Because Bill Ayers is a lot easier to connect to Obama than the actual historical monsters/major villains you mention…

(What Ayers did was wrong but obviously not in the same league as Che or Castro I think we can all agree on that…)

Yes- and as you note, Ayers was no Stalin, to be sure to me he is just a criminal pretending to be something else). He was and remains a lightweight ass.

All the right (and any civilized person) had to do was stay focused on the evil and excesses of the Stalins and Ches and Castros. Maybe then they wouldn’t be lionized by the academics.

Classical liberals were not evil nor malignant. Never were.

I miss them as well.
