Castro, Icon
Fidel Castro's resignation makes him much in the news right now, but it is NPR’s Andrei Codrescu whose comments I have found most compelling. (3:51 audio)
The CIA couldn’t kill him, so I doubt if death will. He’ll go on, becoming more and more iconic until no one will remember what a real tragedy he was, and will continue to be, for the Cuban people.

Cool! Andrei Codrescu and I made basically the same prediction.

Now would be a great time to start making a killing by convincing the college kidz to hang up their Che t-shirts and buy a Fidel t-shirt.
