THE MARLINS AND THEIR TAKE ON FOREIGN POLICY, PART ONE. With Santorum quitting someone else needs to play God,and CBS reports the Marlins's little showdown of their own. Ozzie Guillen was reported as saying that he loved Castro and was glad he had stayed in power for so long. Result? He was suspended for five games, the Cuban community is in an uproar and there's clamor from two "officials" that he should be fired. Mr. Guillen has since retracted his statement, claiming ironic immunity. CBS has him say that he meant to express amazement at how Castro had not died sooner and was upset that he discombolulated people who hated Cuban politics for whatever reason so much so they jumped on rafts to float on over to Miami. CBS also edited a "no I didn't" out of context as the answer to a question posed on the air by a newscaster as to whether Guillen meant what he said or not. Let alone that it's illegal to fire anyone for political beliefs that aren't at odds with the basic tenets of the constitution of the United States,or for reading,or for voting, the Marlins must have seen the chance to apply for a position as Romney's influent cabinet members since, after the candidate's on again-off again play on self-deportation not even his ID card can identify him. Their plan is to influence foreign policy as baseball players since the sport is spread throughout the world and they know nothing of presidential politics not at odds with countries like Cuba. After all, even Russia has its political party run by a sports team owner, and I should brush up as well, since I thought the Marlins were a football team, not a baseball team. Castro just doesn't have the build of an effective supporter, so he's out. I mean, even the Pope picks on him in his own country, while visiting a shrine to the virgin of good luck.
