So has Angelina Jolie lasered off her Che Guevara Tattoo?

This is NOT Jolie.

This is NOT Jolie.

"She (Jolie) hates him (Obama)," a source close to the U.N. goodwill ambassador, (Jolie) 34, tells the new issue of Us Weekly

"She's into education and rehabilitation and thinks Obama is all about welfare and handouts. She (Jolie) thinks Obama is really a socialist in disguise," adds the source.

Yet according to the world's top authority on Che iconography, Trisha Ziff, Ms Jolie sports a seriously Socialist tattoo...?"

    Remember who her papa is, and they've reconciled no to long ago. Age and parenthood often let's people see the error of their past.

    Ang, alls ya gotta do is just a bit more ink and the right tattoo artist and he/she can turn that che-it into this:

    Come on. You can afford it.

    Mike Tyson also has chairman mao as a tattoo. Do you think either of them "get it?" What those people really stood for?

    She is inconsistent which although not unusual in the Hollywood scene it should be in her case. On the one hand she tried to obtain the movie rights to "Atlas Shrugged" stating that it is her favorite book-and wanting to play the part of the heroine, Dagny--yet on the other hand she is with Brad who often spews pukey liberal stuff and hangs with George Clooney (big time pukey liberal). It is curious because everyone (including myself) who reads AS usually achieves consistency in their views-either they love AS and become a rabid libertarian/conservative or they hate it and are rabid progressives/socialists.

  • "Rabid libertarian/conservative." That about describes me, thanks in large part to Ayn Rand.

    Wow, two people are able to have a happy marriage even though they have opposite political views! This keeps my dream alive of one day stealing Hillary away from Bill! She is meant for me!

    ... The one problem with Ayn Rand is her hatred of religion.

    Ironically she had the same views of the Soviets she fled from when it came to the church (although Conservatives usually like to skim over that part of her ethos).

  • Brilliant novelist and philosopher, that Rand. But as a person, she always gave me the creeps...usually scowling and bitching.

    She made Maureen Dowd and Eleanor Clift sound (and look) like the content, ever-smiling Good Witch of the North.

    She was a Libertarian as well as a libertine, but it always seemed to me that Rand wasn't getting nearly enough of that non-committal, relationship-free boinking she always championed--to say nothing about the frequency for the two aforementioned gyno-pundits!

  • I agree with you, Humberto. Rand was a brilliant writer and philosopher, but as a person--at least by what I've read and heard from her in interviews--she was way out there. Not in left field or right field, but out of the stadium completely, a few blocks away in a dank, smoke-filled basement bar.

    Actually, when you analyze the protagonists in her novels, it seems like she was describing her own surreal lifestyle in those characters.

    A strange and peculiar lady, but brilliant nonetheless.

    Does this matter call for a personal first hand investigation (;>)
