ann, you are not paying attention. you likely didn’t go through the history of it up close. i lived in NYC and worked for NYPAC and secondarily with Todd Gitlin and the SDS. the reason ayers left and splintered into the WU was we were from the MLK non-violent sit-in group, and they were into the communist overthrow the gov’t and kill the pigs approach. go watch the video about ayers where Gitlin spells it all out clearly.

dohrn and ayers video from 2007 at a conference where they both speak at length and say they are communist and want to overthrow the gov’t. 2007.

they mean it, count on it. barky knows too.

all his best buddies want CHANGE, radical change.

it is a pattern, it has enormous evidence.

connect the hundreds of dots, they spell out the word “oshitler” to me. remember the movie dr. zhivago?

I BET ACORN GETS OFF TOO!

Obama campaign already has the votes rigged no matter how we vote. Time for the few non-corupt political people of power to rise up and stop this maddness before our country is ruined. It may be to late but we can’t give up the fight, few weeks left.
What CAN WE DO???????

…does this sound like he’s “rehabilitated”? No, I don’t think so.

Every good little fascist knows that when you undertake to disappear dissent, you must also disappear all references to that dissent.

Just a heads up; you missed the comment just above. Cheers, and sorry for agettin’ footyprints all over your nice clean propaganda again.

Hell, Obama didn’t even have the balls to “Say it to his face” when his comrades were calling Bill Clinton a racist.

Obama too much of a two-faced coward.

People can’t seem to really listen well these days. John is attacking Obama on his truthfulness. NOT on his associations.

I agree with John. I couldn’t care less about Ayers. He’s a gasbag professor at this stage.

What’s relevant is the habit of lying. And Obama has that pattern.

THAT…..THAT…..is relevant.

Obama was the head of the board for the Chicao Annenberg Challenge from 1995 to 1999 and, in that position, he was responsible for the disbursement of millions of CAC funds. Yet, as a 2003 report showed, Annenberg schools performed at about the same level as other schools in achievement tests. There is no indication that Obama asked for any accountability in the form of improved test scores during his years as board head.

Also, there was a power struggle in 1999 between the Local School Councils and the then head of the Chicago Board of Education, Paul Vallas. Vallas was concerned because he was losing many of his experienced principals since the LSCs had the power to hire and fire, effectively acting as independent education boards. Vallas attempted to regain some of the power to hire and fire that was lost when the Chicago school system was decentralized. During this power struggle, Obama did not take a stand for either side and he did not, as a community leader, attempt to act as a “unifier” in order to bring the two sides together. Once the LSCs had cemented their power through the Illinois legislature, Obama came out in defense of LSCs.

Ayers, who along with Obama worked so hard to “reform” Chicago schools,does not appear to have modified his views on education. In 2006, Ayers spoke before Chavez in Venezuela and said the following:

“We share the belief that education is the motor-force of revolution, …I look forward to seeing how he and all of you continue to overcome the failings of capitalist education as you seek to create something truly new and deeply humane.”

“Education either reinforces or challenges the existing social order, and school is always a contested space - what should be taught? In what way? Toward what end? By and for whom?”

Bigger Than Ayers [Mark Hemingway]
I’ve stayed largely silent on the William Ayers controversy because, while associating with someone of that nature is completely reprehensible, I’m not altogether convinced it’s a poltically effective attack. (I also wish McCain was putting a better economic message on the table right now as well.) Further, if associating with criminals is a problem — there are more relevant associations with ties to his campaign that everybody ought to be concerned with.

I’ve been screaming into the abyss for some time about Alexi Giannoulias, the Illinois state treasurer that Obama endorsed when he ran for office despite no previous political experience, who has been personally mixed up with organized crime via business dealings with his family’s bank. Well, guess what — this little nugget turned up in a column in the Chicago Sun-Times:

Sneed hears rumbles political fund-raiser/fixer Tony Rezko, who is now singing sweetly to the feds from his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center, has been talking about his “dealings” with a Chicago bank, which has political connections.

Now that’s throw away item in a political gossip column, so I would suggest taking it with a grain of salt. But if there’s any truth to it the odds that Rezko is singing about Giannoulias’ Broadway Bank are exceedingly high. If Giannoulias turns out to be in legal trouble again, there’s no way Obama can disatance himself like he has with Ayers. Giannoulias has been out raising lots of money for his campaign, and was even given a speaking slot at the Democratic convention in August.

So Obama chose to have him associated with his campaign. This was well after it became public that Giannoulias had loaned $11.8 million to Michael Giorango, a convicted bookmaker and prostitution promoter. Giannoulias first denied he personally approved the loan, then Chicago Tribune reported that Giannoulias personally oversaw $11.8 million in mortgage loans to Giorango in 2005. Then Giannoulias said the money had not gone to finance Casinos for organized crime. He appears to have lied again: “But newly obtained records show that $3.6 million of the recent loans were used by Giorango and another convicted felon to acquire a casino boat marina in Myrtle Beach, S.C.,” reported the Tribune.

It’s not like the Obama campaign can credibly say they didn’t know about this before he was out raising money for the campaign. But I’d like to believe major news agencies might want to pull a few reporters out of dumpsters in Wasilla (probably starting to get really cold up there anyway) and get them to Chicago to look into a potential Rezko-Giannoulias connection toot sweet. Maybe there’s nothing there, but it’s worth looking into right?

I can dream, can’t I?

SusanUnPc, well done. The mere fact that BO lies about his dealings with the likes of Ayers shows he can not be trusted.

Worse his judgement is obviously impaired.

When the call is made, BO’s value as a commodity is sub-prime and come the 4th he will not be able to close the deal.

The dems in attempting to conflate Ayers with “troopergate” will only drive votes away from BO.
I agree with Mr. Johnson said. Good for you Mr.Palin!
