Ayers in 2002 While Working With Obama: "I'm as Much An Anarchist As I Am A Marxist"
Bill Ayers has never made his Marxism a secret, as can be attested in this radio interview that was taped in 2002, as Ayers and his protégé Barack Obama were working together on the board of directors at the ultra-liberal Woods Fund.
"I considered myself partially an anarchist then and consider myself partially an anarchist now. I mean, I'm as much an anarchist as I am a Marxist, which is to say that I find a lot of the ideas of anarchism appealing..."
And it's not that Barack Obama wants to punish our success. He just wants to spread our wealth around.
Hope. Change. Marxism. Anarachism.
Isn't that what we all want for America?
Fundamentally, Marxism, Anarchism, Secularism, and Islamism are all the same. No serious political candidate should tolerate any of these depraved doctrines. Thanks to the Ayers-Obama-Wright triune of tumult, real Americans should be able to see this even easier now.
Posted by: Objective Scrutator at October 22, 2008 10:57 AMHow anarchism, a trope against any and all government, can coexist within a single skull with totalitarian Marxism is mysterious. Could it be as simple as that Ayers is a dummy and is ignorant of the contradictions? Whatever, this piece of shite's every utterance needs to be exposed. If every citizen heard this claptrap and knew the extent it parallels Barry's views McCain could walk it home.
Secularism OS? Really?

Posted by: DirtCrashr at October 22, 2008 03:57 PMTo be fair, Obama was only 44 years old when Ayers made those statements.
Posted by: jana at October 22, 2008 09:18 PMI think tape like this means we should start making the attack not that Obama's really a socialist, let's take him at his word- even though Ayers was telling anyone who wanted to hear it what he thought (magazines, t.v., anyone) Obama didn't know. What an intellectually incurious idiot unfit for the Presidency by his own admission.
Works for me anyway.

Posted by: ts at October 23, 2008 06:59 AMAmerican conservatism has an anarchist root also, but individualist anarchism which more acts as a distrust of overarching government power.
As I like to say, my politics are three martinis away from being an anarchist, but at my age, I pass out after two. And in any event, it is the Spooner-Tucker-Nock strand of anarchism, I want government to leave me alone, I DON'T want to run through teh streets dressed in black trashing Starbucks to protest globalization.
