As always, you can count on Jeff Jacoby of the Boston Globe to set the record straight. (As far to the left as the Globe is, I still can't believe they haven't fired him yet.) This article about the number of dead as a result of the Castro regime, is no exception.
It amazes me just how many elitists still glamorize this guy and give him credibility, as a leader.
Take a look at the modern day "Eden" that exists today in Cuba. You leftists that wear Che shirts and regard him (and Fidel) as some kind of folk hero will want to peruse this link, very well. See the Cuba that Fidel has fooled the Ted Turner types into believing exists. Then, look at the real Cuba. See the poverty, the deterioration, and the despair. Gaze at the horrid conditions that exist today.
Baghdad looks better than Havana.
After you do that, be real sure to come back and tell me how Castro was misunderstood by the Americans and how well socialism works for the people.
Hat Tip to Les at Living In The Surreal World for posting this Cuba link, way back in May.

Castro in getting older, but his family has a history of longevity, living into their 90's.
And in Venezuela is Hugo Chavez, foaming at the mouth to step up to the plate.
You know, it amazes me that Castro hasn't been killed. He must have supremely loyal bodyguards.
Castro's supporters claim that he has charisma. I don't see it.
