Ayers being outed

during this election is kind of funny. All these years while not hiding, he certainly didn't advertise his existence to the general public. When I see Fox national news dogging him down the street he lives on Ayers actually looks frightened. I think it friggin hilarious that this has happened. He deserves this to happen to him. It is so ironic how he and his associates, then in the 60's and 70's, used the constitution against us, now finds it necessary to call the Chicago police, because he doesn't want reporters hounding him on his street in front of his house, which is the reporters and news organizations right under the constitution.

As a member of the Weathermen (Weather Underground Organization) he and some of the groups associated with the Weathermen (Jonathan Mansville group that hid in upstate New York) did quite a bit more than just plant a few bombs. As a group they robbed banks and Brink's truck, whose guards were killed, to pay for the detached hidden from view lifestyle, which was necessary support thier outlaw extistence, but also to lend credence to the mantra they espoused. They also tied in with hardened career criminals who showed them the ropes. During one robbery in Boston, an officer Schroeder was shot in the back and died.

Even if some of what Ayers says now or said in the 60's was true, how could anyone write in a book that Sirhan Sirhan is a political prisoner like he did in Prairie Fire.

I don't care that Obama and Ayers served on the Arnnenburg Foundations panels. Arnnenburg himself, (started the Reader's Digest and built a fortune around that business), was quite a conservative. He was generous though when his money could provide atmospheres of critical thinking, and Arnnenburg didn't mind that those think tanks produced provocative liberal ideas as long as they solved problems.
