I don’t know… the similarities between Obama’s work and Ayers’ are quite striking. I think it’s enough to prove that Obama’s work isn’t really his own. But I don’t see how this means that Ayers wrote Obama’s book.

Obama wasn’t a very good writer. He didn’t have much to say. And he was busy, and working under a deadline. He must have read _Fugitive Days_, and he probably just copied its style and ripped off a few stories here and there. It makes him something of a plagiarist, but it doesn’t mean Ayers wrote his book for him.

I have been convinced for some time that Obama is really without substance, a carefully crafted persona, a puppet. (OK, I admit that was a pretty lame attempt to include the three part construction at the end of a sentence that the article mentioned :-)). I don’t think he is Bill Ayers’ puppet, since IMO Ayers is also a big nothing. I think Obama might be a wholly owned subsidiary of George Soros, Inc., so I am much more interested in what he (Soros) intends to do with the presidency than I am in Obama’s connections with assorted creepazoids, already proven beyond the shadow of a doubt, as far as I’m concerned.

Plagiarize your own memoir.

Spent some long minutes here, trying to imagine plagiarizing my own memoir. The combination of pathos, mendacity, egoism and shallowness are just breathtaking. Not that one is incapable of all of those—but to that degree. The primary animating force that moves Obama appears to be a craving to Be Somebody. Well, by hell he is Somebody now, ain’t he.
