I usually despise Megyn Kelly. She is a skinny neo-con blowhard but I had to side with her for once during the interview with Bill Ayers. I also give Faux credit for giving the hard left Ayers an oportunity to appear on the show. Ayers proved himself to be a spineless unamerican jabrony twit. I am still annoyed that he and his wife were able to land a job teaching at a University. Tonight is part 2.

It was a hard interview to watch...but I loved how when he would deny a statement or that he didn't do it and Megan replied "but sir, it's in your own book!"

To think it's ok to just blow up buildings and homes to make a statement is beyond me.

Still shocks me that he got a job teaching. He never repented what he did. He was proud of it. And yet a University let him into a classroom.......

Perhaps this was helpful in Ayers getting in the classroom.....

And to think that both he and he wife are well known domestic terrorists, and he still landed a job as a university professor.

First, I don't really like Ayers, because he is a commie. But I neither think he is spineless, nor is he a twit. Nor do I really think he was any more wrong in what he was doing, than the government was wrong in what they were doing.


For that matter, there is no actual "proof" that Bill Ayers killed anyone. Maybe he did, maybe he didn't. Maybe people around him did. But here is the truth, the amount of people killed by Bill Ayers and the people around him, is somewhere between zero and one.

On the other hand, the US government, who lied to get us into war(Gulf of Tonkin), has the deaths of three million people on their hands. And 65,000 of them Americans.

A war that wasn't popular, that required the forced conscription of young American men. Many who despised the war so greatly, that they would "frag" their own incompetent leaders.

Fragging - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Bill Ayers was wrong, but our government was even more wrong. And while I don't like to side with anyone who is "wrong". If I am being forced to take one side or the other, I would take the side of crazy Bill Ayers, over the side of the American government circa 1965-1973.

Megyn Kelly is also a former prosecutor. She is definitely no "blowhard," as you describer her, and in an age when so many people are over-weight, why would you dare to criticize her for her fitness?

I am amazed that Ayers and his wife are even out on the street. The two of them should be in prison serving life sentences. But I agree with you; he is a spineless twit, and a coward. How it is they are allowed to teach at a prestigious university, is disturbing. But, perhaps that says something about the university. They should lose all funding.

He was fighting a corrupt regime; I wonder why he didn't mention that.

Communists versus fascists; are those the only two options?

Probably did a lot of drugs back in and the day and possibly still. I've been told that stuff can mess with your memory.

He was on a power trip.

Drugs interfere with that.

Do you think Lyndon, the Baine, or Nixon, the Dick, did drugs?
