		<description>&lt;strong&gt;The Weather Underground: Bill Pardoned Them, Obama Worked With Them, Hillary Didn&#8217;t Know Anything!...&lt;/strong&gt;

Michelle Malkin
Are all politicians crooks with bad memory&#8217;s and shady friends?

That question was rhetorical.

		<description>Daring to question Obama&#039;s judgement and character?  That&#039;s a no-no in case you didn&#039;t know.  It&#039;s a distraction from his awesomeness with an attack (justified IMO) with facts and that simply will not stand with his followers.</description>

		<description>As I stated on Chris Plant&#039;s WMAL radio show yesterday, you don&#039;t need to go back to the 70&#039;s to observe Obama&#039;s support of Marxist terrorists. It seems more evidence (which won’t be seen in the MSM) is coming to light all the time as to Obama’s murky background. A very interesting article “&lt;a href=&quot;http://newsbyus.com/index.php/article/233&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;The Real Obama Story Exposed!”&lt;/a&gt; by JB Williams, posted on Newsbyus, has turned up. It is &lt;strong&gt;a letter sent from missionaries regarding background on Obama’s real background in Africa&lt;/strong&gt;. Excerpts:&lt;blockquote&gt;In a letter received from American missionaries who have spent the last twelve years living and serving in Africa, the Agent of Change comes into focus.
 
The letter opens with “Thanks for sending out an alert about Obama. We are living and working in Kenya for almost twelve years now and know his family (tribe) well. They are the ones who were behind the recent [2007] Presidential election chaos here. Thousands of people have been displaced by election violence (over 350,000) and I don’t know the last count of the dead.”
 
The letter goes on, “&lt;strong&gt;Obama, under “friends of Obama” gave almost a million dollars to the opposition campaign who just happened to be his cousin, Raila Odinga, who is a socialist trained in East Germany.&lt;/strong&gt; He has been trying to bring Kenya down for years and the last president threw him in prison for trying to subvert this country!”
 
Then the missionaries make their biggest statement, “What we would like you to know is what the American press has been keeping a dirty little secret. &lt;strong&gt;Obama IS a Muslim and he IS a racist&lt;/strong&gt; and this is a fulfillment of the 911 threat that was just the beginning. Jihad is the only true Muslim way.” This message comes from American missionaries who have been working among Muslim groups for the last twenty years, the last twelve among Obama’s tribe (family) in Kenya.
 
The assertions made by this missionary group are astounding. But the assertions raise questions which are even more astounding.
 
The letter further states, “He is not an American as we know it. Please encourage your friends and associates not to be taken in by those that are promoting him. It is world wide jihad. - &lt;strong&gt;By the way, his true full name in Kenya is Barrack Hussein &lt;em&gt;Muhammad &lt;/em&gt;Obama&lt;/strong&gt;.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>What&#039;s becoming apparent is that Ayers and Dorhn see Barry as a *&lt;strong&gt;black&lt;/strong&gt;* politician before anything else.

I doubt they would go out of their way for a radical white politician. They&#039;re the ones who notice Barry&#039;s blackness.

The culmination of the 60&#039;s Black Panther radical chic is Barry O. Barry has as his birthright the black liberation movement of the 60&#039;s.

Not Harry O.</description>

		<description>Bill Ayers and his wife, Bernadine Dohrn have had the last laugh. They largely avoided paying a price for their crimes, enjoy a sort of celebrity status among their crowd and enjoy a comfortable living, paid in large part, by the very society they wished to upend. 

Interesting random bits:

Mr. Ayers has always been known as a &#039;&#039;rich kid radical.&#039;&#039; His father, Thomas, now 86, was chairman and chief executive officer of Commonwealth Edison of Chicago, chairman of Northwestern University and of the Chicago Symphony.

In 1969, after the Manson family murders in Beverly Hills, Ms. Dohrn told an S.D.S. audience: &lt;strong&gt;&#039;&#039;Dig it! Manson killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them, then they shoved a fork into a victim&#039;s stomach.&#039;&#039; &lt;/strong&gt;
(Said stomach being the very pregnant belly of Sharon Tate, in case you hadn&#039;t guessed).

During his fugitive years, Mr. Ayers said, he lived in 15 states, taking names of dead babies in cemeteries who were born in the same year as he. He describes the typical safe house: there were usually books by Malcolm X and Ho Chi Minh, and Che Guevara&#039;s picture in the bedroom; fermented Vietnamese fish sauce in the refrigerator.

Ms. Dohrn and Mr. Ayers had a son, Zayd, in 1977. After the birth of Malik, in 1980, they decided to surface. Ms. Dohrn pleaded guilty to the original Days of Rage charge, received three years probation and was fined $1,500. The Federal charges against Mr. Ayers and Ms. Dohrn had already been dropped. 

After the couple surfaced, Ms. Dohrn tried to practice law, taking the bar exam in New York. But she was turned down by the Bar Association&#039;s character committee because of her political activities. 

Bernardine Dohrn was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1942 and grew up in Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin. She graduated from Whitefish Bay High School where she was a cheerleader [6] and attended the University of Chicago where she graduated with honors with a B.A. in Political Science in 1963, and with a J.D. from the University of Chicago School of Law in 1967.

Anyone know how much Ayers and Dohrn make from their university gigs?</description>

		<description>Obama keeps saying he&#039;s being swift-boated.

Okay, play us a videotape of Rev. Wright&#039;s good sermons; point to all the good, patriotic people you have associated with on your way to the top.

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;It’s an interesting double standard, and one that Americans might see as very revealing in November.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I expect the revealing part to be when libs see all this stuff and still vote for the bastard.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Hmm. &lt;strong&gt;Appearing on a panel is nothing much&lt;/strong&gt;. Serving on a board little more. Campaign event at his house though, that’s fairly significant.

What if the University of Chicago panel was put together by Michelle Obama? Would that make you think twice about it being &quot;nothing much&quot;?</description>

		<description>Hopefully the DNC looks like 1968 again.  

They were bankrupt then, they are now except it is worse, Marxism having become a priority as long as you call it something else.</description>

		<description>&quot;Moxie Neanderthal&quot; makes some excellent points. Obama probably thought that he could &quot;be somebody&quot; by going to an elite prep school and an Ivy League university, then found out that he needed to align himself with radicals to start a political career there. 

If he had grown up in the South (like Condoleezza Rice) or a mainland city (like Bill Cosby), he would have realized that the politics of Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers don&#039;t play well in white America outside the &quot;latte liberals&quot; in San Francisco or Ivy League schools, and he would have tried to distance himself from them if he wanted a national political career. But Obama grew up in Indonesia and Hawaii, totally out of touch with mainland, mainstream America, then thinks he can impose his mishmosh of international socialism and African supremacism on an unsuspecting American public under the disguise of &quot;hope and change&quot;, preying on &quot;white guilt&quot; whereby anyone who dares criticize a black man is a racist. 

He blundered his way to a Senate seat when his Republican opponent imploded, and now thinks that he can become President of a nation he hardly knows, by taking advantage of the fact that President Bush is unpopular, and his Democrat opponent is a known liar and accomplice to one of the most corrupt Presidencies in history. Audacity is an understatement--how about chutzpah! 

Who is Barack Obama? With all the favorable polls and the adoring, fainting, hypnotized crowds, does anybody really know? Does Barack Obama really know himself? Somehow, between now and November, the mask must be ripped off this arrogant, glory-seeking dreamer so that at least half of America sees him for what he is, before he leads a gullible America with his horribly-flawed &quot;judgment&quot; into unmitigated disaster. Is at least half of America awake, or in an audaciously hopeful trance?

Answer on November 5...</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Being raised by solidly middle class white grandparents and attending an elite Hawaiian prep school is hardly the sort of background that lends itself to a political career in the inner city.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Didn&#039;t you get the memo?  Obama was raised by a single mother on food stamps. (At least, that&#039;s the way he&#039;s spinning it now; don&#039;t bother this guy with the truth).

As for the BS about how Obama was only age eight when Ayers was engaged in his terrorist acts with the WU, that&#039;s true.  However, Obama was over 40 when Ayers wrote an article for the NY Times, in which Ayers lamented that he had not planted &lt;em&gt;more&lt;/em&gt; bombs.  Obama was also over 40 in 1995 when unrepentant domestic terrorist Ayers and his terrorist wife held a party at their home to launch Obama&#039;s run for the Illinois state senate.</description>
