The not-so-funny joke
The race promoter who was under the impression his humor was too advanced for Cuban Americans has come to the conclusion that his joke was not so funny. It seems that although celebrating a mass murderer in a town filled with the families of his victims seemed like a hilarious joke to Jay Lamm, he has now changed his mind.
Carlos Frias at the Palm Beach Post, who has been on top of this story, has the news that the "24 Hours of LeMons" to be held at the Palm Beach International Raceway in December has dropped Che Guevara has its official pitchman and mascot.
Race drops image of Che Guevara for end-of-year event parody
By Carlos Frias
Che Guevara, as it turns out, isn't much of a pitchman in South Florida.
The 24 Hours of LeMons car race is dropping the image of the guerilla fighter from its logo and changing the title of its end-of-the-year event at Palm Beach International Raceway after a groundswell of protest from local fans and drivers.
What started out as a parody quickly became a public relations nightmare for the organizers of the LeMons, a race where drivers fix up junk cars for less than $500 and try to keep them running for a 24-hour endurance event.

Great news.
slowly....ever so slowly we juuuusssst might be chipping-away/making headway against Castroite propaganda? 4 yards in a cloud of dust-- but hey, remember the Target Che deal. Soon we'll go for an onside kick, triple reverse and the bomb!
To show what ignorance we are up against, some Comemierda "RicanBoy76" left this moronic gem on the page:
Idiotic Decision!
But predictable. Miami is populated with the white Cubans who did not want to live in a racially equally society that Che created.
Plus most Cuban exiles only know what their grandparents told them ... most have never set foot in Cuba and only believe the lies of old formerly wealthy dying geriatrics, insane right-wing blogs, or the ramblings of their cowardly grandpas who got their a$$ kicked at the Bay of Pigs and were exchanged in shame by Fidel for baby food!
Mr. Mojito,
The current POTUS was elected because so much ignorance is prevalent in our society.
Freedom,
You are so right.
