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.

Bill Ayers is an arrogant SOB. I can believe he made those remarks unprompted.
That’s the way he is. I bet it kills him not to get any credit for authorship.
So isn’t this huge breaking news? A terrorist wrote his book? So he LIED when he said Ayers was just a neighbor down the street? If this is true that he admitted writing the book then this is a really, really big story.
this man should not be able to show his face in public without someone walking up and punching his lights out.
He is whomever and whatever he needs to be at any given moment. He is all things to everyone, but he is really nothing. He just speaks his garbage then lets the media define him. So if you really want to know who Barak Hussein Obama is, just look at whatever the media cover up about him, that will be who he is.
Interesting.
Devastating
I want one of those phones that you tap & it starts recording, like the guy had who was stopped in customs because he had a few thousand bucks on him.
The recording of this would be even more valuable than the testimony
LOL! Ayers is prolly pissed obama has not written any communiques giving Ayers credit.
Yes He Did.
Bet Ayers is frosted now that instead of being an ideologue like himself, Obama turned out to be a craven capitalist who went off and made a fortune on HIS book, lives in unbelievable splendor, etc. and only spouts leftist drivel instead of living it.
As Jackie Gleason would say: har har dee har har !!
I find it hard to believe that Ayers is not smart enough to realize that he himself has the power to “prove it”.
What I find hard to believe is that Ayers apparently feels like he needs someone else to help him prove it.
Our individual writing style is very much like a fingerprint, and almost just as unique.
All Ayers would have to do is claim authorship, and file suit for breach of contract based on whatever royalties Obama has failed to pay him for his work.
Did Ayers do it as a favor? Did Obama pay him for doing it? I guess if we want to find out, we will just have to convince Obama to throw Ayers back under the bus a little bit more.
It seems improbable and maybe Ayers was messing around. However, Backyard Conservative posted the picture taken here:

Somebody should follow up and ask Ayers for an interview on this subject.
The Horror!
bttt
Nailed it.
Leftists historically kill their ideological opponents.
Currently, they’re looking for an excuse.
Be worried when they don’t think they need an excuse anymore.
[So we’re back at square one - who is Obama?]
Nope, we are WORSE than “square one” - we are under the control of a pliable, easily led, narcissist that would do whatever he is told so long as he gets to claim the glory and is idolized!
THOSE are dangerous people, because they have no reasoning behind their decisions! I would more respect a dyed-in-the-wool Marxist, because at least he has conviction - Obama is a rogue NUT CASE!!
It eats the little attention whore alive. I’m convinced it was Ayers who spilled to beans to Christopher Andersen.
He could become a problem for Zero at some point.
Even if we can assume that Ayers was pulling Leary’s leg, a distinct possibility that she, herself, addressed in the blog, I cannot believe that members of “Team Obama” can be too pleased that Bill Ayers broke his silence even to joke about the subject. In doing so, he broke the “Code of Silence.”
