Oh NOES! McCain Palling With Terrorists!

HOLY COW!! Have you SEEN this? Hot off the presses!
This morning John McCain put out a list of 100 former ambassadors who are supporting his campaign. Number two is Leonore Annenberg, the wife of Ambassador William Annenberg, the founder of the Annenberg Institute of Reform, which funded the Annenberg Challenge, which once had two famous board members: former "domestic terrorist" William Ayers and Sen. Barack Obama.



So either we should all be outraged that John McCain is supported by a family who funded a foundation that hired a domestic terrorist, or this whole William Ayers thing is just plain silly. I choose the latter.

***I can't even post on the Obama/Ayers threads anymore because it is such a waste of time and energy. These people will go to their graves swearing that Obama is a domestic terrorist and OMG-they had coffee and dinner etc,etc,etc.***


It's all they have left!

And if they just took a breath and opened their eyes they would see it for what it is, fodder for the die-hard base which is basically all that McCain has left.


take a breath?


open their eyes?


(You're kidding, right?)

***My god if you can't answer a question with a bit of intelligence because you are 'annoyed' heaven help us if you have to negotiate with the Senate you are so eager to have more 'flexibility' with.***

Yeppers!


In 1997, Obama Praised Ayers' Book On The Juvenile Justice System. "The two men were involved in efforts to reform the city's education system. They appeared together on academic panels, including one organized by Michelle Obama to discuss the juvenile justice system, an area of mutual concern. Mr. Ayers's book on the subject won a rave review in The Chicago Tribune by Mr. Obama, who called it 'a searing and timely account.'" (Jo Becker and Christopher Drew, "Pragmatic Politics, Forged On The South Side," The New York Times, 5/11/08)


AND:


  • Obama On William Ayers' "A Kind And Just Parent: The Children Of Juvenile Court": "A searing and timely account of the juvenile court system, and the courageous individuals who rescue hope from despair." (Chicago Tribune, 12/21/97)

  • OOPS...Didn't know that didya????

    So it is the brothers cousins sisters neighbors sister that has a grandmother who is connected to this group?

    ---Sarah is married to a secessionist.------

    Did McCain have a coffee in any of these terrorists homes?

    ----McCain was a member of a group that helped the rebels (Taliban) in Afghanistan------

    Did Cindy work with any of their spouses?

    ----Cindy's dad had mob connections------

    Did one of these members hold a dinner to launch McCain's political campaign?

    -----McCain used Cindy's money, which was her dad's mob money (see above mob reference) to launch his first campaign------

    Did McCain write a good review of one of said terrorists books?

    ----McCain hugged the Vietcon that kept him captive in Vietnam and helped open trade for the Vietnamese gov't------

    -----What else you got? This is easy. lol.------

    You're obviously free to stand by your opinion, I really wouldn't expect any lib to do anything but apologize for Obama's questionable relationships...but ignorance of the facts isn't going to make them go away.
