Barack Obama was much older than 8 when William Ayers was photographed stepping on a US flag in 2001, for an article in which Ayers said he had No Regrets for his violent actions in the Weather Underground.
In fact, at the same time Ayers was in a Chicago alley desecrating the flag, he and Barack Obama were serving on the board of the Woods Fund together: PolitiFact | Obama served on board with Ayers.
Deborah Harrington, president of the Woods Fund, a philanthropic organization in Chicago, said Obama was a director from 1994 through 2001. That overlaps Ayers time as a director by three years. It also means Obama served with Ayers for the final months of 2001, after Ayers made his comments to the New York Times.
In 1970, Bill Ayers summed up the Weatherman philosophy: "Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, kill your parents, that's where it's really at."
Charming individual that Barama calls friend!
Thanks and....Damn!
I think they hung it on Republicans and by default McCain. I think they were careful NOT to mention McCain specifically because they knew he had tried to introduce a bill in the Senate to reign in Fannie and Freddie and that would have left the liberals wide open.
Well, in any case it worked. McCain's numbers started dropping when it was McCain that tried to stop the Fannie/Freddie bleeding. We need to reverse that perception and show voters how Obama, ACORN and other RATS pressured Fannie/Freddie and banks to make these sub-prime loans.
Unfortunately, you're right. McCain's campaign seemed so on the ball recently but with this issue...they've dropped the damn ball!
Those are the pictures of that bastard that make me want to beat him to a bloody pulp.
Best is the "All of the above" hammer & tongs strategy.
The last four weeks of this election will be about whether the American people are willing to turn our economy and national security over to Barack Obama, a man with little record, questionable judgment, and ties to radical figures like unrepentant domestic terrorist William Ayers. Americans need to ask themselves if theyve ever befriended an unrepentant terrorist, or had a convicted felon help them buy their house because those arent smears, those are true facts about Barack Obama.

The real question now is what the American people will do...and with Sarah out there all over the country, that is becoming more and more clear with each passing day.
While I agree in theory, people right now care about the economy. Yes, Ayers is important but that’s not what’s going to get the sheeple’s attention. It’s ‘what affects me’ and the economy is it right now.
What you said in spades!!! This is McCain's ace and he better play it.
Hannity's relentless!
OBAMA & FRIENDS Hannity special on Fox now.
Obama funded Ayers.
Guy who infiltrated weather underground is on Hannity right NOW. Larry Grathwohl, former FBI informant (brave guy).
AYERS picked out two targets in DETROIT per infiltrator. Why did McCain leave Michigan?????
Hanniry is exposing Barack Obama big time tonight.
Rev. Wright ties to Sandunistas who advocated violent revolution. What a mess Barack Obama is. HOW DID HE GET THIS FAR????
A neighborhood any radical separatists would love.
I believe that is the tact McCain campaign is now taking and will carry through the next debate.
On Saturday, Palin slammed Obama for his connections to Ayers and Rezco(sp?) and I understand 527 group commercials have begun running in battle ground states.
All I can say is if a person votes for Obama knowing the types of people he befriends they are enemies of America and a stone throw away from those supporting Al Quada.
