Obi’s Sister

Futility. That’s what Hillary and Cuba have in common.

Hillary lost big yesterday. Captain Ed says

We are just about to the end of the Restoration. If Hillary winds up losing Ohio, she has almost no hope of winning Pennsylvania in April, even if she manages to win Texas. She has to pull a rabbit out of her hat in the next two weeks, starting with the debate tomorrow night, and hope Obama melts down in the meantime. Otherwise, the superdelegate firewall will become her Maginot Line. She will be left with two choices: quit or face the humiliation of seeing her superdelegates abandon her at the first possible moment of the convention.

Mr. and Mrs. Fluff seem to be winning states in spite of his lack of substance and her misplaced pride. Obi points to Obama’s Spend-o-Meter.

If Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) Could Enact All Of His Campaign Proposals, Taxpayers Would Be Faced With Financing $874.35 Billion In New Spending Over One White House Term

But al-Qaeda is rooting for McCain. Seems they would rather keep fighting/killing/maiming instead of promoting the election of the one man who would bend over backwards to give them what they want.

Hillary is rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Cuba is doing the same.

With Castro’s announced “abdication”, the media looks like a sick Cirque du Soliel in their rush to fawn over the still dead dictator. Dictator… dictator

That reminds me of a story (a real story). It has nothing to do with this sad situation. Years ago, a young minister and his wife were invited to a parishioner’s home for supper. After the meal, which was lovely and homey, they began to play Pictionary. Things were going along swimmingly, until the young pastor drew the word “dictator.” He proceeded to draw a penis and a potato, side by side. In the hushed silence that followed, the young wife excused the two of them with the plea that the babysitter needed to be rescued.

Come to think of it, it does relate to Cuba. Castro’s head has always looked like a big Idaho to me. But I digress…

CNN is even instructing its analysts to take it easy on ol’ Uncle Fidel. Fausta sums Castro’s life up pretty well:

…half a century of ruining a people morally, financially and spiritually.

More here. While the list of atrocities is long, first on the agenda should be the release of political prisoners. With little brother in charge, nothing will change.

Rearrange those chairs, Raul!
