Weathermen ghosts continue to haunt Obama campaign (Obama and Terrorist connected at the hips)
DailyIllini.com ^ | 9/5/2008 | Dan Streib

Accusations of a connection between Barack Obama and ex-Weatherman Bill Ayers have recently been gathering steam in conservative journals thanks to Weekly Standard and National Review contributor Stanley Kurtz.

For the uninitiated, the Weather Underground was a domestic terrorist group that grew out of the New Left in the '60s and '70s. The group sought to transform America into a communist nation. Obviously, Obama does not seek such a transformation, but relationships with people like Ayers do raise other questions.

More to the point is that Mr. Kurtz, along with many other journalists and lawyers, is investigating files that were recently released by the University of Illinois at Chicago that could have information regarding the relationship between Ayers and the Democratic nominee. As of yet, nothing has been found, but this does not mean that new evidence of a serious connection won't come up in the near future.

Connections between to Barack Obama, Bernardine Dohrn, William Ayers are easy to find. (media doesn’t investigate anything unless it is Governor Palin’s beautiful family)

http://www.uic.edu/classes/las/las400/conferencealt.htm

this link is interesting...In 2002 all three where speakers at the same conference, and the number of speakers at the conference was relatively small.

“The group sought to transform America into a communist nation. Obviously, Obama does not seek such a transformation, but relationships with people like Ayers do raise other questions.”

He doesn’t seek such transformation? I remain unconvinced with that comment. Nothing he has said or done has changed my mind otherwise.

I highly recommend the documentary made a couple of years ago about the weather underground. It ties together all the information tidbits about the group and left me with a very grim view of BHO. Ayers and Dorn cooperated with the doc, but it is not pro-weatherman.

That's not so obvious to me.

That's the new trick of the MSM. Claim that they just can't quite find that solid connections even though it's all around them.

Gee, you think? With Code Pink protesters interrupting the GOP convention inside the hall? With other protesters plotting to kidnap GOP delegates? With a refusal to denounce a man who bombed the Pentagon?

I took the time to post a congrats to the writer and we need to get some attention. Great that it was a College publication.

Bravo to you! As a writer in a college newspaper it took guts to address a shred of knowledge that the Main Street Media is trying to cover up. Does it really matter that Obama was on board with the Unrepentant Bill Ayers? yes it does as this is just one of many associations that we somehow can't get the real information from the Obama handlers or Obama himself. Sadly Obama claims to be very transparant in his dealings when the real fact is you can't seem to find the truth. Well if he wants my vote then he needs to start telling the truth on his past associations and his real history. Who is Barack Obama? There is still the issue of his birth certificate that is not resolved. There is a attorney in PA who has filed a civil suit* in Federal Court asking Obama to prove he is legally a US citizen. Is this a crazy man or is there some truth. I don't know but again It needs to be addressed by the candidate running for office or I won't vote for him. *www.obamacrimes.com is the site of the alledged lawsuit.

Coincidentally, I just created a design for this theme in my cafepress shop. I presume it would be bad form for me to put a link to it here, but if anyone wants to check it out, just let me know. Maybe I can add it to my profile. Anyway, the gist of the design is:

Obama

He’s just too RAW (Rezko-Ayers-Wright) for the job.

The group sought to transform America into a communist nation.

The remnants of the group still want to transform America into a Communist nation. Hussein Obama is the vehicle they chose to help them get there. There is nothing good about Hussein Obama. He is the epitome of evil.

This is a copy of a posting I posted last week regarding this issue:

Interestingly enough, I am currently reading "The Strong Man", John Mitchell and the secrets of Watergate, and Ayers is mentioned in the book at a time when Mitchell was early in his time as AG. Nixon and Mitchell intensified its investigation and infiltration of militant left-wing groups. According to a revolutionary group in Boston, Mitchell and the rest are out to destroy youth culture. "Mitchell was a symbol"' said Ayres, a member with his wife, Bernardine Dohrn, of the infamous Weathermen. A Marxist offshoot of SDS(Students for a Democratic Society), the Weathermen took their name from a line in Bob Dylan's 1965 alienated-youth anthem "Subterranean Homesick Blues": "You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows." They later changed the name as it is now known as the Weather Underground. This movement has been in existence since the sixties and is the case with many communist sympathizers of that era, still exist and hold the views of that era still today. This association is truly a passing of the torch from Ayers to the next generation to continue the movement.

This needs to be out everywhere in the media as all the scrutinizing and lies were out in seconds over Governor Sarah Palin. Let Obama answer to this. He has not satisfactorily explained to the voters of America who will be choosing their leader in November.

Why is this obvious? I have a close colleague, the only other conservative in my department besides folks who grew up under Communism who followed David Horowitz's track from the '60's "New Left" (in Chicago's Hyde Park no less) to conservatism, who said of Obama, simply "He's a Communist. I know, I used to be one."

I was reading an article, or rather trying to read an article, called, Obama, the postmodern Manchurian candidate. The blurb on Google said that it drew a connection between the fact that Obama’s mother worked for the Ford Foundation and that Obama worked for Gamaliel, and did Ayres get the job at Gamaliel for Obama. The article disappeared as I was trying to read it, just gone.

That's the new trick of the MSM. Claim that they just can't quite find that solid connections even though it's all around them.

The main stream media is the antithesis, the exact opposite, of the heroic Lois Lane type investigative reporter. The main stream media is un-truth, un-justice and un-the American way. The main stream media is blind, biased, and intellectually lazy. All they do is regurgitate DNC talking points-- they have zero independent thought and ability to think and investigate for themselves.

Connections between to Barack Obama, Bernardine Dohrn, William Ayers are easy to find. (media doesn't investigate anything unless it is Governor Palin’s beautiful family)

http://www.uic.edu/classes/las/las400/conferencealt.htm

In 2002 all three, Bernardine Dohrn, and William Ayers and Barack Obama, at the same conference, and the number of speakers at the conference was relatively small.

There are dozens of people to interview that went to this conference and dozens of obvious questions to ask given known history of Bernardine Dohrn, and William Ayers. Will they do it, no. They are not serving their shareholders, their country, or journalistic integrity, they are servants of the DNC and trapped in chains by their philosophies of life which isn't interested in the truth.

I don’t think the college republicans putting out his in the school paper is very steady legs. But we’ll take what we get for the moment.
