Would you accept an swastika hanging in a McCain office because it wasnt an "official" office?
I think a Che flag is in bad taste, while a swastika is unacceptable. The difference may have something to do with the swastika referring to mass genocide across an entire continent, 6 million exterminated Jews, all that. Che Guevara may have been
a ruthless and loathsome figure (and anyone who primarily associates Che with the romanticized movie image of this guy "studying medicine, travelling through South America, sympathizing with the impoverished" should read that thread) -- but come on, he was no Hitler.
oh.........so it's ok as long as he committed
fewer[/u] murders than Hitler?
In that case, just about any criminal is ok, because few if any will ever equal the total #s Hitler was responsible for.
So, if Obama campaign offices feature pics of Ted Bundy or Jeffrey Dahmer, it's all good, eh?
