How do you figure?

As I already said: I know quite a few people who “never really supported Obama” but are going to vote for him anyway because they “just don’t like the other guy.”

I’m not sure if I would call it a backfire, but if the Fox News Sunday show is any indication, it fell flat on its face.

The sound bite of Palin calling O’bama’s character into question for ‘palling around with terrorists’ was greeted with the sneer of “Has McCain’s campaign turned ugly?” meme and dismissed as the ‘last desperate act of a losing campaign’.

IMO the linkage to Ayers should have been given high focus just as soon as the McCain camp found out. It would have established it in undeniable terms and given the issue the legitimacy it deserves.

Now it is too little too late.

Right thinking people are repelled by terrorists like Ayers and disgusted by any who would blithely associate with them. But the revelation of O’bamas peculiar and disturbing friendships isn’t catching fire. It’s not that no one cares - only that people on the left have decided to ignore it.

Consequently it isn’t gaining traction because those who might be offended already are, and the rest don’t care, no matter how many times you shove it in their faces.

Disagree.

There had to have been 1000’s of people who attended Gov Palin’s rally yesterday who had never heard of Obama’s ties to an unrepentant domestic terrorist from Chicago.

Gov Palin’s word are true and easy to understand. The more Obama’s long history of radical ties to Chicago's unrepentant domestic terrorist William ‘we didn't do enough’ Ayres is discussed, the better. This is not going away. Undecided voters will learn of Obama’s shady past this week and Obama’s team is helping get the message out. :-) Count on it.

Listen to her words again, very powerful. Gov Palin has a duty to inform the electorate.

Thanks - I think this is a very important read. I've sent this one and Beware Charismatic Men Who Preach 'Change' to my address book. I think the more people pass this stuff along, the more eyes we'll open. Especially, since the MSM won't do their job of telling the truth about obmaman.

Why did you cut of the biographical note? This is useful information:

John M. Murtagh is a practicing attorney, an adjunct professor of public policy at the Fordham University College of Liberal Studies, and a member of the city council in Yonkers, New York, where he resides with his wife and two sons.

This is powerful stuff. Do you want to trust these men with nuclear weapons and command of the US military?

I don't think so.

Why is Ayers still breathing our air?

Why is Bernadine Dohrn allowed to practice law? Does the ABA have no standards of professional conduct? Don't answer that.

“We didn’t leave our burning house for fear of who might be waiting outside.”

Chills.

BUMP! I loathe these b@stards. I finally understand how the Looney Lefties “feel.” I understand their hatred, though it’s totally misplaced, of course.

Actually, she doesn’t have a license, just the J.D. I have read that the Illinois Bar would not allow her to sit for the Bar Exam until she renounced her past acts...which she did not.

She teaches at Northwestern because Bill Ayers father, Tom Ayers, got her a position there...he was a Trustee at the University until he died.

Link sent to Drudge.

This information needs to be disseminated to the masses via all available means. The MSM obviously isn’t up to the task - after all, doing so would get in their way of being “objective” - so we have to do their jobs for them.
