Hmm.
Glorifying a mass-murderer like Che Guevara?
A standard-bearer representing what?

the video linked below is taken from the same source that boon mee cited...but this one is a follow up story that actually provides context...

1. the person who put up the cuban flag with che superimposed on it, is cuban..she was born there. as a cuban american, she has the right to post any flag she wants, right?

2. it is NOT an obama campaign office, it is not sanctioned by the obama campaign, and was set up independently from the obama campaign.


MyFox Houston | Flag in Unofficial Obama Office Enrages Some

once again booner's been duped by the rabid right wing bloggers....doesn't he ever get tired of being their fool?

Watch 'The Motorcycle Diaries'. It's a lovely film.
If you're political, just ignore the fact Ernesto is che'.

The Berkeley City Council voted in the early hours of Wednesday to reverse its controversial declaration that U.S. Marine Corps recruiters were "unwelcome intruders" in the city.

Its vote last month to send a letter to a downtown recruiting station advising the Marines they were not welcome set off a furious backlash. Conservative lawmakers in Washington and Sacramento threatened to cut millions in funding to Berkeley in retaliation. In Wednesday's action, the council -- while affirming its opposition to the war -- decided not to send the letter and to state that recruiters were welcome.

"We failed our city," said Gordon Wozniak, who was one of three council members who voted against the original declaration. "We embarrassed our city."

On Tuesday, antiwar and pro-military activists faced off outside City Hall, protests that led to several scuffles and three arrests, police said.

After backlash, Berkeley welcomes Marines - Los Angeles Times

So much for strength of convictions. When it threatens to cut their funding, their words are eaten.

as i posted ten days ago, this is a non story. it would be very interesting to know how many people have signed on the dotted line in the berkeley recruiting office over the last few years.

the city council is also to blame, because they should have just left well enough alone. if the recruiting center had moved to some place like oakland (or another socio-economically disadvantaged area) they might have actually suckered some kids into signing up. by and large the people in berkeley are too intelligent and too wealthy to join the military.

also, perhaps foxnews and the right wing talk radio hosts that manufactured this 'scandal' (and enraged the rubes on this forum) should direct their outrage at the fact that most likely there are more former marines living on the streets and under bridges than will ever sign up at the berkeley recruiting office.

I've studied Guevara in detail. It's apparent from your comments you haven't. Not revisionism, was merely curious as to how far you're prepared to go with your disigenuousity and/or wilful blindness. The answer to that's not surprising. Remember Boon, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

If you've studied Guevara in 'detail' then you can only describe him as a cold-blooded thug who was little more than Castro's personal hit man...

Get a little objective here, eh?
