Daily "Weekend at Fidel's"
Here's some more wackiness from the Kooky Kommie Isle. While I don't see any obvious signs of photoshopping, the pictures by themselves are worth their weight in gold!
More kooky fun can be found following the break, and more Cuban speculation can be found over at La Contra Revolucíon.
A tender moment, which would've been so appropriately MOAB'ed.

Notice that there are plenty of duplicates here, due to the fact that each wire service picked up a photograph handed out by one of the Cuban government's propaganda arms, and then post-corrected it individually.

I liked this photo, because after so many surgeries on his lower gastrointestinal tract, Fidel is guaranteed to have a colostomy bag under that Adidas tracksuit. I'm sure Vietnam's head honcho could smell the love.
