In his new book, "Barack and Michelle: Portrait of an American Marriage," Best-selling celebrity journalist, Christopher Andersen, has blown a huge hole in the Obama genius myth without intending to do so.
Relying on inside sources, quite possibly Michelle Obama herself, Andersen describes how Dreams came to be published -- just as I had envisioned it in my articles on the authorship of Dreams. With the deadline pressing, Michelle recommended that Barack seek advice from "his friend and Hyde Park neighbor Bill Ayers."
To flesh out his family history, Obama had taped interviews with various family members. Andersen writes, "These oral histories, along with a partial manuscript and a truckload of notes, were given to Ayers." Andersen quotes a Hyde Park neighbor, "Everyone knew they were friends and that they worked on various projects together. It was no secret. Why would it be? People liked them both."
Andersen continues, "In the end, Ayers's contribution to Barack's Dreams From My Father would be significant--so much so that the book's language, oddly specific references, literary devices, and themes would bear a jarring similarity to Ayers's own writing."
More to come!
Barry started with a 'who' when Ayers was raised by someone in media.
Then there was the 'well, perhaps they met because their children attend the same schools' (Mara Liasson tried that lie right before the election on FOX Special Report with Brit Hume, and no one raised even an eyebrow to correct her idiocy).
Then there was 'well, he's a college professor who lives in my neighborhood.'
Then there was the 'well, I think we served on an Annenberg board overseeing an educational program in Chicago, but I don't know the guy personally.'
Then 'I don't really know about Ayers' past, I was only six when all that stuff your referring to took place.'
The idea is to layer on lies, adding only what is needed to placate the particular challenge that Axelgreasy knows the enemedia will repeat for him. The process was used with Obama's commie friends, his close asscoiation to ACORN, his hidden history, the reverend wrong, etc. The process was even used with the Larry Sinclair embarrassment.
You have to understand, it’s the death of a thousand cuts.
Post 69 is for you, too.
There is video of him in a few debates denying that his campaign was kicked off at Ayers' home. I'm almost certain that he denied any association with Ayers other than being neighbors.
You’re right on the mark.....Cashill now on Rusty Humphries.
Links to listen live online?
{Head slap}
Great thread.
Doesn't matter if it's new or not if a lot of people still aren't aware of it. Besides, there are new details here that weren't in the other articles. In any case, thanks for the link.
More than ever I agree with Andrew Breitbart... more than anything, I want to see the sealed Obama college transcripts.
Oh really, The MSM lead the charge on Van Jones and ACORN? Alternative media, not CNN, ABC and the rest would still be silent if not for FOX and Glenn Beck. Get a clue before you preach to others!
Give him some space...he’s not acting like a troll so far.
Hm. Never noticed that. Red Star, eh?
Barry and Billy on Brokeback Mountain; not that there's anything wrong with that.Bill Ayers went running through Chicago October 8-11, 1969, breaking plate glass windows--that was his idea of "revolution".
Chicagoans told us, "They belong in jail!" Yes. Actually.
Now comes Bill Ayers the bomber. Set Bernie up the bomb. Cowardly killing cops from behind others' skirts.
Bill Ayers calling for the elimination of twenty-five million who resist the revolution.
Bill Ayers who cheers Hugo Chavez with viva la revolucion! Hasta la victoria siempre!.
Bill Ayers who wishes he had done more.
The guy in Barry's neighborhood who did stuff when Barry was eight.
When Barry was nine, Frank Marshall Davis did
himstuff.Until Barry was eighteen, CPUSA member Davis was all over Barry.
Later, when Barry couldn't finish his homework, Bill Ayers rode in like the glorious Red Army of the Davis mythology.
But it's only a flesh wound, Monty.
Lots of Active Measures ciphers have bodacious Bolsheviks writing their term papers for them.
Although I can't name any others right now.
Post 69 is for you, too.
Stands to reason. The “voice” in that book sounds nothing like Obama’s public voice.
I included the link but I doubt it works at this point.
****************************
A little-noticed disclaimer at the front of his 442-page memoir of his youth, Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance, says: For the sake of compression, some of the characters that appear are composites of people that Ive known, and some events appear out of precise chronology. With the exception of my family and a handful of public figures, the names of most characters have been changed for the sake of their privacy.
The disclosure calls into question the pages and pages of years-old dialogue that Obama recalled when he was writing the book, a frank and searching account of his effort to come to terms with issues of race in America, at age 33. Lynn Sweet, the dogged Washington reporter for the Chicago Sun-Times, spotted the disclaimer in 2004 and wrote one of the few critical stories every [sic] printed about Obama. I say in the book it is my remembrances of what happened, he told her in an interview. I dont set it out as reportage read the book for what it is worth.

Holy cow. What does she give him for a headache, cyanide?
Cashill’s done a fantastic job on this.
I wonder if anyone will actually cover it now.
