Ayers is a scumbag that should be in prison NOT in a University dirtying the minds of students. He has NEVER disowned his criminal past and still fully believes he was right.

I have posted a link above which leads to the biography of Bill Ayers, in which you can also read his curriculum vitae.

It is a wretched, pathetic campaign to use fear mongering and outright lies to link Barack Obama with terrorist activity. Sarah Palin does NOT “represent the very best America has to offer”. She represents what America should be very ashamed of: trying to irrationally exacerbate our fears to capitalize on them in getting elected.

I will state that the radical activism of the Weathermen was abhorrent, and they went far past the line of acceptability in rightly fighting the Vietnam War. Ayers was not convicted of a single crime connected to terrorist activities. This doesn’t mean he is free from criticism. He did some very dastardly things of which any person should be supremely ashamed of. In all fairness, he might not show enough remorse for these actions. However, these actions have NOTHING to do with Barack Obama, and they happened when Obama was 8 years old.

What Palin fails to tell you is that Ayers, in his adult life since his early transgressions, has built his life around servitude of the public good and in helping to make real educational progress. His resume is long and impressive in the POSITIVE things he has done for his community, state and nation.

I would hope that we are mature enough to realize the measure of a man is the sum of his deeds. For the few truly awful actions this man did in his youth, he has done far more in his maturity to make the world better. The Bible gives us the story of the Prodigal Son. Whether or not Ayers is a prime example, I am not here to argue. However, Palin would have you rush to judge Barack Obama in negative light and fear based on his very brief work with Ayers on an educational reforms committee. This is work for which both men should be applauded, not condemned. It is quite sad that Palin thinks people are stupid enough not to realize the difference. Even more depressing is that she might be right.

I encourage you to visit the site hosting Ayers’ biography and resume. Do not allow yourself to be made fearful by this zealot who wants nothing more than to turn your fears into her own power.

MEDIA BIAS ROBS AMERICANS OF THE TRUTH
The media’s continual bias in favor of Obama is not only disgusing, it’s against everything that America, a Free Press, and Freedom of Speech stands for. To suggest that there is no media bias in favor of Obama not only robs Americans of the truth, it insults the intelligence of the American people.
TALK IS CHEAP … CHECK OBAMA’S RECORD !!!
A candidate’s track record, and associations are always a legitimate issue when running for President. Let’s take a look at the qualifications, judgement, and experience of Obama, who is running for President. Obama had 25 years to fulfill the potential he displayed as a rising start at Harvard Law School … and, how did he live up to that potential? … He chose to align himself with anti-American racist, Jeremiah Wright for TWENTY YEARS … along with Ferrahkan, Rezko, Ayers, and others. As a community organizer, he registered thousands of voters in Chicago … then, when he ran for the state legislature, he took away their votes, by disqualifying his opponent (a black woman) on a technicality. As a U.S. Senator, he voted present 160 times … he never called a meeting on the Afghanistan committee he chaired (although he NOW says we must shift all our military from Iraq to Afghanistan). He claimed Foreign Policy experience from a 9 day whirlwind photo op to 6 countries. And, he spent almost half of his tenure neglecting his responsibilities as a U.S. Senator, so he could run for President. Senator McCain served America honorably for 22 years in the military. He proved his love for America, as well as his honor, integrity and character, by refusing early release as a P.O.W., even while being tortured. He served America as a ‘contributing’ U.S. Senator, working across the aisle, for 20 years. If Obama’s Twentyfive year track record shows he lacks judgement, and can’t be trusted, who cares what he says about Health Care and the Economy! What Obama never learned is Character. He simply can’t be trusted … ask Jeremiah Wright, a friend of 20 years, who Obama betrayed for personal ambition … and, you Obama supporters really think he won’t betray you If he gets elected??? If he gets elected, you Obama supporters will be facing a HUGE disillusionment !!!

I can believe the Barracuda can make that kind of comment due to the fact that she is kept in the dark by her own campaign. If they’re having her to find information by reading “the newspaper”? How can they tell America about their issues and views especially when she question decisions made by her candidate. Wake up America! You’re being HOOD WINKED by these fools.

This is exactly the type of racist-tinged, fear-monering comment you’d expect to see form someone who belongs to a church which claims the ability to “convert” homosexuals. If Mr. Obama’s community and religious affiliations can be put under a microscope, why isn’t anyone looking into Palin’s????
