The cult of Che, I mean, Obama


I received this comment from a reader.



"This is a volunteer office that is not in any way controlled by the Obama campaign. We were disappointed to see this picture because it is both offensive to many Cuban-Americans -- and Americans of all backgrounds -- and because it does not reflect Senator Obama’s views. Barack Obama has been very clear in putting forward a Cuba policy that is based on one principle: freedom for the Cuban people." -- Obama campaign.

The fact that the Obama people have distanced themselves from this office is really beside the point.

The point is, these are the types of people who are supporting Obama, communists and communist sympathizers.

What does that say about Obama himself? The cult of personality that threw Castro, Chavez, et al. into power resembles Obama.

It's no coincidence that Obama received another powerful endorsement the other day from none other than Daniel Ortega, Nicaraguan President and leader of the communist backed sandinistas.
"It's not to say that there is already a revolution under way in the U.S. ... but yes, they are laying the foundations for a revolutionary change," the Sandinista leader said Wednesday night as he accepted an honorary doctorate from an engineering university."

As I say repeatedly about the issues and candidates, I look to see who's backing what/who and that tells me more than any speech will and I see communists supporting Obama. Plain and simple.

Oh, by the way, if you need a refresher course on what a nice guy Che Gueverra was try this.

Excerpt
"The U.S. is the great enemy of mankind!" raved Ernesto "Che" Guevara in 1961. "Against those hyenas there is no option but extermination. We will bring the war to the imperialist enemies' very home, to his places of work and recreation. The imperialist enemy must feel like a hunted animal wherever he moves. Thus we'll destroy him! We must keep our hatred against them (the U.S.) alive and fan it to paroxysms!"
