Que Viva La Revolución!
Fidel Castro, who has left his coffin for the 10th time to make an insipid statement, sniffed Obama’s cigarettes and his new power grasp on this country. He has finally found a US President that he “likes”, since he congratulated Barack Obama on passing out his health care reform.
According to Yahoo! Finance, this is Castro’s statement about our Dear Leader and what Obama will accomplish with his health care bill:
Cuban revolutionary leader Fidel Castro on Thursday declared passage of American health care reform “a miracle” and a major victory for Obama’s presidency, but couldn’t help chide the United States for taking so long to enact what communist Cuba achieved decades ago.
“We consider health reform to have been an important battle and a success of his (Obama’s) government,” Castro wrote in an essay published in state media, adding that it would strengthen the president’s hand against lobbyists and “mercenaries.”
And he said it was remarkable that the most powerful country on earth took more than two centuries from its founding to approve something as basic as health benefits for all.
“It is really incredible that 234 years after the Declaration of Independence … the government of that country has approved medical attention for the majority of its citizens, something that Cuba was able to do half a century ago,” Castro wrote.
And then, of course, his usual “switch-a-roo”:
But the Cuban leader also used the lengthy piece to criticize the American president for his lack of leadership on climate change and immigration reform, and for his decision to send more troops to Afghanistan, among many other things.
Keep it up!…awaiting statement from Hugo Chávez.
