[HouWarrior]

 A More famous Cuban than even Babbaloo Ricky Ricardo (lol), .....Fidel Castro has passed..... Seems like this has been quite a year for famous people passing from our mortal coil:

BTW, I add my mom to this list (she died just four weeks before Muhammad Ali...in the same Scotsdale AZ hospital....same floor )

I love how different the reactions to Fidel's death are compared to the King of Saudi Arabia.

Laughable.

Maybe better stated as the birth of Russian Oligarchy in America.

Sadly, Ron Glass is on the list. RIP, Shepherd Book

+1000


The same can be said of people claiming Trump is a fascist and a dictator, while these same people praise Fidel as some wonderful liberal leader.

Laughable.  Obama order flags at half staff yet?

Bananas is any idiot believing this concept.  Now the media will decide for us what is and isn't news? 

Priceless.


Almost as priceless as someone thinking democracy was stolen.  We are a Republic, not a democracy.  Priceless to hear the whining about electoral colleges and pretending this isn't how presidents are elected for 200+ years.  To prevent mob rule and tyranny of the majority.

What's up Doc?

[FreeRepublic]

What a difference.

BS vs calling it like it is

Hi, Jamie. 

[jesmu84]

I'll take the blame on this one, guys.

Didn't expect Chicos to make a return in this topic though.

Anyone who thinks El Jefe was an enlightened leader needs to review their notes. The guy was a brutal thug. He did bone Barbara Walters though which, come to think of it, is a rather disturbing image.

Hi, Jamie.

How sick is this guy?

Glad I was one of the few who said he was playing us. Some actually believed he was sincere.

On the other hand, the guy is sick. For real. Needs his meds.

IDDT = I Don't Do Teal.

Oh ... and hi, chicos.

[HouWarrior]

I have just now deleted the "Free Chicos" reference in my profile signature.

My patience is exhausted, ......sorry.

Personally I found Florence Henderson's love of Wesson Oil far more politically controversial.
lol

Few?  I only counted two in our boat.

Though in fairness, the play itself is a play.  Nothing says "page clicks" like a dumpster fire, even if the flames ain't real.
