Bill Ayers Speaks…Plans on Attending Grant Park Obama Party
The Washington Compost ^ | 11-04-08 | Peter Slevin

CHICAGO -- In his first interview since he became an issue in the 2008 presidential campaign, Bill Ayers, the former Weather Underground leader, said today that he had a distant relationship with Barack Obama and that Obama's opponents had turned him into "a cartoon character."

Ayers, now an education professor at the University of Illinois-Chicago, said he thought the accusation by Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin that Obama had been "palling around with terrorists" was absurd.

"Pal around together? What does that mean? Share a milkshake with two straws?"Ayers said. "I think my relationship with Obama was probably like thousands of others in Chicago. And, like millions and millions of others, I wish I knew him better."

They will NOW come out of imposed gag orders and hiding. Like cockroaches at night. Unrestrained from any ‘campaign’ rules. This will be a circus (I was going to say ‘staring tomorrow), but they’ll start even tonite now. Ayers, Wright, Dhorn, and the rest of the terrorist, racists scumbags. You thought that Clinton and Carter were bad. You aint’ seen nuttin yet!

" Jeremiah Wright will be providing the invocation, Louis Farakkhan and the Nation of Islam will be providing security detail, and William Ayers will be putting on the fireworks display. "

Yep. This is what the libs have brought us. Expect buyer's remorse very soon...probably even before the inauguration.

The hatred the voters had toward Bush has now been quenched with the election of the marxist Obama. It’s sort of like cutting off your nose with a very dull knife to spite your face. America is spelled S T U P I D!

This man is going to have to keep his head down or risk getting drilled with a hollow point.

If a President Obama thinks he can appoint either Ayers or Klonsky (Maoist and former SDS member) to Secretary of Education status, he has made a grave error in judgement. Actually, I’m kind’a hoping he does just that. It will be a monumental screw-up that could sweep Republicans back into control of Congress!

That is if free elections still exist, if Obama hasn’t set himself up as dictator for life and abolished Congress and the Surpreme Court. Not hard to tell I’m depressed. Gee, I think I’ll get another very large glass of pinot noir.

If Obummer wins......

We might as well get use to the fact that ALL of the people that Barry disowned to become president will be accepted back into the fold.

And will become advisers to the President of the United States at some level.

The people will have spoken. This will be what they voted for, whether they like it or not.

I had no idea that there were this many useful idiots in this country.

We need to be smart and start planning. Before he gets in we need to find some way to prosecute him for crimes. First crime is withholding his BC or otherwise know as committing fraud in the highest degree against the citizens of the United Sates of America. I am sure we can find others. Whatever comes up we need to act on it very quickly possibly in many courts. We need to get organized and fast if he should “win” this election.

Black nationalism is the part of the Obama equation that scares me most. Some of Ayer’s early comments in Prairie Fire, etc. Some of the clowns that Obama hangs around-Farrakhan, that other clown.

Scary shiite.

Wouldn’t it be delicious irony if the post celebration riots in Chicago tonight result in the fire bombing of Le Chateau Ayers !

I'll be quite surprised if he does. I'll be quite surprised if the damage is limited to just that. Say your prayers.

My sentiments also:
I believe alot of black Americans, including Colin Powell, have chosen their blackness over Jesus Christ and their country.
I also believe that alot of white Americans have chosen a free hand out, over Jesus Christ and their country.
God help us all!

I am sure there will be a place for the unrepentant terrorist in Dear Leader’s cabinet. God help us during the next 2-4 years, we need to make sure there is a FREE country left. First to fall will be Talk Radio.
