Che Guevara's Whacking -- A Glorious Anniversary
The American Thinker ^ | October 09, 2009 | Humberto Fontova

Posted on 10/09/2009 3:21:55 AM PDT by Scanian

Forty two years ago today, Ernesto "Che" Guevara got a major dose of his own medicine. Without trial he was declared a murderer, stood against a wall and shot. Historically speaking, justice has rarely been better served. If the saying "What goes around comes around" ever fit, it's here.

"When you saw the beaming look on Che's face as the victims were tied to the stake and blasted apart by the firing squad," said a former Cuban political prisoner, to your humble servant, "you saw there was something seriously, seriously wrong with Che Guevara." As commander of the La Cabana execution yard, Che often shattered the skull of the condemned man (or boy) by firing the coup de grace himself. When other duties tore him away from his beloved execution yard, he consoled himself by viewing the slaughter. Che's second-story office in La Cabana had a section of wall torn out so he could watch his darling firing-squads at work.

I wish I had a nickel for every stupid kid I see in the Che T-Shirt. That damn icon is yet another reason why I hate my generation so much.

I even verbally accost them from time to time, by reminding them that their communist buddy shot innocent people in the head execution style while their hands were tied behind their backs.

Nothing more satisfying than remembering how a bloody psychopath got a dose of his own medicine in the end.

If there are any films left of the Havana firing squads in action, they should be required viewing in every US high school.

Ernesto Guevara Lynch: Upper Middle Class Argie whiteboy pseudo badass idolized by Upper Middle Class American whiteboy pseudobadasses.

Eternal thanks to the Injuns in Bolivia who turned him in.

This same self-loathing - which manifests itself in a hatred for those they think caused their problems - permeates the entire left. It is the basis for which they mobilize their forces to action.

Make no mistake about it, the left in America has the same level of hate in them for (take your pick) white males, Christians, Republicans, and anyone who opposes them. When they say, "We're gonna call you out!" they mean it.

Bill Ayers, Obama's neighborhood Marxist friend, and Bernadette Dorn of the weather underground, postulated that 25 million Americans will have to die to bring the US to socialism.

I believe this administration is putting the mechanisms in place to fulfill this prophesy.

Nah, just a really blank stare or a look of disbelief.

Hard reality is such a slap in the face for democrats.

Let's not forget to thank Fidel. It was he that sent Dr. Guevara on that suicide mission to Bolivia. Seems Che's popularity and the tee-shirt sales were making Fidel a wee bit nervous ... not to mention jealous.

Only room for one hot dog at the old Cuban ball game!
BTW, Had a McGee Moment about this when interviewing for an adjunct teaching spot at a well known college. I guess ripping the Che Poster off my prospective boss's wall, tossing it on her desk, and storming out was not the best interviewing technique. However, I did like "Motorcycle Diaries." Who could have guessed that the young Che was a combo of Dr. Albert Schweitzer, Jesus ,and Francis of Assisi, even if not much of a mechanic? Maybe falling off that Vincent Black Shadow damaged his brain, turning him into the psychopathic Marxist mass murderer only about half of us have come to know? The other half, of course, is still buying the tee-shirt and the poster.

I love it.The inventor of "revolutionary justice" (or was that Mao?) got a great big dose of it himself.I'll bet that the sadness of this anniversary has put a damper on the celebrations over Hussein's Piece Prize for the DUmpster Kids.

We will have a day like that when Obama and his crew are forced to stand trial for treason and put behind bars for a very long time.
Note I didnt say executed. Jail would be a better place for these people. Hard labor at the Levenworth gravel factory.
