Fidel Castro Dead at 90...

[OldLady]

He could be admired for his big brass balls, to thumb his nose at the U.S. of A for 50 years, survive all our assassination attempts and economic sanctions that probably didn't help the country achieve prosperity.
He could be reviled for taking away the freedom of his people and murdering his detractors. All dictators of a communist bent seem to need to travel that road. Which makes one wonder, what's wrong with communism if you can't get the majority to willingly go along?
Anyway, hopefully this is one more country that will shed the repressiveness of a totalitarian dictatorship and come toward the center where a blend of capitalism and communism meld into what is best for everyone. Like EUROPE has already done.

"Castro is a legendary icon of fighting oppression and a historic leader for freedom" - Nancy Pelosi aide Walid Joumblatt

Some leaders are just naïve

Like your typical socialist/communist the fuck up was proud of all the death and despair he forced on his own people… Fact

I guess the best thing is the idol of the fucked up "Che" progressives in this country is dead… That can only be a good thing.

Che has been dead for decades and he's still popular, I guess Castro will go the same way

There are worse things than death, living without the chance of any sort of freedom/individuality is one of them.

[Rexx Taylor]

and here come the daily stories on all news outlets, leading with "Fidele Castro Is Still Dead"

 

[QuickHitCurepon]

I was just talking with my wife about Castro, and she told me that in 1972 at an assembly in Concepcion, Chile, she watched Castro give a lecture at the University of Concepcion. To my dismay, my wife still seems to be impressed by what she saw, as her face lit up a little while she remembered. She said that she clapped enthusiastically when it was over.

Will Obama order flags to half staff?

Former Cuban leader Fidel Castro dies - CNN.com

What a shame that Obama didn't wait to normalize relations with Cuba by EO until after Castro died. We might have got something in return other than the middle finger.

A wealthy country should be asking a poor country for what exactly? Sorry if you lost your casinos and brothels.

The return of US citizens that have warrants for their arrest would be a start. I realize that ears can do nothing wrong in your mind, so anything else would I mention would be wasted on your closed mind.
