re: #13 SanFranciscoZionist

Some of these guys, they’re just not very exciting, so they have to be built up a little. I mean, Ayers was really a Weatherman, so he’s ideal, but some of these guys are just boring. Gotta jazz ‘em up, make ‘em scary.

You know what bothers me most about Bill Ayers? The fact that he remains unrepentant and unapologetic for his crimes and violence. In other words, he’s still no more than a smartass kid.

He wasn’t then or is now a particularly smart guy- when you have to establish your bona fides throwing bombs and then bragging about it, intellectual depth isn’t a real strong suit. He likes the attention, he likes being a bad boy and probably hasn’t had an original thought in decades.

Other than the spoiled brats of suburbia, Ayers is pied piper to no one.

Why the right have turned this twerp into an icon they can hate I will never understand.

They have Che to chew on, Castro to castigate and Lenin and Stalin to smash. That’s enough evil for 100 lifetimes.

I miss Bill Buckley. A Lot.
