I imagine Obama will ask all Americans to fly their flags at half-mast for the former Venezuelan dictator as he asked for Whitney Houston (but failed to ask for for U.S. sniper hero Kyle).

Well that's the least we could do for him giving us a pain in the a$$.
Oh, and cheaper Citgo gas and cold coffee.

I'm sure Obama will go to the funeral...one of his heros. Too bad Castro doesn't kick the bucket the same week and save taxpayers some jet fuel on Air Force 1...knock two out on the same trip and use the savings to start back up White House tours?

Hey, I know, just ship him up here, have the funeral in DC and bury him in Arlington. Sean Penn could officiate.
Saves everybody time and effort.

Because technocrats do so well. You don't need subject matter experts with grand visions, you need someone with some humility who actually respects freedom and prosperity as ends unto themselves.
