Target Removes Che Guevara Mechandise

Target made itself the target by displaying Guevara related merchandise. Guevara , killed with the assistance of the CIA as he made a futile attempt to incite revolution in  Bolivia, would have despised Target anyway, and would be delighted if he could see this little furor he has caused in the American economy. The Guevara legend lives on, and apparently is more potent than I thought. Of course, mass marketing Che through Target would have defanged him as a figure appealing to the radically chic. After all, what self respecting cutting edge stylehorse wants someone who appears on metal lunchboxes? Che continues to bedevil conservatives, and will become even more desirable to leftist consumers, presumably in the form of a T-shirt with the familiar beret, and a target drawn across his chest.
