Anyone else see that on the news tonight??

I guess fox has an exclusive copy of a book that Ayers wrote. Ayers claimed he dedicated the book to the man who killed Kennedy..

Pretty sad..

It still blows me away that people just overlook Obamas affiliation to Ayers.

Yes, I saw it. He dedicated it to political prisoners and one of them was the assassin of Robert Kennedy, Sirhan Sirhan. The more I hear about this man I just can't believe Obama was friends with him. Sirhan, a Palestinian, said he killed Kennedy because of his support of Israel which he saw as a betrayal. See a patten here anyone?

And Palin quoted Westbrook Pegler, an anti-semite who advocated and then celebrated the killing of RFK, in her convention speech.

Of course, Ayers co-authored his book in 1974; Palin, who, unlike Ayers, is an actual nominee for the Vice Presidency, gave her speech less than 2 months ago.

Obama was not "friends" with him. He served on two charitable boards with him. And Ayers hosted a political fundraiser in his home for Obama--the kind of thing board members do for each other all the time. "Friendship" is irrelevant. Grow up.

And Palin was part of AIP with The Oklahoma City Bomber Timothy McVeigh's mentor and trainer Norm Olsen who is a member of AIP, that Todd Palin was also a member of and whom she supports and tells them they are doing a good job and keep up the good work in their effort to hate the USA and succeed Alaska with the help of Iran.

And McCain is good friends with G Gordan Liddy.
who after being released from prison still told
people to shoot to kill federal agents.

The Repubs only smeared and spinned this Ayers non issue to hide their own shame.

whatever.. Ayers--- Obama didn't really even know him, all he did was sit on a committee with Republican people on a republican issue.

Right, they were not friends, yet everytime one of these odd ducks show up in his past, lo and behold there is Ayers and his scumbag wife. Ayers trusted Obama to divvy up millions of dollars. Would you put that much trust in someone you didn't even know? I think not.

There is a little difference in giving a speech someone wrote for you and being friends with someone like Ayers and his wife for over 20 years. Michelle Obama knew his wife from her law firm first.

Pegler was married to a Jew actually.

OMG, if you really believe Obama and Ayers were not friends you are hopelessly brainwashed. Ayers shows up in every questionable circle Obama does.

Ayers didn't "trust Obama to divvy up millions of dollars." Obama was not invited by Ayers to serve on the board. He didn't even know Ayers UNTIL he served on the board. He was invited by two of the other board members--both female. It was the Republican billionaire Walter Annenberg who "trusted" AYERS to divvy up millions of dollars.

Get your facts straight.

It wasn't as if it was Ayers' money. It was Republicans Walter and Leonore Annenberg's money. You know the huge supporters and friends of Ronald Reagan.
