Bill O'Reilly played the 2002 audio, and was quick to mention that the interview took place while Obama still was serving on the board of The Woods Fund with Ayers.
Stop The ACLU posted a six minute video based on that comment, and some others by Ayers--and Obama.
Powerful stuff.

Bill Ayers comes across as one of those people (and we all know at least one) who smells like pee.
ReplyDeleteWhen will McCain and the Republicans give back the thousands of dollars they got from people who know Ayers?!
ReplyDeleteEeek. It's like they're palling around with terrorists. And unrepentant. Also.
;)
(You'd think conservative partisans would get a clue upon seeing poll after poll which says the American people not only are uninterested in playing six-degrees-of-malarkey but are actually turned off by it and think less of John McCain when he continues to promote it... Suit yourselves if you want to keep shooting yourself in the foot.)
thousands of dollars...
ReplyDeleteThat's not very much money.
While I'll agree that the American public (the same one which spends $0.90 a call to vote for American Idol; knows more about Brittany Spears than they do the Constitution; and couldn't name the last five presidents, in order, or by name) can't comprehend the impact of Ayers, nor the ramifications of such - and the GOP needs to drop it.
ReplyDeleteThe better angle would be to demonstrate how Barack's answers evolve over time.
From a guy in the neighborhood to ... oh, hey, I DID blurb his book, shared an office with him and may have even babysat the guy's kids a few times.
And, my fav: I could have sworn he'd rehabilitated (regardless of the many times when he said that he wasn't).
Awesome.
Besides, there's a big difference between palling around with terrorists by taking their money and working side by side with them.

...I still think it's creepy the way Ayers and Dohrn are accepted in Chicago, and Obama's acceptance is part of that creepiness. I also think that if Obama wasn't running for President Noah would admit this. ... P.S.: What is it with Chicago? Is it Australia? Do they have to take anybody they can get there? I always thought L.A. was Australia.. ... 2:54 A.M.
