GUIDANCE FOR THE LEFT - AT 3:53 P.M. ET:  Fidel Castro is now, apparently, a commentator on American politics and the fortunes of President Obama.  From AP:

HAVANA–Cuba's Fidel Castro is criticizing President Barack Obama's stepped-up U.S. war in Afghanistan while backing Obama's effort to provide health care coverage for all Americans.

The former Cuban president said in an essay published Tuesday that he hasn't the slightest doubt that "the racist right" will do anything to stop Obama from succeeding domestically.

COMMENT:  You know, Castro is starting to sound like some of the more leftish members of the House.  They say exactly the same thing.  Or...is it that the more leftish members of the House who are starting to sound like Castro?

Well, actually, what's the difference?
