In other words, Obama was too much of a chicken @(#* poser to blow up anything until he had the US military under him to to it for him.
Exactly. Remember Ayers and the SDS and the Weathermen came out of the anti-draft, antiwar movement. Ayers is probably about 15 years older than Obama and they came out of somewhat different founts of leftism.
They are both far leftists but in different ways. Obama is more anti-white, anti-Christian. Ayers is pure hippie: Not a racist nerve in his body, one way or the other. Everybody is OK except the warmongering government.
There are many leftists in my neighborhood who are to the left of Obama. On the war issue, and on other ties to the power structure.
