Author Defends Claim That Ayers Helped With Obama’s Memoir (CNN video interview)
CNN ^ | Sept. 27, 2009

"I definitely do not say he 'wrote' Barack Obama's book."

Editor's note: This is a quote from the section of Anderson's book that deals with Ayers role in Obama's writing -- These oral histories, along with a partial manuscript and a truckload of notes, were given to Ayers. "Everyone knew they were friends and that they worked on various projects together," another Hyde Park neighbor pointed out. "It was no secret. Why would it be? People liked them both." In the end, Ayers's contribution to Barack's Dreams From My Father would be significant--so much so that the book's language, oddly specific references, literary devices, and themes would bear a jarring similarity to Ayers's own writing...thanks to help from the veteran writer Ayers, Barack would be able to submit a manuscript to his editors at Times Books."

I thought Barry said during the presidential campaign that Ayers was just “some guy who lived down the street”. Don’t tell me Barry lied to us again!

And if Obama’s really such a creative rhetorical genius, why do we need the TOTUS for everything?

When things really start to go south for us, all the pent-up lies will come bursting out. The people who are laboring to cover up for Obama won't feel the same level of motivation they do now. It won't be worth the effort any more, once the fantasy becomes unsustainable and ordinary people are laughing at them.

The SRM have set up a situation in which there is tremendous stored "potential energy," not physical energy in the way scientists know it, but societal energy, a "population inversion" of lies over truth. This type of situation usually resolves through a chain reaction, and it happens so fast it will take your breath away.

Watched that earlier today. The author seemed rather defensive and the interviewer very irritable.

Very well put. I’m a mechanical engineer and a bit of a thermodynamicist,so let me explain that societal energy is really information energy, sometimes known as negentropy or negative entropy. What is building is something called a free energy potential (not just simple energy). And yes, at some point the dam breaks.
