Ayers in audience at Wright speech

As I noted on Friday, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright gave speech at Northwestern University. Bill Ayers was in the audience.

From the Daily Northwestern:

Saying his family was "getting lynched" by the media, Wright called on the audience to correct any misinformation they might hear about him.

"Never in the history of this country has there been a demonization of a person like I've been demonized," Wright said.

Ayers, in a similar position during the campaign, does not know Wright well. But the former Weather Underground leader said he felt both he and Wright had been badly characterized during the campaign, but they had survived with their dignity intact.

Well, Wright claims that the US government--as I mentioned last week, the one his former parishioner Barack Obama will soon lead--created the AIDS virus to kill blacks.

Ayers is an unrepentant former terrorist.
