The McCain campaign, in a continuing effort to link Barack Obama to domestic terrorism, released a statement Wednesday from a New York supporter, recounting how his family home was firebombed by the radical 1960s group founded by Obama supporter William Ayers.

But the McCain supporter, John M. Murtagh, has his own ties to radical protesters: He served as a lawyer for a Catholic priest who led protests at an abortion clinic that turned violent.

Oh, OK. We're going to engage in a round of "6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon"? This is hardly equivalent to the DIRECT connection between Obama & Ayers.

So legal work for a priest is the equivalent of someone who firebombed your home and tried to kill your parents.

Outrageous, but this is exactly what Obama and the leftists believe.

The guy was firebombed as a kid, and now he is portrayed as a villain for daring to stand up to these scumbags!!!

yeah they are not serious that they are trying to rubbish a man who family was almost slaughtered by Ayers to attack him for defending a priest. Oh we have really jumped the shark.

So Murtaugh represented a priest who was acquitted of all the charges against him.

Bill Ayers was involved in several bombings and murders.

Father Murphy was accused of trespassing.

Reciting the "Pater Noster" is violence to the baby killers.

I was in a bar once, where the whole scene turned violent. Lots of beer and punches thrown. Some blood spilled. Police involved.

And I plan on voting for McCain.

I hope none of this ever comes out and sinks the McCain candidacy.

"With all due respect, I think it's a stretch. Father Murphy was being sued for praying outside an abortion clinic," Mr. Murtagh said.

The WSJ is a joke anymore.

No better than Newsweak.

Here is a laughable attempt by a serious journalist at CNN to make a similar case:

Why Ayers case is risky for McCain-Palin [Barfer] (CNN ^ | 10/08/08 | Roland Martin )

This is all getting ridiculous. McCain’s swinging in quicksand here - every time he brings up Ayers it drives the independents away.

If Palin & McCain are going to win this one, they need to hit Obama on his tax plan, his plans to surrender in Iraq, and his health care plan.

The Democrats are playing Brer Rabbit here - “oh please don’t run any attacks about Rezko or Wright or Ayers!”
They know that if they can keep the focus off the issues, they have a shot at winning next month.

We’re falling into their trap. What happened to touting Palin and McCain as reformers?

Lawyers defend all sorts of people. What has he said politically himself and what criminal activities has he personally engaged in?

The real evil is attacking Murtaugh for his adult work as an attorney, in an effort to suppress the fact he was a firebombing victim at the age of 9.

The article catalogs that the priest Murtaugh represented was almost always successful in court based on free speech.

at the very end they mention that Ayers became a fugitive after three of his cohorts were blown up in their own terrorist bomb factory.

Very similar indeed.

Wonder how far they had to dig for that one? Is that the best they could do?

Mmmm...did he break the Priest out of prison and get him to a foreign country?
Did the Priest have ties in Algiers?
Was the Priest calling for a Communist government in the US?
Did he praise Fidel Castro? Chavez?
Did he spend summers picking banannas for Castro?
Did he send a birthday greeting to Ho Chi Minh by way of a Pentagon bombing on his birthday?

Wow, making sure a defendant’s Constitutional Rights are defended in a court of law...the shame!
