The leaders of the faculty of the University of Illinois at Chicago are weighing whether they will wade into the fray and come to the aid of a terrorist.
Last week the board of UIC denied domestic terrorist and close Obama confidant William Ayers the emeritus status he sought upon his retirement. The reason he was denied is due to his own words as laid down in the dedication to his 1974 screed.
In that dedication, Ayers celebrated murderer and political assassin Sirhan Sirhan, the man who killed Bobby Kennedy as he ran for president in 1968.
Unfortunately for Ayers, though, it just so happened that the son of Bobby Kennedy sits on the same UIC board that Ayers had to appeal to for his last little undeserved academic plum. At Kennedys urging, the board denied the domestic terrorist's accolade.
Disgustingly, these university pinheads are blaming the board for denying this killer his last little celebration and claiming it is the board, rather than the terrorist, who is at fault here. These amoral faculty members are upset that Kennedy made Ayers's case "personal" rather than "academic."
Ayers celebrates the murderer of the man's father and these faculty folks dont see that as personal? Seems to me that Ayers is the one that made it personal when he celebrated a murderer!
Cool, maybe they can get Zer0 to provide a ringing endorsement.
Since Uhbummer agrees with Ayers maybe the annointed one will ask Ayers to do that Sirhan thing on Him..Uhbummer and Ayers, you are stooopid...
For the life of me, I don’t know why this man and his scumming wife aren’t in prison.
Cut their pay to a dollar a day.
Hit these greedbags right where they live & withold contributions for awhile - lets see how committed to their marxist principles they really are.
interesting how far down Bobby has fallen.
if it wasn’t Kennedy’s dad, would Kennedy have voted for Ayers emeritus status ?
You can bet he would have!
I think you know the answer to that question.And,if you're as old as me (or older) you know that his old man would have voted in Ayers' favor as well.
Close UIC. Get rid of the liberal B. No benefits, no pensions nothing. Bulldoze it down. Sign posted - this is what happens to a university and its faculty when they support an unreptenant domestic terrorist. William Ayers needs to be arrested and placed in prison and everything he owns confiscated. There is no statute of limitations on being a domestic terrorist. His scum bag wife should be arrested too.
"Their founding document [the Weather Underground's] called for the establishment of a "white fighting force" to be allied with the "Black Liberation Movement" and other "anti-colonial" movements[1] to achieve "the destruction of US imperialism and the achievement of a classless world: world communism."..."-Berger, Dan (2006).

"they [the Weather Underground] employed revolutionary jargon, advocated armed struggle and black liberation and began bombing buildings, taking responsibility for at least 20 attacks. Estimates of their number ranged at times from several dozen to several hundred."

"Ayers, now a tenured distinguished professor of education at UIC, works to educate teachers in socialist revolutionary ideology, urging that it be passed on to impressionable students.
One of Ayer's descriptions for a course called 'Improving Learning Environments' says prospective K-12 teachers need to 'be aware of the social and moral universe we inhabit and ... be a teacher capable of hope and struggle, outrage and action, teaching for social justice and liberation.
The Annenberg papers are quite extensive 132 boxes containing 947 file folders with 70 linear feet of material. They undoubtedly contain more surprises regarding Obama's relationship with Ayers, one of many relationships Obama has sought to hide.'..."

"As a gesture of solidarity, the Vietnamese who [Bernardine] 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.' "

"It was at the Chicago home of [Bill] Ayers and [Bernardine] Dohrn that Obama, then an up-and-coming 'community organizer,' had his political coming out party in 1995. Not content with this rite of passage in Lefty World where unrepentant terrorists are regarded as progressive luminaries, still working 'only to educate' both Obamas tended to the relationship with the Ayers."

Ayers: Obama was 'family friend'
New afterword to 2001 book, Ayers describes Barack Obama as 'family friend'
http://www.suntimes.com/news/politics/obama/1278532,bill-ayers-barack-obama-book-111308.article#
This is a title denoting a status that Ayers could easily live without. Why is he preoccupied with personal status when he could be with the comrades cutting sugarcane in Cuba and cultivating the ideology? This is the mark of a shallow and vain man. A man who wants status from established and traditional institution — the next thing you know he will want protection from the police — what happened to the revolution?
