How much worse can it get after the Bush Crime Family fiasco?

Our Constitution has been shredded and spat upon. Our Justice Department has been corrupted. Lobbyists are running Washington. Bush has murdered young soldiers in an illegal occupation. Cheney has gotten wealthy beyond comprehension via Hell-iburton and no bid contracts in Iraq. Bush never botherd about Bin Laden and took him off of the FBI most wanted list. The country is bankrupt and we are in debt to China. We are the only industrialized nation without universal healthcare. We watched people straving and drowning during Katrina as if was happening in a third world country. Bush pardons the traitor Scooter Libby after he outs a CIA operative that was working to keep this country safe. Bush is in bed with the Saudi Royal Family and he has denied global warming because he is also in bed with big oil. The atrocities heaped upon this nation is infinite and now you are worried? WAKE UP!!!!!!!

How old are you? Do you have any idea what the country was like during the Vietnam era? Do you know abou incidents like Kent State?

Many believe that though his methods were wrong there was NOTHING wrong in protesting the Vietnam War.

Many also understand people change over time. If that wasn't true, if people don't change, then there's a drunk in the White House.

The ignorant people that do not get what Ayers' issue was with the U.S. war mongering government are most likely the same people that support the likes of "The Bush Crime Family", Vampire Cheney, Frau Palin and Grandpappy McCain. Have any of them torn themselves away from a T.V. screen long enough to call their reps in Congress or The Senate to protest any of the injustices or crimes that this evil administration has perpetrated on our Democracy? I doubt it!

BTW...there is still a drunk in the White House. He's also a squatter in the Oval Office via two stolen elections.

sickofnyc let me explain. Sarcasm: is stating the opposite of an intended meaning especially in order to sneeringly, slyly, jest or mock a person, situation or thing. It is strongly associated with irony, with some definitions classifying it as a type of verbal irony intended to insult or wound. Sarcasm can also be used in a humorous or jesting way depending on the intent of the person speaking. You liberals are so quick to call others ignorant when you are the ignorant ones (sometimes).

This was not an attempt at sarcasm. This was my observation pertaining to people that are quick to point fingers at and label a person without having an understanding of what the underlying issue is or was. Some people cannnot grasp what a passion to right a profound wrong feels like. Are the people that are proclaiming to find Ayers' actions heinous able to say that they have made their opinions known about the crimes of this administration known to their representatives?

Wow Boy, you must be young, very young. If anyone had ANY dealings with SDS or the Weather group they were not eligible for a security clearance in the military. In other words they were delegated to do **** jobs, the same as they probably do today. They were much more then sign wavers, they were in fact domestic terrorist.

Pick up a history book and read it. Better yet watch Forrest Gump, they touched on radical groups, consider it "easy listening" for one with a partial birth lobotomy. I'm certain you can relate.

So, when ayers group bombed that judge in NYC apartment and family car -- that was about Vietnam? And even if it was...how could that be justified?

I am against abortion BUT I would never justify Rudolfs bombings of abortion clinic in any way at. The fact that you see justification in ayers behavior might have more to do with keeping obama pure then an actual belief that the weathermen were a benign 1960s counter culture youth club.

Kent State, the last ROTC building to get burned down by "those seeking an education".
