Cuban Americans are angry at the Burlington Coat Factory for marketing a line of Che Guevara T-shirts, just in time for Christmas

National Review, Dec 27, 2004

* Cuban Americans are angry at the Burlington Coat Factory for marketing a line of Che Guevara T-shirts, just in time for Christmas. Why only Cuban Americans? The Argentine-born Guevara was a violent thug who cruised around Latin America looking for countries to revolutionize (the recent biopic about him, The Motorcycle Diaries, is soft-core Communism, nothing else).

He died trying to conquer Bolivia. Hey, Burlington--how about Osama sweaters? Zarqawi scarves? Himmler would look cool on leather.
