— Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara
This is going to go viral quite quickly so might as well jump on the train. Check out this news report from a Fox channel in Houston. They film a bit in a brand spanking new Obama campaign office in Houston and what do you see on the wall? A flag with a picture of the murderer Che Guevara:
But hey, the man was only responsible [singlepic=170,320,240,,right] for the execution of thousands of political prisoners, imprisoned because they opposed Fidel. He was key in setting up the Castro forced labor camps and secret police and in his spare time took in the sport of torture those same political prisoners, some of them children.
As Fontova points out, during the 1960s alone, the regime Che helped set up executed over 100,000 people, and incarcerated some 350,000 political prisoners out of a Cuban population that numbered only 6.3 million in 1960 (for more detailed figures, see the chapter on Cuba in the thorough Black Book of Communism
). Undoubtedly, there would have been even more executions and political prisoners if not for the fact that so many Cubans were able to flee to the nearby United States.
As Don Surber points out tho, it makes sense:
Well, why not. Obama is a lot like Che. His parents were elitists and maybe leftist. Sure, why not?
A very dangerous man who is getting quite close to becoming our President. Meanwhile you have the loyal party booster Juan Cole calling Ed Morrissey a party flack while making the argument that a flag of a murderer on the walls of a Democrat nominee for President is a-ok because, well, our policy on Cuba sucks.
Follow that argument?
UPDATE
The DummiesU crowd is claiming its not really a Obama office because its all volunteer workers in the office. You see, it only becomes a real office when PAID workers get there…..
Sigh.
Then the Che fanbois came out:
My understanding is that he is a great Latin American Hero, and yes, he was a revolutionary.
Sounds like that’s what George Washington was as well.
You are a fool…..if you think that Che is evil.

Barack “Che” Obama
It’s a distraction Obama’s favorite word! (something he rather not discuss)
Obama is a great speaker I heard someone say. I think he is except I know the power words used and all of the bullshit flowers he plants along in a row. I hate that kind of reading or speech it puts me to sleep! I know bullshit when I hear it!!!
You really need to be a psych major to get it and it’s dangerous when morons like this know how to manipulate a crowd!
Looks like all of you scared lil punks were wrong!!! OBAMA is victor! Long live the Left! If socialiasm is coming, so be it. Down with the imperialistic and capitalistic pigs that come from america.
I see the “I hate America” will totally destroy our country! Like 45!
I am sure glad I transferred my hard earned cash before the drop! And see if I give to loony left causes! Not one red dime of it!!!
In less then a year we will see the true colors! The greed and hand outs from the ones who never had anything. Oh and still not willing to work for it!
Jim Jones convinced folks to drink kool aide too!
Thank God there are more of us that haven’t been born from a prostitute on drugs!
It sounds to me that alot of people are not looking at what Obama is trying to do. He is trying to turn enimies into friends and lighten the laws ristricting Cuban born us residents and citizens from visting their families and renigotiate the block that was placed during the cuban missle crisis. He will be talking to another country Venisuela who by the way hates us, and trying to gain some ground with them and repair our ties with Russia as well. That has nothing to do with the succesful militant Che whom by the way helped Fidel Castro over throw an even worst political power then he was. Before Castro was Batista who tortured the youth for the hell of it. The US just didnt like it when Castro took over because he stopped the free trade and made it comunist. The US was for Batista whom tortured his own people and had anyone that said anything about it taken away where they would do things like take out their eyes, burn their genitailia, pull out teeth then eventually kill them. When i say his own people i meant the young guys around 14 to mid 20s was kindof the thing to do. The US had nothing to say about that because we were in bed with him. The only thing I am proud of about being American is that i can say this without being tortured like other countries. But we have one of the dirtiest countrys from slavery to watergate and when i hear someone talking shit about something that they know nothing about it just makes me sick. Its like false advertisment people will believe anything the media tells them. Obama is our hope to repairing our ties with other countries becasue guess what this country needed other countries right now and instead of holding the man back why dont you for once stand behind your elected president. I sure in hell voted for him and i will not listen to an idiot talking shit. Have a nice day and do some damn research.
@Rita:
Ours was not “the dirtiest country” when it comes to the institution of slavery.
FUCK OFF RITA I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH YOU SOCIALIST WIND BAG!!!
