Miami is planning a huge bash when Castro finally assumes room temperature!
MIAMI — With Fidel Castro seriously ill, the city of Miami is making plans to throw a party at the Orange Bowl when the Cuban president dies.
City Commissioner Tomas Regalado, a Cuban American, came up with the idea of using the venue for an event timed to Castro's demise. The Orange Bowl was the site of a speech by President Kennedy in 1961 promising a free Cuba and in the 1980s it served as a camp for refugees from the Mariel boatlift.
Castro "represents everything bad that has happened to the people of Cuba for 48 years," Regalado said. "There is something to celebrate, regardless of what happens next. ... We get rid of the guy."
Reportedly Thug-O Chavez wasn't invited.
Too bad we didn't give Saddam Hussein a similar party!

Viva Fidel!! We like him here in Canada but I understand the American sentiment and the Cuban American bitterness.
