Quote of the day: Castro blasts Republican nomination race

We at Scrapbook have been very much enjoying the ongoing Republican circus to choose a challenger to go up against Barack Obama in November. But it seems we haven’t been the only ones. In a series of comments following a debate in Florida on what to do about Cuba, Fidel Castro has hit back with this gem:

“The selection of a Republican candidate for the presidency of this globalised and expansive empire is – and I mean this seriously – the greatest competition of idiocy and ignorance that has ever been.”

Reports of the aging comrade’s ailing faculties seem to have been greatly exaggerated.

    Sadly he may be inadvertantly helping them.

    Sadly, his point is valid.

    I must say that, on this occasion, I fully agree with Castro.
