Is he dead yet?
The Fidel Castro watch continues.
“Cuba's vice president said Sunday Fidel Castro would return to work in a few weeks after intestinal surgery that forced him to hand over power temporarily to his younger brother.” Cuba: Castro to Return in a Few Weeks
Why do they even have a Vice President if he isn’t going to replace the President at a time like this?
The Washington Post has background information on the story:
“Cuban President Fidel Castro, a nemesis of the U. S. government for more than four decades, temporarily relinquished power July 31, saying he had undergone intestinal surgery.”
Well, beginning with the thousands of Cuban refugees, I think you could expand the populace of just who considered him a ”nemesis”, perhaps even replacing that with a stronger word. Of course, any such expansion would not include the clueless but supposedly educated citizenry populating the greater Madison, WI area.
