Reading Bill Ayers: Ayers’ Weather Underground Manifesto, Prairie Fire: The Politics of Revolutionary Anti-Imperialism
Via MM:
Zombie, the Internet investigative reporter/photojournalist whose work I’ve spotlighted here often, is busy doing the Ayers’ research the MSM won’t do.
Over the weekend, Zombie uploaded Barack Obama’s cheery book review of his neighbor’s tome on the juvenile court system.
Now, Zombie has unearthed Ayers’ Weather Underground manifesto, “Prairie Fire.”
Print it out, read it, pass it around.
Zombie asks and the answers: How Is This Relevant to the 2008 Presidential Campaign?
Obama and his supporters at first claimed he barely knew who Ayers was, but when public awareness of the connections between Obama and Ayers became too numerous and too strong to deny, Obama’s supporters have now begun resorting to a fallback position: that William Ayers wasn’t such a bad guy after all, and that it is no shame to be associated with him. The now-standard talking points are:
- Ayers was simply protesting against the Vietnam War, and a lot of people protested against the Vietnam War back then, so there’s no shame in that.
- Ayers was never actually convicted of setting any bombs or killing anyone, so there’s no real proof that he ever did anything wrong.
- Ayers is now a respected, mainstream, mild-mannered and popular professor, so obviously his political views couldn’t have been that extreme.
That is exactly how the MSM and the Obama Campaign are trying to justify this. Ayers is a communist, he said so himself:
Ayers was planning to “seize power” in a violent communist takeover of the United States:
That is just one portion, Zombie has tons more. Remember: Print it out, read it, pass it around.
