  1.   Indeed, Obama has a colorful past!   Not just about Ayers, but Rezko even more as far as I'm concerned.  Ordinary friends don't just do the kind of deal that Rezko did for Obama in purchasing his Chicago mansion.  This had to be a pay back for other services rendered, yet every one in the democratic community is willing to turn a blind eye as to what went on.

    I wonder too, if a complete pardon for Rezko isn't part of the agenda, if Obama gets elected.        Perhaps this is why Rezko is being so very quiet !

    It seems to me the democratic community would truly want to know more about this issue, before they unleash this guy onto the American people. There's just too much about this guy that we really don't know.  He's not the open book that Joe Biden has become, there's some dark mystery lurking here, and I don't think the democrats have the stones to find out what it is !


  2. No.  You're calling him a terrorist, which has connotations with the people we've been "scurred" of the last 7 years.  His group bombed buildings in the 60s, yes.  That was not a good thing to do, and not something that anyone really approves of.  But they also warned people ahead of time, and no one was ever harmed in any of their "attacks."  Quite different than killing 5000 people.  The only people who were ever killed by their bombs were 3 members of their own group, when a bomb detonated accidentally.  

    He's not my favorite person, but I don't really consider him a threat.  He's a University professor - if he were a terrorist he's be in Guantanamo.  

    Additionally, define "close association."  Is he going to be in Obama's cabinet?  Doubtful.  So what are you worried about?

  3. What "close association?" How old was Obama when Bill Ayers attacked Washington? 7? 8?

  4. No, since they are not close.

    Did Rumsfeld's close association with Saddam bother you?

    Does The Bush Family / bin Laden Family close association Disturb you as well?

  5. Liberals apparently think that there are more important issues to discuss, such as Palin's close association with an unwed teenage mother.

    I would question the judgment of anyone that can't see which of those two is significant and which is not.  

  6. Oh no what will the Libs do now, more tainted past for their Messiah, say it isn't so?

    Considering all Dems have some kind of anti-american in their black books, I am not surprised at all at this one.  

  7. It was in Bill Ayers home that Obama decided to launch his bid for the Presidency. It was there that he made it known.

  8. Not Democrats. To them people like Ayers are the "true patriots" in this country.

  9. No.  Ayers hasn't been involved with them since Obama was a small child.  McCain was involved in shady financial dealings with Charles Keating and Savings and Loan lobbyists while he was a member of the US Senate.  That is more disturbing.

    McCain chose as his running mate someone who has no foreign policy experience.  That disturbs me.

    McCain's running mate opposes abortion even in cases of rape, incest and the life of the mother.  That disturbs me.

    McCain's running mate opposes teaching s*x education and evolution in public schools. That disturbs me.

    McCain's running mate doesnt believe in global warming.  That disturbs me.

    McCain clearly did not vet his choice of running mate very well.  She is the mother of an unwed teenage child and contrary to what they are saying we all know he didn't know.  The Repubs wouldn't have selected her if they did.  Clearly, he didn't concern himself with the selection of the important position of VP.  I worry about his choices for Secretary of State, Defense and Attorney General.  That disturbs me.

  10. Time and time again this is brought up. First Obama has denounced Ayers actions. Just because you know someone who stole from a store doesn't mean you are going to do the same thing. This is just another way the GOP is trying to get rid of Obama. They are more concerned about the past of a person, than the future of this country!

  11. no..maybe now we can pull or troops out of iraq and find bin laden...palin's 17 yr old daughter unmarried and pregnant bothers me more..i dont want to see b******s running around in the whitehouse..they already have 2 in there right now..bush and cheney

  12. It would seem most of his associates have shady backgrounds! It is one of the reasons I want nothing to do with him! Then he claims to want to stay away from the lobbyists and picks a VP whose best friends are all lobbyists! I don't think he has any clean connections.

  13. Yes, me.

    Read some of your answers. Figured. More worried about Bristol's pregnancy - the Vp nominee's daughter, than the Dem prez nominee's associations with known terrorists. Bristol's doing the right thing & accepting the responsibility. Obama calls Ayers "a friend". Choice between a mother of a responsible teen & a man who continues associations with a terrorist.

    People have their priorities wrong.
