From Snopes

I wasn't slinging mud. It's an undeniable image on that video of the Cuban Flag with Che Guevera on it.

I also posted quite quickly that it was not an offical Obama campaign office.

As to your Snopes article you post, it just confirms what I posted. It had nothting to do with Hugo Chavez or Venzuela. Snopes also leaves out one key piece of information about Che Guevera. That is that Che fought with Fidel Castro and Camilo Cienfuegos to over throw Batista and install a communist government. So his image on that Cuban flag has much historical meaning.

EDIT: The only thing that could possibly be construed as not being true in my original post is that I called Senator Obama a communist. However, that remains to be seen.

Awwww crap you caught me.... Um i can't talk about it. I can yap about my phone life, but not Che'bama. Personally i dont think America wants a change....we pulled out a bunch of lazy grandfathered in delegates who just sat around and did nothing. We just want elected officials to do what we elect them to do, we don't want change, socialism, etc. I'm scared as hell knowing that when I get out of school one of these quacks is going to be calling the shots. Personally i dont know who i'm voting for, but i promise HE will be the Red Box on the Election Map Legend/Key.

also, i'll add that worst case scenario is one of em gets elected makes a few moves - people realize they dont like em - house/senate delegates realize they want re-election and start trying to shut down presidential movements. Universal healthcare? thats a joke i don't laugh at...and neither will American wallets. Only good thing that could come from it is i can start smoking better cigars. . .

A cigar sounds great right about now. But it sure ain't gonna be one of them Cuban ones. I like me the cheap Backwoods cigars in a pouch. My humidor took a dive a while back and I lost about $700 worth of cigars. Since then, it's been Backwoods for me.

HORROR STORIES!!!!!! I actually smoke alot of Rocky Patel 90's and 92's and just got hooked on Double Ligero (La flor Dominicana). Not too bad fora college kid. I dont have my own humidor YET but i buy a handful every Sat and they normally last me throughout the week. Last week at Aggie Afficianado's (Texas A&M's Cigar club) we had a few guys smokin Freedom Sticks (AKA Cubans) those lucky bastages. But i'm totally up for keeping the embargo if it means keepin the Whitehouse Red-Right

Im not worried at all to say the least. If either hillary or obahma make it into office they wont last long. I can see the presedential assasination headlines in the near future.

I have had this discussion with several people. We are all in agreement that neither one wouldn't last very long due to an assasination.

People say they want a change, but I don't think they want that kind of change (Obama/Hillary).

I think most people just want someone in office that is going to keep sending them their welfare check.
