Ayeres bombed the Pentagon and on 9/11/2001 was quoted in the NYT as saying he only wishes his bombs did more damage. Remember?
*shakes head*
Let's get this straight: I'm not defending Bill Ayers, nor am I suggesting he didn't bomb the Pentagon. It's an established fact that he did, that he became a fugitive and, unfortunately, avoided facing justice because of the illegal tactics employed by Federal law-enforcement officials. I don't respect Bill Ayers or give his opinion on
any topic much weight.
With all that said, what does that have to do with Barack Obama? Even if Obama's political career 'started' in Ayers' living room what does that matter? Would it make a difference if he decided to enter politics in John Wayne's kitchen? Or Ronald Reagan's favorite bistro? Or his fucking toilet?
You don't say it because it proves anything about Obama, you say it because it allows you to get out there, in a roundabout way, something you cannot possibly support with facts and evidence. I mean, shit, you might as well just add "
Wink Wink, Nudge Nudge" after your statement.
By all means, point out
specific things that Obama
himself said or did that betray his sympathy for and/or allegiance to Ayers, the Weather Underground, Alinksy, Lenin, Marx and whathaveyou. We can and should judge the man on his own words and his own action. But I just don't see the point in judging Obama based on the words and actions of others.
