I think what Ayers did was wrong and should not be condoned. I understand why he wanted to do what he did but that doesn't make it right. I also don't buy into him having any sway over Obama or the policies that he makes regardless of what rightwing information is posted here.

I also find it interesting that McCain supporters have no problem with him being best buds with a guy that tells people how to kill federal agents. Ayers is a terrorist but Liddy is a hero. It doesn't make sense.

William Ayers


"We petitioned, we demonstrated, we sat in. I was willing to get hit over the head, I did; I was willing to go to prison, I did. To me, it was a question of what had to be done to stop the much greater violence that was going on." David Gilbert

I'm sure you would invite him with bin Laden and Ahmadinejad as well.

And you pal, can probably rest assured you are being watched now by big brother. I'll bet you belong to some radical group that condones this sort of thing.
I don't have a big brother, but maybe you do. You probably bought into forfeiting your civil liberties because of bogus color coded terrorist threat levels. By the way, what stand do you take on the Bush Crime Family and their lying us into an illegal occupation? There's a difference between being a pacifist and being a shnook. Terrorism is wrong, if in fact it is terrorism. Sometimes desperate times calls for desperate measures and you have to wake people up!

You are so right!!!!!!!!!!! If this was a Republican who had done this (which it isn't, because terrorists and anti-Americans are usually a Democrat problem) people would have laughed at us if we had tried to justify a terrorists actions.

Spoken like a typical right wing narrow minded John "War Monger" McCain supporter.

By the way, Bin Laden got exactly what he wanted, thanks to Bush and all of his supporters like McCain.

So you're admitting you jumped to a conclusion and assumed something without and proof or reason for the assumption? Do you know this person? Do you know him enough to say "....but people like him...."?
