Castro: U.S. Infecting Cuba With Swine Flu
Associated Press ^ | Oct. 31, 2009

Fidel Castro has found something to sneeze at in Washington's decision to ease visits by Cuban-Americans to his island: He says more Americans mean more swine flu.

The 83-year-old ex-president wrote in state-controlled newspapers on Saturday that many of Cuba's early cases of the virus were visitors from the United States and he used the occasion to take a jab at the U.S. embargo.

The head swine (flu) has infected Cuba since 1959. Hey, Fidel, do us all a favor and die.

U.S. Infecting Cuba With Swine Flu

Well, I'm not totally convinced the U.S. is not infecting the U.S. with swine flu... the U.S. is certainly infecting the U.S. with swine flu hype.

Considering the kind of Americans who love to frequent that country, I’m surprised El Maximo isn’t more concerned about syphilis.

Come now, Castro, you live in a worker’s paradise. You don’t need equipment and medicine from us; your superior Michael Moore approved medical system will provide you with everything you need.

Well then, we must owe Cuba billions and billions in reparations. By all means, Obama, send them the free money.

The only thing Cuba is infected with is Communism. The only certain cure is freedom. It’s a shame that Washington, D.C has come down with the same malady as Havana, but the prescription remains the same.

Yep, left wing actors are really CIA operatives sent to infect the Cuban people. If I were Cuba, I would grab them and hospitalize them for everybody’s safety.

It was better when it was Bushes fault. Even the looney left would believe it. & CBS would lead with it on the news.

If anyone should be able to recognize something involving swine, Fidel’s the guy.

Shelia Jackson Lee says people die from Swine Flu because we do not have a robust Public Option in America. Since Cuber has government run Health Care they are automatically protected from any and all harm. I wonder if people even die there at all?
