RFK widow Ethel Kennedy ‘loves’ Che Guevara, ‘has a subversive streak
NY Post ^ | 4/15/2020 | Carl Campanile and Bernadette Hogan

Ethel Kennedy has learned to stop worrying and love Che Guevara.

The 92-year-old Kennedy clan matriarch’s late husband Robert and brother-in-law, President John F. Kennedy, may have faced off against a Russia-aligned Cuba in the infamous 1962 Missile Crisis — but that didn’t stop her from putting the face of the communist nation’s revolutionary hero on a mantle at her Palm Beach home, The Post has learned.

In fact, her family says she’s been a fan of Guevara for years — and makes no apology about it.

“My mom loves Che Guevara. Her dog is named Che,” her son, Robert Kennedy Jr., told The Post. “My mom has a subversive streak.”

So, if she was so proud of being a fan of Che, why did they remove the Tweet?

I like the pic where he’s on the slab, full of bullet holes, with his toes wiggling. Heh.

Loving a homicidal sociopath doesn't make one subversive. I would more accurately call it dementia. Or amorality.

Che was very good at using a handgun to put bullets into the heads of his victims. How did Ethel become a widow?

Or Heydrich.

Actually was considered to be very handsome.

Everyone, outside of Hitler himself, despised Heydrich. One reportedly said, “They finally got that Jew Bastard” when they heard he died.

My beloved 84 year old Grandmother, who passed away last May and who I loved very much, was one of the most dedicated Democrat voter would ever meet.

She LITERALLY worshiped the ground FDR walked on.

That whole Generation never meet a Big Government Progressive they didn't LOVE.

Surprising. As he was such a dedicated Nazi I would have thought it would have been the opposite.

There were always rumors about Heydrich’s background.

They also knew that Heydrich had all the dirt on everyone in the party.. Hitler even told Himmler that he wouldn’t survive 24 hours if anything happened to Heydrich.

Some think Hitler would have designated Heydrich as his replacement. That’s how much Hitler thought of him.

I think he was pretty arrogant and power-hungry, even by Nazi standards.

Ethel Kennedy comes from a very wealthy family, the Skakels, which makes it odd that she admires someone who would exterminate her type and take their money for their own use (the first among equals, CIA estimated the Castro family to be worth $ 7 billion due to theft). Ethel has a long history of being a first class, no class cheapskate; she was known for going to local department stores to “buy” a dress for an event, wearing it and then returning it as a reject after the party so she could get her money back. She has a murderer for a nephew who got a get out of jail card when the Connecticut Supreme Court got Kennedy-loving liberals in the majority who voided the fat bastard’s just conviction for murdering Martha Moxley by one vote. And Che Guevara not only hated gays, he was an overt racist who despised black people, writing that they were inferior.

A broken clock will occasionally read the right time.

I simply do not place “homophobia” in any context alongside racism, oppression of the church, or any such thing.

Homosexual acts should have remained illegal everywhere.

No wonder RFK was also banging Marilyn Monroe with his bro.
