Your link to Media Matters contained some bits that just weren't fitting for it. Let me suggest that these words:

Ayers, Dohrn and Evans' Code Pink have led several recent Free Gaza Movement initiatives, including attempted marches into the Gaza Strip. Dorhn was in the Middle East just last month on behalf of the movement.

Ayers and Dohrn were close associates for years with President Obama, while Evans was a fundraiser and financial bundler for Obama's presidential campaign.

come right out of that link.

Now in that article Media Matters provided some of their "discrediting" of Palin words and I found them saying that Ayers and Obama were never close associates. When will those at Media Matters stop making these conflicting statements? In order to do their appointed job maybe never.

I loved the Media Matters crap about Klein rushing in to link those people with the event the other day. Of course, they went on to say that Dohrn was in the Middle East just weeks ago. Could there have been some planning going on then? Do these three people just happen to be the most important members of the Free Gaza bunch that outfitted three of the six ships? I wonder how many of their activists are jihadists.

Did you know that the day the ships were "accosted" by those Israelis the Turks were talking about a number of those on the ships were writing their end of life papers? Yep, they knew they might just force the killing of them.

Stick Media Matters where the sun don't shine because that is where they belong.

So, hokum.
What was the name of the political party that Obama belonged to back then?

What water? Egypt has lifted its blockade. They implemented it to begin with on political reasons (Hamas winning democratic elections).

I see the water from the Dead sea is magical.
Why are media outside Media Matters, Think Progress and Huff Po talking about the fact that the Egyptians are still involved? You know why and so do I.

Which of Hawk's assertions have you talked to in this post? I see none, but then I am not as lefty as you are, either.

An Irish ship (MV Rachel Corrie) is on its way. Can't wait to see how Israel handles it.
They will board it peacefully as their blockade calls for and if treated like they were on that ship the other day will have to use their weapons to protect themselves just as they did that day.

Hey, ghost, do you know how long they fought with their paint guns against those belaying pins and metal pipes being used on them before they got permission to shoot those people? You don't even know that they were being attacked, or won't admit to it, huh?

Could be, it certainly seems as if he was an abused child. That would go a ways to explain why he is such a bitter, hating, whining adult.

My appologies to anyone that was abused as a child and has risen above it.

Here's an interesting addition to things.

Democrat party front group Media Matters for America has released several statements in recent days seeking to throw reporters off the trail of the strong ties between President Barack Obama and Jodie Evans, co-founder of the terrorist support group Code Pink.
Media Matters attempts to influence public opinion by getting their politically-slanted, factually-challenged reports in the hands of sympathetic liberal reporters who then either regurgitate Media Matters’ propaganda to the public as news or use it as guidance to bury news.

What does this post say about American's who leap defend Israel's brutal actions by trying to link Obama into this?

I'd say they are bizarre.

To hell with bill ayers. He got off on his charges only because the feds did not get a warrent before wire tapping and searching. He was and is still guilty of murder, terrorest acts against the Nation, and if you think he's not guilty of outright murder by bombing, why don't you ask the family of his dead victims!!! Ayers should be shot, bombed, or any other bad thing that you can imagine. And ANYONE who supports him is an enemy to our Nation!!! But I guess obama supporters would be ok if it was a republican with ayers record and close ties to a republican president?
