So what is his illness? Why does not the open society of Cuba, the shinning example of freedom and democracy tell us what is the problem with their beloved leader? (extreme sarcasm).

Well Raul, he's not looking very good these days. In fact, in this picture, he looks like a skeleton in pajamas. Seems to me he's wasting away to nothing, which is what he always was anyway...nothing.

Back in the days of Stalin in Russia, people who brought uncle Joe bad news were sometimes dispatched with a single pistol shot to the head from Joe's ever-present side arm. People learned not to be the bearers of bad tidings. Maybe Tio Castro's doc is unwilling to give the true diagnosis of terminal illness due to the potential of suffering a similar fate. Best to lie. "Take two aspirin and you'll feel better mañana.

I guess the real question here is, will the rich college brats replace their Che' T-shirts with Fidel T-shirts?
