WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Fidel Castro appeared healthy and asked how Cuba's leadership could best help U.S. President Obama move to normalize relations between the two countries, two U.S. lawmakers said on Tuesday after meeting the 82-year-old former Cuban president in Havana.

"Of course, he has been ill. But I think we will agree that he was very healthy, very energetic, very clear thinking," Representative Barbara Lee, one of three Democrats to meet Castro, told a Washington news conference.

Representative Laura Richardson said Castro appeared eager to see relations change between the two countries.

"He was very well aware of what was going on," Richardson "As he leaned in, he looked directly into our eyes, quite aware of what was happening, and said to us 'how can we help President Obama?'"

They got trout and reds in Cuba?

P.S. Castro just wants some bailout billions.

That just don't sound right.

I hear bass fishing is really good there, but locals don't believe in catch and release. Jumptrout, I'll buy the papers if you roll'em.

He's gotta retire first.

I remember many years ago fishing reports in ATL Journal-Constipation of Tech coach Bobby Dodd in Cuba. A few years later there were some anglers allowed to return to those lakes bass fishing but generally reported management had been non-existent and the huge bass were no longer there. Sad.

It doesn't surprise me that Castro wants to see and help Obama succeed. Just one socialist helping another. But thats just my opionion.

Did you folks see the interview of the congressional group that went down there. All were black, but most striking was that all seemed semi-illiterate. Folks, the election of Obama has let the loons out of the looney bin.

The Liberalas Moronis, commonly known as loons, have been migrating to Washington for quite some time. There are three distinct subspecies (white, black and brown) that can all be differentiated by their calls. However, for the privileged observer all three species can be observed congregating together in the Congressional Loon Management Area(CLMA). They prefer to do as little work as possible and will wait for the competing species Conservatus Moronis to gather food before swooping in and stealing it boldly from their beak. For the adamant watcher they can be called easily for observation. Simply walk through the Capital or FSU campus in Tally and call out O-Ba-Ma...O-Ba-Ma. Before too long you will have a cheery crowd of loons drawn to you. To stimulate their feeding behavior, simply hold out and open your wallet...many are quite used to being fed in this manner and will gladly dip in their beak. Enjoy!!!!

Here is an excellent example of the mating call of the Gargantuan Looniest ... it is a very distinct call and it is always predicated by a reference to a species that no longer resides in Washington. Gargantuan Looniest suffers from the euphoria created by the mere mention of the word change. Medical supplies are being disbursed through out the nation to help treat the cases of depression that will accompany the education of Gargantuan Looniest to the fact that King Loon, Obama, was One Big Azz Mistake America. If you spot a Gargantuan Looniest, move away quickly. Do not attempt to talk sense into them. This cloud cause untreated depression and result the Gargantuan Looniest committing suicide. Refer their name to the nearest mental health professionals.
