1. If Ayers is a terrorist...

...why can I take the L down to UIC, walk into his office and say hi?

Shouldn't he be in prison if he's such a terrorist?

[pipi_k]

4. Not only that, but also....

If he's a terrorist and if Obama is pallin' around with him, why isn't Obama behind bars as well?

Or being waterboarded for information on other "terrorists" he might be cavorting with...


I can't even imagine the stupidity that must have been dredged up from the murky depths and put into trying to sell that whole Bill-Ayers-as-Terrorist to the small minority of Americans who still believe Saddam Hussein attacked us on 9/11

2. And I don't care about an old washed up "maverick"

[gblady]

3. that comment....

really stuck out for me during the debate...
his degrading and dismissive attitude toward people is stunning...

[TwilightGardener]

5. Ayers is just an excuse to keep saying "terrorist" in connection with Obama.

Did people even use the term "terrorist" back in the sixties?

[cliffordu]

6. No they did not.

[AzDar]

7. "Warshed up".

:puke:

[spanone]

8. if they don't care, then why do they keep talking about it????

9. Lemme see if I've got this right

Bill Ayers, who reformed his ways a couple-three decades back and now works to improve educational opportunities (and incidentally is largely funded by Republicans) is a scary terrorist pal of Obama's who should cause us all to flee in abject fright and horror.

OTOH, Osama bin Ladin, the supposed mastermind of 9/11 (and also, incidentally largely funded by dear, hand-holding friends of Republicans) and who vows to this day to bring down America and to inspire radical everywhere to kill Americans wherever they may be, is to be dismissed as nothing more than "an old warshed up terrorist", about whom neither McKook nor * gives a damn where he is.

Gee, I feel safe reposing trust in MOTS. Not.

Totally :tinfoilhat: territory.

One could only be a nutjob repug and swallow all that without gagging, blinking, or puking.
