True - botched ropes, botched dopes - is there no end to the horror!

[Cementjungle]

Is Fidel still dead yet?

Yes, repeatedly.

[plangent]

He's in Havana!

Outside of Cuba he could be given the Pinochet treatment which is slow torture until death comes naturally.

[bill1952]

Yeah, but those Miami - Cuban girls are hot! To Hell with Castro.

Sorry, I couldn't resist. 8^)

[elhombrelibre]

Let's hope so. Let's hope he passes over to the Lord any day.

[teenyelliott]

Why would anyone believe any of this? Who the heck knows what is up with Castro? Certainly not the docs in this article;

the doctors -- who have no first-hand knowledge of Castro's condition

I find it interesting that if this amount of speculation and conjecture were published as a story regarding something conservatives cared about, we would be screaming about the stupid media.

But if they weave an entire story about Castro out of maybe coulda shoulda, well then woohoo. Weird.

Considering his brother will be the new dictator, I suspect it won't be a 5 star affair...

Now this is a man who deserves all the pain he can experience.

They should start mass-producing that "operation" game again. You know, the one with the little holes in the person on the operating table containing the plastic organs, and if your tweezers touch the edges you get a loud buzzing sound? Only, the person looks like Castro, and all the internal organs are in the wrong place (since it's made in Cuba). The game would be free, though.

The Cubans had the latest training in operations.

"It's not a good story. Too bad they didn't send him to Miami for surgery," said Dr. Charles Gerson, a clinical professor of medicine in the gastroenterology division of New York's Mt. Sinai School of Medicine.

Typical New York liberal, save the nice murderous tyrant. I guess after Cas-hole dies, the left will be complaining about that as well along with the Saddam execution which they are still doing. "Waaah! He didn`t do everything they could to save him! It has to be the fault of the US! Waaah!"

"I want my own doctor, fly him in from Miami ... don't trust a doctor who can't speak English"

[lesser_satan]

I know, I might have to fly down there when the miserable old bucket of pollution finally assumes room temperature. Can you imagine the party?

[Screamname]

LMAO!!!! "Bzzzzzzzz!"

[bill1952]

But, then again... it might be a pretty wild night in Miami, come to think of it. I stand corrected.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Add Jimmah Cahtah to the list.

Years ago I saw one of those documentary's that, in this case, filmed a witch doctor type .. claiming to be a Christian, that excised a 'tumor' from the belly of a man.

The camera was on his hands all the time and he kneaded the belly ... soon blood started to show and ... a bloody mass was in the 'doctor's' hand ... he said it was a cancerous tumor.

The documentary explained that it was clever sleight of hand and the mass was a chicken liver.

I guess that was the 'doctor' Castro had.
