It seems Democratic Presidential Candidate Barack Obama’s terrorist pal, Bill Ayers - who openly takes credit for bombing attacks around the country including explosions set off at the Pentagon and U.S. Capitol - has somehow morphed from the 1960’s unrepentant terrorist into simply a ‘radical.’ How’d that happen? Read more about it and watch a video below.
Conservatives and others who oppose Obama and have serious concerns about all his ‘friends‘ have long been waiting for someone in the mainstream media to investigate; thoroughly vetting the questionable ties and relationships of the man who would be messiah. And the ‘friend’ that bubbles to the top most frequently is Willam Ayers, founder of the radical left-wing group, ‘Weather Underground.’
Barack Obama simply dismisses Ayers as “a guy who lives in my neighborhood� and “somebody who worked on education issues in Chicago that I know.�
But Republican Vice Presidential candidate, Governor Sarah Palin knows he is an unrepentant terrorist not merely a radical. Yesterday, in her role as campaign ‘pitbull in lipstick’ she called out Obama’s association with his pal William Ayers.
Governor Palin cited this front-page article in the New York Times that ‘explored’ the ties between Obama and Ayers.
“There has been a lot of interest in what I read, and what I read lately well, was reading my copy of today’s New York Times and I was really interested to read about Barack’s friends from Chicago,” Palin said. “OK, now I get to bring this up not to pick a fight, but it was there in the New York Times, so we’re gonna talk about it.
“And it turns out one of Barack’s earliest supporters is a man who according to the New York Times, and are they ever wrong, according to the New York Times was a domestic terrorist and part of a group of that, quote, pushed a campaign of bombings that would target the Pentagon and the U.S. Capitol,” Palin continued. “Wow. These are the same guys who think patriotism is paying higher taxes. This is not a man who sees America as I see America, OK?”
The title of that NYT article? “Obama and ’60s Bomber: A Look Into Crossed Paths�. That should trouble all of us. There is significant evidence that they did more then cross paths, rather have been linked repeatedly over the years in very significant ways.
But now, it appears as if the mainstream media such as the New York Times, would have us believe that 1) Ayers was simply a radical guy during radical times; and 2) that Obama’s oppostion is looking for something that just isn’t there. Of course this is the same NYT that smeared John McCain with allegations of a sexual affair based on nothing but gossip from two disgruntled ex-staffers. They spent days on that lie and used multiple reporters to perpetuate it.
By the way, Team Obama immediately denounced the attack by Palin as “shameless” and “offensive.” Laughable.
But hey according to Saracuda, the gloves are off, the heels are on, and its time to go to work.

WE all know by now obama is a politician, like the others, and likely ayers was one of the easter eggs dumped in his chicago basket and he has chosen to deal with it in his own way. There is no way to confuse a radical with a terrorist. Terrorists purposely plot and plan and carry out deeds to kill and maim people. Radical is usually just a point of view, a soapbox, a march, a bullhorn—a type of communication that lets everyone walk away. So terrorists are criminals as they steal lives and limbs. Radicals may be interesting or just a pain to listen too, but that doesn’t make them criminal. Let a person’s deeds define their soul. If they can’t draw a line between physically harming people in an act of theft they are nobodies friend, ever. But to simply smear obama for playing nice nice especially given his complicated background is overdoing it. Hungry people, many already rich, did far worse on wallstreet. I think we need a president, with human values, challenge the establisment as it is now and we too will be forced to be our own mini politicians. Mccain isn’t really challenging it by the people he’s surrounded himself with. Obama has his share of ninnys for sure, but overall he gets some issues better I think if he can deliver. Mccains campaign suspension was over the top, when in fact he could have just returened to washington to do Arizona’s senate work like a regular senator. That is worrisome. We don’t need another deliver nothing public relations spin creation president.

Let’s see how McCain holds up when he’s caught in bed with Charles Keating and G. Gordon Liddy.
October 5th, 2008 at 3:35 pm
I wonder if Palin and McCain will give as much thought to The Keating Five issue? It seems that the “Mavericks” don’t want to talk about that one!
October 5th, 2008 at 4:00 pm
Since William Ayers has not been charged with anything and is not under any type of investigation, if he were attacked, would Palin be culpable?
She did call William Ayers, on national TV, a terrorist. Does she have evidence we don’t know about? Is this legal, calling someone not running for office a “terrorist”?
October 5th, 2008 at 4:09 pm
why don’t you just wikepedia ayers and read. don’t come around here shutting down free speech, just make a cogent argument why you think he should be an immune saint from the deeds of his youth. he actually shares a lot with rummy and you know it and they both will pay back in soul lost years. sleep and feed with the devil and you are the devil. Terrorism is as terrorism does. There is no justification for what they did to people. Now if they just wanted to make speeches, write phamplets, start a radio channel that is different, a very different deed indeed.!!!!!

Information is at the tips of your fingers, hit the net and you will find a lot of information about any topic. An inform person can make better decisions. Please read not only what this article says but also the article that was published by the New York Times, Saturday, October 4, titled, “Obama and the 60s Bomber: A look into crossed paths.” But do not stop there read also other articles that may differ with the ideas of these articles. Them make you own judgement.
October 5th, 2008 at 8:52 pm
Despite the mistakes and poor choices of his youth, it is absolutely slanderous to call Ayers a terrorist on television, and I hope he seeks legal action against Gov. Palin for being used as some kind of campaign pawn. It was a dirty move, plain and simple.
October 5th, 2008 at 9:00 pm
…But I’ll give her this much, it was at least less offensive than the video you have accompanying this post. Comparing Bill Ayers to Tim McVeigh? Really? To suggest that Barack Obama would be friends with Timothy McVeigh even in a thinly veiled comparison in some amateur YouTube-esque video, is not journalism. It’s not news. It’s just ridiculous, and it’s dangerous. And frankly, it’s too far. Even for this site.
October 5th, 2008 at 9:14 pm
Wow…Mccain/Palin don’t want to talk about Keating 5 or how they will tax our Healthcare…How about economis…
Well I guess we can’t expect that type of multi-tasking since Senator Mccain had to suspend his campaign to save the day in Washington…
Aren’t presidents supposed to multi-task?…Hmmm…..
October 5th, 2008 at 9:35 pm
Thinking adults who make and plant bombs in public places are terrorists, and is known as one for life, just like one who commits murder is a murderer for life. It is that way to warn others of their potential for danger and mayhem. Normal people don’t do those things. That would forever change the very basis of the that being. In real life McVeigh would have beat ayers up as he was one serious chap. Now the film was just a sign that Mccain has some really aggressive handlers that have lost their minds, and that should be the scary take home message.
October 5th, 2008 at 9:43 pm
Wise choice switching out that original William Ayers video. Thanks.
October 5th, 2008 at 10:18 pm
O’Reilly is so dismissive of obama, and O’Reilly is just a tv commentator its annoying in its disresptfulness. obama has to humiliate himself and walk on eggshells for the free airtime. Its a wierd compact and O’Reilly looks frazzled and irritated and ready to launch into his manic fits of hyperbolic anger manufactured or real. Its all so uncomfortable and demeaning. O’Reilly could have been more relaxed and friendly and set the stage better and engage obama into a frank interview. Charlie Rose doesn’t work like this, he respects even his most difficult guests and he knows how to burrow for answers, but he’s sincere and in earnest and better educated apparently(lawyer versus MPA) and more refined with a genuine love for life and its little fineries. O”Reilly comes off as the angry Irish stepfather who teaches at p.s. 101 for a living who is about to blow a gasket. I learned nothing, so obama got to hide whatever and get his air time. Very disappointing.
October 6th, 2008 at 5:06 am
Why is it so horrible that the American
people be aware of Obama’s past associations?
He wants to be PRESIDENT and associated
with a known terrorist. Worked with him
in Chicago and lives in his neighborhood
now. If Obama is proud of this association
with Ayers why did he say they were just
“friendly” and “lived in the same neighborhood”.
It was deeper than that. And don’t forget
Rev. Wright’s rants about hating America and
white people.
Wake up.
October 6th, 2008 at 6:02 am
There is more to Ayers than most think. Ayers is bad news. Obama’s association with Ayers and Wright on any level shows poor character and poor judgment. It is sad that many will defend such behavior. Obama will take this country down a path that many think is positive but in the end will result in socialism and the depletion of the American dream.
October 6th, 2008 at 6:36 am
Was Ayers prosecuted for terroist acts? Did Obama participate in the alledged terrorist acts? Were they friends during Ayers terrorist profession? Was Obama the driver waiting outside the building as Ayers planted the alledged bombs? No Obama was 8 years old. Has Ayers in the last ten years performed duties to assist communities in need? Is the work Ayers has done for the poor and unfortunate celebrated by liberals and conservatives? You betcha! Did McCain give our country yet another sleezy financial crisis. You betcha! He’s experiences in being on the wrong side of a crisis. Did he learn anything from being fined during the Keating Five Saving and Loan scandal? They don’t fine innocent people in the Congress. It’s the same shell game people. You in the rural area, go on and vote for a man with all this experience in destroying our country’s financial base for little people. Vote white(McCain) instead of green(dollars). Betcha haven’t really experienced hard times yet. Elect that experienced John McCain. Let’s see just how deep of a recession you can handle. McCain can relate to the problems you have, you’re both white. He has lots of green dollar bills and you don’t. You lost your one house and he’s kept his seven. Can’t afford gasoline. John feels your pain as he decides which of the 13 cars to fill-up. Better yet he’ll just fill them all up.
For people to support a candidate that is eratic and desperate is far more dangerous than anything Ayers was accussed of. McCain said we will focus on Obama’s character and not jobs, health care, education, foreclosures, and yet another financial crisis under McCain’s watchful eye. Oversight, now? You betcha! Will the oversight be more like the oversight he was fined for during the Keating Five Saving and Loan that cost America over 100 billions dollars, sound familiar. If I was McCain I would change the subject also. Bush has destroyed everything he has placed his hands on, McCain voted with him 90% of the time. He was a maverick 10% of the time. You’re willing to place your future in the hands of a team where, what do you read, is a gotcha question? The person that can’t answer that question should vote for that team, because someone is reading this to you. I’ll go with the new guy who is intelligent, articulate, strong, principaled, innovative, problem solver and still with his first wife. He can actually talk about family values. Did all the Republicans and religious right forget family values, cheat on your first wife, lives with mistress before marriage, teen pregnancy, troopergate, don’t vote for issues where women should get equal pay for equal work, force victims of rape to pay for their own rape kit(Palin), cut funds for special needs event(Palin), lied about bridge to no where hundreds of time, doesn’t read not even “highlight” or TV guide, judgment=choose a nominee already under the umbrella of investigation before entering Washington, move to smear instead of slow governor and old senator giving us a reason to vote for them. Oh yeah, they’re not the other guy. I actually thought we had reached our dumbness and embarassment all over the world with Bush, but he’s brilliant compared to Palin. Palin and McCain scare me and our allies. Am I going to vote for our only candidate, Barack Obama, you betcha. Wink, wink, smile, smile, deer in headlight. By golly, vote for real change. By golly, send Sarah back to Alaska so she can face the investigation. A person of principle and courage would want to do this by golly.
October 6th, 2008 at 7:35 am
more of the same. really what is a maverick? a waffling frontiersman? A caribou hunter?
Here’s a blurb i found about Ayers ACTUAL comments - http://www.gelfmagazine.com/archives/notes_from_the_weather_underground.php
October 6th, 2008 at 8:15 am
If anyone who ever planted a bomb or participated in insurrection is a terrorist, then the founders of many countries are terrorists, including most of the founders of Israel and Ireland (just to name two from the the I’s) and especially the founders of the United States of America!!
If you have a problem with firing on British forces occupying New England, then you’ve got a problem with America.
October 6th, 2008 at 8:55 am
So what is it — is the NYT reliable or not. Palin’s quote includes a reference to the NYT article: “The NYT, which is always right about these things…” HA. But, of course — she reads “everything”, doesn’t she?
PS - what about Ms. Wacko Preacher laid hands on me? Ms “I’ll fly home to Alaska after my water broke and at 8 mo pregnant because I want my kid born in Alaska but I’m not an Alaskan Independence person, am I?”
October 6th, 2008 at 9:52 am
It’s gonna get personal from here on out. After watching the Paris Hilton / Spears celebrity ad erase a 9 point lead in July, I think the GOP knew that they could attack Obama personally at any point and erase a deficit. Now, with everyone’s attention on the election, it’s clear that it’s going to get personal every day.
The GOP raised a record $66 million, which matches Obama’s record haul in August with the DNC. They are going to spend that on Obama attack ads that allow McCain to stay above the fray since they won’t be coming directly from his campaign. I know the Obamabots are going to get fiesty from hear on out, but get ready for daily personal attacks on Obama’s character, his past, his patriotism, and, yes, probably his wife.

If there was a video released of The O shooting people to death, you all would say, “What is the big deal. Those people were going to die anyway and he was just helping them.”
What it shows is poor judgement on The O’s part and unlike McCain, The O has never said it was a misteak to be involved with Ayers.
