Bill Ayers lives in (Obama's) neighborhood. Their kids attend the same school. They're certainly friendly, they know each other, as anyone whose kids go to school together.
Barack Obama's top advisor, David Axelrod, February 26.
Axelrod got the part about their kids wrong, Ayers' are adults, but his fellow ex-terrorist wife Bernardine Dohrn is involved at that school in an unidentified capacity.
Last week former Weather Underground member Bill Ayers, an unrepentant former terrorist, spoke at the University of North Dakota. His next speaking appearance is on Chicago's South Side, at Shimer College, which is located within the campus of the Illinois Institute of Technology.
The talk is called, Trudge Toward Freedom: Education for Liberation, and it will take place in the Cinderella Lounge at 3424 S. State Street.
As I've noted in earlier posts, in a unity tour, then-State Senator Alice Palmer brought Barack Obama to the home of Ayers and Dohrn, since in some eyes they are prominent citizens, and Palmer introduced Obama to the couple as her successor.
Ayers and Obama served together on the board of The Woods Fund, and participated in a few conferences together.
Obama, the man who is so eager to talk with our enemies once he is president, has not spoken publicly about his relationship with Ayers.
