Lots of folks who disagree serve on boards together. <BR/><BR/>Ayers supported Obama and had a fundraiser for him. So what? where's the evidence that Obama has kowtowed to Ayers' policies? <BR/><BR/>Yes, Ayers worked with Weather Underground. Thirty years ago. Since then he's been a respected scholar and educator. He's changed his ways and his focus. <BR/><BR/>And did Ayers bomb the Pentagon? Again, evidence, please. <BR/><BR/>In short, nothing about this script is verifiable.<BR/><BR/>I will leave the fact that you cite Wikipedia as a definite source as evidence that you have no idea how to evaluate claims.MountainLaurelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10512030002803787636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7906487748794597048.post-63448491789849217422008-10-23T15:02:00.000-04:002008-10-23T15:02:00.000-04:00Let me get this right, mountainlaurel. You are sa...Let me get this right, mountainlaurel. You are saying that all of the following are false:<BR/>1) Barack Obama worked closely with Bill Ayers (they served on severl boards together and Ayers hosted a coffee to launch Obama's political career, etc.).<BR/>2) Bill Ayers is a domstic terrorist (founder of Weather Underground).<BR/>3) Bill Ayers organization (Weather Underground) bombed the Pentagon.<BR/><BR/>Even if you don't beleive that raising taxes during "the greatest ecomonomic crisis since the Great Depression" and adding a trillion dollars in new spending isn't an extreme leftist agenda (or that someone who proposes tham lacks the judgement to lead our country), it's hard to see how you can believe that the other facts are "factually false."

I don't think it'll win many votes and I can see why an Obama supporter would not want to read it, but at least there is nothing false in it. I've received numerous robo calls against Shelley Moore Capito which actually have false information in them.clear eyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02410525750381856368noreply@blogger.com
