[Marxism] Fidel Castro: "I personally do not doubt the honesty of Obama"

Fidel Castro dies????.... you mean he's human and just god-like, not an 
actual god?

Well we better start preparing.   First, we need Fidel to give his holy 
ring, his sceptre, and the revolutionary sealing wax to his brother so that 
the line can be unbroken, more or less.

Then we need Walter to spend deep time with Madame Cleo, the now-bankrupt 
telephone psychic [she never saw it coming], so that he can, as needed, 
contact Fidel in that great hereafter, and relay El Jefe's latest 
prescriptives to us...after Walter is done sitting shiva, of course.

Then, we need to line up the pope, or his emissary to say a few words at the 
funeral...maybe even nominate him for beatification.

And then, and then, and then......

You know what Lee Atwalter?  You make it hard for people to actually respect 
Fidel, to engage his historical significance, warts and all.  Having had the 
good fortune to actually meet Fidel, to talk a bit with him, to even tease 
him, I think that if Fidel ever read the drivel you pump out, he would be 
the first to say... "I am not a Fidelista."

I'm just a little bit fed up  with Walter's smearing of people as 
"Obamaphobes," and his use of color as a weapon-- the "first black 
President"  as if any of the criticism coming from Marxists has anything to 
do with color-- as if the black chief executive of the bourgeoisie's bodies 
of armed men is not... well, isn't the chief executive of the bourgeoisie's 
body of armed men.
