The Left's Lionization of Fidel Castro Is Sick

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: And we've got still to discuss Castro. Look, this is a teachable moment, a big-time teachable moment, the death of Fidel Castro and the way that death was treated by many, if not most, of the American media and the Democrat Party with a couple of noted exceptions, one of the exceptions being Pelosi.

But the most accurate take, the most accurate reaction, the most dead-on public statement about the death of Fidel Castro came from Trump. Obama's was neutral. You know, Obama, Castro, that's the kind of thing Obama, all these leftists, these Social Justice Warriors, they admire what they think Castro was trying to do. He had free health care for everyone. Never mind that nobody could access it. It's just absurd. I can't wait to share with you a story in the Washington Post about this. It's sick. It is dangerous how wrong, how factually incorrect, how attitudinally, how ideologically wrong this is. It's dangerous. It'd be one thing if it was from a kook, obscure conspiracy website, but this is in the Washington Post.

Did you hear what Brian Williams said? He said people in Cuba prefer donkey-drawn carts to automobiles. The people of Cuba prefer to be driven around by donkeys in carts rather than the 1950s and '60s automobiles, which are the newest that you can find in Cuba. They prefer it.

JFK would NOT be a liberal in today’s world.

I can remember watching Rush’s TV show back in the mid 1990s, and he compared and contrasted TIME magazine’s covers “The Lion in Winter” (that featured Castro) and “Is Rush Limbaugh Good for America?”.

Under Castro, the LUCKY one’s were SHOT.
One of Uncle Fidel’s favorite methods of dispatching those he most hated was absolutely diabolical.
The bastard had a nearly air-tight glass booth constructed to hold a single individual.
The floor of the thing was perforated with hundreds of holes. Under the floor was a powerful blower. The floor would be covered with powered glass dust and slightly larger bits.
Do I need to explain the next part? Uncle Fidel and his invited guests, complimentary Cuban cigars in hand, watched as the blower was switched on amid the short-lived screams of the victim-du-jour.
THIS is the MONSTER now being lionized by obozo, the leftist morons of the MSM and outright COMMUNIST fellow travelers here in America.
FAIR WARNING: If the left (aka “DEMOCRATS”) ever achieves full control, even worse will come HERE!

Wow, Pelosi's statement is actually reasonable:

http://www.democraticleader.gov/newsroom/pelosi-statement-on-death-of-fidel-castro/

But, she gets one thing wrong: it's not the "end of an era". Raul Castro is still in charge, and the jury is still out on whether he will make changes for the better, or continue his brother's "legacy".

See this New York Times review of Armando Valladares' Against All Hope: A Memoir of Life in Castro's Gulag. Nothing quite so romantic as being kept in a Drawer Cell in a puddle of your own excrement. Viva la Revolucion!

I sure wish we could ship the Marxist/socialist sympathizers in this nation over to Venezuela. What a bunch of stupid pigs.
