Ayers Admits He and Obama Were Friends and that He Started Obama's Campaign

William Ayers has written a new afterword to his old book. He reveals that he and Obama were family friends. He also reveals some of his involvement in Obama's early political career. In summary, he proves what we already knew. Obama is a liar.

In a new afterword to his memoir, 1960s radical William Ayers writes that the campaign controversy over their relationship was an effort by Obama's political enemies to "deepen a dishonest narrative" about the candidate.

“We had served together on the board of a foundation, knew one another as neighbors and family friends, held an initial fund-raiser at my house, where I’d made a small donation to his earliest political campaign,” he writes.

You may remember how Obama described their relationship:

Obama said Ayers is "a guy who lives in my neighborhood" and not someone who has endorsed him or talked to him regularly.

"And the notion that somehow as a consequence of me knowing somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago when I was 8 years old, somehow reflects on me and my values, doesn't make much sense," Obama said.

Obama says he was just a guy in the neighborhood and did not endorse him. Ayers says they were friends and that he held fund-raisers in his house for Obama. One of them is lying. Who do you think the liar is?

So, the creepy little coward makes his announcement after the election? Trust fund babies are sooooooo predictable.

Then again, maybe Obama is telling the truth - and Ayers is NOTHING to him.

On that notion that Ayers actually wrote Dreams of My Father, here are a couple of posts I made on that. You probably already knew this stuff, but it may be new to some

BOTH of them, for the relationship is even deeper. Think about the ghostwriting controversy for starters.

...”guess you did not learn from the first one.”

I have to disagree. Liberals know exactly what they are doing. The United States must atone for it’s global sins, and you are seeing the beginning of a total rebuild of this country. Welcome to France.

That could be, but it doesn’t explain the lady who said she was at that fundraiser in Ayers’ house.

There are very few available Conservatives who will take up the mantle of truth. So, they really really won’t.

The fix is in.

Short of finding out he’s a child molestor, I don’t think there is anything that can taint Obama. Well, maybe if they get a picture of him smoking again.

I think it will be proven that Ayers wrote Dreams. The science of authorship is making huge advances. To me, it’s already a 99.99 certainty. Jack Cashill has done terrific work here.

If they were to find that out the media would report is as "what deep and caring interaction he has with the young people."

Of course, the Fight The Smears website will be updated lickety split.

Obama is lowering expectations faster than an elevator. Grey Davis did this trick with the California voters and it cost him a recall when he lied about the $20B deficit (which actually turned out to be $38B). Maybe we can get the same kind of outrage out of Obama supporters if he keeps this up.

"Somebody has to ask Barry Odinko if Ayers helped write his first bio. It’ll be interesting to see if he risks a lie that will be disproven in the near future."

Interesting but inconsequential.

Immunity has been granted O.J. Simpson, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Barry Soetero-Dunham, and Bubba Kintoon for their respective past.

Until we find that video of Osama Hussein-Stalin killing puppies and pulling the wings off of butterfly, he's as fervently beloved and worshiped as was as Hitler, 1936.

I’d just love to get the lie on the record.

My point was that maybe Ayers thinks he's a bigger deal in Obama's life than he is... Ayers is yesterday ( or more - more like 40 years ago ). Ayers is a has-been.

Obama was a raising star - maybe he did see Ayers as a nobody - just an old guy in the neighborhood...

In summary, he proves what we already knew. Obama is a liar.

As well being a friend and associate of terrorists.

Imagine if Sarah Palin had been revealed to have gotten her political start in the home of Tim McVey.

It’s 1992 all over again.

It's much worse than '92. Even Billy Jeff had some history, and real experience, as governor and attorney general of Arkansas.

Before 2006, The One, was known mainly for voting present. A guy doesn't go from there to President Elect without some powerful "friends", backers or manipulators. Who are his? Why don't we know?

Transparency my dear Aunt Sally.

From the third presidential debate:

MCCAIN: Well, again, while you were on the board of the Woods Foundation, you and Mr. Ayers, together, you sent $230,000 to ACORN. So -- and you launched your political campaign in Mr. Ayers' living room.

OBAMA: That's absolutely not true.

Whom to believe, Ayers or Obama??

Someone tell Kirsten Powers on Fox about this latest revelation. She acts like Obama had a little “meet and greet” in Ayers’ living room. She also called Palin on using the word “terrorists,” as though she’s not figuring that Bernadine was actually worse than Bill.
