The Boston Globe has a very interesting article here about Obama staffers and Che Guevara. One interesting point that they bring up is that no politician in his right mind would allow staffers to wear David Dukes shirts, or have pictures of Hitler in their office. Why is is acceptible that a murderous thug like Guevara have some kind of mystique amongst the more liberal of our population. His cult hero status on the left is truly dispicable. I wonder if this might have some effect on his chances in the general. Particularly amongst the Cuban voters.

Guess that’s one way to say cold-blooded.
“vast competence”
Yeah…ok. The U.S. actually decided to pass up asassinating che because he was so inept as a leader that we thought he would do more damage to his own organization if left in charge. Doesn’t take much vast competence and great intelligence to murder.
