No-Show Castro

".. In the past few weeks he (Castro) has been operated on more than once to stop what appeared likely to progress to fatal septicemia. These same sources say the leader has lost much weight, that he does not want to walk or receive visitors.".."

Also of interest: On his recent tour of Latin America, Hugo Chavez--after insulting The U.S. as "Count Dracula!" and "a "genocidal killer!"--mentioned that Fidel Castro had advised against such insults.

That raises an interesting point. Chavez is chomping at the bit to take over as the lefties' standard-bearer.
