I would love to punch this idiot right in the mouth.

I can wait until after Ayers has been thrown under Obama's bus. I'd say the over/under on that is this coming Wednesday.

In order to fully discredit BHO we need to start looking at the linkages between Ayers and the other sick, Anti America bastards out there. Obama will be by default, 1 degree removed, from these sick S.O.B’s.

Anyone have a copy of Barack Obama’s condemnations of Ward Churchill? Did Obama agree with this guy too? Ya know, the 911 victims were Little Eichmann’s?

A good reminder to those who wern’t around in the 60s as I was.

Interesting that the threads that expose Obama and his Marxist friends are absent the serial McCain bashers who find 83% life ACU rating McCain a larger threat than Marxist Obama

Hiding in a cave just like bin laden. To bad he is not in the cross-hairs. Crap like this deserves to be ground into powder.

Where are the regular, normal Americans that are Barry’s friends?

Right where they have been all along...you see to them, how they view our country is the way “normal” America should be...they don’t live in the same America you and I do...it’s very disturbing.

EVERYONE should take the time to read the FBI files on Hussein’s Chicago mentors, Weather Underground, Venceremos Brigade, Communist Party, and the PLO.

Seriously, Ayers’s fingerprints were even found in the “bomb factory” apartment.

But there is so much more, this groups’ Cuban, ME, and Soviet connections are stunning

He received death threats after that.

He writes that he participated in the bombings of New York City Police Headquarters in 1970, of the Capitol building in 1971, the Pentagon in 1972.

What's he doing out of jail? As execrable as this gentleman was and is, it is further a poor reflection on the society that tolerates him. The news reports were quick to point out these were "non fatal" bombings. I'm no lawyer, but that's not how the law operates.

It’s worse than you know, a lot of these clowns or derivations thereof are comfortably ensconsed at numerous universities and other positions where they can effect “change” and inculcate their insanity on your children. “You can’t make this stuff up.”

God knows that these terrorist ‘academics’ Dohrn and
Ayers are fomenting in student minds today to be unleashed
on this country in the future.

Obama worked with terrorist
Senator helped fund organization that rejects ‘racist’ Israel’s existence

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?pageId=57231

Excerpt:

JERUSALEM – The board of a nonprofit organization on which Sen. Barack Obama served as a paid director alongside a confessed domestic terrorist (AYERS) granted funding to a controversial Arab group that mourns the establishment of Israel as a “catastrophe” and supports intense immigration reform, including providing drivers licenses and education to illegal aliens.

The co-founder of the Arab group in question, Columbia University professor Rashid Khalidi, also has held a fundraiser for Obama. Khalidi is a harsh critic of Israel, has made statements supportive of Palestinian terror and reportedly has worked on behalf of the Palestine Liberation Organization while it was involved in anti-Western terrorism and was labeled by the State Department as a terror group.

In 2001, the Woods Fund, a Chicago-based nonprofit that describes itself as a group helping the disadvantaged, provided a $40,000 grant to the Arab American Action Network, or AAAN, for which Khalidi’s wife, Mona, serves as president. The Fund provided a second grant to the AAAN for $35,000 in 2002.

*snip*

The $40,000 grant from Obama’s Woods Fund to the AAAN constituted about a fifth of the Arab group’s reported grants for 2001, according to tax filings obtained by WND. The $35,000 Woods Fund grant in 2002 also constituted about one-fifth of AAAN’s reported grants for that year.

No doubt in my mind, that Ayers is helping
to promote and provide funding to the
enemies of America and Israel.

He loathes America, the country that blesses
him with the freedom to spew the filth he
does, and all freedom-loving nations.

Foundation ‘Under Siege’ After Obama-Clinton Debate

The Woods Fund of Chicago has been thrust into the middle of the latest controversy in the heated Democratic primary battle between Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. Hillary Clinton.

As a result, the staff at the private foundation is now attempting to handle a swarm of attention from journalists, which is centered on a longtime Woods Fund board member and his relationship with Mr. Obama, who had been a member of the Fund’s board from 1998 to 2001.

The controversy stems from an exchange during Wednesday’s nationally televised debate in Philadelphia, where Mr. Obama was questioned about his relationship with William C. Ayers, a Woods Fund board member who had been part of the Vietnam-era Weather Underground.

The Weather Underground used terroristic methods, such as setting bombs, to protest the war. Mr. Ayers had later written that he did not regret setting the bombs.

During Wednesday’s debate, Mr. Obama was questioned about his ties to Mr. Ayers through the Woods Fund — a private foundation with more than $58-million in assets that works to alleviate poverty.

According to the Woods Fund’s filings with the Internal Revenue Service, Mr. Ayers, now a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago, has been a member of the Woods Fund’s board of directors since at least 1998. He has received $6,000 annually for his work on the board.

Mr. Obama, meanwhile, had been a board member from 1998 through 2001.

The foundation’s Form 990-PF tax filings show Mr. Obama received similar $6,000 payments in 1998, 1999, and 2000. He did not receive any compensation in 2001, the tax records show.

George Stephanopoulos, one of the ABC News moderators of the debate, asked Mr. Obama about his relationship with Mr. Ayers.

“An early organizing meeting for your state senate campaign was held at his house, and your campaign has said you are friendly,” Mr. Stephanopoulos said. “Can you explain that relationship for the voters, and explain to Democrats why it won’t be a problem?”

Ms. Clinton then brought up the fact that both men had been members of the Woods Fund board — a connection Mr. Obama said is not relevant to his White House aspirations.

“President Clinton pardoned or commuted the sentences of two members of the Weather Underground, which I think is a slightly more significant act than me serving on a board with somebody for actions that he did 40 years ago,” Mr. Obama said.

The exchange prompted a flood of calls today to the Woods Fund’s office, said a spokeswoman, who explained that the calls were coming at a particularly bad time for the organization.

Its president, Deborah Harrington, is sick and has been unable to reply to the flurry of inquiries.

“We are under siege,” the spokeswoman said.

She said she could not comment on the relationship between Mr. Ayers and Mr. Obama.

Mr. Ayers, for his part, did not return a phone call left this morning at his office.

And note #37 above.
