A friend of mine’s Grandfather had something to do with the Bay of Pigs. His Grandmother swore she couldn’t die until Castro was dead. Sadly, she missed by a year or so.
My friend is in celebration mode today.
I am sure our current President has a tingling down his leg to attend this funeral as the head of state. T-54 and counting.
Hollywood reported to be in mourning..
I’ll nearly bet they are! Give them a high-five for me, too!
Ding-dong the tyrant is having a #fideldirtnap
Yep...and amen! ;)
Satan Welcomes Castro Home
Dateline: The Seven Gates of Hell
An exuberant Satan expressed joy at the return of Fidel Castro to the Seven Gates of Hell. “I have to admit that the party decorations are a bit weathered - we’ve had them up for a while now.” he exclaimed. “Fidel was always a headstrong boy, insisting on doing things his own way. The thing was, he stopped being useful decades ago. At one time I could rely on him to send me innocent souls to torture, but that tapered off to a mere trickle and I had to look elsewhere for my sustenance.”
Well-wishers at the party were quick to lavish praise to the former dictator and mass-murderer.
Barack Obama offered his condolences and said ‘history will record and judge the enormous impact of this singular figure on the people and world around him’. Obama has spoken out on the passing of Cuban revolutionary leader Fidel Castro, saying that history will record and judge the ‘enormous’ impact that Castro had on ‘the people and the world around him.’
The Obama White House released Obama’s statement on Saturday morning in which he noted the relationship between the U.S. and Cuba has been marked by ‘discord and profound political disagreements’ for nearly six decades - that is until the more enlightened Obama came along. “Fidel was always good for a joke, or a toke” he recalled.
Communist Pope Francis was hit particularly hard by the murderer’s passing and said the death of Cuba’s revolutionary leader Fidel Castro was “sad news” and that he was grieving and praying for his repose.
Russian President Vladimir Putin branded Castro ‘the symbol of an era’ and a distinguished statesman’
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said he was ‘one of the most iconic personalities of the 20th century’
French President Francois Hollande branded him a ‘towering figure’, but voiced concerns about human rights abuses in Cuba
Within half an hour of the announcement, the streets of Miami’s Little Havana teemed with Cuban exiles celebrating
Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, a Cuban-American Republican Congress representative from Miami, branded Castro a ‘tyrant’
Satan dismissed those sentiments and said, “Forget them, there’s always someone who insists on peeing in the punchbowl. Party on dudes!”
Soros for the win.
You've got company
The two fascist weren’t around practicing nuclear bomb drills crawling under school desks. Pretty tense time in history that Obama has NEVER
mentioned. Amazing.
But is he merely dead, or really most sincerely dead?
Hate to say it, might go to hell for it, BUT if Soros kicks off before the end of the month, this will be the greatest month ever!!!!
No comment.
Fidel has joined his fellow commie murderer Che in hell.
Party Time!!!
Cuba Libres for everyone!!!
Ask Yugoslavia how that worked out after Tito died.
Isn’t a great to finally have a POTUS who doesn’t mince his words?
As dead as Chevy Chase’s career.
Socialism works. I think Cuba might prove that. Chevy Chase.
He died on Augusto Pinochet’s birthday. How’s that for irony?
Good. Am surprised that the illegal alien Usurper occupying the White House hasn't ordered flags to half-staff!
