New photo of Cuba's Fidel Castro



Cuban leader Fidel Castro and the president
of the Dominican Republic, Leonel Fernandez


A new photo of Cuban leader Fidel Castro was published Wednesday by the Listin Diario newspaper in the Dominican Republic.

The photo shows Castro and Dominican President Leonel Fernandez during their meeting in Havana two days ago.

Posted to formally add Dominican President Leonel Fernandez' name to the list of Presidents and religious leaders who have visited the guy, described their visits with him, and in some cases, have taken photos with him. Why should it be an issue? There are a few mentally impaired people who've been loudly maintaining the Cuban former President is actually dead and these people are covering it up.

What a difference between him and what we got stuck with for 8 years.

3. Yeah, we only had to endure 8 years
Cubans have had to endure more than 50 years.

4. Where's the video of him walking through Havana
the other day? Or at least some audio?

He needs a slogan to go with that Adida's gear. "Fidel says, Just Castro It!"

13. The track suits make me think he's pretty ill; that's comfort clothing, easy-on and easy-off....
That's why they're favored by so many old people: pull-on pants with elastic waistbands accommodate both arthritic hands and post-surgical appliances, and the jackets have a single zipper up the front instead of a row of buttons.

Just a thought.

15. Yeah. Like Boris Berezovsky and Neil Bush.

Here they're in business suits, but smiles are what they wear in bed.



Know your BFEE: Neil Bush hangs out with Russian Mafiya Godfather

19. I have no idea about Russian gangsters, but after decades of Revolutionary military garb...
... Fidel Castro is suddenly visibly old and sick, and his wardrobe has become radically different as well.

16. The CIA's been saying Castro is dying for twenty years.



Maybe one of these days they'll be able to say "I told you so". :rofl:
