fidel castro said it, ergo, it must be gospel!
Enrique from the Down with castro blog has dug up a gem of a video.
Click here to see Ed Sullivan interviewing fidel castro.
You'll not only witness the naivetee of one Ed Sullivan or the absolute falsehood of castro's response, but you will hear one fidel castro speaking the evil imperialist English language. That's the same language he refuses to speak publicly, or with dignitaries or politicians or businessmen or even fawning worshippers such as Oliver Stone, Danny Glover, Harry Belafonte, et al.
I believe it was during that same trip to NY, when he met Nixon, that Mr. Nixon took an instant dislike to the chicken pluckin' sonofabich - so not everyone was impressed or swooned over feedeleeto even then. Too bad Mr. Nixon didn't work more on his TV persona so he too could have impressed viewers enough to make a difference in the '60 election. We might then have been treated to a video of Mr. Sullivan interviewing a fallen feedeleeto behind bars.
Poor fidelito ... he don't get no respect.
Not that he deserves any, but ... poor fidelito ... and his really crappy shew!
Nixon was discounted by the MSM from the very start. Because media darling Alger Hiss - proven Soviet spy - was outed by Nixon, Nixon had to be demonized by the press. And he was! As was Whittaker Chambers.
The Leftist fellow travelers still defend Hiss and his spy buddies, while they continue to villify Nixon and the rest of the Cold Warriors.
Thank GOD, that the Cold Warriors won, and not the Commies!
May a thousand, thousand Gulls leave their droppings on fidelito next time he speechifies!
Really interesting film clip. I never knew about this interview. Thanks.
Que hijo de la gran puta! Thanks for the post!!
