This article/book is total crap! He’s afraid of a Sinclair eruption between now and November.
Who is the billayres this time?
From the New York Times, September 11, 2001:
"He [Bill Ayers] also writes about the Weathermen's sexual experimentation as they tried to 'smash monogamy.' The Weathermen were 'an army of lovers,' he says, and describes having had different sexual partners, including his best male friend."

Ayers: Obama was 'family friend'
New afterword to 2001 book, Ayers describes Barack Obama as 'family friend'

“Life feeds on itself”...wow....
Perhaps this is Bernadine’s latest contribution to this ongoing fraud.
Maraniss is a Dem shill from way back. and anti-war (VN) activist. His books include War and Peace (re Vietnam); First in His Class: A Biography of Bill Clinton; and Tell Newt To Shut Up. The Washington Post assigned him as biographer of Obama. This is a campaign ad to prove he is not Gay.
I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but I read a good portion of the Vanity Fair article and it just sounds fake. The girlfriend kept a diary that sounds like she’s writing a novel.
One thing true does come out of the article and I don’t know if the author or editors knew how incredibly telling this was. The girlfriend describes Obama as relentlessly calculating, particularly about constructing his own identity. On a superficial level, this tells us that nothing about him is based on core beliefs, but is a calculated decision about what he wants. On a more conspiratory level, this description, hand in hand with his own description that he was a loner, paints a vivid picture of someone who could truly be a Manchurian Candidate.
The secrecy of his records adds yet more texture to this theory. Someone living the way he and the girlfriend describe with such an intense penchant for secrecy fits in with someone who has controllers or handlers, people who are sponsoring his education and progress in life. If he leads an open, active social life, too many people get to see him and know him and the truth of the identity becomes harder and harder to hide.
Last, but not least, when he starts dating this white chick, his social circle (in the article) is like all Pakistanis with Islamic names. She describes how he was consciously pulling away from that group to develop a more American identity to achieve his goals. She also mentions that he abstained from alcohol and drugs (”mostly” or something like that).
Although the article is definitely a boot-kisser’s view, it actually sheds some pretty negative and suspicious light on O.
excerpt:
The hunt for Obama’s senior “thesis” began with a throwaway line in a newspaper article last October. The New York Times story, on Obama’s early New York years, mentioned in passing that the presidential contender had majored in political science at Columbia and had spent his time “writing his thesis on Soviet nuclear disarmament.”
Journalists began hounding Columbia University for copies of the musty document. Conservative bloggers began wondering if the young Obama had written a no-nukes screed that he might come to regret. And David Bossie, the former congressional investigator and “right-wing hit man,” as one newspaper described him, took out classified newspaper ads in Columbia University’s newspaper and the Chicago Tribune in March searching for the term paper.
Bossie came up dry, but said the effort was well worth it:
“A thesis entitled Soviet Nuclear Disarmament, written at the height of The Cold War in 1983, might shed some light upon what Barack Obama thought about our most pressing foreign policy issue for 40-plus years (U.S.-Soviet Relations),” he wrote in an e-mail to NBC News.

Here is the passage from the New York Times that the above article refers to:
"He barely mentions Columbia, training ground for the elite, where he transferred in his junior year, majoring in political science and international relations and writing his thesis on Soviet nuclear disarmament. He dismisses in one sentence his first community organizing job — work he went on to do in Chicago — though a former supervisor remembers him as 'a star performer.'"
[snip]
"he [Obama] declined repeated requests to talk about his New York years, release his Columbia transcript or identify even a single fellow student, co-worker, roommate or friend from those years.
'He doesn’t remember the names of a lot of people in his life,' said Ben LaBolt, a campaign spokesman."
Obama’s Account of New York Years Often Differs From What Others Say

From David Horowitz's FrontPageMag.com/DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
Profile: Institute For Policy Studies (IPS)
IPS’s [Institute For Policy Studies] Washington, DC headquarters quickly became a resource center for national reporters and a place for KGB agents from the nearby Soviet embassy to convene and strategize. Cora Weiss headed one of the IPS's most successful forays -- into Riverside Church in Manhattan. She was invited there in 1978 by the Reverend William Sloane Coffin to run the church's Disarmament Program, which sought to consolidate Soviet nuclear superiority in Europe -- in the name of "peace." In 1982 Weiss helped organize the largest pro-disarmament demonstration ever held. Staged in New York City, the rally was attended by a coalition of communist organizations. During her decade-long tenure at Riverside, which became home to the National Council of Churches, Weiss regularly received Russian KGB agents, Sandinista friends, and Cuban intelligence agents. Weiss became infamous for her role in the psychological warfare conducted against U.S. prisoners of war held in the infamous "Hanoi Hilton" during the Vietnam War.
The Liberation News Service, which is a news source for hundreds of "alternative" publications nationwide (with antiwar, Marxist-oriented perspectives), was founded in 1967 with IPS assistance."

Why Won’t Obama Talk About Columbia?
The years he won’t discuss may explain the Ayers tie he keeps lying about:

If you think that’s bad, don’t go to the “Paul Krugman to Obama” thread....
: )
Dr. John C. Drew, a grant writing consultant in Laguna Niguel, Calif., tells Newsmax he met Obama in 1980 when Obama was a sophomore at Occidental College in Los Angeles. Drew had just graduated from Occidental and was attending graduate school at Cornell University.
During Christmas break, Drew says he was at Grauman-Boss’ home in Palo Alto when Obama came over with Mohammed Hasan Chandoo, his roommate from Pakistan.
“Barack [Obama] and Hasan showed up at the house in a BMW, and then we went to a restaurant together,” Drew says. “We had a nice meal, and then we came back to the house and smoked cigarettes and drank and argued politics.”
For the next several hours, they discussed Marxism.
“He [Obama] was arguing a straightforward Marxist-Leninist class-struggle point of view, which anticipated that there would be a revolution of the working class, led by revolutionaries, who would overthrow the capitalist system and institute a new socialist government that would redistribute the wealth,” says Drew, who says he himself was then a Marxist.
“The idea was basically that wealthy people were exploiting others,” Drew says. “That this was the secret of their wealth, that they weren’t paying others enough for their work, and they were using and taking advantage of other people. He was convinced that a revolution would take place, and it would be a good thing.”
Drew concluded that Obama thought of himself as “part of an intelligent, radical vanguard that was leading the way towards this revolution and towards this new society.” ..."
Referring to Obama’s quote from “Dreams of My Father” that he associated with Marxist professors, Drew says, “What he’s not saying is that he was in 100 percent total agreement with those Marxist professors. When you understand that, Obama’s later associations and policies make more sense, including why he was taken in by Rev. Wright’s ideology.”
Something tells me that Obama’s “gay tape” is going to emerge soon.
This and Van Jones’ statement that blacks would vote Obama even if he way gay seems fishy.
Yes, terms like “bourgeois liberalism”, “dichotomy”, and “reactionary” just scream “love letter”, assuming the girl is a Bader-Meinhoff gang member.
So just how did Maraniss come by these materials? When? (Evidently after he published his prior book on O.). What condition or form were they in? Who exactly is Alex McNear? Does Maraniss have other material that he is not disclosing? What?
I wholeheartedly agree with you. This practice has had a huge detrimental impact on our society, and is sin. That being said, I was living with a woman in 1986 during one of the most trying times of my life. During that time, she recommitted to the Lord, and I accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior. We repented and remained celibate until we married in September of 1987.We have been very happily married and faithful to each other and to God since then. As believers, we must never tolerate sin, but we must always speak in love. Condemnation without love only turns people away from Christ. We can voice our disapproval, but show them the better way, as Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 13. Unbelievers need to understand that they are sinners, that God hates sin, but that Jesus was nailed to the Cross in our place, so that we can experience forgiveness and newness of life!
Also, Christians can never expect unbelievers to live holy lives, because they are in spiritual darkness. Our job is to bring them into the Light of Christ! But I appreciate your zeal, Uncle Slayton!
“He was trying to find his place in the whirl of humanity, while at the same time refining the literary riffs that filled up page after page of his journals.”
Does Maraniss claim to possess these “journals”? First I have ever heard of them.
