Castro Reliquishes Power in Cuba

Breaking news in Miami

Fidel is hospitalized for intestinal bleeding and hands over his power to his Brother. Sources cannot say whether it is permanent power change. Raul Castro is worse than Fidel. According to the Cuban Exile leadership here in Miami.

Interesting!

(that guy lives longer than Popes!)

Would that be the very same exile community that worked so hard back in 2000 to keep a very young boy from his father, subsequent to the death of his mother? Pretty influential group of citizens, considering that the entire Cuban exile community, their children, and now, their grandchildren, represent oh… maybe 1/5th of 1% of the U.S. population!

(Numbers not verified, based simply on a gross calculation of approximately 275,000,000 U.S. citizens, and an estimated exile community of @ 500,000.)

Now…don’t get me wrong. I’m not a big fan of El Jefe, “maximum leader” (or whatever he calls himself these days), but did you really expect the Florida Cubans to have anything nice to say about El Jefe’s little brother???
