president on Tuesday, the first images of the ailing Cuban leader released in about three months.

Just in time for Code Pinko’s Miami protest

against Luis Posada Carriles, Salon.com publishes a hit-piece that makes it sound as though Miami is awash in terrorists.
In Greater Miami, home to the majority of the nation’s 1.5 million Cuban-Americans, the presence of what could credibly be described as a terrorist training camp has become an accepted norm during the half-century of [...]

And after that, I want to interview Satan

It’s not enough that stupor-model-turned-useful-idiot Naomi Campbell interviewed Hugo Chavez. Now she wants to interview Fidel Castro:
Having interviewed Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez for GQ magazine, supermodel-turned-journalist Naomi Campbell is now making her best efforts to land one-to-one talks with Cuban dictator Fidel Castro and French president Nicolas Sarkozy.

Dr. Oscar Elias Biscet calls Castro apologists at UN to account

Well, in a hypothetical post by Henry Gomez of Babalu Blog, anyway, the Useless Nations and the media are called to account for their tacit–and in some cases, wide open–support of Castro’s regime. Here’s a choice snippet:
