Bill Ayers: “I wrote Dreams From My Father”
Chicago Daily Observer ^ | October 6, 2009 | Anne Leary

Posted on 10/06/2009 8:22:46 AM PDT by PBRCat

There I was, sitting in Reagan National Monday morning, sipping a Starbucks by the United counter before going through security. I had a little time, so I was browsing through the news. That's when I saw Bill Ayers, an instant blight. Scruffy, thinning beard, dippy earring, and the wirerims, heading to order. I gathered my things, got my camera ready, and snapped a shot right when he got his coffee.

He gave me an uneasy cheesy smile when he realized I was taking his picture.

I asked--what are you doing in D.C. Mr. Ayers?

[He said] he was giving a lecture in Arlington to a Renaissance group on education--that's what I do, education--you shouldn't believe everything you hear about me, you know nothing about me.

Then, unprompted he said--I wrote Dreams From My Father. I said, oh, so you admit it. He said--Michelle asked me to. I looked at him. He seemed eager. He's about my height, short. He went on to say--and if you can prove it, we can split the royalties. So I said, stop pulling my leg. Horrible thought. But he came again--I really wrote it, the wording was similar. I said I believe you probably heavily edited it. He said--I wrote it.

Re: “Limbaugh mentioned this story at the very top of his program today...”

***********

I barely heard it from another room and almost broke my foot getting closer to the radio. Was quite thrilled to hear it mentioned after sending him the link yesterday a.m.

No doubt MANY people sent it around — and I’d say there’s little doubt Rush and other conservative hosts/their staffs DO read FR — so often something one of them says on radio sounds like what I just read on FR that day...

Obama is in the same camp as Ayers. Our troops are being terrorized by their own c o c waiting for him to send them backup.

Yes, Ayers did advocate reeducation camps in the US after his planned Red takeover of the country.

Cliff's guests included Larry Grathwohl, the FBI's undercover agent who penetrated Ayers' Weather Underground and produced this stunning testimony about Ayers' plan to massacre 25 million Americans, retired S.F. policeman James Pera, first on the scene at the bombing, and veteran researcher Trevor Loudon.

... including testimony from other Weather Underground members, that Dohrn planted the bomb that killed Sgt. McDonnell.

Great link - thanks for sharing. Maybe in his overstressed state Bill's megalomania has just gotten the better of him.

...just like AYERS also supported the imposition of Communist Re-Education Camps in a once FREE Vietnam after the Fall of FREEDOM there:

Did Ayers say this AFTER Chicago lost the Olympic bid? Maybe Ayers was expecting some payola from the Olympics in Chicago and that dream was dashed by the OIC. People like Ayers hate money but not if it’s coming due to them.

Doesn’t everyone in a coma wait for a famous reporter like “bob” to come in their room to wake up and chat?

I believe he wrote the book as well, but this story doesn’t pass the smell test. It’s all just too pat. Besides, it would be a he-said vs she-said thing. Without witnesses or tape of some sort, it’s all mute and Ayers knew it when he said it (providing he did).

Well, it seems like some "journalist" - maybe one among the thousands who work in the United States - could call Ayers and ask him.

Last week Matthews and his panel couldn't seem to remember any politician who has written their own book.

Matthews is just another tool with extremely selective memory. Someday he'll find it necessary to not remember any politician ever sending a tingle up his leg.

Now what’s the connection between the commie Ayers and George Soros?

I believe that Barack Hussein obama is a total fraud, and a plant of Soros and the muslims. Even apart from that, he is completely unqualified to be President.

Am I right, or am I just another conspiracy theorist?

As the late former President Ronald Reagan once said, “If not us, then who; if not now, then when.”

John Lewis said that on May 16th, 1961, in a letter to fellow civil rights activists.

He's a Democratic congressman now.

It is getting beyond deniability that Obama is a fraud, the question is can we video Ayers at this? I think it wouldn’t be too hard. Do it.

“...perhaps Ayers is a little bitter about that...claiming some of the darkness for himself now.
They always end up eating each other.

Ayers better watch himself, or he’ll be one of the first in line for the neo-Purges, one of the 25 million dead white people he called for. Those who don’t show enough fervor for the Pres__ent will act as an example for the rest of us.”

Yes, I think so, too.

It definately would have been better had she worded this differently. It does stretch the imagination that she just happened to catch him at the airport and he just spilled the beans to her. It could have happened, but...

She was probably trying to get an off the cuff remark from him and he obviously knew who she was and was messing with her.
