Obama claims he hardly knows William Ayers and didn’t meet him till late 1995.

We know this is a lie, the Chicago Annenberg Challenge papers prove that.

But did you know this?

Are you aware that while Obama was completing his degree at Columbia in 1982-83, Bill Ayers was attending Bank Street College from which he graduated with a Masters in Early Childhood Education in 1984?

Bank Street College is 371 yards from Columbia, and they collaborate on courses.

We know, from his own writings, that Obama “was drawn to foreign students, Marxist professors, and punk poets”. One such professor was Edward Said, who was also an associate of Bill Ayers.

It is inconceivable, given their concentric politics, and Ayers’ penchant for recruiting black radicals, that they did not meet in the two years they were studying within a quarter mile of each other. Bill Ayers was no doubt something of a celebrity in the radical community having been a terrorist that had beaten the rap. Obama would surely want to meet such a famous radical.

Is this why Obama won’t release his transcript from Columbia? Does it reveal a tie to Ayers? Were they classmates? Did they perhaps even live together or close to each other?

He did not say he ever supported Obama, he said “Though never a supporter of Obama, I admired him for a time for his ability to engage our imaginations, and especially for his ability to inspire the young once again to embrace the political system.”...that is a far cry from supporting him.

In these most troubling times for our economy it is beyond reckless to ask Americans to support a trillion dollar change agenda. Save it for times when America is at peace and prosperity Obama you are as Radical, Reckless and Irresponsible as your Chicago associates, Ayers, Rezko and Wright. Obama, Not ready to lead.

And this is from 4/30/08......ping

The Democrat party is comprised of a number of factions: The Black Caucus;the Environmentalists; the Unions; the Literati and Hollywood; the Welfare recipients; Code Pink; the Fannie Maes and Freddy Macs and the homegrown grownup hippies who once gave us 'Peace, Love. Dope' along with civil disobedience, trespass and terrorism.

In 1787, in Philadelphia, a woman approached Ben Franklin asking, "Mr. Franklin, what sort of government do we have?"
"A Republic, Madam, if you can keep it!" replied Franklin.

“The notion that somehow as a consequence of me knowing somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago, when I was eight years old, somehow reflects on me and my values, dozen’t make much sense, George.”

Why does he always take about 50 words to say anything, no it doesn’t make sense because its all gobldey gook words.

Nobody is talking about 8 years old, Ayers told the New York Times in September 2001, regarding bombing and murdering at the pentagon “I don’t regret setting bombs...I feel we didn’t do enough.”

Obama was 40 years old,

Barack Obama and the unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers have worked closely together on education reform since 1995, and possibly since 1987 on the Annenberg Challenge.

1995 Ayers hosted a fund-raiser for Obama prior to Obama’s run for Alice Palmer’s seat in the state Senate; they both served on the board of the charitable Woods Fund of Chicago from 1999 to 2002; and Ayers donated $200 to Obama’s state Senate campaign. Other researchers and reporters (for example, Lynn Sweet of the Chicago Sun Times) noted a few joint panel appearances and a favorable review by Obama of a book by Bill Ayers.

But even this was more than Obama was willing to admit. Asked point blank by George Stephanopoulos in the Philadelphia debate preceding the Pennsylvania primary to “explain that relationship for the voters,” Obama prevaricated by pretending he scarcely knew Ayers:

This is a guy who lives in my neighborhood, who’s a professor of English in Chicago, who I know and who I have not received some official endorsement from. He’s not somebody who I exchange ideas from on a regular basis.

To understand the mindset of Obama, one needs to examine the years he was most influenced. These were the formative years when Obama was six and his mother married Lolo Soetoro Mangunharjo, a Muslim, in 1967. It was then that Obama’s mother took “Barry” to live in Jakarta, Indonesia. Barry lived there for five years and was greatly influenced by his new father and the Indonesian culture.

His step father ruled the family with the chauvinistic methods of his Indonesian Muslim culture. His mother, a anthropologist who hated America, was willing to submit herself to this culture. The dynamics of Obama’s early life play a major part in why he is attracted to Marxists and terrorists.

Obama saw a step father who was highly controlling and ruled his family with strictly defined roles for the mother. Rules are unchangeable and the father, as the leader of the household, rules with authoritarian measures to maintain the Islamic ideal of harmony. Under this value system, there is no room for dissent or conflict. It is a wonder that Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann, was able to adapt to this culture.

In 1972, Stanley Ann took Barry back to Hawaii to live with her parents. Barry was ten at that time. Her parents lived in a modest two-bedroom Honolulu apartment which was an effort to save money for Obama’s tuition to attend the Punahou Academy, an elite private school. Obama's mother returned to Indonesia to live with Lolo and his stepsister, Maya Soetoro-Ng.

It was in Hawaii that Barry's formative years would be further influenced by the grandmother who would care for him and provide for his education, Madelyn Dunham. Not much is known about Madelyn Dunham who has been kept hidden by the Obama team from public contact.

In 1980 Stanley Ann divorced Lolo.

Interesting-and chilling-article about the kind of people Barack Hussein Obama looks up to and admires. Sadly, I’ve heard people in places like Ithaca defend Ayers as nothing more than a college prankster.

I know quite a few people who “don’t support Obama”, but are going to vote for him anyway. Said people often consider their left wing views to be the “moderate” “middle of the road” point of view.

Hell I know lots of liberatarians who despite their calls for less government support Obama - a man promising to nationalize everything.
