It blows my mind to see anyone wearing a Che Guevara t-shirt. How can they? It just makes me want to spit on them. I dare any of them to wear that t-shirt down in the Cuban section of Florida.

I know, so many in my generation are blind to history though. "History began the day they were born" for most of them. I can imagine being an escapee from the Island of Cuba and seeing that nonsense on citizens of their adopted homeland, it must be perplexing.

The ultimate irony for me is Che, the capitalist star. On album covers, t-shirts, you name it, he's on it. I thoroughly doubt that most young people wearing a Che t-shirt have a clue who he was or what he was about. For most youth it's about idealism -- nevermind what *kind* of idealism, especially left of center.

The only reason they wear the stupid shirts is that they have had some liberal college professor fill their heads with the idea that che is some kinda hero... they never tell these kids that other side of the story.
