Newly Released Documents Highlight Obama’s Relationship With Ayers

Documents released Tuesday by the University of Illinois at Chicago shed some light on Barack Obamas relationship with William Ayers, a founding member of the 1960s and 1970s radical group the Weather Underground.
Obamas association with Ayers, who now teaches at the university, has become an issue in the Illinois senators presidential campaign. The Weather Underground took credit for several nonfatal bombings on targets that included the Pentagon and the U.S. Capitol, and critics accuse Obama of rubbing elbows with an unabashed 1960s radical.
Obama has said that, although he knew Ayers as a professor involved in community outreach efforts in Chicago, he doesnt share Ayers extreme views.
The massive collection of newly released documents 140 boxes full of them includes agendas that clearly put Obama and Ayers in the same room for meetings of Chicago Annenberg Challenge, an educational initiative that Ayers was instrumental in starting and that Obama chaired in the 1990s.

they also sat on the WOODS foundation, and gave Money to Ayer’s Wife, Fellow Weatherman Dorn.
the web of corruption is twisted.
also Ayers started other radical grou[ps that DID kill Police officers.
Ayers Has innocent Blood on his hands, and Obama is a Loyal Friend to this Traitor.

Obama has said that, although he knew Ayers as a professor involved in community outreach efforts in Chicago, he doesnt share Ayers extreme views.The key question is:
"Why is the educational hiearchy of Chicago, Illinois, and national educational organizations comfortable with a person like Ayers and his, as Obama put it, 'extreme views'?
In having to shoot down any relationship that may have existed (plus all the ties we already know), Obama has highlighted the guilt of the very educational hiearchy Ayers is an HONORED part of. Not to mention his squeeze and former Weatherman terrorist, Bernadine.

Does this mean he can now openly admit other admirations for even less gentle men of somewhat greater antiquity?

Please see the *bottom* portion of my FR Profile/Home page for some incredible details regarding the Weather Underground-Black Liberation Army-related Brinks truck robbery and triple murder mentioned in the new anti-Obama.
Look for the large heading:
"About the Weather Underground-related police killing mentioned in the new anti-Obama video" (see bottom portion of page)

Well..... The good news is we no longer have to be offended when Obama claims he is being “Swiftboated”, he is actually using the term correctly.
