Barack Obama previously admitted that terrorist Bill Ayers launched his career.

Today it was reported that not only were terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn cavorting with America's enemies during wartime, but they were given rings from the North Vietnamese made from US planes shot down over Vietnam.
Scott Swett and Roger Canfield have this shocking report today at American Thinker:

Even before Weatherman began its notorious bombing campaign, the group's future leaders had formed relationships with others who shared their hatred for "Amerikkka."

Bernadine Dohrn made numerous contacts with Fidel Castro's Cuban Mission at the UN in 1968 and 1969, during which time she arranged for SDS groups to visit Havana.

After returning from Cuba, Dohrn and others met with North Vietnamese and Viet Cong representatives in Budapest, Hungary, to discuss antiwar strategy on US campuses. Speaking a few days later at an assembly of revolutionary student movements at Columbia University, Dohrn reported that the Vietnamese communists she met in Budapest were working with US GIs in Saigon, attempting to obtain military information.

As a gesture of solidarity, the Vietnamese who Dohrn met in Budapest presented her with a ring made from an American aircraft shot down over North Vietnam. Bill Ayers would receive a similar ring while meeting with Vietnamese communists in Toronto. He later recalled being so moved by the gesture that he "left the room to cry." He said, "I realized...America was an evil... and that I was... living inside the belly of the beast...."
Isn't it comforting to know that these terrorists launched Barack Obama's career?

UPDATE: Obama must have learned something from all of his time with Ayers.
Today, The One is trying to silence another journalist who dared to write something negative about him.

And they of the MSM and the Marxist-leaning say that a book by a former radical now turned conservative which amply documents the efforts of substantial numbers of Democrats to help our enemies in war against us is misleading.

You’re always welcome to move, Bill.

And take your trash wife with you.

Perhaps the rings were made from John McCain’s own plane? We’ll never know, but if it could be proven....

I wish upon Ayers and Dohrn the exact things they have done to others over the years. Great big ones with lots of boom, boom, boom.

It is extremely ironic that these people, who have committed violence against the USA and its people, promote the downfall of the US Government - live public lives, unmolested in peace and upper middle-class prosperity in one of our largest cities.

David Horowitz wrote about this in his book Radical Son. I had forgotten all about it (10 years since I read it), and I'm very glad it's coming to light. I'm going to forward this to a lot of fellow veterans.

Lots of info on the ObamaRat-commie connections at my FR Profile/Home page. Everything there is linked directly to its source. I've now added within-page links and a 'clickable' table of contents which makes it easy to hop around to the various sections:
