- CBS LEFT out or overlooked a little bit of available news information.
The New York Times wrote, "Mr. Ayers, who in 1970 was said to have summed up the Weatherman philosophy as: ''Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, kill your parents, that''s where it''s really at,'' is today distinguished professor of education at the University of Illinois at Chicago."
Ayer''s wife Bernadine Dohrn, also of the Weather Underground, praised the Charles Manson murders. She said, "Dig it! Manson killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them, then they shoved a fork into a victim''s stomach."
Furthermore, he [Ayers] told the New York Times in September 2001, "I don''t regret setting bombs...I feel we [the Weather Underground] didn''t do enough."
Chicago mayor Richard M. Daley, who knows both Obama and Bill Ayers well, and who supports Obama, says of Obama and Ayers, %u201CThey%u2019re friends. So what?%u201D
Perhaps many Americans can overlook or ignore this. But I think many more would not.

- Barry is the only major candidate who has been able to ride out his campaign as the guy who came from almost nowhere, thus unencumbered by the need to defend any old policies or past decisions.
For a candidate who wants to be elected PTOS, there is nothing wrong with questioning his associations.
A most secretive candidate with dubious associates.
Illinois State Senate Records - not released
Illinois State Senate schedule -- ''not available''
Occidental College records -- Not released
Columbia College records -- Not released
Columbia Thesis paper -- ''not available''
Harvard College records -- Not released
Harvard Law Review articles published -- None
University of Chicago scholarly articles -- None
I do know that Barry was a lawyer for ACORN, but nothing about his other clients.
Obama has not released his Rezko law records
Law practice client list -- Not released
I have never seen an interview with any former friends, classmates, other attorneys or anyone
who can offer information about the "character" of Barry.
The long and short of it? Barack Obama knew, and knew well, that Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn were terrorists when he met them. He just didn''t care.
"The old phrase, "a man of high ideals but no principles," is one that applies all too painfully to Barack Obama today. His words expressing lofty ideals may appeal to the gullible but his long history of having no principles makes him a danger of the first magnitude in the White House. "

- Obama served with Ayers on a board for charitable community work that was organized by a conservative Republican, Walter Annenberg, who was friends with Ronald Reagan and whose wife gave an endorsement today to the McCain campaign.

- OH MAN, I''m lovin'' it. Obama campaign answers the Ayers garbage well and makes Sean Hannity look like the j***a** he is.
Check this out, and be sure to watch the YouTube video of the Hannity interview towards the bottom:

- what about McCain serving and working alongside people with virulent bigoted pasts like Sens. Jesse Helms, Strom Thurmond and Robert Byrd?Do we have evidence that these individuals committed specific acts against African-Americans during Jim Crow? No. But we do know that their hateful words, and willingness to uphold laws that were absolutely anti-American, did not represent the best of this nation. Thurmond ran for president as a Dixiecrat in 1948 with a platform of maintaining segregation. Based on Helms'' policies, he didn''t see blacks as full Americans.So, did McCain work with them? Did he not speak with them? Should McCain have declared that he would not work alongside these men because of their past? Should the self-described maverick who believes in integrity and character have taken the honorable stance of resigning from the Senate to protest these hateful characters serving in the U.S. Senate?No. And this is why this association argument is so weak and impotent.For goodness'' sakes, Byrd was once a member of the Ku Klux Klan, a domestic terrorist organization!
