Cuban television is showing images of Fidel Castro chatting in a garden with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, the first images of the ailing revolutionary broadcast in six months.

The 81-year-old Castro looks thinner, and his hair and beard are much whiter in the video images, which did not include any audio. But he nevertheless looks vigorous and animated as he talks with his younger brother, President Raul Castro, and Chavez.

He is dressed in a white running jacket with red and blue trim in the images broadcast Tuesday.

Cuban T.V. is showing images of Fidel Castro talking in a garden with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, the first images of the ailing communist dictator broadcast in six months.

The 81-year-old Castro looks thinner, sicker, and his hair and beard are much whiter in the video images, which did not include any audio. But he nevertheless looks vigorous and animated as he talks with his younger brother, SortaPresident Raul Castro, and fascist Chavez.

He is dressed in a white Members Only jacket from the early 70’s with red and blue trim in the images broadcast Tuesday.

See post 4. I had to redo it in case the whiney ass Al A.P. issues a complaint.

Obama Hussein better hurry if he wants an audience with Fidel. Time’s running out.

I don’t think Castro is dead. I think he is senile.

We’ve seen plenty of pictures, but he hasn’t delivered any speeches or tv talks. This man loves being the center of attention. If he was capable, he’d be front and center.

He’s looked “out of it” in every picture I’ve seen. And people with Alheimer’s can get plenty “animated”.
