It's mourning in DUmmieland. Their hero, Fidel Castro, has resigned as president (dictator) of Cuba. The feelings of the DUmmies can be described as sadness mixed with grave concern that Cuba may be free again as you can see in this THREAD titled, ""Fidel Castro Resigns As President." Of course, Fidel will be succeeded by his brother, Raul. Ever notice how in hard core commie countries that succession is by blood as in feudal times? In North Korea Big Kim was succeeded by Li'l Kim. Yes, "scientific" communism needs to use feudal bloodlines to determine the succession of their regimes. No surprise here of the attitude of the DUmmies so let us watch them mourn the departure of Fidel in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, noting that his long-time desire to visit the mountainous Oriente province might come sooner rather than later, is in the [brackets]:
Fidel Castro Resigns As President
[Were his elections as president done with verifiable paper ballots?]
I hope this doesn't cause to much trouble. Bushie will try to claim credit.
[If Bushie and Fidel were both on the same ballot, we know who would receive the majority of the DUmmie votes.]
Already, in some dank little basement office at the Heritage Foundation, some little unsung author of the conservative ascendancy is squinting at his monitor as he types, "George W. Bush's greatest achievement came in his final year in office, when he singlehandedly forced Castro from power, much as his predecessor Reagan had torn down the Berlin Wall with his teeth."
[Typed the DUmmie squingting at his monitor between the empty pizza cartons in his dank little basement.]
Given that the right has rewritten history to credit Reagan with the collapse of the USSR (something he was only nominally involved in), expect this to be rewritten as a great triumph for Chimpy.
[Wasn't it Jimmy Carter who brought about the collapse of the USSR?]
The real danger is that once the death notice is posted, some hot heads in little Havana might try a Bay of Pigs - rematch.
[Danger for a DUmmie means opportunity for others. Hee! Hee!]
That's going to be the real danger: The US, goaded by those idiots in Miami has been running interference against Castro for fifty years, Lord knows what's going to happen now. Of course, if Raul's smart, he'll only take power as an interim measure in preparation for full elections.
[As open and honest as the elections in Cuba for the past 50 years?]
I don't think the Cuban populace is ready to revolt however. There are a number of good things happening to Cuba these days. However, it the idiots in Florida that have me worried. I just know that there will be some attempt to return to Cuba.
[Worried the DUmmie.]
Even if you love US imperialism and regard the mass slaughter of Iraqis as a good thing, you can at least see that Castro did nothing remotely similar. Or are you so truly deluded that you cannot admit to even that simple fact. Comparing a true monster like Chimpy to Castro is simply an admission of blind ignorance.
[But who is leaving power voluntarily after his 8 years is up?]
Probably every sitting president we have ever had... has had more people killed then Castro-maybe just maybe- Carter is an exception
[Posted the DUmmie from the Alternate Reality.]
May the liberalization of Cuba begin, and may the oppressive communist regime crumble and freedom flourish on that wonderful island.
[May we prepare for your tombstoning ceremony.]
Hopefully the U.S. will stay out of Cuba's business. Long live the Revolution! Capitalism will hurt the environment and the people of Cuba.
[Yes, the people of Cuba definitely want to keep things as they are...NOT!]
A shame. Hasta la victoria siempre, Fidel!
[Socialismo o Muerte!]
President George W. Bush can rightfully be refered to as the US President that outlasted Castro.
Cubans having the audacity to try to return to their homeland -- Horrors!
Check out my song parody suggestion above about Castro singing, “Don’t Cry For Me My Havana.” Oh and stay away from the lima beans for the next few weeks.
This guy simply has no clue. The Castro revolution was a terrible, ruthless, and bloody thing. I have heard many first hand accounts that would bring tears to your eyes. Communists always rationalize their killings, and I am sure Fidel sleeps easy at night..
Nah, he just told us we did not need to fear the Soviets anymore, just before they invaded Afghanistan............
*is speechless*
Shaking head in disgust. And they wonder why we call them DUmmies?????
Sometimes I honestly wonder if posters on DU mean to be taken seriesly. They seem more deluded today than usual.
Maybe he can run here, DUmmies. He might even be more liberal than Obama.
There are a number of FReepers with DU accounts who try to out DUmmie other FReepers and the real DUmmies.
Uh, here's a newsflash, DUmmie: President Reagan was VERY MUCH involved in the collapse of the Evil Empire.
Thats because Reagan did, despite the lies of the left.
The DUmmieland populace is, though. THE DUMMIES ARE REVOLTING!
Sometimes, the things the DUmmies write are so stunningly stupid they defy satire.
May the DE-liberalization of Cuba begin. Castro is the ultimate liberal--socialism, big government controlling everything, no freedom, anti-Christian. . . . That's liberalism in a nutshell.
Viva la Revolucion! Si, se puede! Piso mojado!
Exception? It was Carter who withdrew support from the Shaw of Iran, allowed the Ayatollah to return from exile, and start the entire Islamofacism Movement we're waging war against today.
Oh yeah, Carter's hands have no blood on them...
LOL...tell that to the thousands that Fiedel, Che' (el comandante) and Raul had put up against a wall and shot by firing squads. What an asshat!
I was thinking more of [Typed the DUmmie squingting at his monitor thru the crayon scribble on the screen.]
