HAVANA - Hundreds of thousands of cheering workers marched through Cuba’s Revolution Plaza on Tuesday but Fidel Castro was nowhere to be seen.
The 80-year-old communist leader was not watching from his usual perch atop a viewing platform and has not been seen in public since emergency intestinal surgery forced him to step down temporarily nine months ago.

The corpse is too decomposed?
Well well well... Fidel didn’t make it. They’ve been going on about he’s nearly fully recovered, but I guess they’re more concerned about his appearance/health than they let on.

Castro doesn’t have the guts to show up.
Interesting development considering that a few days ago, President Bush predicted a major change in Cuba very soon.
Mr. Castro will be celebrating May Day this year with Chairman Mao and Sercretary Stalin.
Exactly
I couldn’t get the link to Cuban TV live this morning to see the parade. Maybe the lefties have it all jammed this morning.
Maybe they’ll embalm Fidel and bring him out.

The corpse still looks great in that track suit.
May he suffer a miserable death. I look at the left’s love of him and I cringe. We need nothing more than to see their love of him and know they are evil’s manifestation of earth.
