Fidel Castro: GOP race is ‘idiocy, ignorance’

By: Mackenzie Weinger January 25, 2012 01:33 PM EST

The Republican presidential race is “the greatest competition of idiocy and ignorance that has ever been,” former Cuban president Fidel Castro wrote in an opinion piece on Wednesday.

Castro made his comments in his latest column of “reflections” on a Cuban government website, attacking the Republican candidates two days after their debate in Florida.

“The selection of a Republican candidate for the presidency of this globalized and expansive empire is – and I mean this seriously – the greatest competition of idiocy and ignorance that has ever been,” he wrote, according to The Associated Press.

Don’t care for Fidel. I wish he’d die so that we can have trade with Cuba.

We need to play a game of “Who Said That?”. Put up a quote like “The Republican presidential race is the greatest competition of idiocy and ignorance that has ever been” and try to guess if it was said by the DNC, Castro or Achmedinejad.

And how does what Fidel Castro thinks about America’s GOP presidential race become important or newsworthy, Politico? Because Politico writers think it is important? Politico’s writers need to pull their heads out of their butts.

If I was a republican presidential candidate, I would wear Castro's comments as a badge of honor.

Fidel Castro is an exhibit of what happens when you live in the fantasy world of the Unicorn Farm. When you live in an alternate universe you will say and do anything. In Castro’s case, he has killed lots of people because of his fantasies.

Brother Raul needs to kick as well. I noticed from history that after one dictator falls, there’s usually one more dictator immediately followed by a reformer (younger generation who sees the evil of communism).

True, but the same thinking exists at both the AP and Politico. There’s no real difference between AP and Politico . . . it’s the same drivel.

Unspeakable! Satan is most certainly has control of the word today! When will people realize that the spirits of good and bad are always at war, and the winner depends on the people? Ignore God and Satan will concentrate on you too! I guarantee it!

This was directed to a different thread about a man who stabbed a puppy 11 times. How it ended up here is beyond me, but the message is true no matter where it ends up!

Does he feel that way because he knows that the “fix is in” and his fellow traveler will be “re-elected”, just like Hugo the Loon?

They tried to fix it in 2000, and that’s why they were so POed that it failed, they won in Minnesota with Al “Unfunny” Franken in a shady way, as well as several other areas...but why should anyone need to show an ID to vote? (yes, it’s sarcasm at the end)
