Is Castro Dead???

8/17/2007 7:58 PM ET | Filed under: Exclusives! • Politik • Conspiracy Corner

We are hearing very loud rumblings that Cuban dictator Fidel Castro has died, though it could be just a flare-up of the health rumors that have dogged the tyrant recently.

No official confirmation yet, but we will be following this story closely.

Ah yes, Cuba is so AMAZING that you can't even leave the country. What a bunch of bullshit. I'd rather have freedom than free healthcare.

Hey Doctor BushNalgas #421 etc, what justice & humanity has Fidel brought to his people-you must be some stupid armchair Commie - reading other stupid Commie fuck books or a happy shit for brains tourist that doesn't know what the hell is really going on in the daily life of Cubans who live on the Island! Whoever says the Cuban people have plenty of food has got to be a shit for brains tourist.

jeessuz! you are cuban? what a godamn embarrasement to the rest of us!

well Fidel lived a long life [if he's indeed dead] he did everything he wanted to do, he thumbed his node at the Leviathan from the north the sonabitch Uncle Sally.

the revolution kicked the goddammned gringos out of our country, no longer making snuff moives with our little girls.

no longer insulting us with their drunkeness and foul odor and little anglo-saxon minds, no longer co-opting us with their dirty dollars.

you stupid gringos have to live with georgie bush puppett controlled by big nazi old pop bush.

gringos no longer can use us to kill their catholic irish presidents to do their dirty tricks__Fidel is a son of a bitch, but he is OUR son of a bitch.

He thought he knew about everything, which he obviously didt not, his hubris and lack orfresoect for democratic institution is not any different than the Repugnants that rule Gringoland.

the "american" people are the dumbest most co-opted and corrupted population on the planet. they worship death, ignorance and stupidity.

the land of mass murderes, what a piece of shit is the US.

go watch your "american" idols and play your japanese Nintendos while Washington burns you morons!

we are free, thanx to Fidel, may he rest in peace the little bastard. (well he was one)

y tu maricon vete a mamar la pinga de un burro, pendejo, tu madre (la mona)

#423 - Dr. Kushal Banerjee-What language do you speak? My gosh your shit didn't make any sense. If you don't know how to write please don't post.

As for #432 what is up with the wanting to be Cuban thing? Please you are another confused Mexican Zapatista. Cubans and Latin Americans do not use such stupid phrases to insult others. Oh and by they way I don't even think that Cubans know what American Idol is. You just made yourself sound really supid. I'm sure that you are in your small E. L.A apt. filled with 20 brothers and sisters pissed off that Cubans are legal in this country and you are not. So go complain somwhere else. You dumb shit.

You'll have to reveal how you scooped this story, if its true. Some other media groups are starting to run with it, and Chavez recently had to deny the rumor - though it is odd that he has done so instead of the Cuban government. If its true, perhaps we can finally see the end to one of our worst policies… the Cuban embargo…

Since Castro fell ill, it is normally up to Chavez to keep the Cubans and the rest of the world "informed" on what's going on with Fidel! How ridiculous is that?

If only this Communist Leader with the terrible human rights records could supply Walmart like the Chinese Commuinst leader with the terrible human rights record.

Its hilarious how selective Americans are about which communist is bad and which is better.

I hope when he's gone the Americans will stay away from Cuba.
Its so pleasant vacationing there without the bloody loud 'mericans around.

Look Mike#439, we don’t want you limey fuckers in cuba either, you and the fucking canadians think youre better than the gringos, ha! Munions! You goddammned or bloody as you assholes say, are the root of all fucking evil on earth. You motherfucker are the ones who partitioned Mesopotamia and India and Africa, you bastards invented Israel and gave the world all kind of fucking problems, you are gutless idiots who even deny your tribal beginnings, who had to borrow a language (Latin) cause you didn’t have your own, you queers are ruled surreptitiously by a woman who is an inbred moron, go fuck yourself you piece of shit!
Mike #439 says – reply to this

418

Hey Bo Pena….I never said I was limey or Canadian
And I never said I was better than the gringos.

All I said is Americans, ok, sorry, the US Govt and their supporters, are perfectly OK with the human rights record in China because thats where Walmart buys most of their crap from.

But then, what can the US say, with all the rent cheques being mailed to China (China owns 46% of the US Debt - look it up !)

Is Castro a bad man? I'm sure he is.
So was Saddam and look how much better things are now that he's gone (sic!)

What all this has to do with ancient history, lord only knows.

I just noticed that if I removed all the cussing and the insults from your post, it would be about 7 words. Too bad, in those 7 words, you couldn't counter my position with regards to America turning a blind eye to one despot and not the other. I mean, who do you think the bigger threat to US is? Cuba or China.

I enjoy visiting Cuba, I've been twice and found the people to be very warm and hospitable and I'm not talking about the maids and bartenders.

I don't know what part of Cuba you claim to be from, but I'm certain you do not speak for more than 1% of Cubans.

Do not despise visitors to your land. No country can live without its tourists.
One can only imagine how desperate things would be in Cuba would it not be for its Tourism trade.

Ding Dong the wicked witch is dead. He hasn't appeared on anything live since he went surgery. As with any communist/conspiracy regime, they do not want the people to riseup and plan a contrarevolution so they are continuing the story that he is alive and well. Although most Cuban exiles believe he is dead. That's my story and I'm sticking by it.

That's fucked up (if it's true). Castro was one of history's great heroic souljahs, but I'm sure Cuba will move forward without him. And maybe the US will stop hating on Cuba so much if he's gone.

Miley Cyrus Insists Alcohol Is 'Way More Dangerous' Than Weed! Shares Her New Priorities As An Adult & Artist!

Perhaps Amanda Bynes would have been better off giving Miley Cyrus her bong!

The We Can’t Stop singer interviewed with Rolling Stone magazine for their July 4th issue, and revealed her fairly liberal thoughts on drugs and alcohol.

Given her stoner reputation, we’re not totally surprised. Though, when asked to clarify her penchant for weed, she said:

"You can't ask someone that and expect them to say yes... I did a song with Snoop Dogg called 'Ashtrays and Heartbreaks,' so people can put it together for themselves."

That sounds fairly straightforward to us. Mileybird then went ahead to state that she thinks there are things much, much worse than a little bit of the green stuff:

"I think alcohol is way more dangerous than marijuana -- people can be mad at me for saying that, but I don't care... I've seen a lot of people spiral down with alcohol, but I've never seen that happen with weed."

She added:

"As long as it isn't illegal, there are far more dangerous things. And it's legal in the state of California. So I'm happy to live in California, a place where you can be whoever you want to be."

Well, Miley, marijuana isn’t exactly legal in California unless you have a prescription, so we’re not entirely sure what you mean. But, okay...

As for her transition from Disney teen idol to mature pop star, she said:
