Brevity by Dan Thompson for March 25, 2013

He uses that left wing to help him catch air.

Varnes…. you asked for help yesterday…. did you come back to see it?

Why are you using that terrorists image. He wasn’t a freedom fighter that’s Bull Bleeeep!.. All the T-shirts anything w/ that mans Image should be Burned & destroyed.

“Murderer!”“Totally!”

Free radicals!

I don’t know whether to be insulted by the perversion of Comandante Che Guevara’s face being pasted on a skateboard or insulted by all the comments against him that have just preceded me.

HASTA LA VICTORIA, SIEMPRE! VIVA EL CHE!

“Radical!”“Totally!”“Um…who IS that old guy, anyway, Dude?”“Dunno, but I think my grandad has a picture of him in the attic.”

Bet his T-shirt has a picture of Thomas Jefferson on it.

Love comments from those who know absolutely about the life and times of Che!

Susan, yes, thanks, on both counts….

He’s the guerrilla your dreams…

@navy.bean: Hey, what was up with giving me a “duh” on the Gatsby cartoon a few days ago. My question was serious. I am not a student of The Great Gatsby so I did not get the joke.

He’d be the only skater with his own death squad…

I think the key is the word radical. Anyhoo, here is all I could come up with:

I followed Cuban politics quite a bit (having married (in 1959) a Cuban who came to US to escape the previous regime). When they began the “redistribution of property” (like Obama and our other left are doing with wealth) I called it Communism and most of the Cubans who are here now would agree. That was the first serious argument w my X. We divorced in 1975 and he died in 1986.

@DazzYou DO realize that tax rates under Obama are FAR lower than they were under Reagan? (I won’t even bring up Eisenhower!)

The same people who spout that re-distributionist crap need to read Milton Friedman, and quick.

OK can anyone tell me who this man is? I’ve seen his image everywhere and never know who he is. And you can’t google an image.

Thanks, CoBass…..

I was about to do that!

Good to know you’re still on guard against the forces of darkness….

Haven’t seen you around much.

Godfreydaniel: Americans did pay more at the time of Reagan’s election in 1980 than they did in 2010, says Harvard economist Greg Mankiw at his blog, but that was Jimmy Carter’s doing, not Reagan’s. The Gipper “did not become president until January 1981, and his tax policy was not fully implemented until a couple of years later (and arguably not until his second term, when we got very significant tax reform).” The Times has it wrong.
