William Ayers is an unrepentant TERRORIST
Barack Obama is an unrepentant TERRORIST SYMPATHISER

[shoptalk]

Q: What do Obama and Osama have in common?

A: They both have friends who bombed the Pentagon.

[TNCMAXQ]

This sounds like a good TV ad in the making. I hope they go with it.

[13Sisters76]

Ayers belongs in prison, both for his own acts and the acts of his followers, who killed two policemen before they blew their own stupid heads off.

There is no statute of limitations on murder. Or is it ok to kill cops?

[Doug TX]

There is a BIG point overlooked with this bombing. It occured on Feb 21, 1970. Does that date mean anything to you..............

Feb 21, 1965 was the day Malcolm X was assassinated. Coincidence?...I think not.

Here is the guy being interviewed by Greta:

I watched the View this morning and the women on there where shouting Elizabeth down when she tried to bring up Ayers and obamas connection. In doing so, the women on the View were standing up for William Ayers.

I wrote the show and told them I was shocked to see the Ladies of the View standing up for a terrorist! I told them that the only difference between William Ayers and Timothy McVeigh was that McVeigh killed over 600 people and the Ladies of the view were standing up for a terrorist!!

I don’t think the “Ladies” of the View will like me very much : )

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.

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.

THEN YOU HAVEN'T LEARNED MUCH MR. LIBERAL.

Yet his myopia in the last few months has cast a new light on his “politics of change.” Nobody should hold the junior senator from Illinois responsible for his friends’ and supporters’ violent terrorist acts. But it is fair to hold him responsible for a startling lack of judgment in his choice of mentors, associates, and friends, and for showing a callous disregard for the lives they damaged and the hatred they have demonstrated for this country. It is fair, too, to ask what those choices say about Obama’s own beliefs, his philosophy, and the direction he would take our nation.

At the conclusion of his 2001 Times interview, Ayers said of his upbringing and subsequent radicalization: “I was a child of privilege and I woke up to a world on fire.”

Funny thing, Bill: one night, so did I.

I would have expected much harsher words than this, but you can tell this life-long liberal author just wants to get BO to **understand** his plight. Why isn't he all over the place talking this up? Because his liberal cause is the end that justifies the means.

The Weatherman held up an armored car and executed the driver and also executed two on duty police officers. Leaving behind I think five children in all.

I think Ayers wife qas part ot the robbery team.

Fire in the Night
The Weathermen tried to kill my family
John M. Murtagh, April 30, 2008

"In February 1970, my father, a New York State Supreme Court justice, was presiding over the trial of the so-called 'Panther 21,' members of the Black Panther Party indicted in a plot to bomb New York landmarks and department stores. Early on the morning of February 21, as my family slept, three gasoline-filled firebombs exploded at our home on the northern tip of Manhattan, two at the front door and the third tucked neatly under the gas tank of the family car."

"The same night, bombs were thrown at a police car in Manhattan and two military recruiting stations in Brooklyn. Sunlight, the next morning, revealed three sentences of blood-red graffiti on our sidewalk: FREE THE PANTHER 21; THE VIET CONG HAVE WON; KILL THE PIGS."

From David Horowitz's FrontPageMag.com/DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
March 6, 1970: "three members of the Weather Underground accidentally killed themselves in a Manhattan townhouse while attempting to build a powerful bomb they had intended to plant at a social dance in Fort Dix, New Jersey -- an event that was to be attended by U.S. Army soldiers. Hundreds of lives could have been lost had the plot been successfully executed."

Bill Ayers TODAY (April 6, 2008), from his own red communist star-headed website, begging to debate communism vs capitalism with Sean Hannity and STILL calling for revolution!

"Imperialism. I’m against it, and if Sean Hannity and others were honest, this is the ground they would fight me on. Capitalism played its role historically and is exhausted as a force for progress: built on exploitation, theft, conquest, war, and racism, capitalism and imperialism must be defeated and a world revolution—a revolution against war and racism and materialism, a revolution based on human solidarity and love, cooperation and the common good —must win.

We begin by releasing our most hopeful dreams and our most radical imaginations: a better world is both possible and necessary.

From the New York Times, August 24, 2003

"they [the Weather Underground] employed revolutionary jargon, advocated armed struggle and black liberation and began bombing buildings, taking responsibility for at least 20 attacks. Estimates of their number ranged at times from several dozen to several hundred."

From David Horowitz's FrontPageMag.com/DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
"FBI files from 1976, recently made public under the Freedom of Information Act, confirm the connections between Weatherman, Havana, and Moscow. Weatherman leaders like Mark Rudd traveled illegally to Havana in 1968 to engage in terrorist training. There, camps set up by Soviet KGB Colonel Vadim Kotchergine were educating Westerners both in Marxist philosophy and urban warfare."

It would seem to me that Murtagh has grounds for a lawsuit: why wouldn’t he do that?

Getting the information out into public view would do a lot to damage the left in this country, as so many liberals admire the deeds and beliefs of William Ayers and the Weather Underground.

If Murtah's saboteur hadn't planted that bomb at his house he'd be campaigning for BO. He's a liberal, that's what they do.

[ Obama’s answer: “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, doesn’t make much sense ]

Yeah then how about Louis Farrahan whos acts are a bit more recent.. or Jerry Wright.. or (Raines or Johnson) ex-CEO's of Freddie and Fannie.. then theres Rezco.. the Chicago political machines point man..

How about Obama openly campaigning for his communist cousin Odinga who signed a pact with Muslims to enact Sharia Law if elected and started riots when he lost. Obama campaigned for an openly Anti-American candidate in a foreign country in 2006.

[Forward the Light Brigade]

I am as much a Christian as anyone else. If William Ayers had said he regretted his past actions and renounced them I could forgive him. But he did not. He said he should have used more bombs. The fact that he has not repented his actions means he could do it again. He is a Terrorist now. He is worse than Osama ben Laden —he attacked others he believed falsely were his enemy. Ayers attacked his own American people! Sarah Palin is right to bring this relationship front and center.

[AuntB]

Bump to read later, thanks!

[word_warrior_bob]

Obama’s cousin started a revolution when he lost his election and Obama campaigned for his communist cousin. Spread the video around.

A few interesting links that this thread has led me to find:

Has Trevor Loudon found the Ayers-Dohrn-Obama “smoking gun”? Meet the Movement for a Democratic Society

Obama File 27 Reds, Radicals, Terrorists and Traitors-Progressives For Obama

[Right Wing Assault]

But obama says he is “mainstream” and “respected.”

Ayers says of himself, “Guilty as hell, free as a bird.”

Where ever evil Ayers is standing now and whatever he is doing, it shouldn’t be. He should be standing in a prison cell and he knows it. So should his evil wife.

[Eagle of Liberty]

Did not know this little tidbit:

From my above links, Jane Fonda-”Hanoi Jane”, is the former wife of Tom Hayden.

TOM HAYDEN Author of Ending the War in Iraq, a five-time Democratic convention delegate, former state senator, and board member of the Progressive Democrats of America. Hayden was also a founder in 1964 of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS). According to Discover the Networks:

During the Vietnam War, Hayden traveled many times to North Vietnam, Czechoslovakia, and Paris to strategize with Communist North Vietnamese and Viet Cong leaders on how to defeat America’s anti-Communist efforts. He came back from Hanoi proclaiming he had seen “rice roots democracy at work.” According to people who were present at the time...Hayden offered advice on conducting psychological warfare against the U.S.
