Video: Terrorist whines about Fox News

I’ll leave you to guess whether the audience applauded. Remember, by some leading leftist lights, FNC is “worse than Al Qaeda.” Think of this as a “terrorist” calling out the real terrorists.
WaPo covered this last night and, for once, challenged his assertion that the Weathermen never killed anyone — parenthetically. Exit question: Does attempting to blow up a dance hall filled with U.S. soldiers count, or are they the “real terrorists” too? Exit answer via WaPo: “‘As long as I’ve opened the door about terrorism, let me say one other thing,’ Ayers added, before saying several other things — such as the Sept. 11 attacks were ‘vile,’ but the ‘flattening of Fallujah’ by the U.S. military was also a form of ‘terrorism.’”

He’s trying to be a martyr.
William Wallace was a martyr. Bill Ayers, you’re no William Wallace.

Call me out, Mr Ayers. Please.

Seeing this guy in the news for the next 4 years is going to be very annoying.
BadgerHawk on November 18, 2008 at 2:38 PM
Did someone say this fellow is a teacher?
What’s the difference between Timothy McVeigh and Bill Ayers? Easy, body count.
tarpon on November 18, 2008 at 2:39 PM
Isn’t it interesting that this idiot is griping about his civil rights?
What a clod! He’s not even a respectable low-life. Can’t even live up to his own convictions.
Speaking of convictions….
kybowexar on November 18, 2008 at 2:39 PM
Fallujah was never “flattened”, if it had been we wouldn’t have lost eighty Marines taking the city; it would have actually been flattened.
By Ayer’s pinheaded logic, police kicking down the door of a crackhouse would be “terrorism.” I hate Ayers and I have nothing but contempt for Odummy because of his associations with such such a pig.
Bishop on November 18, 2008 at 2:39 PM
He should be re-tried for those stupid earrings.

This POS makes me yearn for the down home American folksiness or Ward Churchill.
NeoKong on November 18, 2008 at 2:40 PM
It pains me that I have to look at this cretin, and it’s truly unbelievable we have a president who has spent many an hour with this man. It’s really a testament to how lost we are, in terms of national identity, that a terrorist like this can have a national stage, get tenure, etc, and be taken seriously at all. Freaking sad, really sad.
hippie_chucker on November 18, 2008 at 2:41 PM
Where’s the commenter that kept saying Ayers is a “good man”? Where is he?

Did you or did you not plant bombs with malicious intent, sir?
If so, then kindly SHUT. THE HELL. UP.
Why isn’t this clown in prison or facing a firing squad? What kind of screwed up bizarro world are we living in?

WHY THE HECK WASN’T BILL AYERS “REVEALED” BEFORE THE ELECTION!?!? Cheap, lying, sick media tools. I spent so much of my time and energy posting and sending information of this man, and others (as did all conservatives), doing their fracking job, and they NOW have the gall to give him a platform?

Ayers… if you didn’t have a bomb in your hand, you couldn’t hurt a house fly.
Someone let me at this testiies challeneged man and show what a real Patriot can do.
Oh course I will be called a American teroorist for beating up an American terrorist.. but hey, I didn’t say I was going to kill him!
upinak on November 18, 2008 at 2:43 PM
And Lee Harvey Oswald was a Marine. What’s your point?
Limerick on November 18, 2008 at 2:43 PM
does anyone else find it ironic that someone who tried to bring down America through violent revolution (Dohrn’s words, not mine) because of their evil capitalist ways…
can manipulate the capitalist system so well?
Would love to see how much money from the re-release of his book will be given to those poor incarcerated teenagers that Ayers loves to lionize.
Almost as ironic as when the attempted cop killer shrunk away from a big bad Fox News reporter and called the cops to get them off his ‘property’,the notion of which wouldn’t be legit in the communist utopia he’s working towards.

Wait…….This thread is about Bill Ayers?
I thought it was about Al Franken.
leetpriest on November 18, 2008 at 2:47 PM
As noted in the headlines, Mr. Ayers should kiss Fox’s hindquarters because they are the only media outlet to acknowledge him. They are probably responsible for any or all current infamy he is now enjoying and can probably add to his bottom line in the republication of his books. Kind of a crybaby for a terrorist.
Cindy Munford on November 18, 2008 at 2:47 PM
Ummm…who is this guy?
From the scant media coverage he got prior to the election (for some odd reason we’re not sure of), I’m not exactly sure who he could be. And if he has no ties to Obama, as we were led to believe, then why is he only emerging now?
Can anybody interviewing this mystery person that Obama had nothing to do with tell us why we should care about him?
I DO know from that same media coverage, however, that Sarah Palin is TEH SUXOR, and bought some clothes once.
Damn you, FAUX NEWS!! DAMN YOU TO HELL!!
Good Lt on November 18, 2008 at 2:48 PM
Depends on how you count.
For instance, McVeigh clearly can’t hold a candle to Ayers in terms of number of youths corrupted.
Count to 10 on November 18, 2008 at 2:48 PM
Ayers whined about Fox “News,” too?
My friends, you have found common ground.
benny shakar on November 18, 2008 at 2:48 PM
Not flattening Fallujah allowed the ‘insurgency’ to gain credibility. Mookie should have been worm food. By flattening Fallujah, the US would have sent a clear message that we aren’t taking any shit. But that was a moment lost, and we paid dearly for that mistake in judgement and strategy.

What do Osama bin Laden and Obama have in common?
The both have friends who attacked the Pentagon.
Good Lt on November 18, 2008 at 2:49 PM
What a b*tch. I love the way lefties act like Fox News is this blight on humanity, as if it’s the only thing standing in the way of universal health care, punitively high income taxes, punitively high union teacher salaries, gay marriage, etc.
And these are the same people that laugh at conservatives for complaining about bias in the MSM. Tools.

I’m currently reading Destructive Generation. This asshat’s group of “revolutionary communists” were a bunch of inept, childish punks who thought they were a lot smarter than they actually were…and it appears they haven’t changed a bit.

hippie_chucker,
It is not a matter of how “lost” we are, it is a matter of how willingly misled and gullible some people are. These people are the poster children for the following quote from Hamilton; “Those who stand for nothing fall for anything.”
We have seen these types of people before. Lining the streets of Vienna, Munich, Nuremberg and Berlin and tossing flowers at their “messiah”.
We have also seen these types of people 30 years ago. Decaying in the jungle heat after committing “revolutionary suicide” for their messiah.
I am sure you have some resident Obamaworshipers near you. Take a good look at their eyes when they “wax poetic” about their “messiah”, then go and look at the pictures of the crowds on the streets in Berlin, Vienna or Nuremberg. You will see the same blank expression in both.

Bishop on November 18, 2008 at 2:56 PM
The fact that this scumbag traitor is still alive, let alone free, says half about what is plaguing our country. The election of the idiot messiah speaks to the other half of the problem. The fact that they are buddies just goes above and beyond anything even remotely reasonable.
Gird your loins.
progressoverpeace on November 18, 2008 at 2:56 PM
Technically, Ayers wasn’t the guy with a bomb in his hand. He left it to his girlfriends to do the dangerous work for him. Guy was as much a pussy then as he is now.
I’m struck by how self-involved and narcissistic this Ayers character is, and how thrilled he is to be in the spotlight. He’s like the Phoebe Price of domestic terrorists.
Gilda on November 18, 2008 at 2:57 PM
If you have kids who aren’t yet in college look now at sending them to Hillsdale College. They would never let anyone like Ayers even near the campus. I can’t believe this lunatic is teaching our kids.
DerKrieger on November 18, 2008 at 2:57 PM
too bad no one asked him about Sharon Tate and her unborn baby. What about his book dedication to Sirhan Sirhan. I would suggest that people at his book signings ask him these questions.
bloggless on November 18, 2008 at 2:57 PM
If anyone is going to off this creep, do it the way he wanted to do the soldiers at Fort Dix… with a nail bomb.
This poor excuse for humanity gives humanity a bad name.

Why is anyone listening to anything that he has to say?
Do you think the media will ever tell the truth about this guy, a “friend” of Mr. Obama, President Elect, the Office of?
What would be great is if he held a press conference and no one showed up…………… left to the ash heap of forgotten history, totally irrevelant.

NPR was hyping Ayers as a guest on today’s “Fresh Air” w/ Terri Gross, describing him simply as an “anti-war activist”.

Ayers’ complaining about his rights reminds me of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of 9/11, after he was caught when he was cockily refusing to answer questions because he was expecting to get a lawyer first.
Terrorists know the routine, don’t they?
SteveMG on November 18, 2008 at 3:10 PM
You know, as much as this guys whines, it’s a wonder he was leader of this nutcup terrorist group. I’m beginning to believe that the SDS was really a douche company.
If O’Reilly keeps sending his guys out to irritate him, I wonder how long it is until the police start getting sick of responding to this p*ssy’s house.
I’ll tell you what. I would PAY MONEY to see the cops beat the white off this guy!
HornetSting on November 18, 2008 at 3:11 PM
Always happy to hear Mr. Ayers speak. He seems to be quite patriotic, actually. By listening to him, there’s no hint that he might have, at SOME point, thought that America’s governmental structures were less than desirable. His complete change of heart lends no clue from which even a mighty intellect such as Barack Obama could deduce Ayers’ past minor indiscretions.
hawksruleva on November 18, 2008 at 3:11 PM
Bill Ayers is a worthless spineless b1tch. He thinks bombing buildings with our people in it is cool but then has the nerve to whine like the c)nt he is about fox. In my neighborhood he would be called a wuss. One can only hope this prick gets testicular cancer followed by kidney cancer followed by brain cancer followed by throat cancer.

Unfortunately, the country is going to have to sink even lower before festering sores like Ayers get their just reward.
Eventually, even an electorate as stupid as ours will begin to realize the unbelievable folly that has been wrought.
Of course, that assumes that the principle of “an electorate” survives Obama. Another $500 per head promise could convince them to relinquish the vote altogther.

William Ayers is Exhibit A in the case against Obama. There is no way that anyone could keep company with this despicable man and not be aware of his radical views. No person of integrity and honor would choose to willingly serve on a board with this man. He’s not just a person in the neighborhood. He’s a terrorist.

From an old blog post of mine:
The article by the ex girlfriend, written in 2006 has enough leads for an intrepid reporter to follow – room mates, shrinks, etc who can corrobarate her story and expose Ayers for the absolute dirtbag that he is.

Now let me get this straight. This man is collecting a salary, tenure, and honorariums for speaking in a country he has plotted to destroy. And on top of that he is molding young minds full of mush.
And on top of that, this man was friends with and ran an Educational Foundation with the incoming POTUS!
Pass me the Tylenol.

HornetSting on November 18, 2008 at 3:28 PM
Ayers has has spent his life hiding behind women – forcing a former girlfriend to succumb to rape by a black roommate so she could prove she wasn’t a bigot, sending out another – Diana Oughton – to blow herself up while trying to kill others, hiding behind the piece of work who is his current wife – Bernardine Dohrn, an even more heinous human than himself.
The article by the ex-girlfriend written in 2006 has enough there for intrepid reporters to chase up roommates, shrinks etc to corroborate her story and expose Ayers for the dirtbag he has always been.
saint on November 18, 2008 at 3:30 PM
One thing puzzles me. Ayers attacks were against the Kennedy/Johnson administrations, weren’t they? It was those two who got us into and totally screwed up the Vietnam war–and it was Nixon who finally got us out. If Ayers is really true to his beliefs, then he might have more in common with Timothy McVeigh than is apparent at first blush. It’s just possible that he, like McVeigh, is a Republican.

Good Lt on November 18, 2008 at 3:34 PM
The Weathermen were not an anti Vietnam group. Funny how in a few years – or was that in the course of an election campaign – and thanks to Obama shills like the New York Times, Weather Underground morphed into an anti-war group – the most violent Weather Underground bombings occured after the Vietnamese ceasefire agreement.
They were radicals out to overthrow the U.S. government, capitalism, whatever else crossed their drug-addled heads. Read Grathwold’s interview. They even seriously discussed genocide of 25 million Americans.
saint on November 18, 2008 at 3:36 PM
Nope. First and foremost, he’s a Marxist.
baldilocks on November 18, 2008 at 3:37 PM
I wonder how you sign up for one of Ayers classes. I would make a good student of his. I would just like to get close to the SOB. By the way Oswald was a marine but also a communist.
Zelsdorf Ragshaft on November 18, 2008 at 3:37 PM
saint,
Absof**&inglutely right on. Little Billy Ayers has never been anything but a rich punk, and hiding behind skirts is his defining attribute.
warbaby on November 18, 2008 at 3:39 PM
Yep because he figured out that he could get a six figure job and tenure at the university and get gullible latte liberals to shell out money to hear his rambling lectures and buy his incoherent books. For a radical Communist bent on the violent destruction of the American system, he sure does understand capitalism.
Illinidiva on November 18, 2008 at 3:39 PM
