Confederate Yankee: Obama: Leave My Terrorist Friends Alone!

Obama: Leave My Terrorist Friends Alone!

This attempt by Barack Obama to minimize the murderous acts of his long-time terrorist friends is pathetic.

Allahpundit notes:

His argument is so weak that it doesn't really qualify as an argument: Yes, we're friendly, but it's ancient history and I denounced what he did, so what’s the big deal about socializing with, um, an unrepentant terrorist? As for the submoronic point about Ayers's crimes having been committed when Obama was eight — a staple of the left's feeble defense of him on this subject — imagine what the reaction would be if Bobby Jindal, say, had struck up a chummy pen pal correspondence with Charles Manson while in his late 20s.

Charles Manson, you say? Yes we can.

On the morning of the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, along with a million other readers of the New York Times (including many who would never be able to read the paper again), I opened its pages to be confronted by a color photo showing a middle-aged couple holding hands and affecting a defiant look at the camera. In retrospect, the article's headline could not have been more flesh-crawling: "No Regrets for a Love of Explosives." The couple pictured were Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, former leaders of the 1960s' Weather Underground, America's first terrorist cult. One of their bombing targets, as it happened, was the Pentagon.
"I don't regret setting bombs," Ayers was quoted in the opening line of the Times' profile. "I feel we didn't do enough." In 1969, Ayers and his wife convened a "War Council" in Flint, Mich., whose purpose was to launch a military front inside the United States with the purpose of helping Third World revolutionaries conquer and destroy it. Taking charge of the podium, dressed in high-heeled boots and a leather miniskirt -- her signature uniform -- Dorhn incited the assembled radicals to join the war against "Amerikkka" and create chaos and destruction in the "belly of the beast." Her voice rising to a fevered pitch, Dohrn raised three fingers in a "fork salute" to mass murderer Charles Manson, whom she proposed as a symbol to her troops. Referring to the helpless victims of the Manson Family as the "Tate Eight " (the pregnant actress Sharon Tate had been stabbed in her womb with a fork), Dohrn shouted: "Dig it. First they killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them, they even shoved a fork into a victim's stomach! Wild! "

Oh, yes, kids.

The lovely Ms. Dohrn, Mrs. Bill Ayers, is not just the hostess of Barack Obama's first fundraiser, but an enthusiastic fan of the way Charles Mason's cult murdered a woman who was almost nine months pregnant. Dorhn is suspected of multiple terrorist acts, including building and planting the bomb that detonated at San Francisco's Park Police Station, killing one police officer and blinding another.

Bill Ayers admits directly being involved in attacks on New York City Police Headquarters, the Capitol building, and the Pentagon.

Fellow Weathermen had 100 sticks of dynamite and boxes of roofing nails they were making into pipe bombs to massacre revelers at an non-commissioned officers dance at Fort Dix. Ayer's girlfriend at the time, Diana Oughton, was building one of the nail-filled bombs when it went off in her hands. Instead of unsuspecting soldiers and their innocent dates, these terrorists killed only themselves, that time.

Dohrn worked at the law firm of Sidley Austin thanks to Ayers family connections with the firm. Other famous lawyers at Sidley Austin you might know include summer associate Barack Obama and Michelle Robinson, later Michelle Obama.

Funny, how the incestuous circle ties itself in knots.

Barack Obama has been involved with the Ayers clan since 1987, when Obama led the Developing Communities Project, a component of the ABCs Coalition coordinated by Bill Ayers and led by Ayer's father. The Woods Fund, the Chicago Anneberg Challenge... Barack and Michelle Obama has a paper trail with the Ayers clan and Bernadine Dohrn that goes back more than two decades, and appears to be not just professional, but personal. Obama felt comfortable having his first fundraiser at the home of well-known terrorists, and I wonder; did the Obama's ever return the favor, having Dorhn and Ayers as guests in their mansion? Does Barack Obama's "judgment to lead" include exposing his elementary-aged daughters to cold-blooded killers in their own home?

Barack Obama wants to convince us that it shouldn't matter that Bill Ayers, Ayer's dead terrorist bomber girlfriend, his terrorist wife and their cronies declared war on the United States and murdered its citizens. The murders, the treason, the bombings of American targets in a war they declared... all distractions. And I was eight.

The simple fact of the matter is that though he has been given numerous chances, Barack Obama will not refute his terrorist friends. Instead, he just attempts to minimize their crimes.

Americans have every right to question why.

What is it with the democrats nominating vicious America haters? First Kerry and now Obama. Kerry went to Paris and tried negotiating with the enemy and then came home and smeared our military. If it wasn't treason it was obviously sedition. Now we get Obama who attended an America hating church and hangs out with treasonous terrorists.

That's why I could have lived with a Hillary presidency. She doesn't hate this country per se, she's in it for herself. She really doesn't have any convictions of her own. At least she wouldn't damage or attempt to destroy our democracy. No doubt that Obama or Kerry who both have a seething rage for our Constitution would/will attempt to destroy our freedoms.

Destroy our freedoms? No, neither Kerry nor Obama would do that. And even if they would, they're too late: Bush and Cheney did enough harm to our Constitution and our freedoms with the "Patriot" Act, etc.

OK, can someone, resonably, explain to my someone like Barack Obama would *ever* associate with a man like this? Especially given that he was pretty clearly always interested in advancing politically? Is it that it just doesn't matter that you associate with monsters (yes, literally) like this in the Chicago 'machine'? Anyone?

ECM: In answer to that, you'd have to look at the pathology involved. Age, Time, Parental Influence... Look at this way, Ayers fulfilled a father figure and his wife, well, she smacks of being a run-to-form twin to Obama's Mama. It was very tres chic to bring home a Black Man in the 60's as a slap to the status Quo, which is what Ayers and his wife strove to be... "Revolutionaries"

The Liberal, Left Wing Reactionaries, who were able to, through the "Reformed neo-terrorist Coffee Klastch" that seemed to be the modus operendi of these people. Why destroy the system from outside when you can do it from within? And do it through legitimate means. Obama was able to enter into the 'Chicago Machine' and utilize their basic nutroot support system. I mean lets face it... his mother was a rebellious world wanderer who happened to shack up with the current "Revolutionary Flavor Of The Month" (first an African-African, then an Indonesian)... It's not racist per se to say that middle class white women from Middle America shacked up with these people... more like Du Jure racism, but also, look at the times... it was the 60s. Mixed Race couples were frequently frowned upon, if not outrigh attacked.

He probably saw these two scumbags as surrogates, and in their case, they found a perfect politician to back, and thereby achieve the thing that bombthrowing was unable to do... Classic 5th Column work. Obama probably didn't or may still not fully grasp the ideas and people with whom he's associated with... or even more scary, he has, doesn't give a sh*t, and has plans that will be a source of unending nightmares for the rest of us.

"Bill Ayers admits directly being involved in attacks on New York City Police Headquarters, the Capitol building, and the Pentagon.

Ayers is quoted as saying that he only regrets that he didn't do more. If he and his pals had three airliners to fly into those buildings, instead of dynamite and roofing nails, is there any reason to doubt they would have used them?

The only part of that scenario that seems implausible is that the planers of the attack might have had a hard time getting one of those dandy revolutionaries to volunteer to be the pilot.

Why are Ayers and his wife walking free? Shouldn't they have been given life sentences? Thank you so much for this information - the Democratic Party has truly become the party of traitors.

Nice broadcasting license you've got there. You wouldn't want to lose it by running that advertisement linking Barack Obama to Bill Ayers would you? Didn't think so.

MoveOn. Nothing to see here.

As I understand it, Dohrn did do some time for related charges, a good stretch though not enough for me. Ayers avoided any prison time after years as a fugitive, turning himself in and hiring a serious defense. Since he was a terrorist, as opposed to a garden-variety murderer, the FBI surveilled him and otherwise gathered evidence without adhering strictly enough to criminal procedures. Much of the evidence was inadmissable but the question of Ayers guilt is not open. He brags of his treason. This group seems to have generated sympathy with a certain brand of dolt through their incompetence and absurdist bile. That is hard to imagine but obvious. Ayers, a trust-fund radical, would be quite objectionable even without the bombings. His career radicalizing education has been as destructive as any act of terror one could imagine. This character is truly, explicitly and proudly Anti-American. That he has prospered in Chicago politics is a blot on the sense and decency of those citizens. If he can get his hand-picked soulmate into the Presidency and in a scant 8 or 10 years of trying it will be a blot on the sense and decency of us all. But mostly leftwing Democrats.

These posts give pretty good insight into the Ayers connection and their ideology in their own
words.

Obama made a big mistake by putting out an ad and then going to the DOJ to try and suppress the publicizing of his extensive ties to Ayers/Dohrn.
McCain now can hit him hard and should since he
is providing such a weak defense.
Obama will be shown to be a liar when his statements about just having a casual relationship
with one of his neighbors is shown to be an extensive working relationship that involved millions of dollars being wasted on their failed
education reform.

On a side note,pregnant actress Sharon Tate was not stabbed with a fork in the stomach,it was Leno
Labianca that had the word "WAR" carved(by Tex Watson) into his stomach with a cooking fork and then Krenwinkle stabbed him repeatedly because she liked to watch the fork "wiggle" when stuck in his body.

The trust fund radicals are so odd. They enjoy the fruit, but would chop down the tree it comes from.

They must think that they would then be in charge (taking out daddy and grand-daddy) when the one in charge would be a Stalin, who would destroy them for being 'politically unreliable', as their parents were 'former persons'.

So narcissitic.

Bob, you ought to cover Alex Jones' incitation to murder Michelle Malkin. For all that grief the libs spread over Rush Limbaugh's "Hate"-speech, here's a lib talk-show host screaming and out of his ever-loving-mind at a woman, urging people to "Get Her!"

I wonder what dear Pamela Troy would say about this? Maybe this is the face of tolerance?
