Requires Windows Media Player OK, here's the Video from the ANSWER "Hands-off Cuba, Hands-off Venezuela" protest rally. See more below in previous post. I'll be posting the "Che" gallery below as an update tomorrow. I'm bloody tired. **** ANOTHER UPDATE **** Just in case there was any doubt, the DC Councilman you see shouting "Viva Cuba" in the above video ... Jim Graham ... is, indeed, a Democrat. Just so we know. **** UPDATE **** My Che Gallery is finally up! As I said in the video, "Che" was, er, ubiquitous. At one point during the "speeches" I decided that the only way to save what was left of my desperate sanity was to troll the crowd and collect "Che"s. That I did and kept doing throughout the march. What you see here is not exhaustive of the Che phenomenon. There were many duplicates, for instance. I was also unable to get good photos of some. Still, I think I have a nice array here, fully indicative of the hero-worship this murderous, half-shaven, beret-wearing bastard induces in these morons and fellow-travelers. We'll start off with my favorite. I mean ... just look at this guy. A bar-bell mustache?!? And check the beret. And the pens. What was this guy doing ... signing autographs? Or were the pens there just in case he got that opportunity to collect a phone-number? Lord knows he's missed so many other opportunities ... can't let another one get away after all. Can you be more of a poseur? Then there's this one. This was more or less the "official" Che of the march ... endorsed by none other than ANSWER itself. A pretty standard Che, actually. I was a bit disappointed. Here we have the rare quadruple-Che. Here's a close-up on that sign. A happy, smiling Che. Maybe he just executed another family. He loved that kinda stuff. What a guy. The hard to catch flapping-Che ... The Floating-Che-Head-of-Death consumes South America. Little did we know that Che has his own fashion line ... ... complete with accessories. Rainbow Che, of course. There's something just really goofy about this one. Can't put my finger on it, though. That's all folks. I'll probably do another blog entry on this march pretty soon ... some more random insanity, etc. Maybe not. We'll see.

  3. The sacrifices you make for your readers!

    This video inspired a riff of my own.

    Good work.

  4. Lack of proper role models. Unfortunately, sometime in thier collective, wounded past, the loudest, most bitter finger-pointer became important to them. Been told that their feelings are important and given a microphone and a pass. A classic bash-fest. A sad reaction to thier own misery projected outward towards an illusive image of the evil power that causes thier abused hearts to hate. Drawn to shrill ranting just like empty youth are to rap and bad language. It fills them with something. They would be empty without it. Gives them a target. Fed on hatred. It's a vomit party in the streets. Remember the kid who's parents never told him that picking his nose in public could be embarrasing? Those geeks have united in solidarity. Thanks, ANSWER. We wondered where they all went.

  5. You have my deepest sympathies for enduring the biggest (small) collection of useful idiots I have seen in some time...and being a member of Protest Warrior..I see them all the time.
