What do Osama bin Laden and Barack Obama have in common?
They both have a friend that bombed the Pentagon.
Wow,will watch later.Here’s a bump.
This one’s a keeper.
Wasn’t the documents showing Obama and Ayers relationship supposed to be released today?
I read that here a few days ago?
Interesting that he agreed to do this program in January 2006. He must have thought that he and his Leftist associates would be successful in undermining our military and bringing about U.S. defeat in Iraq; as they did in Vietnam.
Ayers says he doesn’t regret what he did, and the FBI agent discusses the Weather Underground halfway through
Bill Ayers: A communist wrapped in tissue of lies.
News on Fox 2:09 re: Annenburg papers and how they show connection between Obama and Ayers. First time I’ve seen anything on MSM.
Yippee
Underground(1976)

Seized by the FBI as evidence at the time it was made in 1974, Emile de Antonio's tense documentary features clandestinely filmed interviews of the then-fugitive members of the notorious Weather Underground. Radicals Billy Ayers, Kathy Boudin, Jeff Jones, Cathy Wilkerson and Bernadine Dohrn sound off on their reasons for going underground and reflect on the trials of the fugitive lifestyle.
The Weather Underground(2002)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0343168/
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/The_Weather_Underground/60029983
A sobering documentary about a group of 1960s “committed freedom fighters” known as The Weather Underground. A radical offshoot of the Students for a Democratic Society, the Weathermen didn't just march or sit in; they rioted and bombed — not to change the American political scene but rather to destroy it. The organization was part of a global trend of revolution that sprang from the belief that not acting against violence is violence.
If some future presidential contender worked with Eric Rudolph, his career would be toast as soon as it became public.
The Weathermen were initially part of the Revolutionary Youth Movement (RYM) within the SDS, splitting from the RYM's Maoists by claiming there was no time to build a vanguard party and that revolutionary war against the United States government and the capitalist system should begin immediately. Their founding document called for the establishment of a "white fighting force" to be allied with the "Black Liberation Movement" and other "anti-colonial" movements[1] to achieve "the destruction of US imperialism and the achievement of a classless world: world communism."
The group's first public demonstration:

The Days of Rage riots in Chicago took place over a 4-day period beginning October 8, 1969, after members of the Weathermen, a militant offshoot of the Students for a Democratic Society, converged on the city to confront police in the streets in response to the trial of the group of anti-Vietnam War activists known as the "Chicago Eight".
Also good to read up on this:

Criticism of the legacy
As many of those who supported the New Left in the 1960s are now in charge of the kinds of institutions they once opposed, conservative opponents argue that their assumptions - which are sometimes described as politically correct multiculturalism - are now the establishment orthodoxy. In what has been described as the culture wars, conservative critics of this orthodoxy such as Allan Bloom and Roger Scruton assert that New Left radical egalitarianism is motivated by anti-Western nihilism.
It is shameless that the media supressed all discussion of this during the primary “vetting” and focused on things like Mitt Romney is a “Mormon” (gasp). Harry Reid’s mormonism is not a factor in media coverage of Congress.
Thanks-bookmarked for later.
