Stomp on This?
By Larry Johnson on May 3, 2008 at 7:33 PM in Annenberg Chicago Challenge, Barack Obama, Bill Ayers, Current Affairs
Barack Obama may have been eight years old when William “Billy” Ayers was planting bombs at the State Department and the U.S. Capitol, but the Senator was a grown man working in the employ of Mr. Ayers when this picture appeared in August 2001.
Bill Ayers was busy promoting his book and this was one of the promotional photos. Two of the money quotes from a book published in 2003,
-
Family Circle: The Boudins and the Aristocracy of the Left
(by Susan Braudy on p. 352) states:
my second proudest achievement was living underground for ten years without getting arrested.
and
guilty as hell, free as a bird, it’s a great country.
And then a month later told a New York Times reporter his only regret was that he did not plant more bombs. So what does this have to do with Barack Obama?
Plenty! Barack was the Chairman of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge Foundation. Bill Ayers, an unrepentant terrorist with wealthy family connections, had co-founded the Chicago Foundation and named Obama as the Chairman of said entity. So by 2001 Barack and Ayers had worked closely together on an effort to reform Chicago public schools. I am all in favor of school reform. But if you are involved with politics you ought to understand that if you hang with, work with, and politic with a guy who is an unrepentant terrorist that it might reflect badly on you. In fact, you should put some distance between yourself and said terrorist.
Barack did not. What is curious is that Barack despite facing criticism about his lack of experience, is closed mouthed when it comes to discussing his stint running a $50 million dollar foundation. What is he hiding? That is a question that will be answered before the November presidential election. The only doubt is whether the Democrats will insist on finding out the truth first or will let the Republicans serve them a steaming pile of crap come the fall. And while the image of Bill Ayers gleefully stomping the American flag makes the rounds, Obama’s vain attempt to portray himself as a new kind of non-politician will be stomped into oblivion.
























Too bad their FIRST book is no longer in print. you know, the one that calls for a unified Communist Party?
Which iteration would that be? Leninist? Stalinist? Maoist?
Man, when I was in college and I was cool, I had a copy of Mao’s little red book.
(Clearly i had no potential to be a revolutionary because i found it very boring, and the people who quoted from it incessantly especially BORING!)
Out of them all, only anarchy — in its purest form — ever appealed to me. Someday, I need to read a good book about the anarchic period in Spain. Would love to know more about that history. Of course, as Orwell pointed out, there were no “good guys” in all of that.
Then there was my brief Ayn Rand period. Went to an Objectivist meeting once. At least they were interesting — they made such a romance of intellectualism.
Susan, when you have the time, try reading Anthony Beevor’s The Battle for Spain, published, I believe in the 80’s…a fascinating history of the Spanish Civil War and good background for anyone who enjoyed “Pan’s Labrynth”.
Larry, as for Billy Ayers, I think he would have been better served living in Northern Ireland during The Troubles..hell, even the IRA (with a few notable exceptions) called-in their bomb warnings!
Agree and although I do not in any way support terrorism of any kind,
the IRA had a serious political agenda. Eventually peace is in Northern Ireland. Ayers and his ilk have no cause except destruction. Anarchy.
I’m only mentioning the difference between imagined political ideologies and real ones. Ayers is a demogogue.
I don’t think peace is achieved through violence, though.
The IRA had other ways, and aren’t a lot of the mercs former IRA?
Not a good thing, at all…
And they blew up Lord Mountbatten, and still murdered civilians, despite warnings.
Boy, I remember the pictures of his devasted ship, very bad, unnecessary, terrorism is terrorism.
No thanks.
I’m not in any way saying peace is justified by terrorism.
I was drawing a distinction about Ayers being a rich kid anarchist. That is all…I do not support terrorism any more than I would support fascism. I apologize for the clumsiness of my example.
I found it funny when a supporter of a multi (VERY multi) millioner Clinton talks about “rich kids”. She is a poor girl then, I guess.
My anarchy period was in 2000, for obvious reasons, and crested in ‘04.
I still think the blue states should’ve seceded.
Blobert….chuckle…In my Neck O’ The Woods…..Folks still reminisce bout how we used to be our own country….I’m from Texas so I do sympathize….chuckle…
Why is no one reporting on the fact that Obama is lying thru his teeth about his relationsship with Ayers and Dohrn.
Both Barack and Michelle worked with Dohrn at the law firm of Sidley Austin…and Dohrn is reported to have been Michelle’s mentor there
HA! You had the book–I had the stupid hat and jacket! I found the fashion more intriguing than the philosophy!
which period of anarchy would that ne?
I rather enjoy reading about the Guerillas during teh Peninsular war. Spontaneous uprisng after a pathetic convetional defence. And lots of Brits running around.
OT, but since you mentioned Mao…
When I first moved to China, I asked a friend to teach me some of the Mao-era slogans. The first thing I learned to say really well in Chinese was “打倒美帝国主义(Down with American Imperialism).” To her horror, whenever I was asked if I could speak Chinese, I would respond with that sentence.
We had IT contractor friends who were hacked by the Chinese, one memorable weekend, in 1998.
I think it was F*CK YOU AMERICAN on every single home page.
In retrospect, damn funny…
Heck Susan, our five hosed hookah had southern comfort in the bottom and so I read Camus and Sarte. and, when the mesc was in town, Swift, while listening to King Crimson. But that’s another story altogether.
Obama as 21st Century Schizoid Man?
.
OMG King Crimson. I used to stare at the album cover with that strange dark face. Orange barrels, microdots, Jefferson Airplane. How did we survive?
The first thing you did was put down the King Crimson.
That alone made a highly significant difference.
Here’s some food for thought everyone. I want to share a little conspiracy theory with you.
What if some private investors knew someone who is related to a top offical in Kenya.
That top official has oil in his land.
It would be a real advantage if these investors could get this relative elected to a top office in the US. After all, let the US pay for a lot of the expense for drilling.
Think how many big officials that can make or break a country’s electability… but if promised a cut of the pie told in secrecy… can overlook a multitude of short commings of a person.
Just thinking.
Someone, ANYONE, PLEASE email this to hannity@foxnews.com, since he seems to be the only media really interested in vetting Obama! Thanks!
P.S. THIS could be the final nail in Obama’s coffin!!! Please email it!!!
you can bet the repubs have it. they have done research on obambi for years.
Oh Brother…..Ayers is a phony Marxist at that. Good Post Larry. This is a great country. People like Ayers have no shame.
I mentioned this before, as a kid, my friends and I would hang out with a group of engineering and physics students.
And it was this group that was “recruited” by this guy, a “communist,” a small guy, with glasses, who also attended the University of Illinois, at Chicago, where Ayers teaches, and where my friend went to school.
Even as a kid, we knew those people were delusional, just unrealistic in their projections, in their understanding of Americans, and this guy WAS an American. But we went to listen to him anyway, at someones apartment, just to hear what he had to say. When we got there, he checked to see if the cops had followed us(!), his faithful crew of two sitting by his feet. One girl, just completely deranged, ideologically, for lack of a better word, almost seemed besotted, just glad for the validation this guy gave to her, he being the head commie, I suppose. He treated her like a second class citizen, the dysfunction SO obvious.
The only thing I remember about the meeting was arguing with him he had no understanding of blue collar Americans, (the base he was hoping to lead to revolution, and he didn’t), and a cracked porcelain tea cup, sitting on a TV tray atop a lace doily.
I read about Ayers, here, and I think how far from reality can this guy be, to speak and think like this?
Amazing, just amazing.
I never took it seriously, I thought they were a joke, didn’t even give it a second thought, he was such an intellectual lightweight.
AYERS IS A CRAZY CRACKER MOFO ANARCHIST PROBABLY STILL ON BAD ACID ! To imagine this person having a teaching job is bad enough….To imagine this person having political influence on a presidential contender……Frightening and Outrageous

No kidding WCA. My mother came from Hungary. If that rich, white douche had to go one day without an espresso or a $200 bottle Cabernet, he’d pull into a fetal position and start sucking his thumb. He has no idea want real life is like. He’s no different than Bush as far as I’m concerned. Just the other end of the spectrum.
Strawberry, I too come from ex-communist country. Obama and the rest of the communists “wanna be” in US have no idea what kind of nightmare that is. We were afraid (my family, I myself was young) of our own shadows.
Amanda, my mom came here when she was 26, she is now 77. She still has nightmares. I’m so glad you’re here. And on a former CIA agents website…oh the irony.
analyst
Obama and the rest of the communists “wanna be” in US
Obama isn’t a Communist, wannabe or otherwise.
Calling Obama or other liberal Democrats “wannabe Communists” is actually quite accurate, Steve J. They may not take to the label, but they espouse similar policy positions. Not to mention the fact they are supporting Hugo Chavez against Columbia.
Yes, sure, Uribe the death squad and drug person is MUCH better, than Chaves. Yes, tell me who is your friend
I worked with a girl from Romania, years ago. It took her years to get over the fact that we could talk freely in public, without fear of being hauled away.
I hate these wannabes like Ayers and Obama. It’s all an intellectual sport for them. How I’d love to see either of them do some hard work, you know — dig ditches, pour asphault, run a daycare.
They should’ve gotten plenty of experience making license plates years ago.
How funny, and I am from the USSR and I do NOT remember such horrors - and I am a Jew, by the way. But I understand that a lot of East Europeans in USA like to tell fairy tales about “communist hell” - to let USAmericans feel how great they are in their great USA. I wonder, does the fact that their former country NOW is helping USA rape Iraq and Afghanistan gives such people a new pride?
Agree……This guy would have been laughed out of any labor meeting or those hard nosed socialists. Those folks had a cause they believed in and fought for because the class structure was still midevil….
Ayers is just a phony psuedointellectual malcontented egotist who is simply an anarchist……Anarchists are too impatint to believe in building anything….Your average burglar is more real than this idiot……
” With all the imperfections of our present government, it is without comparison the best existing, or that ever did exist…..”
Thomas Jefferson
and just a brief opinion on anarchists. Not all anarchists are bomb-throwing assholes. Definition of anarchist is a person who thinks all forms of government are wrong. I think Ursula LeGuin (oh hell, maybe it was Doris Lessing.. or even somebody else) wrote a book trying to create an anarchist society. I think i remembered they had to go through a lot of contortions to do it– and obviously I didn’t find it highly memorable. But still, it was an interesting excercise by the writer. And the people in it were not prone to violence.
Ayers is in a class of psychopaths. Hidden in any movement I would have to venture he would be the same. He just drifted where he could set off bombs and high-five other pieces of shit of his ilk. But I guess that’s the point everybody’s making.
Yep, Ursula LeGuin’s THE DISPOSSESSED. Great book. Left Hand Of Darkness is a good one too.
Anarchy, from the ancient Greek, means “against the rule”
Democracy, from the ancient Greek, means “rule by the neighborhoods”
Idiot, from the ancient Greek, means “obsessed with self”
Don’t tell me my ejicashun don’t count for nutin.
And apparently, you had early classes!
Diogenes is the only anarchist I ever liked despite the onion breath….. ” Stand aside Sir !….Your Blocking my sun….! ”
Alleged response to query from AlexanderThe Great…..
Frankie Adams in “A Member of the Wedding.”
They all think they’re going on the honeymoon, too, with the bride and groom, to live a new life filled with perfect happiness.
People like Ayers, or Dorhn, or even Cheney, or Bush…
Barry’s daddy was a Marxist. In spite of the Barry’s pretending that there isn’t much information on poor ole dad except that he skipped town, his father was heavily involved in Kenyan goverment and a Marxist who published some interesting white papers on how government should be run.
if ayers dislikes this country so much, why didn’t he go live in another country? the answer, even with our many problems, he can live free here and even have a very respected job.
Larry it says the dem chiefs never vetted their chosen candidate, so the GOP will, starting with Thomas Ayers to Newton Minow and his daughter Martha who taught Obama at Harvard even down to Michelle Obama’s father being a Democrat pricinct captain calling in political favors!
and not to be left out Obama’s chosen grandfather Frank Davis in Hawaii, proud Communist Party of USA memeber and Obama mentor before college!
Of all the kapuna (elders — Hawaiian men and women of wisdom, Grandparents or by choice) Obama could have chosen as a mentor he chose this person and brags about it in his book.
There are so many Native Hawaiian Kapuna who could have served as a mentor to young Obama — but no he wasn’t much interested in the real Hawaii. My life is richer because of the Kapuna in Hawaii — now if you want story tellers — the oral tradition is and was very much alive in the Native Hawaiian community.
He just wanted to go to a rich kids school with other rich kids. Punahoe was the school of the “Missionary Boy’s Club” — the chauvinist pigs who overthrew the last Queen of Hawaii. She wanted to do right by her people — and the Missionary Boys just wanted to be Plantation Lords on the land they stole. Well we know who Obama’s heros were!
The more I learn about him — the more evidence there is that he is a self centered jerk.
You make a really good point. I love Hawaii, the culture, traditions, legends. I was amazed to find all that absent from Obama’s books. How can you grow up in Hawaii and miss all that?
He could have identified with the Hawaiian people, recognized their struggles, their history. Instead he’s tucked away in an elite private school, no doubt looking down on everybody else with the same self centered attitude he shows today.
Hehehe, Mel, a few weeks ago, or over a month ago, Michael Savage (don’t attack me, lol, I listen to him because he entertains me with some crazy ideas lol) anyway, Savage was talking about Frank-Obama relations, and how Obama mentions it in his book, calling Frank close friend, or mentor, or uncle, but doesn’t mention the full name. Savage then went on to talk about his “communist-marxist” ties and was livid. (Well, he goes livid pretty often.)
Again, because Obama was never vetted by the party, these ties were not brought up, but rest assured, the GOD will have a great time doing so if he is the nominee.
loool, I meant the GOP :).
the GOP will feel like GOD’s this fall if it is Obama….lol
10 FT tall and Bullet Proof….( sigh )
OH, good, maybe someone can impress upon them they should use the American military to invade the middle east.
Oh, wait.
How’d that work out for those bulletproof giants of the intellect, anyway?
LOL.
What’s this about Michelle’s daddy? Send me what you have, Mel. You are SUCH a great researcher…. and usually up to no good.
Michelles father was a long time Democrat Precinct captain in the dirty Chciago political arena, deliver votes and you are owed is the way it works, the Daley way there Susan!
In my mind, Obama was no accident rising star, he was a called in favor by Michelle’s dad before he died!
Ever loopk at the time Obama and Michelle met at Sidley Austin, never a correct year, some reports say 1988 some say 1989.
Someone also had to carry Obama though Harvard, he couldn’t of saved enough for food and lodging for 3 yrs off his community organizer job when Obama was renting a basement apartment outside Harvard costing $700 a month in rent!
Something gut feeling is connect Sidley Austin, Martha Minow who does a lot of work with Bernadine Dohrn and who’s father until 1991 was Sidley Austin’s managing partner and very active in Democratic politics going back to the days of JFK when head of FCC and good friend of Thomas Ayers and Daley! And don’t forget Michelle’s dad was earning over 40 grand a year working in a water plant, 25% more than teachers were making at the time, proving Michelle’s dad was a deliverer of his precinct big time!
Ever see the house Michelle lived in, it is no squabble she makes it out to be, it was owned by her Aunt who lived downstairs and they lived upstairs in the place, definately no slum dwelling!
LOL! This about proves my belief in the 7-degrees of separation theory! Kevin Bacon or no Kevin Bacon…
no 7 degrees, it is “All in the Family”…lol
Ok, according to wikipedia, Newton Minow was the inspiration for the shipwrecked USS Minnow, of the TV show, Gilligan’s ISland.
Apparently, he had referred to TV as a “vast wasteland,” striking some as elitist, and snobby.
A perfect metaphor for the Obama campaign.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_Minow
Apparently, the USS Minnow, the shipwreck from Gilligan’s Island, was named for Newton Minow.
He referred to TV as a “vast wasteland” which struck many as elitest, and snobby.
I see a perfect metaphor for Obama, and his campaign.
Oh he is more than that, he is considered by some the top Democrat dog in Illinois political circles, he shared that with Thomas Ayers till Ayers death last year!
Given how filthy IL is, that doesn’t say much at all.
I looked at his picture in wikipedia, and I thought, “my goodness, he looks like Rumsfeld.”
Who was also of IL, and Chicago…
Interesting.
Rumsfeld’s wife works with Minow on some boards!
Don’t forget, Obama supported Rumsfeld in 2004! Judgement….lol
I did not know, fascinating, and sad.
So much of this political “infection” seems to come from Chicago, whether it’s Rumsfeld, or Obama, and that’s my hometown.
I’m ashamed.
Look I’m from Texas….Currently we have the market on shame…..It is best to counter shame with action…No ?
yes.
Also his first summer at Sidley (?) during Harvard was unusual — now, where did I read that? — that first year law student’s getting such a plum summer job. Maybe Martha Minnow was behind that? Am I saying the obvious?
and btw, there is more in the email I sent you Susan, sent it to Larry, but he never got back!
Can soomeone do research into why Ayers and Dohrn REALLY got off so lightly and then got these prestigious jobs? Was it just his father or is it something uglier?
The COINTELPRO investigation against them was judged illegal. It didn’t hurt that they had money. Not a bit.
Hmmm.. I haven’t researched all that too much, but wonder how many strings were pulled to have it ruled illegal. Money talks…
Got off because of big lawyers and FBI breaking some rules of wiretaps. Dohrn got the job at NWU because Minow and Daddy Ayers are directors. Bill Ayers got his thanks to daddy big bucks and U of I.
It is all in who you know, think it was Rezko who got Michelle the big job at U of C Hospital, hardly, when you have backers like Pritzky, and Rowe who are major contributors of the hospital, Pritzkers have donated over 32 million to the place and build a childrens wing, James Crown is board of trustees chairman, so how did as it was called a very important job be created for Michelle there, so important she can take over a year off to campaign for hubby?
Not so important of one huh?
Did Michelle work as Daley’s assistant?
She left Sidley Austin to work for Daley as Assistant to the Mayor and Assistant Commissioner of Planning and Development
easy way to bypass city ordinants on a historic house, knowing all the people huh?
Dohrn got the job at NWU because Minow and Daddy Ayers are directors. Bill Ayers got his thanks to daddy big bucks and U of I.
This is not true and sounds like something I’d hear on wingnut radio.
what part isn’t true?
No…But it Pays well..Just Business as Usual..Ennie…Minni…Minni…Moe..They all Love Money and Uncle Joe…These are the Players don’t ya know..Bags of Money and Lots of Blow..Land of Opportunity is the Way to Go…
Light The Stage and do the Show..Networking is In..Don’t you know…Got a friend his name is Rezko..From Mayors to Ayers..They All should Go…
To a Nice Padded cell..or Even to Hell..
Ah.. and let’s not forget Joe Andrew who works for the law/lobbyist firm that has that hospital as a major client — and whose law firm is Obama’s #4 donor (over 100,000.00)
Follow the money…. it really clears things up.
His rich daddy hired him the best lawyers and I read where he got off on a surveillence technicality. Don’t know about Dohrn. She was so nasty probably no prison wanted her. She was one nasty little shit.
much of it was daddy! though all the others connected are no commenting it appears. however a good reporter down the road will probably get the story. of course making pelosibot and the rest look even more like the fools they are.
It was a $50 million foundation??
That sounds big to me. I don’t know what’s typical, but that’s not some small thing. It IS very interesting that Obama never mentions it.
1) it brings up his association with Ayers, which he tries to avoid; and
2) it was a colossal failure. SEE JustOneMinute blog’s description of the project.
A lot of money down the drain.
A lot of money down the drain.
Sounds like Pennsylvania as well …
So, Ayers was a failure his whole life, in addition to everything else, he could never really make anything work, just like his silly attempts at terrorism?
Must eat away at him.
I wonder if he drinks, or drugs, he must be so frustrated?
When Obama came from NY to Chicago…I keep getting this image that Obama was “sleeping” in Ayers “guest room”.
Davis to Ayers SR as is Obama to Ayers JR.
Does any one know in the first few months after arriving in Chicago where he lived?
When Obama moved to Chicago, he had an apartment waiting for him there! He lived in it for a while before moving in with a white girl!
Mel; Please INPUT INPUT!! LOL (Johnny Five)
Who paid for the place? And who was she?
(Don’t care what race she was.)
I would like to see a larger photo of Ayers stomping the American flag. Is there one available? My poor eyes have the hardest time reading the caption. Plus the photo gives me ideas for a diary brewing in my devious mind.
How could they print a graphic like this?
How could Ayers get away with it?
How could Obama get away with this connection?
What happen to this country?!?
Wow, that photo of the flag is going to play well in Smalltown, USA come November. Especially in those towns that had some of their boys and girls brought home draped in them.
And the democratic “elite morons” have no clue how offensive it is to most Americans, no idea at all how these images will be exploited, despite all the ” Obama isn’t responsible for Ayers (wirght, Rezko, Auchi, et al)” crap they’re trying to float.
You’re in a pipe dream, Obama is toast.
Ayers, and even Pelosi are so ARROGANT, they make rational people gag, specious arrogance mixed with an obtuse narcissism, with no talent or skill to make them even barely tolerable.
Out they go.
I saw it all tonite, I was watching one of those shows on HGTV, and it featured an upper middle class younger couple from the South, and watching the husband, NO WAY he buys into that arrogant affront that is Obama, who with any healthy self respect would?
Race having nothing to do with it, Clinton would impress this man, reach this man.
Obama and the swamp…The early years.
Zulfan Adi was one of the neighborhood kids who teased Obama most mercilessly. He remembers one day when young Obama, a hopelessly upbeat boy who seemed oblivious to the fact that the older kids didn’t want him tagging along, followed a group of Adi’s friends to a nearby swamp.
“They held his hands and feet and said, `One, two, three,’ and threw him in the swamp,” recalled Adi, who still lives in the same house where he grew up. “Luckily he could swim. They only did it to Barry.”
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/chi-0703250359mar25,0,5781642.story?page=3
One of the first words that he learned was Curang…it means cheater.
Hmmmmmmm…sounds like PROJECTION to me and he started at an early age.
My uncle burned his draft card in like ‘69.
But then he went to prison for a year. And he never blew anything up. And no one he knows is running for President. Of course, I’m pretty sure he did vote for Nader in 2000…
http://www.sfweekly.com/2008-04-30/news/party-crashers-08/
That last post was for The Trolls when they come a callin’
Tell them to vote Nader and here’s why!
Yeah, I knew a guy who also went to prison, rather than Vietnam, he was a conscientious objector, but he paid the price, he didn’t run, accepting the consequences of his actions.
Another childhood hero of mine, again, moral courage, he did what he thought was morally right, but he took responsibility for his actions, blaming no one.
He and my sister were part of a volunteer group living together in a Chicago apartment building, ministering to the poverty stricken elderly during the seventies, all young men and women, most college graduates working to make our culture a little better. I was a young kid, I tagged along, too, but they made me work, serving meals, cleaning houses, learning to cook, the usual…
I guess they were the flip side to people like Ayers and Dorhn, come to think about it.
Larry,
When is all this stuff going to go mainstream? And what is with the media that they aren’t reporting it.
On to other news, Obama pulled out a 7 vote “win” in Guam where he was supposed to win in a blowout 11 pts. There’s a recount coming. It may be that he’s way more damaged already than we previously believed.
What a pathetic dick.
That photo needs to be mailed to every single SD and the DNC with a note saying:
This is what it will be plastered on every wall in America next to Obama’s picture and the DNC logo by the RNC. G’ luck if you choose him.
What does it say about Obama that he let this guy and his wife launch his political career with the first fundraising for him?
Now I understand why Michelle Obama was only recently really proud of her country.
Prior to that, she was just really proud of Chicago.
The Kentucky Derby was held today, and won by Big Brown.
Hillary Clinton had backed the filly in the race, Eight Belles. She came in second place. Tragically, Eight Belles collapsed after crossing the finish line and was euthanized on the track.
Drop out now, Hillary! We don’t want to see you collapse and die after crossing the finish line in second place.
Concede now, Senator Clinton. For your health.
Another wonderful Obama supporter. A death threat for a US Senator.
A death threat to a US Senator who is under the protection of the United States Secret Service. They will want to know about this.
Webmaster please forward logs including IP address and timestamps of all postings from Dems to Win to the federal authorities immediately.
Dems to Win will enjoy being interviewed by the Secret Service and should consider getting an attorney and some Depends undergarments.
You should send them some info on KO while you’re at it.
Do you remember the scene in the film “War Games” when Matthew Broderick is stuffing all the printouts from “The WHOPPER” computer into a trash can, after “The WHOPPER” called him on his modem?
I think I stated pretty clearly that I don’t want Senator Clinton to collapse and die.
No threat, real or implied, was intended by me post.
I agree that it is a tragedy that 8 Belles died. If I had my druthers, the sport would be banned as too cruel to the horses. And presidential candidates, both Clinton and Obama, would not name their favorite horses in the race.
Contact the United States Secret Service.
Explain to them your disclaimer.
i am contacting the local fbi about this poster first thing in the morning. i’l download it and fax it. buddy, you haven’t even seen trouble yet. smart mouth!
You’re still a poor excuse for a human being for posting that crap in the first place.
And here I thought it was snark by Demstowin.
just get your sorry pathetic butt off this blog. you have mental problems and taint anything you are near.
Ugly is as ugly does.
No death threat.
The moving sphincter shit, and having shit moved on.
Now THAT was some fine wit! Kudos!
Obama supporters have such class and tact to make fun of the death of an innocent animal and wish for the death of a former First Lady.
That’s all they have.
Their candidate is damaged and they don’t seem to understand why …
I was wondering how long it would take before some asshole would make that anaolgy.
You want to make an example of a horse that suffered in pain with two front ankles that where broken?
For anyone to speak about it this way is shameful. That horse came in second and died trying. Is that the spirt of a living being you would MOCK?
What indifference you show. Makes wonder exactly, for Whom the Eight Belles toll.
A moment of silence for Eight Belles……
Thank you.
Thank you TeakWoodKite.
My sane half was in tears, my heart aches. They are such truly magnificent beings.
I grew up going to Roosevelt Field to watch the trotters and Belmont.
What a week of multi-cultural relativism it has been.
I was reading that this could be due to some unethical breeding practices in the ever insane goal for speed…..I’m no expert…
I was wondering about that too, do they give the horses drugs, steroids, the way they do American athletes?
From what I read there has been a degradation in the gene pool…….Overseas breeders particularly in the UK have been addressing it for a while and are highly critical of American breeding practices…..There are some American Breeders who are adamant about the serious nature of the problem and have been trying to correct it.
I cried. She ran that race with every ounce of heart she could muster. I knew those Obamabrat SOB’s would make sick comments about this.
They have no soul.
These magnificent animals are so overbred. It is a tragedy two years in a row to watch this.
Teaky, (hope you don’t mind), I remember a simular story on the History Channel, about a firehorse at the turn of the century, who severed both hooves on the way to a fire and kept on going. The firefighters had no idea anything had happened til after they got to the fire. Horses. Horses and dogs. Okay, cats. Cats too. Horses, dogs and cats have more integrity, heart and courage than any Obama supporter.
hope you don’t mind
I don’t and I agree with your statement.
Gawd, what a jerk. That’s a breathtakingly stupid thing to say.
Sick in the head Obamaton.
Comment by bluesky | 2008-05-03 21:10:37
I just wrote Jake Tapper regarding his horse comment and the War Room video.
This is one of the paragraphs I wrote:
Jake,
I gotta say, I used to follow you. But the passed two days you have certainly failed as a journalist. First you take the bogus War Room video seriously, and post on it without verifying it. That is in itself is absurd considering the source. And today you use the tragic death of a horse in the Kentucky Derby as an omen for Hillary Clinton’s campaign. Can’t we ust keep the death of Eight Belles as something that is tragic and sad? Why do you insist on using anything, including things from the gutter, to undermined Hillary Clinton’s legitimate momentum?
***************
This is what he replied to me:
Never posted the bogus clip, never made light of the horse’s death.
*******************
So I responded:
I guess we totally disagree. You did post on the bogus War Room clip. I didn’t say posted it. You did not verify the source like you should have. And yes you did make light of the horses death by comparing it to Hillary’s chances in the election. I would say that is making light of a tragic death of a beautiful animal. Like I said Jake try to re-think what you write. There are still a lot of people who take you seriously. I used to, but you have lost me now.
*****************
Here is his email if you want to write him:
Jake.Tapper@abc.com
I sent a quick email.
Here’s what I got back from him the second time:
i dont understand what youre saying. i shouldnt have written about it? i’m responsible when people post horrible comments on my blog? what about when Clinton supporters suggest that i should be killed? Who does that reflect upon?
wow - there’s stupid and then there’s STUPID. You win!
To think that we once thought that the Right-wing had all the scumbags on board. Obamans are worse than the right-wing because they attack, smear and evidently relish the thought of the death of a Democratic Candidate for President.
Glad I changed my affiliation to Independent, I wouldn’t want to be in the same party as scum like this troll.
I am changing after the election. I want the impact of my vote as a Democrat to be felt and then I want to bail on them.
I would love to see No Quarter sponsor a day to defect. One day to see all of us change would make a larger statement than a trickle.
Not me, it’s my party.
Rather send out the posers like dean, pelosi and that awfully pretentious, untalented K$$.
How about a NQ POLITICAL PARTY…..Interesting…..No ?
Ah, I dunno, Obama has those weak girlie like ankles, I think you guys misread it.
heh.
shut the fuxx up you sick little shit. how dare you bring up the tragic death of that horse on here you unfeeling asshole.
For God’s sake Larry, please forward that photo to all the major MSM before Tuesday as well as Obama’s connection to Ayers as director of Challenge.
PLEASE VOTE FOR Larry’s story at Real Clear Politics:
Stomp On This?
Barack Obama may have been eight years old when William “Billy” Ayers was planting bombs at the State Department and the U.S. Capitol, but the Senator was a grown man working in the employ of Mr. Ayers when this picture appeared in August 2001. [AYERS IS STOMPING on the AMERICAN FLAG.]

Thanks, done!
Same as my friend TeakWoodKite - thanks, done.
I went there and voted.
I was pissed that when I clicked to read the article about the Guam vote it took me to The One’s website. That is horse shit. Pardon my francais.
Bee…Tu scibalum equi !…( horse shit ) in latin…..chuckle…..
Bonus latin :….Tu galline stercus !…..( chicken shit )….I salute you and your francais…..
I’ve noticed people spirits get down when there are bumps in the campaign, but I’ve learned recently that’s OK — we get over the bumps and move forward. Hillary has some amazing people on the ground in Indiana and North Carolina and I feel very positive for her! What the pro-Obama folks do on the Internet in my view will have little impact at this time, but that’s OK as it keeps them occupied and is not doing anything really meaningful to help Obama anyway.
In the last few days the attacks from the Obama supporters here have ground down almost to a halt. I am not sure if this trend will continue. The reason I bring this up is prior to the fall-off of attacks, I wrote an open letter to No Quarter. My mindset was affected by the events here at the time. Well anyway, I think people could use a morale boost so here it is:
An open letter: Thank god for No Quarter!
April 29, 2008
I used to be one of the huddled masses of Hillary supporters being spoon-fed propaganda that my savior Obama had arrived. I would watch the MSM “news” channels and was told why Hillary should drop out of the race even though she was winning where it counted if we are choosing who should run against McCain. Yes these are all opinions as is the rest of this letter.
I was depressed to the point of wanting to give up. Then I found No Quarter. Thank god for No Quarter!
I soon realized all was not so dismal as I saw the tireless efforts of the pro-Hillary bloggers and I found major inspiration to carry on. I even find inspiration from the pro-Obama people when I saw the skill in which they are handled by the pro-Hillary folks. I have been participating in the dialogue for a short time and my spirits are soaring!
I’ve read in the past that pro-Obama bloggers were kicking the Hillary supporters when her candidacy was struggling. The problem with kicking someone when they are down is when they do finally get up they are many times stronger than before the kicking began. Something to think about.
I am hoping some of what us pro-Hillary people are saying is beginning to sink in to the pro-Obama people that frequent No Quarter on a regular basis. If/when our words do sink in I hope the pro-Hillary folks on No Quarter will extend their hands in friendship and solidarity to the more reasonable of the Obama supporters. If our thoughts never sink in that is beyond our control of course.
All of the good qualities Obama supporters see in him are in Hillary and then some. I think they will warm up to Hillary given time assuming Obama himself guides them to do so. Hillary believes in redemption so I urge her supporters to as well in their behavior towards the Obama supporters. It is troubling to me I have not seen Obama say he will campaign for Hillary if he loses. If he has said he would help her please by all means let me know.
I think many Obama supporters are beginning to see the writing on the wall as the Wright PR campaign sinks Obama’s candidacy. Even Chris Matthews is hedging as I recall he recently stated Wright is Obama’s “Iraq.”
If I am wrong and Obama gets the nomination out of conscience and wanting to protect my family and community I would have to break away from voting for a Democrat or I would write in Hillary. My decision would not be based on bitterness and disappointment but on logic. I hope everyone makes their decision based on logic and not anger and other negative emotions.
I hope what I have written will serve to offer a future at No Quarter where previously bitter foes can at least start to be a bit more civil towards one another.
For now I expect people to continue in the seemingly endless verbal fist-to-cuffs. Seemingly endless because soon someone will drop out of the race.
There is no shame in being mistaken about something you previously believed in. This is one way in which one’s character grows. If you are an Obama supporter and want to join us Hillary folks sooner as opposed to later I am sure we won’t turn you away. Maybe at least hedge your bets a little and try to be less combative? I’ll try on my end to listen better if you do so.
By the way Obama supporters please feel free to try and convince me I am mistaken in my beliefs. And since no one has a crystal ball we’ll just have to wait and see who is right in the end.
Thanks to all my new friends here at No Quarter as you have rescued my aching soul from torment! And special thanks to Larry and SusanUnPC for providing my most favorite blog! And you blog authors are all incredible!
I’ll drink to that! Thank goodness for No Quarter.
I agree with you so much Garlic Nosed Guitarist. The day to day irrationality of the Obama supporters is more than I can take. No Quarter and Larry Johnson have supplied a sanctuary of all Hillary supporters. My sanity thanks you.
Next week my wife and I are invited to a party given by a person who went to law school with Obama and is a big time fund raiser for him. I am doing this for my wife’s career and I promised to control my temper but I don’t know if I can. If I am hit up for money I may just lose it.
My sanity says your quite welcome.
As far as the party goes, if it was me and I am not judging, but if it was me I would not attend and I would try to convince my wife that her values might trump the career aspect. I mean no disrespect to you or your spouse.
Anyway, glad you liked my post.
Great letter! Thanks and ditto to No Quarter. As for writing Hillary in, do you know about: http://www.writehillaryin.com
Go there and leave your email address for further contact. It’s great to meet others who will ONLY vote their conscience. Some “expert” on Fox tonight claimed DNC/SuperD’s cannot go against bo because the party can’t afford to lose the black vote and the state of MI. How’s that for a fallacy?
As if MI would ever go to bo after he spent months blocking their primary votes. To illustrate this, latest polls show Hillary way ahead of McCaine in FLA and bo way behind him. (Like we couldn’t expect that.) So much for MI, bo-bo. As for the national black vote, I’m really expecting a shift in % of black vote for bo- not a tide turning, but a % shift, because:
1. Many black voters are actual Christians (you know the real kind) and they are beyond fed up with rev wrong’s version of church.
2. Uppity says black media is also fed up with bo - because he assumes they’ll support them and with all his funds, doesn’t bother to advertise with them.
Add to these facts v fantasies the building trend of Hillary voters who are polled as a No Vote or Repub vote is picked over her. From a month ago until this week, HIllary voters rejecting other Dem nominee has risen to over 40%. Surely that statistic is larger than all AA in US (think total AA is about 16%).
Also like your statement about welcoming obama supporters - we already know the ayres fringe won’t come - but many (youth espec.) have been bamboozled into believing that empty suit contains their ideals - when we all see that, actually, Hillary does. She just doesn’t talk their talk or come in the media darling MSM bill of goods they were sold. If they’re too gone on KoolAid, they’ll probably just stay in and nurse their wounds. Most of the rest might join us in a really enthusiastic tromp on McCaine*
*please don’t turn me into the SS. I don’t mean that literally.
The SDs don’t care about that nonsense. The MSM have marching orders to keep our morale down, so they make up negative bullshit.
The way I look at it, we are at verbal war for the soul of our nation, and our very freedoms and liberties. I tune out the MSM now.
I am very optimistic about Hillary and want to plant the seed of openness to Obama supporters now.
Hmmmmm……….When did the city of Detroit become the state of Michigan ?…….Reminds me of PA. which is greater than the city of Philadelphia…….Sheeeeeeesh !
Good GRAVY, YES!! Praise Allah, Yaweh, and the Spaghetti Monster for NO QUARTER! The putatively “progressive” sites like, well, never mind, they’re sewers anyway nowadays, are absolutely mindless. If you don’t worship the savior, you aren’t welcome. Just as well, the quality of discourse at these venues is pathetic on a good day.
This blog is generally very open to respectful Obama supporters — no one is censored. I don’t go to those “Messiah or we’ll deny ya” blogs. Cool, I just thought of that.
In addition, I think there’s plenty of evidence showing that they are actually friends and have been for many years. The company you keep…
Well done Larry.
the one oversight everyone is taking is Obama was a Political science major at Columbia!
Everyone I know who took Political Science covered the Weather Underground in school and knew of their doings.
What is also strange is while Obama was in NYC taking these courses, Bill Ayers adn Bernadine Dohrn were there as well.
It was also reported Obama would spend time at Cooper Union for socialist conferences at Cooper Union when living in NYC, any bets he met Bill Ayers there, a place Ayers couldn’t resist?
Tend to think bo met ayres thru mobama, who worked with Ayres partner in crime, now wife - because, early on, those two worked together.
Though there’s still many blanks to fill in, suspect mobama is the brains behind this operation. See about her Princeton thesis here and you’ll get the pix:
“Brains behind Barama”
http://unityindiversity-spiritedpolitics.blogspot.com
Mobama, kind of like an Angela Davis thing?
Oh, my goodness.
Oh brother…a political science major!! you really have to be careful of those people. what do you do all day, sit around trying to connect dots that don’t fit?
Do you even bother to read comments before you jump in and make a fool of yourself? Read it again dear and maybe you’ll beat a red-faced retreat to somewhere your intellect will feel most comfortable.
We aren’t all highly-educated people here, but most of us are capable of reading comprehension which obviously from you silly posts, you are not.
Sorry to disappoint you, but a simple google finds out many things about Obama, but unfortunately there are voters as yourself who believe anything they hear from the PROFIT and do not check out the person they vote for!
Guess going to ask Axelrod makes life easier for you ROBAMATRONS than actually doing soem homework, or you get bored of that because it interferes with your studies?
Well sorry for that, since obviously you do not know how to read, by your response!
you must have graduated from the school of know nothings.
This is what scares me: George Packer says he tried to resist Bill Ayers’ charms but utlimately succumbed, and for that reason we shouldn’t give Obama a hard time about it.
Well I hear Achmed Chalabi, Achmedinajad are quite charming one-on-one. It’s OK if Packer can’t resist their charms, but the president of the U.S. should be able to.
Can we give Obama a New Yorker staff writer position instead?
Bill Ayers, an unrepentant terrorist with wealthy family connections, had co-founded the Chicago Foundation and named Obama as the Director of said entity.
Do you have a reference for ths claim?
Just a little effort is required. Google your quote.
go do your own homework, lazy.
It’s not my responsibility to confirm a claim made by another person.
You know Ayers is trying to look cool in that photo. He only looks wimpy. Look how he holds his arms up. He thinks he looks tough. LOL! He looks like a drunk picking a figh in a bar or something. All ego no sense. He looks like a joke. And Barry ate from this trough? Barry just gets lamer and lamer every day.
Looks like he has that middle aged beer belly! Ha!
He looks silly and horribly immature - what a wimp.
Ehemmmm……To borrow from John Bright……
” He is a self made man , and worships his creator……”
Ayers lives in a universe of one…….
Look closely at Ayers photo… that, my friend, is a coward. Period.
He looks weak and ineffectual because he’s a self-absorbed little rich boy that never grew up. I’d pay money to have his ass shipped to Iraq to take the place of any soldier that’s been redeployed over and over again, even with PTSD or injuries.
Making him, of course, George Bush, jr.
And I agree, Ayers looks pathetic, didn’t age well at all.
But this information is pertinent, as this sixties archaeological dig we are on (quick, bring the brush, someone wipe off Ayers mind) applies to the problems we are fighting, today.
But it is fascinating, I almost feel like I’m there, given some of the recollections I’m reading.
It’s different, reading it as an adult, as opposed to as a child.
(I was an early reader, I read everything I could get my hands on, as a kid, even a little kid. I remember the LIFE magazine cover with Calley, my Mom subscribed to every periodical of the time. Again, my sister would sit me down, as child, and explain what Calley did, say, and why his actions were horrific, and we’d look at the pictures, together…)
Larry wrote about it the other day and there are links:
http://noquarterusa.net/blog/2008/04/26/why-is-obama-hiding-the-truth-about-william-ayers-follow-the-money/
Good heavens. I go to work for a few hours and look what I missed!
What an image. I agree that the MSM has to look at all these fantastic posts Larry, Susan and Uppity have done on the Ayers and Obama connection. Besides cross-posting it everywhere and sending it to news stations, is there another way?
Is it possible that the MSM don’t give a rat’s ass about security issues and only want to play American Idol with Kool Aid and his gang?
I’m leaving on a long awaited 5 day vacation with my family tomorrow. Was looking forward to tuning out the world; now I’m planning to bring my laptop so I won’t miss any postings.
Mary Jo, has anyone else asked about your name? Please comment.
About getting all this out FAST. Here’s an idea I haven’t time to fit in - am completing a mass mailing with personal cover letter to all uncommitted SD’s and DNC.
Whoever reads this, please send Larry’s post with the Ayres quotes and picture to ALL UNIVERSITY NEWSPAPER EDITORS IN NC AND IND.
ALSO send to IndyStar, IND biggest paper, Indianapolis based (biggest IND city). They have, I think, 3 websites, they endorsed Hillary and they also have very active online comment activity. Believe it is broadly read.
AND then there’s the websites for major HUB NC papers, in Charlotte and other big towns. OUR BIGGEST TROUBLE, really, is the suburban voters everywhere. I’m so sick of hearing them called “educated voters”. Fox slipped last week and actually called them TV VOTERS. Wow, did they slide past that inner circle slip/true description fast!
But illiterate as the so-called educated voters are, they do sometimes see the papers as well as MSM. And I don’t think ALL US papers are yet sold out to major media corporations.
Anyway a mass DROP THE AYRES BOMB email deluge to college and city/suburb papers in voting states couldn’t do any harm. So many sites now have some sort of ireport email address.
All this considered, Mary Jo, couldn’t you just delay your vacation to work on the above a few days?
JMK,
My name is pretty obvious, yes?
And I’ll be happy to send as many of these that I can from my vacation spot.
Information bombs are the only explosives I’m comfortable with, so I think this is a good idea.
But why university newspaper editors? Won’t this info just whet the appetite of the college kids for whom Obama is their imaginary hip black friend?
I like your moniker MJ…….don’t forget the papers in NC. Raleigh I think is the observer…..Still have Wright in the papers and that is a good thing for Clinton….
And Taters post about moral courage and the heros of Mi Lai should be sent, too…
teakwoodkite, here is the link for your info from earlier, it needs to be copied and pasted, link won’t work on here!
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/us_elections/article3582291.ece
Mel…Thanks!
I owe you one.
No problem Teak, long story, good reads..lol
you people have no shame
————–
should we start with photos of Hillary kissing Arafat’s wife?
There are a million of these tangential connections to all the candidates
The only connection here is Larry Johnson and his best bud Joe Wlson and whatever they were promised by the Clinton’s should they get elected
Too bad becuase
Hillary will NEVER be POTUS - if she somehow manipulates this nomination she cannot win without an ehtusiastic African American and youn vote and that is NOT going to happen
and if she somehow did become President - she would renege on whatever promises she gave the loyal Mr Johnson/Wilson and company anyway
How about some real issues–
You spent too much time in the wrong “company”
Ummm we are just taking a break from Rev Wright and Rezko, Auchi and Alsammarea, awaiting to see if Rezko made a deal to spill the beans on monday!
Fact is, Hillary could be POTUS, Obama will never be POTUS.
Sorry to bust your kool aide high, but that is life when the self proclaimed messiah turns out to be nothing more than a cheap politician in an empty suit!
Alison, is it? In reply to your post, and responding, I hope to each of your expressed concerns:
1. It’s true we have no shame. We have nothing to be ashamed of - like phony IND ballots, fraudulent caucuses, hacking websites, writing obscene threatening posts, or dubbing in fake videos, etc -We are, instead, Hillary supporters who believe in democracy- something you may learn more about someday.
2.Regarding ‘tangential issues’: let’s see, obama knew rezko very well since 1990; obama’s wife worked with ayres wife and then he went to work for ayres family-connected firm and then went to work for ayres foundation and then went to work for Woods foundation with ayres and then announced his political run at ayres home and then moved into mansion on property shared by rezko …. this isn’t tangential. IT’S STRING THEORY.
3. Larry, we love you anyway - but, gee, no one told us, your biggest fans, that you’re being bribed to write all this. Please, for helping out - will you share the wealth? Can’t wait to see what you’re getting! Maybe can you get us all on a private White House tour? We promise we will dress appropriately and we won’t wear black suits or Messiah t-shirts.
4.Don’t know quite how to break it to you, Alison. While we all agree that our AA friends and youn(g?) people are terribly important, these are actually not the only voters in America. Even your hero knows, there are tons of ‘bitter’ small town, middle class Americans just like us.
5. Character is a REAL issue. In fact, it is the central issue. Most grown-ups have learned that from living through 7 years of george bush. Frustrating, we know, but someday you’ll understand. We’re just trying not to repeat a lesson well learned.
6. Although you sound like an obama supporter, doesn’t sound like you’ve been through ‘the training’ - where obama volunteers are taught to “avoid discussing any issues and instead just share how he makes you feel.”If you want to really get into the issues, go to http://www.hillaryclinton.com where you will find her very well thought through and positive plans.
7. As for being ‘wrong’ that’s already so well covered by obama’s favorite minister, there’s no need for anyone else to go down that road.
Lastly, don’t ever go to uppity’s site, because she will not accept emails full of misspellings,as yours was.
Great comment, jmk. I like the way you laid out your reasoning. Your point about character is especially important.
Stick a sock in it — Troll! Alison — probably another teen boy Obamabot who is using the standard Axlerod script.
The truth hurts — your guy is a waste — a huge waste of resources. Everything you THINK you know about him is a lie. So shut up and read through the archives of this website — or Taylor Marsh’s website — and then return and have a grown up conversation.
Sometimes, it’s best to simply mock the stupid trolls for the pretentious wannabe no talents with low IQ’s they really are.
They aren’t interested in reasoned discussion.
Or better yet, YOU reason with them, because, you can, and you have class, and it is best to TRY to keep the discussion rational, and others can mock them, because, well, they’re stupid trolls, failing again, completely obtuse to the truth about their situation, as only a republican, or Obama troll can be…
If Yasser Arafat had held a fundraiser for her to kick off her political career, you might have a point. Until then, find your rock and crawl back under.
The Clinton’s tried really really hard to broker peace between the Israelis, and the Palestinians.
Live and learn…
Meaning peace is still the objective, but the system, and the understanding of behavioral motivations, has emerged.
A photo of Hillary meeting a political figure’s wife… yeah.. that REALLY equates with working for a domestic terrorist (an unrepentent one), and all the other assorted scumbags Obama calls friends.
Hey.. Obama’s bus just pulled up outside, don’t you need to get under it?
Allison
“How about some real issues–”
Since when are hope and change real issues. Barky has no substance he’s just a rerun of Deval Patrick who’s show will not be renewed.
So you have to go back that far to find something on Hillary that equates to the Barak and Michelle Obama’s relationship to known terrorists?
But then that’s the problem with most of Obama’s supporters, they weren’t around back then.
Obama put out an email blaming the Democrat’s loss of congress in 1994 on the Clintons. What he didn’t tell you was that ABSCAM, the House Banking Scandal, and Tip O’Neill’s refusal to hold hearing on them were responsible for those losses. Or the mood of the country after the Rodney King riots and the affect they had on welfare reform.
I’ll bet sitting there at your little keyboard you thought you made some really great points. Sorry alison but they are old, tired and rather silly.
Hillary didn’t work with Arafat’s wife, did she?
And just like Hillary supporters Larry Johnson and Joe Wilson and a host of others support her because they believe in her, we will condescend to accept that Obama supporters support him because they believe in him too.
Isn’t it funny how Joe Wilson, the left’s hero for taking on George W. Bush, is now reviled by so many on the left because he as the audacity to believe that Hillary Clinton would be a better president. You people are really rather sad when all is said and done. You hate Hillary and Bill Clinton worse that the rabid Right-Wing and are damn proud of it.
You may be for Obama toots, but you sure as hell ain’t for Democracy, liberal ideals, or a Big Tent Democratic Party. Because even if she doesn’t have the AA vote and the youth vote, Obama doesn’t have the majority of women’s vote and the Senior vote, and the working class vote. Try winning a Democratic election without them.
Quit spouting talking points and drivel and try educating yourself. Your silliness should disqualify you from any serious discussion. However NQ is kind enough to allow you to make as big a fool of yourself as you like. And you took full advantage of it.
Alisonnn……Qualem muleirculam ! Morologus es ! Tum podem extulit horridulum !……All the way back to GAZA …..Noli me vocare, ego te vocabo
hey alison, your desperation actually made me laugh. thanks! hehehe
Somebody swat that bug on my head.
Somebody swat that bug flying around above my head.
I knew Ayers in ‘69 in Ann Arbor [and Diana Oughton who became a 'splodin' dude a year later]. Back then, Ayers was a conceited manipulative obnoxious arrogant self-absorbed p.o.s. Diana was a cloud-cuckoo idealist.
The wrong person died in that townhouse explosion.
And Barack/Michelle [Robinson] Obama both interned and later worked at Sidley Austin, the brown shoe law firm where Bernardine Dohrn was a paralegal with a Harvard degree [felons don't pass the bar, even in Illinois---they just get professorships and tenure!]
And someone should figure out how Kathy Boudin got a RHODES SCHOLARSHIP after getting out of jail as a felon. Can you imagine any one else but criminals like Boudin & George Soros [in the UK for financial crimes] getting away with this? [Well, there are those two female terrorists Bill Clinton pardoned...]
Foxx, you don’t need to be a weatherman……
There are rich & powerful interests trying to destroy America and they aren’t Republicans.
Yes, they are republicans, too, be honest.
In fact, more republicans than democrats, if you look at the damage this recent crew of horseshit spew on the nation, including Iraq.
Cheney did more with 9.11 than Ayers and Dohrn ever did with a bomb, using that ONE incident to screw up, nationally, the obtuse fuck he is, taking the nation to war, and trying to rewrite the Constitution (remember 4th branch?)and ordering Plame outed?
And what about Marc Grossman, among other republicans, telling the Turkish PAC about Brewster Jennings, for, what, 25, 000?
He sold out the CIA for pocket change, do you understand the implications?
Hastert, too, and Eric Edelman, Sybil Edmonds girls on film, the porn stars of the US government, selling state secrets, say, for a lil extra cash…
What happens when there are too many politicians like them, you know?
Don’t lie.
I was thinking they could date George Clooney, next, isn’t he attracted to this personality type?
The they could attend an Obama fundraiser, together…
michelle and barack h. obama do not love their country. and they despise those who adhere to religious doctrines, including the black pastor obama threw under the campaign bus, reverend jeremiah wright of the “god damn america” church in inner city chicago.
They love their country. They just hate the people in it.
” Barry here is my proposal for how we can fit all those bitter CRACKERS into Utah……”
Meeeeeeeeechelle to Barry…….chuckle……
Hillary will NEVER be POTUS - if she somehow manipulates this nomination she cannot win without an ehtusiastic African American and youn vote and that is NOT going to happen
________________________________________________
You have to smoke better weed. The dirt weed is fuzzing up your brain.
I am of the opinion that Obama will never be POTUS.
He would not have the support of Reagan Democrats.
I’m no Reagan Democrat. I’m a Bluedog/Jacksonian Democrat, and I won’t be voting for him.
i am a registered independent and i’ll never vote for obama.
Patti….ID PERFECTUM MANET DUM CONFECTUM ERIT……Obesa cantavit….
chuckle….( It aint over until it’s over !…………………and the fat lady sings ! )
IN - Clinton will win
NC - Clinton will win
She thinks they will change the rules in November to caucus … hahahahahahahhaha
Credo Quia Absurdum Est ! = ( I Believe it because it is absurd ! )
Meeeeeeeeechelle’s new credo………No ?
Fox News-Gerado @ Large says HRC will do about 3-4 pts better than the polls say based on the polls in the previous states..
Someone mentioned that Obama made his announcement for his Senate seat from Ayres doorstep. May want to check it out.
on the Taylor Marsh blog they are going to investigate missing ballots in the Guam Caucuses 8,000 were sent out 4500 were counted 500 were damaged? Anyone hear anything about this?
Only 4500 people voted. Why would they have 8000 ballots. I haven’t heard about it and I really don’t care anymore. Sick of this process they call democracy.
Kill the most honest candidate and praise the liar, no thanks! I have had enough.
The person in charge of elections in Guam has said she won’t certify the vote until they figure out what happened to those missing 4000 plus ballots that were distributed and take a look at the 500 spoiled ballots.
Id imperfectum manet dum confectum erit…..
( I aint over till it’s over…)
Thank God he had a job and they were trying to help the schools.
Wow! I am so not in to this, sick and tire of it all. However, I love who Barack is today!
God bless he and his family!
him, god bless him, the accusative case, object of the verb bless.
I wonder if she actually can tell us who Barack is Today?
20 year supporter of a church that screams hate and then when the right Wright reverend disses Obaby, throws him overboard ….
Yeah, that’s the kind of guy I want running my country … NOT
Ehemmmm…..Angelene…..Would that be the marxist militant anti-semetic Racist baby Jesus blessing Barry and his beknighted family…..Hmmmmm…
if you are so sick and tired, go to daily kos and feast there with the koolaid swinging obmabots. you’ll be right at home.
Just curious- wonder if enrollment will go down at that school where Ayer’s teaches now that parents the world over know the school has a terrorist teacher??? Just asking- I would have pulled my kid out of that school the very next day and demanded a refund!
(and trolls- if I am paying for the school, you better bet my child would have been home the very next day- not kidding! If a child of mine wanted to stay there, they would have to pay for it themselves.Course, non issue here- all my kids sing “God BLESS America- and mean it.))
I think Ayers could be …..ehemmm……Asked to take a sabbatical……
If funding becomes an issue his tenure could be……tenuous……No ?
At first I thought I was on a GOP smear site. Imagine my surprise. After looking over this crap, I now know where Blumenthal gets his info from.
In case you didn’t notice (didn’t see it on the site), the republicans tried this guilt by association crap in Louisiana (which included images of Rev. Wright no less) and it did NOT work. They lost a seat yesterday that has gone to the GOP for the last 33 years! You may not have noticed (or simply don’t want to talk about that fact - I’ve noticed how you people don’t like to do too much of that), but the super delegates surely did.
The super delegates know that HRC and her supporters are putting out nothing but crap in an effort to smear the man who will be the democratic nominee, for example, throwing out bs that Obama moved in with a white woman (I wonder which segment of the population you’re trying to reach with that lie). This is all pretty pathetic. If this is what you have stoop to in order for HRC to steal the nomination, how do you expect her to win the GE? Do you think Obama supporters will just fall in line behind HRC after she, her campaign, and her supporters pull crap like this?
Hopefully, all of this will backfire on HRC when she goes back to the Senate and she loses her seat when it comes up for re-election. Nonetheless, keep up the good work. Every smear tactic she and her campaign (and supporters) uses pushes her one step closer to being even more useless in the Senate than she already is and forcing her into an early retirement.
Most of the comments here reflect some sort of alternate universe where reality has been turned upside down on its head! I must now leave bizarro world and return to reality. ***Poof***
Well if that is what “Hope” looks like nowadays, I’ll take experience and integrity. I notice the nasty-ass trolls come out whenever Obama tanks.
“Hope2008″ thinks we look like a GOP smear site? Pffffft.. if Obama manages to squeak out the nomination, the GOP will make places like these, that simply show the truth about Obama, look like Sesame Street.
It’s not “guilt by association” it just staggeringly bad judgment and questionable character. Guess the HopeyMcDopey people are freaking out because they know they’d be seeing a lot more of Ayers stomping on that flag if Obama gets into the GE, and they’re scared shitless. It’s not as if Ayers was Obama’s chiropractor or newspaper delivery boy. That Obama cult thing is getting on my last nerve — they are positively delusional.
And after seeing Obama Nation in action, I realize David Horowitz is not as crazy as he seems.
Obsessive? yes. Deluded? No.
And by way of perverse outcomes …
Uniters are casebook studies in the Law of Unintended Consequences.
Barry has found a way to unite Daly’s Political Machine, Ayers and his trust fund anarchist wannabes, Mid-east Bankrollers,Black panthers, Wright and his Black Suprematists, Nation of Islam, Leftist Power Brokers, Republicans, Independents, Rappers….etc….With a shot of kennedys and Pelosi……Dean the UBERPUTZ and DONNIDIOT on the side……Somebody call the call center in GAZA…..Barry’s numbers are slipping……
Actually the story of the white woman is Barry’s own story. If I recall his story correctly, he said she had wished she were black.
But don’t let any facts get in your way. You might actually figure it all out and then it won’t be swoony-fun anymore.
Barack Obama will never be president. You see, Republicans vote in November too. I know, I know, it’s inconvenient, but it’s how it is. And then there us HRC supporters would would vote for Dracula before we would let Barry set race relations and gender relations back to 68 again. You know, “Recreate 68″? There are quite a few of us in case you haven’t noticed. YOu need us and you can’t have us. That’s final.
Congratulations on giving us the Old Man for four years. Adults have dealt with radicals and children before in Presidential elections (See “McGovern, Dukakis”), and the outcome is always the same. This is because Adults don’t let entranced children, old hippies still on the bong, and radicals pick Presidents. If you don’t find another rap star to fall in love with in four years, we might actually put a sane Democrat in the Presidency. By then you will at least be four years older and smarter. I do hope you are not a woman. Obama is not good for your future. But not to worry, he will be defeated by adult white women who recognize a sexism problem when they see one, working class men, Italians, Jews, Irish, Gays and Lesbians, Catholics, Florida, Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania, who will all swing Republican thanks to Barry and you crackpots who insulted them all.
But the rallies were fun right? I know you aren’t “poofed” yet. xo.
Ehemmmm…….The Cracker Girlfriend with Mandingo Fantasies is probably another invention of Barry’s…..Like Food Stamps his mommy recieved in Indonesia…..How’s that for an alternative universe ?
Hey gang, how funny is THIS?
i’ll keep this simple for you. stfu!
Okay.. I just have to add… I’m not usually on here late at night.. so do all the Obama trolls get drunk and come here to post on Saturday nights? Is this the troll equivalent of the drunk dial? Or are they getting more and more desperate because he’s tanking so badly?
The trolls should name a designated commenter when they go on these drinking binges, they’re starting to all sound like Andrew Sullivan tonight.
The trolls hit NQ and TM when snObama is tanking very badly. I expect that it is the same few people — different names. The late nite/early morning timing of the trolls suggests they might be the Gaza bunch — the ones who do the calling for snObama???????????
Their next trick is to try to put this website out of service. These bums can’t handle the truth about Obama.
The troll bait follows certain patterns — “where’s the proof” — these bat shit crazies jump in and demand links — the lazy sods apparently have no working knowledge of google or other search engines.
Oh and then the “female” trolls get snotty — and complain about all the hateful things we say about snObama. These “females” can’t handle the truth.
Axlerod is really throwing money away by employing trolls — because these bat shit crazy jerks are merely hardening the resolve of a majority of Pro-Hillary voters to NEVER EVER vote for Obama.
One class of Obama trolls — the jerks who tell us to face facts that Obama will be the dem nominee and we are going to have to rally behind this piece of shit. No way will that happen — many here have said that NO way will their vote go to Obama.
Trolls thats what happens when Obama makes it very clear that he hates large segments of the population — there aren’t a whole lot of votes left who will vote for the jerk.
Even when they’re not the same people, they seem to share one mind.
I really try not to be too abrasive, but sometimes I’d rather piss off a repeat offender, try to penetrate those very.thick.heads, then err on the side of caution.
They depend on disguising their IP numbers, (in troll land, they like to pretend this is still effective, their ace in the hole) but they really NEED to learn it’s not a defense, at all. I try to make the point if they understood anything about art , or music, they would know they have a signature style, no matter how mediocre. They don’t get it.
And notice they never ever improve the level of their trolls, at all?
Someone mentioned a GAZA call center for Obama, and I wonder, sometimes, if some of these trolls aren’t third world, the thinking, the level of reasoning is so stunted, I think no way can this person be Western educated.
But then I think of guys like Axelrod, Rove, Ayers, or Kristol, or even Rush Limbaugh, and his listeners, and I think, well, I guess they have a lot in common with groups like Hamas, stunted, delusional, simplistic, magical thinking, trying so hard ot make others fear and respect them, but everybody just laughs at their stupidity…
They also don’t understand their words and methods reveal much about themselves. Their tact shows they’re scared, and a frightened person can be gamed, very very easily. Essentially, they’ve chosen to engage in psy ops, by trolling, and they’re not trained, they’re not even smart.
Look at the guy who flits about here like a bee, Buzzy.
Ever see the MASH episode with five o clock charlie?
NQ’s equivalent is Buzzy the Bee…
I think trolls engage in propaganda exercises the equivalent of an enemy of state. And I understand it is a function of a free press, this country can only succeed if it’s people are invulnerable to propaganda, period.
What does it mean to be an American, what are our values? Are we the three servicemen who stood up to Calley, or Axelrod, Rove and Obama?
If a PR firm tries to sell us an Obama, or a Bush, and they corrupt the press, et al, then the people of this country have to be enabled to see through it, not allow themselves to be treated like a bunch of stupid rubes, swayed by American propagandists less talented than the old Soviet TASS writers, propagated by a bunch of stupid frat boys, with too much money, and apparently, no brains and or creativity.
They’re nothing special…
I’m beginning to sound like an Obama-bot because my posts and comments are becoming exceedingly agressive and hate filled. I cannot stand Obama and I’m near apoplexy trying to figure out why the Democratic Party leaders want to push an inexperienced, anti-American, racist, and weak candidate forward. Do they think a 50 state sweep will be good for the Party in some way?
I mean what the hell do they mean when they talk about Democrats not needing the white working class vote? Do they understand that women have made up the majority of Democratic voters for years and that most of us won’t vote for the fraud?
I just don’t understand how a man with a 20 year membership in a racist, anti-American and anti-Semitic church, a man with close ties and a personal relationship to a flag-stomping terrorist, and a man who talks about typical white people clinging to guns and bibles and bigotry — I don’t understand how this man wasn’t laughed out of the nomination race a long, long time ago.
Ugh.
Ehemmm……CRACKER has achieved a new definition in this primary….
A CRACKER is anyone included in Uppity’s evolving list of groups that Barry has offended in his campaign for UNITY…..Join the UNDER THE BUS CROWD……If you put BITTER in front of CRACKER…( well than that implies the traditional…..meaning.)…..my opinion is stated with tongue firmly planted in cheek……chuckle…..
That pic of ayers is certainly interesting. Im no one eyed patriot & dont care about flags but I wouldnt go stomping on one -anyone. It is silly & maybe forgiveable in a teen but a 50 year old?
Hope you can get it out but Ayers s not close enough to Obama for most. Altogether an excellent dredging up .Even I am a bit shocked & Im not American!
Ayers is begging to be regarded as despicable. Someone please find a law so someone can take Ayers into a room and only they come out. This horrible person makes Jeremiah Wright look like Mother Goose.
Susan:
I’m going to post this image on my blog, giving you credit, of course!
I love this site. Thanks so much for everything. And to the majority of posters here, you guys are fierce!
That this is a promo photo says it all.
The blogs and media who linked a Hillary supporter with an unvetted doctored video and spurred accusations of racism will not hold the messiah’s feet to the fire for his supporter and friends true anti-american ties.
The republicans will, but the dems won’t.
They are obsessed with finding a speck of dirt on Hillary when there is a mountain of Trash covering every part of obama that remains largely ignored.
sheesh.
I do hope somebody sent that Ayers stomping the flag shot to FOX and ABC. You won’t see it on CNNObama. They are far too busy seasoning him for the Republican swiftboats.
New York Daily News has a story on Barry and his Bomber Buddy Ayers….
I can’t believe that people like you really think that it’s OK to hold people responsible for other people’s actions (or words). With your logic, NO ONE is worthy of becoming president who simply KNOWS someone, somewhere, who has done something wrong.
Obama serves on the board of a charity organization (YES A CHARITY) with Ayers and now folks want to label him an “Ayers Sympathizer.”
The reason the media hasn’t picked up the story (except for a bunch of right wing hacks and George “The Clinton Kid” Stephanopolis) is because it is an insult to the American people’s intelligence.
I feel sorry for folks who dislike Obama so much, they are willing to bash him for what OTHERS have done. You have nothing else on him. Soon, I expect a story about how Obama is “unelectable” because he refused to buy a box of girl scout cookies.
You haters are so funny.
Quinn…..When running for Political Office especially POTUS the political family of a candidate is RELEVANT !
” ….It is only when it is believed that I could have acted otherwise that I am held to be morally responsible for what I have done. For a man is not thought to be morally responsible for an action that is not in his power to avoid….” Alfred J. Ayer. Freedom and Necessity. Polemic No. 5 1946
Obama is held to be MORALLY RESPONSIBLE for his POLITICAL FAMILY….
Your argument did’nt work in Nuremburg either….
Quinn,
We believe in holding people responsible for THEIR ACTIONS. We hold Barack responsible for choosing to associate with a man who was a known terrorist. Ayers is responsible for the bombings. Obama is responsible for working for and accepting money from Ayers. Got it?
The Clinton Kid? Jesus Christ, are YOU out of date. Steph can’t stand his former bosses. Get the hell up to speed.
are you really that naive or you just desperately need the money?
“Haters” I love how that word is tossed around by Obama followers anytime someone points out his problems.
Hate Obama? Nope. I can just think of about 1,000 more qualified and decent people who I’d want running for POTUS on the Dem ticket.
None of Obama’s followers will admit that they would not befriend a domestic terrorist, or a racist pastor.
I’ve quit jobs over smaller issues than what Ayers and Wright are involved in. I quit a medical device company and job I loved when I found out they were doing very cruel animal testing. I left another job when I found out the owner’s (underground) biz was producing pornography. Took me all of a few hours to disassociate myself from those people.
And even beyond the integrity issue… The Obama followers are delusional to think that Americans are going to vote for someone with a shady past and shadier connections to be President. Do you think the Unity Pony is going to sprinkle faerie dust all over Obama’s past and associates and make them invisible to the GOP and the Swiftboaters? Shit.. if he got the nod he will go down in history with even less votes than McGovern.
Why and when did Barry Soetoro become Barack Obama?
I know this game. Its called six degrees to Barack Obama.
I don’t know if this sight is being run by a Hillary supporter or a rebpulican but your true motivation is showing. Not the fear that Obama is a communist or socialist or whatever other crazy label your put on him but that he a a decent human being that will wipe both HRC and McCain out in the election.
OPERATIONS CHAOS IS TRULY ABOUND.
No, the message here is that a vote for Barack H. Obama is a guranteed victory of historic proporations for John McCain in November.
And apparently, Obama supporters know that too because you are all here dripping sweat on this pro-Clinton blog ….
Chazzzz…..Stutorum Calami Carbones Moenia Chartae !
( Chalk is the pen of fools , walls their paper…= You sir are fool and what you write is stupid and fit only for grafitti….IN GAZA !……)
First off, Ayers didn’t found the Annenberg Foundation, Walter Annenberg did 1989. The Chicago Challenge came from that. You really have to stretch the truth beyond snapping to contend that, because they both served on the board together, that Obama was “in the employ” of Ayers. Why don’t you try writing something based on facts instead of this fiction? Oh, that’s right, fact based doesn’t come up with the conclusion you want.
It’s not the ANNNENBERG FOUNDATION air head … its the ANNENBERG CHALLENGE …. try to at least appear to understand …..

Notice how the coward does his stomp dance on our flag in an alley where any passerby could only get the briefest glimpse of what was going on.
Sneaky bomber, sneaky dancer, conceited professor, privileged rich kid whose father bought him a life after he tried to end so many others.
What good has he ever done, for anyone?

Americans want the truth in full brought to light regarding Barack’s work as Chairman of the Committee.
Joseph Kennedy might have been possible to buy off a spot for John Kennedy from Chicago in 1960. But this is 2008 and we are all on the internet investigating this matter. Why is the University of Illinois afraid to give up the records regarding the Chicago Annenberg Challenge Foundation? Or has the Democratic Party paid them off? One more time…people of power hurting the American people.

“Oh, I just hangout with someone who was responsible for killing Jews during the Holocaust…I mean its no big deal I wasn’t even alive when over 6 million people died…who cares?!”
An extreme example…yes. However, would you befriend someone who told you, “I’m glad I killed those Jews…and to be honest we didn’t do enough. We should have taken their Holy Land too!”
And one last thing…whatever happend to those guys who bombed Oklahoma City? I can’t remember what happened to them…ah, they’re probably living “underground.” (I AM BEING SARCASTIC)
games…
You are the last……
