Please pardon my ignorance, but how is it that Ayers isn’t in jail for life? I suspect it’s some prosecutorial screw-up, but if someone can provide the specifics, I would greatly appreciate it.

It wasn't the prosecutors, but the police. See here.

Good link. From NRO:
FOX News on Obama [Stanley Kurtz] FOX News is going to be airing a special report this weekend on Barack Obama’s background, associations, etc. I did a long taped interview for the show, and I expect that parts of it will be used. The report is scheduled to air today (Saturday) at 9PM ET, Sunday at 5AM ET, and again on Sunday at 2PM ET.

It was a well orchestrated screw up - his father was chairman of Commonwealth Edison, one of the richest men in Illinois, and a primary financial support of the Daley family and political machine.

Ayers was royalty slumming among the peasants and playing at revolution. His family's money and political connections fixed the case, by having the prosecutors deliberately screw up, and a judge then threw the case out on the resulting technicalities.

Ayers is above the law, because the Daley political machine and the Democratic party generally, is above the law. To them, the whole point of political power is impunity.

So can’t some private citizen file a lawsuit in Illinois against Dohrn for teaching without a license? I mean, Obamanoughts did Joe the Plumber dirty because he didn’t have a license. Turn around is Fair Play, isn’t it?

All’s fair in love and politics.

My evil twin thought that up, btw, and told me to post it.

” To them, the whole point of political power is impunity.”

In the finest Chicago Mafia tradition.

It's also always entertaining to hear the ‘I was 8-yrs old’ argument. He wasn't 8 when he voluntarily associated with Ayers. On the flip-side some of these same people think we should all be paying reparations for slavery, even though none of us were alive then, and most of our families didn't live in the US then. Just more hypocrisy.

With regards Ayers, I don't think the question should only be ‘Why did Obama choose to associate with him’. I think an equally important question is ‘Why did Ayers take the time to support Obama and host a political coming-out party at his home for Obama?’. The answer is that at the very least he felt that Obama had similar political views and goals. That's a telling realization in and of itself.

Let me repeat, ACORN WAS CO-FOUNDED BY WILLIAM AYRES!!!

Where does it say this in the linked video? It only says it was founded by Wade Rathke, a comrade of Ayers. It does our cause no good to spread lies.

The forum has posted to be careful that Freepers are on to it, and secondly no license is required to teach above High School level.

There’s another thread up about this- making the same claim.

I’ve watched the video twice and there is no reference to Ayers being a co-founder of ACORN. An associate of his from the SDS days was a founder.

We know Ayers has a strong connection with ACORN- but as yet there’s no proof he was a co-founder.

If someone can show me at what point in this video it says otherwise- please let me know.

It’s WRONG. ACORN was founded be SEIU founder, Rathke. It received money from CAC which was put together by Ayers and run by Obama with Ayers as head of its operating arm.

Spreading falsehoods is not helpful. Intentionally or not, this is a falsehood.

Exactly as you said on the other thread- and should be repeated here.

Bill Ayers FUNDED ACORN- he was not a founder.
