For those still unfamiliar with the “mainstream” William Ayers, as Barack Obama described him on his campaign web site, this 2006 interview with Venezuelan socialist Luis Bonilla-Molina, founder of the Centro Internacional Miranda (CIM). In this clip, Ayers speaks about how the Vietnam War forced an escalation of tactics to violence and notes the terrorist Weather Underground as a “great teaching moment” — a telling description for this professor of education:

With ‘friends’ like this need anyone wonder where Obama Hussein is coming from?

Can someone direct me to something that explains who Bill ayers is and what he did? What is his link to Obama?

Do a Google search for Willam Ayers, terrorism, Pentagon bombing, attempted bombing (where his freaks blew themselves up), Weathermen.

He is a hard core Marxist that believes in radical and violent overthrow of the fascist US government. Of course, mentioning that Russia, China, Venezuela, etc are all leftist fascist governments. But they are LEFTIST fascists which is OK with Ayres, Obama and the Hollywood lunatics like Glover and Penn.

Obama and Ayers were the principals involved in the Chicago Annenberg Challenge. Obama was the chair, a position he got from Ayers, who was the founder.

This is the most comprehensive study of that relationship:

Currently, the University of Illinois at Chicago is blocking public access to the records of the Annenberg Challenge which it holds in its archive.

Stanley Kurtz, a journalist at the National Review has been attempting to gain access to the Annenberg documents.

Here's his account of that attempt:

A really great “teaching moment” would be a huge backlash against terrorist-lover Obambi and the people who have brought him this far — let’s make his campaign not only a loser, but a crash-and-burn disaster that will shock and embarrass the Demagogues for many years to come. By rights Obambi should lose worse that McGovern in ‘72.

If that could happen due to the onslaught of info into the public arena, as millions of people learn what a weak-kneed appeaser of terrorists, Islamo-fascists, and all kinds of radical Obambi really is, the left wing of the Democrat Party will be discredited for a long time to come. That would be very beneficial for our political life and our nation.

Agreed. Between the infanticide vote, and the Ayers connection (and then there's Wright, Rezko, etc.) Obama should by rights be sent to political oblivion.

I'm not sure it will happen because the MSM is so agog over this clown and they will carry weight for him, no matter what. Something they never did for McGovern.

I was arguing with my ueber-liberal aunt in law about the Bill Ayers connection to Obama, and finally she just blurted out, “it just doesn’t bother me”. Absolutely chilling how these people think and what they are willing to rationalize.
