"'Stay where you are. This is not a time for people to try to be getting in the water and going either way,' Snow added."
What are the chances Cubans will heed this plea?

I think they need to check the ER hospital rooms in Houston, I bet he has checked himself in and is operating incognito getting free medical treatment.

"The White House and Congress, caught unaware by Fidel Castro's illness, prepared Wednesday for a possible showdown in Cuba "
Who says they were caught unaware? The AP? The AP has existed unaware since their inception!!!

The White House and Congress, caught unaware by Fidel Castro's illness...
----
The opening line from AP is so MSM, it is cliche. I would not bet on that line to save my soul...eyes have been on Castro for well over a year now, hoping he would fall down a flight of stairs...

Give it 5 more days until his carcus starts stinking up the joint and they tell us he is in fact - dead.

Mr. Rather looks young, while Mr. Castro looks almost the same (though a little fatter).

The White House and Congress, caught unaware by Fidel Castro's illness Someone's going to produce a memo from 2002 or something saying "Someday Castro might croak". The MSM will use this memo to say Bush was warned and didn't do anything to stop the bloodshed in the revolution following Castro's death.
Well, I'm sure the MSM will work with whatever happens or doesn't happen to make sure it's portrayed as Bush incompetence and/or evil deeds.

Considering Raul has been very quiet so far, and the most conciliatory in the past...I'm wondering if at 75 he is thinking about making world history after his brother dies, and reversing course.

It is long past time to wax the commies in Cuba. I just hope people are wary of American promises. Recall the Bay of Pigs. Recall the betrayal of S.Vietnam. Recall the Shia uprising against Saddam, encouraged by Bush I. And their subsequent slaughter. I might wait until the US commits troops to believe our government. Course I would support making shark food of the commies in Cuba. I wonder why we have waited so long? Let so many suffer and die, as if they weren't worth the effort. You don't think ole JFK made a deal do ya?

Didn't a bunch of the Cuban doctors ditch and defect somewhere in Venezuela when news of Castro's sudden illness broke?
