The relationship between Barack Obama and unrepentant terrorist William Ayers (pictured at right) appears to be even more involved than we already knew. Papers just released by the University of Illinois-Chicago, after much public pressure, show that Obama and Ayers collaborated as members of the board of the Woods Fund to funnel money to the Rev. Jeremiah Wright's Trinity United Church of Christ and the Arab American Action Network - founded by Rashid Khaldidi who supported Yassir Arafat and the Palestinians against Israel.
In fact, by 1997 Obama and Ayers were collaborators on a far more significant level. They sat together for several years on the board of the Woods Fund, a left-wing Chicago charitable organization. There, they doled out tens of thousands of dollars to such beneficiaries as the Trinity Church (where Obama was a longtime member and where another Obama mentor, Jeremiah Wright, preached a radical, anti-American brand of Black Liberation Theology) and the Arab American Action Network (co-founded by Rashid Khalidi, a Yasser Arafat apologist who has supported attacks against Israel and now directs Columbia University’s notorious Middle East Institute, founded by Edward Said).
National Review Online has an extensive article on this relationship. They are just beginning to review the papers released. I feel certain there will be much more about this radical relationship come to the surface

The records were released 10 days ag0, there is nothing incriminating in it against Obama.

You can bet, McCain will be bringing up the Ayers issue. The the media will HAVE to ask him about it.

I heard someone ask a very interesting question about this:
Find out HOW MANY liberal reporters are looking at these papers
AND
HOW MANY liberal reporters are sifting in the personal live of Sarah Palin?

Except to liberals having a close friendly relationship with a unrepentant America hating terrorist isn't a problem. It's a qualification.

So true.

This issue is to be addressed in the Tuesday segment of O'Reilly's interview with Dumbo. I can't wait to see how he 'refines' his position.
