(Video) Weather Underground terrorist held fundraiser for NM Dem guv candidate

Blogger in New Mexico
Like a poisonous dandelion, the seeds of the Weather Underground terrorist organization have spread far and wide

One of those seeds has been firmly planted in New Mexico for decades. Of course he's an academic, just as his former terror cohorts Bill Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn, and Kathy Boudin are.

From KRQE-TV:
From the late 60’s to the mid 70's the Weather Underground planted and detonated bombs across the United States. A radical anti-war group with violent methods. One of its cofounders was Mark Rudd. The self described intellectual author of the group's strategy. Rudd – who's lived in Albuquerque for decades – has expressed regret for the group's actions. Just a week and a half ago, Democratic candidate for governor businessman Alan Webber held a fundraiser at Rudd’s Albuquerque home. A day later, Rudd endorsed Webber in an email. Tonight, Webber both distanced himself from Rudd and defended Rudd in a statement quote, "I just met Mark Rudd. Of course I denounce terrorism and understand Mark Rudd regrets his involvement with the radical anti- government group from the 1960's. For over two decades, Mark has been a proponent of non-violence and a teacher at CNM [Central New Mexico Community College]." Another Weather Underground co-founder, Bill Ayers, was in the political spotlight in 2008 for his ties to then-candidate Barack Obama.
Oh, I almost forgot, here's the video:
