I’d love to somehow bring back people living 75-100 years ago, and let them see what hollywood is pandeing out as “heros”. They would be truly horrorfied.

According to Chris "tingles", Che was 'kind of cute'.

From MSNBC Hardball with Chris Matthews (transcript)
March. 21, 2006:

KRISTINN, FREEREPUBLIC.COM: We have kids that wear Che Guevara shirts here in the United States.

MATTHEWS: Yes, but they're kind of cute at this point, aren't they? They're not about somebody out to get us now. I think there's a difference. I mean, that's kind of camp almost, isn't it?...is Che Guevara the symbol of hate in the United States anymore?

KRISTINN: Yes.

MATTHEWS: I don't think so. I mean, a lot of our kids wear them. I see kids wearing them all the time, even my kids wear them.

Che flag sends 'disturbing' message about Obama
Candidate attracts 'people who think mass murderers are romantic revolutionaries'

The Fox TV affiliate in Houston has captured images of a volunteer in a campaign office for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama working in front of a flag featuring the image of Che Guevara, the South American revolutionary who became Fidel Castro's executioner after the communist takeover in Cuba.

And while the Obama campaign has issued a statement placing a modest distance between the campaign and its "volunteers," the issue of such an image on display in an office operating on behalf of a man hoping to be commander in chief of the world's last remaining superpower is raising alarms.

Even Obama supporters have been forced into corners because of the issue, with one likening the Texas state Republican Party to Guevara, to whom have been attributed hundreds of executions of anti-Castro leaders.

Under the heading "Barack Guevara," Investor's Business Daily raised some of the more pointed questions, to which the campaign responded only with a statement: "The office featured in this video is funded by volunteers of the Barack Obama Campaign and is not an official headquarters for his campaign. ..."

Wow. This is a keeper.

Che was becoming more popular, so Castro sent him off on a suicide mission to Bolivia hoping to soon have a dead legend rather than a live rival.

He rounded up and killed most of the young pop musicians playing early rock and roll in Cuba.
He liked to watch the executions.

I surfed into the movie “Shutter Island”. Thought it had recived decent reviews or had been called ‘very scary’ or some such thing. Stuck around to see what it was about. Discovered, according the DiCaprio character, that Shutter Island was the warehouse for all of the failed mind experiments (people)committed by a top secret CIA group funded by the HUAC and which apparently availed itself of ex NAZI doctors. Too evil for me. Surfed out
