"raul castro has responded to criticism of his performance by saying that, if the Cuban people think government is so easy, maybe they should try running the country themselves for a change."

Easy for him to say while they're locking up dissidents and trying to murder children. You have to wonder how one family spawned these two sub-human bugs.

Aww, Ziv, it's a joke, they are trying to be ironic, to show raul as the unwitting jackass that he is! I thought it was a great way to end the satire!

My turn to be a mush brain. I guess I shouldn't blog sin cafecito!

LOL! Remember that if we lose our sense of humor and irony, and if we stop being sarcastic... we'll become liberals!

I know The Onion well from the days my son attended University of Wisconsin, Madison. It was available for free everywhere (many times a thorn in the side of those liberals up there, although nobody is really safe from the onion). I can always count on it for a "carcajada". I split my gut when I read the line about Raul letting the Cuban people govern themselves for a change. Hey, at least I can say that this kind of writing is one of the bright spots of living in this northern cultural desert, eh?
