Bush To Copy Castros Turnover of Power

Word is spreading through the Capitol and White House Tuesday afternoon that George W. Bush has been intensely interested in yesterday's news that president Fidel Castro of Cuba has turned over power of government to Raul Castro, his brother.

Apparently, Bush has been focusing on the method used in the Cuban transfer of power and stated 'Hell, I don't see why I can't do it. Fidel's a president. I'm a president. Fidel wrote a letter to 'temporarily' hand over power to his brother Raul. And I can write a letter to transfer power to Jeb. Same-o, same-o.'

Bush is said to want to commit to the use of the 'Fidel' model AFTER the November elections, especially if the Republicans lose the House and the Senate. Bush commented that 'That Cubano viejo was pretty slick and if it's good enough for the New York Times, it should be good enough for me.'

Good point. The elections in Cuba are even more 'perfect' than in America. It's like 99% re-elect Castro all the time, and that goes against that political truism of, 'You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.'

Yes, Bush can accomplish quite a bit by following Castro's model.

THE PROBLEM: THE BANANA REPUBLIC

'Older Cubans, like those who gather daily at Little Havana's emblematic Maximo Gomez Park, tend to remain loyal to the Republican Party for its hard line on Cuban President Fidel Castro's Communist government.' [But I'd put the blame on the wholesale manipulation of elderly Cuban-American voters by well-financed radio campaigns centered around the word 'communism'.] (http://sify.com/news/fullstory.php?id=13589104)

Note: I define 'communist' as a AUTHORITARIAN, MONOPOLISTIC LION

They have.
