  1. Indeed.
    Kate, don’t you ever go “tee hee” instead of “heh”?
    After all, there’s a “tee” (shirt) involved here, so “tee hee” would be a cute little pun…

  3. What a friggin joke….some day the Nobel Peace Prize may actually become a prize of prestige once again…given to people who actually deserve it!

  6. I think the reverse – Obama wearing a Che shirt – may actually have happened at some point.

  7. How about Obama in a Che beret with the Che raidant emanations?
    Now we know the answer to the question: “What happens when teh Hippies get power?”
    Stupendous debt, waste and destruction of the economy. Abd we must akll hold hands and sing la-la-la-dee-la.

    Think it’s more like KUMBAYA!!!!!!!!

  11. Saw Che calendar for sale in McNally Robinson (book sellers), Saskatoon yesterday. In the children’s section no less. It is weird how a mass murder is an icon among the lefties and the unwitting high school and university crowd. I doubt though that the teachers and professors have anything to do with this.

  14. Nice t-shirt, we had good laughs.
    Instead of ‘HOPE’ it should have said ‘DISAPPOINTMENT’, but the Che’s of today do not yet know.

  16. Where is the bona fides AK-47 with 40mm GP-30 underbarrel grenade launcher?
    Obama T-shirt certainly doesn’t do Che Guevara any justice.
    You need a nice Che quote emblazoned below the photo like:
    “I don’t care if I fall as long as someone else picks up my gun and keeps on shooting.”

  17. Waaay off topic: Danielle smith wins the WRA leadership vote going away. After the pathetic tv address by stelmach (where they have yet to admit they made any mistakes) this past week the leadeship vote he faces at the annual convention this week could mean the end of his term as
    premier – remarkable.

  18. Pure perfection in uniting the symbols. But, our poor Marxist dupes I’m afraid aren’t going to make it to the Promised Land with the vacuous Empty Suit this time around. They are going to have to mount an armed coup next time around which is pretty tough for girlie boy lefties in urban guerrilla drag.

    I hope you’re right….on second thought, no I don’t.
    Hope is the platitude of the weak, perseverance is the walk of the honorable.

  21. I for one am not going to start believing that Ohbummer is a psychopath like Che. He’s better than that … isn’t he?

  23. Too good and too true.
    My sister has an anti-Che t-shirt and people always ask with bewildered faces what it means. It means that a boy-killer shouldn’t be a part of a mass consumerist and philosophical campaign, that’s what.
    Vote for Pedro.

  24. Ché Hey, it’s Obama in the grassy-green zone of S.D.A. – South Democratic America… I appreciate the pictoral association and the overall message of HOPE!! On the side, CONGRATS to Danielle Smith and her lovely flower-power image to lead the Wild Rose.

  28. sooooooo in 40 years The B.O. will have his mug recognized, in that pose, all over the world? an icon living prominently amongst us for a change?
    that’s a big part of the comparison!

  29. Phantom – folks here need very little (shall I dangle a CBC out there to start the corgis yapping?) to be cranky!

  33. We have an ‘antique shop’ here in Nanaimo that featured an original Mao propoganda poster. Mao was surrounded by young, smiling Chinese ‘working class’ women.
    I asked the proprietor why he would feature a mass murderer in his front window, yet he clearly didn’t get it – after all, Mao is an ‘icon’.
    I asked him if he’d feature a similar poster of Adolph Hitler, but he didn’t see any connection whatsoever.
    Sad, really.

  36. It’s interesting how they make heroes out of villains! Gotta figure that our someday!

  38. Great T-shirt! A picture says a thousand words. I’ve been around awhile and do you know the only people who “admire” Mao? Communists. That’s who. Oh sure, in fairness, they’re the “if only we could have “real” or “true” communism”, communists. Maybe calling themselves socialists, for now. But hey one day you may have to make an omelet, you know.

  41. Che has always been a personal hero of mine … and I am well aware that he had a few hundred war criminals shot against a wall.
    I wish the world had more Che’s today.

  43. I’ve often wondered why Canadian kids are so anxious to celebrate the ‘hero’ of some other country (Argentina?) when we have our own hero whose image should appeal to them. Why doesn’t someone start making Louis Riel T-shirts. I bet they would sell like hotcakes.

  46. nv53, right … that’s why the right-wing loves Bush who killed a million Iraqi’s or Reagan who’s contra death squads killed several hundred thousand Latin Americans … “but, but that meany Che had a few hundred torturers and rapists shot after a revolution” (eye roll)

  47. Ronald Radosh disagrees with you, Jake, re: “el Contrarevoluciones”.

    “I think this makes it official: the liberal Brookings Institution is apparently no longer bothering to update their Iraq Index, with the last update having been done on September 1st. Final score: 8500-11000 MW of power (vs. 4000 prewar), vastly improved access to potable water/sanitation/trash removal, something like five hundred times as many cellphones, a million people with Internet access in a country that previously had essentially none, a tripling of GDP, billions in foreign investment, national debt halved, and thousands of trained judges. Even the endemic fuel shortages appear much ameliorated, with the number of Iraqis saying they had good access to fuel rising from 19% in 2008 to 68% this year. Oh yeah, and a fairly liberal Arab constitutional democracy with basic rights for minorities, including the rights of voting, free press, free assembly, and free speech.
    “Meanwhile, the security situation in Iraq is better than ever (and far, far better than the average ~7,000 a month killed under Saddam), with icasualties reporting an incredibly low 158 deaths total in September — the lowest ever recorded.”

    The discredited Lancet study, which relied on Ba’ath Arab Socialist stringers to compile the data, says 1,000,000. Others have a considerably lower estimate. As the article above says the genocidal Saddam was killing ~7,000 a month from 1979-2003.
    Anything else, Jake?

  49. did jwkozak91 just cite “classicalvalues.org” to justify and excuse an illegal imperialist invasion and genocide of a million people … why yes I think he did.

  50. WRT Cuba,
    I’ve read that from 1959-2007, the equivalent of 5% of the Cuban population was killed by their own government. That’s a lot of omelets.
    Ronald Radosh can also recount his visit to a Cuban mental institution in the early 1980s where he met a gay male, imprisoned because homosexuality was a “counterrevolutionary deviancy”.
