Oh, my goodness. Heard someone refer to Ayers as black terrorist.

[fed_up_mother]

Thinks Obama is colluding with a black terrorist.

Isn't.....ummm.....Ayers.....white?

And the Weather Underground was not a "black" terrorist organization. Right?

When "Sarah" says Ayers, I think some of these folks are picturing a cell of black terrorists.

[specialed]

1. The weather underground was not a black anything.

I was 8 then too. LOL!!!

[fed_up_mother]

6. Really hilarious! I wonder if Sarah knows that he's white?

:rofl:

[polmaven]

13. Well, how could she?

Terrorists aren't white, are they? :shrug:

Oh, and just to be sure-----:sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm:

[YOY]

2. Yes and furthemore that probably have no idea what the Weather Underground was about.

I assure them it is not about religion.

[bunkerbuster1]

3. Good!

Let 'em think that. Plenty of time to ridicule and marginalize these imbeciles--and yeah, I think a solid majority of the country's voters WILL see this as a stupid, desperate attempt to change the subject. McCain's practically already admitted as much.

[Kalyke]

4. That's the point.

People actually argue with you when you tell them he's white... until you tell them to Google him, then they're shocked.

[baldguy]

5. They have no clue about who Bill Ayers is, and couldn't care less.

They just know they're supposed to hate him and, by extension, Barack Obama.

[OneGrassRoot]

7. Yep, that's where she's messing up with her "base" --

they hear "terrorist" and think Africa/Middle East; it's also why some are using the word "radical" when referring to Ayres rather than terrorist.

Radical implies crazy white leftist; terrorist is non-white.

[alsame]

8. Confusing the Weathermen with the Black Panthers? Maybe

this is deliberate on their part, trying to inject racism.

[fed_up_mother]

9. Yeah, probably so.

I just thought this was funny.

I was scratching my head thinking "Huh?"

[tom_paine]

10. The sad truth of the human race from it's very beginning, I think, which is...

PROPAGANDA WORKS
REPETITION WORKS
THE BIG LIE WORKS

THE BIG LIE WORKS

It almost always has for tyrants and it almost always will. Whenever people catch on to the old methods, new methods are swiftly put in place.

If ol' B'rer Rabbit can't get what he wants one way, then ol' B'rer Rabbit'll just have to find another way to get what he wants.

I'll always remember the Bushie Senator played by Burl Ives in Roots and how he explained it just that way...how so much of the world works...but MOST relevant to how tyrants and Bushies and Nazis and Commies and Pinochet and Marcos and Caesar work.

And in 10,000 years of history, no society (or very few societies, that is certain) has EVER successfully educated itself to the point where it could prevent nascent Totalitarianism once it got past a certain point. Has EVER been able to get that level of awareness to spread to the public beyond the hated Intellectualsm, such attitudes that have been shown to be the ONLY thing that can resist tyranny.

But with roughly 1% of the people on the side of the Intellectual, time and time and time and time and TIME again tyrants have found the Intellectuals and the Enlgihtenment values they represent have never been difficult to sweep aside, at least in the beginning.

How much do you think this hurts a person who chose their monniker to be tom_paine to admit that? And NO, I am NOT advocating giving up...NOT IN THE LEAST!

But objective reality is objective reality, and we dare not turn aside from it's bright glare, even if painful.

Again and again and again and AGAIN it happens. And one generation to the next, people are ever clueless until it is too late.

With a few brief exceptions in world and American history -thanks original Tom Paine and Founding Dads, Union Men and Women who beat the Bushies in 1865, and all the rest, for giving us some of them to live in briefly.

But, Dear God, what a Greek Tragedy most of human history has been for regular people! What a Greek Tragedy awaits us now unless we pull off the Hail Mary here, and I am NOT just speaking of getting Obama elected...that is only the beginning of our work.

[Mist]

11. Well, this was to be expected from RW ignorami, but yeah, Ayers

is white:

Ayers police shots:



Ayers more recently:

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

14. Looks a lot less crazy, innit?

Then again, most people are like that when they get old. With some notable exceptions who shall remain nameless, and of whose lawn I'll steer clear.

[riverwalker]

12. Ayers needs to do Larry King

I've seen his videos, he is a mild mannered 60 year old grampa, a professor of education. People will say "THIS is the terrorist"????

[Obamarama]

15. I heard the SAME THING. Here's what I think they're doing in saying this:

Most people have no fucking clue who Ayers is..if he's white, black, or pink with purple polka dots. So, they are just throwing it out there to get people with racist tendencies to think "Ayers = Black Terrorist. Obama is black. Obama knows Ayers. Therefore Obama = Black Terrorist"

[fed_up_mother]

16. Really shows what they think about the IQ of Republican voters.
