May he rot in hell and may no one shed a single tear for him, that murderous, worthless, evil SOB.

Are we nearing the end? Mebbe, mebbe not. Personally I won't believe the bastard's dead until I see them drive a stake through his heart and fill his mouth with garlic.
I mean that in the nicest possible way.

The American left will be sad to see him go.
There will be partying in the streets in Miami for days when he croaks.
Raul just won't cut it.

Let's see how good the Cuban health-care system is, though I bet he's getting foreign medical aid.
To: tdewey10
Very interesting that it was announced. I tend to agree with the posts about 'maybe not expecting to survive and/or already assumed room temperature.'

We can hope, for the Cuban people.
Indeed. I hope the liberation of the Cuban people from their monster rulers comes soon.
To: tdewey10
I wonder what Chavez is going to do about all this. He wants Cuba to stay a communist paradise.

I wonder if the commie trusts his brother Raul not to pull the plug on him?
He probably already has.
