Nice timeline here:

...seems like a timeline would be an effective way to outline/organize all of the links and stories to Obama’s really scary past.
1981-1983[William Ayers and Barack Obama meet at Columbia?]
1987 William Ayers links up with Barack Obama in Chicago
1988 Ayers solicits Khalid Al-Mansour to raise money for Obama’s Harvard law School education
1989 Tom Ayers and William Ayers get Obama a summer job at Sidley & Austin (where he meets Michelle Obama); Ayers’ wife Bernadine Dohrn also worked at Sidley at about the same time as Barack and Michelle.
1993 Ayers places Obama on Woods Foundation
1995 Ayers makes Obama Chairman of Annenberg Challenge
1995 Ayers hosts a coffee klatch for Obama’s political debut (Obama falsely claims this is when he met Ayers)
2007-2008 The structure of Obama’s presidential campaign increasingly comes to resemble an Ayers-designed national “community organizer matrix” straight out of Maoist theory. This is not merely a presidential “campaign.” Obama’s organization is the first installment of an ongoing movement being paid for with tax-exempt contributions to his campaign, approaching half a billion dollars.
2008 Obama In response to ABC News, Obama tells a national TV audience he was “six years old” when Ayers bombed federal buildings, and they are only casual neighborhood acquaintances. A lie.
Okay .. I guess there is an earlier question. Why did Obama switch from Occidental to Columbia?
And I guess, out of curiosity, why did Obama mention his mom last night, because it was all about him? Why was his mom negotiating with drug companies about pre-existing coverage, just months begfore her death in 1995? Wouldn't she have carried her "career" insurance plan for many years by then? That's strange.
And where was Stanley Ann in 1980-82? Her bio shows only a divorce from the Indonesian Dad in 1980. And that might have just been legal clock running down on a filing years earlier.
