Adios a Fifo el Embustero Loco
FIDEL STEPS DOWN
Though he's simply turning power over to his brother Raul (also none too young), still, for the first time in 49 years, the Cuban head of state is officially NOT Fidel Castro. Now the question is who will fill Raul's previous seat as Vice President / heir to the throne. Will it be Carlos Lage? (probably.) Or Felipe Perez Roque (who's at least 100% as communist as Fidel himself)? Or somebody else? And can they hold power in Cuba with an iron fist after El Caballo himself is gone?? We'll just have to wait and see...

When is the official Crash Martinez celebration show going to be?
Um... How about whenever we can perform it in Havana? :D
Check this out:
ARLINGTON, VIRGINIA – In light of the resignation of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro yesterday, Dr. Ron Paul, presidential candidate and member of the House Foreign Relations Committee, issued the following statement:
“Fidel Castro was a brutish dictator who for fifty years robbed the Cuban people of their liberty. While his resignation does not mean the end of communism in Cuba, it is good to see him go.
“Castro’s departure provides America a great opportunity to reflect on the current trade embargo against our island neighbor. The policy was designed to weaken the Castro regime, but I believe it actually helped him maintain control and allowed his thugs to hold power decades longer than they would have otherwise been able.
“Free trade and the open exchange of information are the best tools America has to combat international tyranny. The U.S. should quickly end the Cuban trade embargo. Cuban markets would be a great place for our farmers and businesses to sell their products. And, the power of free markets would quickly push out the remaining totalitarian remnant, finally ending the Communism in the Western Hemisphere.”
Dude.
My memory is hazy, but I seem to remember Manic Hispanic singing something to the effect of, "Si los vatos son unidos, que nunca son divididos!"
