The Democrats' Front Runner

Just when you thought that the Democrats couldn't dig any deeper and reveal their true nature, something jumps out and shows what the real deal is. While the media is still focused on Obama winning a Grammy last night, someone bothered to look at the campaign offices he's just opened.



In this case, it's Barack Obama's new campaign office in Houston, Texas. Nice flag.

Too bad it isn't the United States flag.

That's Cuba's flag.

And that is the image of Che Guevara on the flag. Yes, that Che Guevara.

You know, a mass murdering thug who roamed Cuba and Latin America pushing his socialist ideas until even Fidel Castro got uncomfortable around him and sent him packing.

Don't look for Obama to repudiate this and don't look for Hillary to capitalize on this either. It's just not going to happen. After all, she's got no problem being photographed with Che in frame as well.

The guy that Teddy Kennedy has all but anointed as the chosen one to inherit the mantle of his brother would make JFK spin at 20,000 rpm if he knew what Obama was up to. To allow his office to even be seen with a Cuban flag flying, let alone harbor someone who finds Che desirable would be repugnant to JFK and all that he stood for.

What is so curious is that no one who was involved in filming that story noted what they were filming. Did they not find it curious that a Cuban flag with Che's image was proudly featured in the office?

Sure, someone could claim that this is just the opinion of his local staffers, but it is his campaign, and it is his image that is at stake from even the appearance of condoning the likes of Che.

As Don Surber correctly notes, it's a good thing Obama didn't even try to break the embargo on the Florida vote. Cuban-Americans wouldn't take this kind of imagery lying down.
