REVISITING THE OBAMA-AYERS CONNECTION

Many of you probably watched portions, if not all of, Megyn Kelly’s interviews with Bill Ayers, the unrepentant domestic terrorist of yesteryear. Kelly did her usual excellent job of pressing Ayers on his violent past.

But Stanley Kurtz wishes she had pressed Ayers more about his relationship with Barack Obama. For, as Kurtz points out, Ayers and Obama had a much tighter political alliance than Ayers admitted to on Kelly’s show.

Kelly focused on Ayers’ fundraiser for Obama’s first political campaign, rather than their time together on several left-leaning Chicago foundation boards. This is understandable — anyone can sit beside someone else on this or that board.

But Kurtz demonstrated in his book Radical-in-Chief that Ayers and Obama weren’t just fellow board members; they were left-wing soul mates who used their power to place each other in positions where they could radically affect the education received by children in Chicago.

Obama lied during the 2008 election and said he did not know Ayers. Yet, after the election he claimed they met weekly.

Ayers just lied to Kelly and said he did not know Obama, yet, they shared and office together and Obama already said he lived in the same neighborhood and met weekly.

See extensive discussion on related thread speculating that Megyn may have something linking Barry to Ayers and his co-conspirator Budin:
