A Marxist Image

Obama Campaign Office in Houston Caught Displaying Cuban Flag With Picture of Che Guevara

The excellent website Captain's Quarters found an interesting picture.  It shows the Barack Obama campaign office in Houston with a Cuban flag bearing the likeness of Ernesto (Che) Guevara on the wall.  Barack Obama refuses to wear an American flag pin in his lapel, but a Cuban flag with a terrorist's picture decorates the wall of one of his campaign offices.

Here is the picture:

Why does Senator Obama tolerate this tribute to a terrorist in his campaign office?

Che Guevara was a totalitarian and a close associate of Fidel Castro.  They were strongly pro-Soviet and hated America.  Che presided over Communist Cuba's first firing squads.  He started Cuba's labor camps, in which the regime there would eventually lock up gays, dissidents, AIDS victims, and others who ran afoul of the regime.  He was killed in 1967 trying to foment a violent revolution in Bolivia.  These are just a few of Che Guevara's atrocities.  Yet his image is "chic" in left-wing circles in the West.

Does Senator Obama really intend to have his campaign honor such a man?  If not, he should order that flag removed at once.  I'm not holding my breath.
