I'd like to step on Ayers.

Adventurous violence!

re: #2 Honorary Yooper

I'd like to step on Ayers.

You'd get a lot of icky stuff on your shoes.

I dunno about you but to me, this Obama dude is one shitty guy...

I mean, if the Lefties think GWB is Hitler, imagine if Obama wins? What the hell are we gonna think anytime he does anything?

"Irony" no longer needs a written definition.

I am all for flag desecration of that sort.

It appeals to a very limited subgroup who are anti-American at every turn anyway.

It shows a Truth to millions of other Americans who need to get off the fence.

It is very, very useful idiocy.

Thank you, Mr. Unrepentant Terrorist.

Obama was 41 at the time. And was still a child.

The enemy is anybody who’s going to get you killed, no matter which side he’s on.

— Joseph Heller

Obama is the enemy.

Just let Obama finish his dumb ass waffle... Then he'll get back to you on this Ayers issue...

i wouldn't serve on a board with this guy.

i wouldn't go to a party in his house.

i wouldn't let my kids play with his kids.

i wouldn't let my dog play with his dogs.

if obama would only stop talking in banalities, and tell us what he really believes, we wouldn't have to judge him by his creepy associates.

Zell Miller:

For it has been said so truthfully that it is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press.

It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the agitator, who has given us the freedom to protest.

It is the soldier who salutes the flag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag who gives that protester the freedom he abuses to burn that flag.

I am amazed that Ayers has been able to eat at restaurants with the attitudes he has. It wouldn't bother me a bit if every restaurant in his town refused him service.

We need to find sound for this lovely statement made by his wife:

At a 1969 "War Council" in Flint, Michigan, Dohrn gave her most memorable and notorious speech to her followers. Holding her fingers in what became the Weatherman "fork salute," she said of the bloody murders recently committed by the Manson Family in which the pregnant actress Sharon Tate and a Folgers Coffee heiress and several other inhabitants of a Benedict Canyon mansion were brutally stabbed to death: "Dig it! First they killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them. They even shoved a fork into the victim's stomach! Wild!" The "War Council" ended with a formal declaration of war against "AmeriKKKa," always spelled with three K's to signify the United States' allegedly ineradicable white racism.

Rev Wright would be proud.

Of course, the zObambies will take this all in stride since they've never liked America anyway.

re: #3 savage_nation

piece of SHIT!

What you said. Having fantasies of seeing it happen and, um, disrupting, the photo shoot....

Ayers was Obama's employer?!

And yet, Ayers has the freedom to do all of this because of protection given by people he despises. If he pulled crap like this in a county that he felt was more ideologically perfect to him, he'd be fertilizer and air pollution within the day.

I'm old enough to remember the Weather Underground. They were crazy, they were dangerous, and if they hadn't been such doofuses, they'd have killed more than Timothy McVeigh and Eric Rudolph combined.

I'm sorry - but the man is an unrepentant piece of scum and should be in SuperMax.

he might be fired from his posh university job if he had done that.

re: #23 vxbush

A guy I knew in the Army waited until he PCS'd from Germany and processed out of the Army. Once he was out, he sent a photograph back to the troops and to the First Sgt. It was a picture of him peeing in Tops precious coffee mug over the urinal.

It's not his fault! Addiction is a DISEEEEEEEEEEEASE!

He's just an aging radical hippie-crit (and POS). I wouldn't p*ss on him if he were on fire.

Yes, but this photo is taken out of context.......

Not that I'd want to desecrate the flag in any way, but it would be most useful for a blanket party beatdown in this case.

re: #14 vxbush Ah well, ya see, not that many people recognize him (which, of course, pisses him off) and very few of us remember him from his Weather Underground stuff.
But he IS a POS.
And I'll recognize him, should I see him while Obama is campaigning down here in N.C.

Server acting up again.

BBL - with any luck.

Just another smelly, washed up, sold out radical. He's gone from ripe to over-ripe to rotten to biomass. Were this the true face of the enemy, we'd have nothing to worry about. But the enemy is much faster, more alluring, more deadly. This fool is a diversion.

So maybe we should put up posters of what he looks like at all the restaurants. That way, folks can be educated and he can get the notoriety he so desires. See, win-win!

re: #26 realwest

Ayers founded the Chicago Annenberg Challenge Foundation (he comes from a wealthy family) and appointed Barack Obama as the chairman.

re: #43 rosterguard99

No.

re: #44 vxbush

I don't think I've seen one yet.

Forget about any friends who love America, let's start by asking if he has any friends who don't despise America!

What a self-important, arrogant piece of scum he is. The worst anti-American haters are the ones who grew up in a privileged environment and turn on the country that made it all possible. The 1960s nearly destroyed this country and it might happen yet if we can't get that generation to just fucking go away. Permanently.

Is he actually standing on the flag or behind it? Not that that excuses tossing the flag on the ground for a photo op.

I bet Barack [Redacted] Obama will chalk the reaction up to middle America clinging to their guns and religion and say this is not about his campaign.

re: #28 Ellen I'm old enough too. Do you remember when they had a "work accident" in that Townhouse on (I think) West 11th street in the West Village? Blew out the entire building and damaged neighboring buildings on either side and across the street.
They sure packed a LOT of explosives - and guns - back in the day to "carry the fight to the man".
Scumbags, all of 'em.

Nice, another hero just like Lt. for life John F. Kerry.

Thing is History sits just there, on the huge black horse of truth,
History has these huge red glowing fire like eyes that can see,

These little beings of lies and fraud on the face of the honor of the

SO HELP ,"WE THE PEOPLE" AND our God.

Who so ever trod on old glory in such a way, will have a chance change meeting with the spirit of Sgt. of the Army, Special Forces and team lead of S.O.G,, a "mad dog" Jerry Michael Shriver, moment in time if you will.

just confirms my view that the 60's radicals never went away. They now just teach in our schools of "higher" learning. Still, Ayers couldn't pass up a flash-back, stuck on stupid photo-op. How daring he does it tucked up into some alley out of the light of day. An un-intended analogy of the radical mindset of his generation?

LOL!

The big problem with Obama, er, one of the big problems, is that he doesn't know how to distinguish between 'changing America because you love it' and 'changing America because you hate it and think it's the most evil thing on the planet'. If he could make that distinction, it would really help him out. Unfortunately, for him, he doesn't realize his inability to do that and his ignorance and arrogance leads him to initially defend those people, their positions, and his decisions to befriend them. As a president, that's an enormously fatal flaw.

And 40% of American would likely vote for this ass face for President of the United States... Never have I been more fearful of our future...

POS.

Of course, Ears should not be held responsible for the actions of his friends. Whom he can no more disown than he can disown his typical white grandmother. Or his race-baiting batshit-crazy pastor. Or um... hey, look over there! Change!

All of the prominent Weathermen came from families that were at least "comfortable." Even in the Sixties your family didn't have a Greenwich Village townhouse--like the one the kiddies blew up on 11th Street while making bombs--if they were poor.

Yeah, so then I'm talkin' to this white chick, and she's so-o-o not getting it, man, about the long-term view and the urgent need for action now, and I ask her if she even knows who I am. She picks her head up and she's right, it just doesn't matter, cause we're living in the belly of the beast, you know, smoke signals from a whale, and ever since I left my last clip at Hooper's place, I've just been burning the hell out of my fingers. I would give my prized Castro Zippo if I could just find a mcdonald's with a 24/7 drive through, and she doesn't care. Death to America.

david horowitz's book "destructive generation" has a great chapter on the weather underground. at one point the decided that smashing the state had to involve smashing monogamy. this lead to the most awkward orgy in recorded history.

don't have the book in front of me. can't remember if ayers and dohrn were involved in the freaky sex. somebody needs to go through it. loads of embarrassing hippie terrorist stories.

re: #42 Charles

Ayers founded the Chicago Annenberg Challenge Foundation (he comes from a wealthy family) and appointed Barack Obama as the chairman.

So this lifetime's worth of hate for his own country is merely misplaced guilt for being an over-indulged child?

The archetype of the malignant narcissist.

Figures...

re: #42 Charles

As in Walter Annenberg, of TV Guide magazine fame? I thought he was a friend of the Nixons (or was it the Reagans?).

re: #46 MandyManners

re: #43 rosterguard99

Does Obama have any friends who love America?

No.

As we learned from "The Audacity of Hope," Barry O. chose his friends carefully.

Yet another reason to question Obama's character and fitness to be President of the United States - the choices of company who he chose to associate with.

He purposefully sought out racists, extremists, leftists, socialists, marxists, and anti-American terrorists. Obama's version of outreach means extending his hand to terrorists, unabashed anti-American leftists who sought to attack US institutions including terrorist attacks on the US Capitol, racists who think that hope and change is tied to race, and that improving the economy means imposing command economy/anti-capitalist principles that have never worked, and never will.

I was hoping this would turn into a thread. Here's a copy of what I posted in Most Recent Links:

In Fugitive Days, Ayers tries to imagine what happened. Maybe Diana tried to stop the others from their path? Maybe they all drank too much coffee and smoked too many cigarettes?

Maybe Diana saw that this bomb, packed with nails and screws, would have exacted a heavy human toll if it had ever reached its destination—a New Jersey military base. Could she have, in a gesture of sacrifice, crossed the wires herself? "I'll never know what happened," he says. "That's the price I have to pay."

Perfect! - Occam would be proud - create an anti-logical vision of honor and heroism and then top it off with a heavy dose of personalized victimization. The mind boggles!

Didn't his mother travel in those circles? It could be that those kinds of people are who he grew up with...

I wonder what these guys would do if they had pictures of someone standing on the Che flag from Obamessiah's campaign office....

What interests me is that when a non-leftist kills people, he's clearly denunciated as a murderer who gets executed as soon as legally possible... When a leftist does it, he gets pardoned, and gets a job teaching college.

I'm not intending to excuse Timothy McVeigh, but the comparison shows you the depth of mental rot in this country.

I guess the lesson is this: When you decide to start murdering people, make sure you use the right language in your manifesto.

Lotsa' radicals and terrorists back then came from the wealthier layer of society.

It is a common slander of the poor that poverty leads people to violent radicalism. It just doesn't. Most violent radicals are not poor. Truly poor people are more concerned with survival than revolution.

Bill Clinton pardoned him. That's why Hillary can't make hay out of the Weather Underground dealio.

re: #64 buzzsawmonkey
Uh, well at least one of the Weathermen's foot soldiers came from a lower middle class family - my first former wife's family - and believe it or not, that fool is still in hiding! And near as I can tell he never blew up anything or shot at anybody, just mostly carried "coded" messages back and forth while this [DELETED] Ayers is out there looking for photo ops!
But he certainly didn't come from even a middle -middle class family.
The LEADERS all came from families of financial substantce though, you're right about that.

What a self-important, arrogant piece of scum he is. The worst anti-American haters are the ones who grew up in a privileged environment and turn on the country that made it all possible. The 1960s nearly destroyed this country and it might happen yet if we can't get that generation to just fucking go away. Permanently.

You know I've always thought the country would be a lot better off if we could offer these people status as official "Old Hippies".

Buy the farm in Woodstock, NY and dig a BIG ASSED MOAT around it. Give every certified "Old Hippie" PERMANENT residence there with all the comforts of society (well Soviet society anyway) on the provision that they NEVER LEAVE the place ESPECIALLY never leave to vote.

Make the proposition attractive to the Old Hippies by helo-dropping all the drugs seized by the DEA in enforcement actions after they are no longer evidence.

The Old Hippies get to live permanently stoned out in a perpetual "summer of love" while the rest of us get to live in civilization WITHOUT them.

re: #68 Ward Cleaver
If that's the fella associated with TV Guide it was Nixon I'm pretty sure. His son was an infantry grunt in Vietnam.

It should be very apparent by now that Obama and his cohorts do not love America. They despise it so much that they want to remake America in their image. I think they see Obama as their chance to make change, their chance to create a new America, an America that would be unrecognizable to those of us here.

Forget about Obama and his cohorts being simply Marxists or socialists. I would go so far as to claim they are the epitome of liberal fascists. At least with Hillary, you know she will lie, and you know she will do what she needs to in order to save her political skin. And McCain? He'll joust with the base, fight a little with the party leaders, but in the end, he's not nuts, and he is mostly on our side (gotta dump the amnesty there).

But, Obama and his cohorts seem not to care what they say, and the more outrageous their comments, the more their supporters seem to revel in it. What's scary to me is that certain conservatives are blinded to this type of stuff Obama and his cohorts do and say.

re: #73 haakondahl

Yeah, I guess what I meant to say was
