No gulag exists quite like the one where Fidel will go to join his comrades. In the blink of an eye, his entire lifetime will be revealed as a fool’s errand. Surely he’ll run into Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, Saddam, Saddam’s idiot sons, and a host of vile characters throughout history. Castro too will cry out for mercy, but no ear shall hear him outside the place of anguish. Perhaps, like the rich man from Luke 16, Fidel will pray for his family, pray they be warned of the realm of the damned.
p>Suicide bombers thinking at first the flames were from the twin towers. Instant fear and loathing as another suicide victim tried desperately to recall the bullet that delivered him into perdition. Weep not for them, the snide, the smug, or for the a-theist like Fidel. And weep not for the Hollywood fools who worship his image. There’ll be enough weeping and gnashing of teeth among themselves when they join their hero in eternity. br> — Robert McClain br> Baton Rouge, Louisiana /p> p> JUST SAY SIT br> Re: Michael Fumento’s Obesity Goes to the Dogs
