In a rambling piece submitted to Cuba’s Communist Party rag, Castro reflects on how nice Bill Clinton was to him and surprises no one by declaring Malaise his favorite U.S. President. He also praises Clinton’s thuggish action regarding Elian Gonzalez, who Castro says was “kidnapped.” After waxing nostalgic on America’s communist Democratic past, Castro turns his attention to present times and discusses the upcoming election. Although noting that both Hillary and Obama have said that they want “a democratic government in Cuba”, Castro understands Democrats well enough to realize that such statements are nothing more than election rhetoric. He says a Clinton/Obama ticket would be “seemingly invincible.”

My how far the Democratic party has fallen. Although it was JFK’s gutless betrayal and refusal to provide air support that led to the Bay of Pigs disaster and allowed Castro to continue in power, the popular democrat at least understood that Castro was an enemy of everything America stood for. Members of the modern Democratic party, however, are incapable of feeling shame over the fact that Castro is singing their praises.
