Che-bama?
Hey Che, how many Obama supporters did you sign up today?
This pic of a Houston-based Obama group originates with a Fox affiliate broadcast. (See the video here–as a real Che hater, I swear to Raul Castro that the talking dog in the car dealership ad right before the vid is far scarier than this mashup of the Cuban flag).
It's making the round of right-wing websites ranging from Captain's Quarters (aye, aye, Cap'n Ed!) to National Review to Newsbusters.
Sadly, the Fox affiliate has robbed most of the juice from this one by noting on its website: "The office featured in this video is funded by volunteers of the Barack Obama Campaign and is not an official headquarters for his campaign."
Hit & Runners, what say you? Righteous commie outrage or phoney right-wing fooferaw?
Update: NRO's Jim Geraghty is reporting that the Obama campaign has stressed this rag not a flag aint' in an "official" office (scare quotes are NRO's) and the candidate's people have called the flag "inappropriate," which moves Geraghty to write, "I'm mildly surprised that Team Obama called the Che flag, 'inappropriate' instead of merely 'controversial' or some milquetoast term."
