The cover up on Obama's friends' complicity in murder

The Chicago Tribune won't tell the truth about William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn's complicity in a murder caused by a Weatherman cell's bombing.

Excerpt from FBI agent Larry Grathwohl's testimony before a U.S Senate subcommittee:

" When he [Bill Ayers] returned, we had another meeting at which time―and this is the only time that any Weathermen told me about something that someone else had done―and Bill started off telling us about the need to raise the level of the struggle and for stronger leadership inside the Weathermen ‘focals’ [i.e., cells] and inside the Weatherman organization as a whole. And he cited as one of the real problems was that someone like Bernardine Dohrn had to plan, develop and carry out the bombing of the police station in San Francisco, and he specifically named her as the person that committed that act."

Oh, but Ayers and Dohrn are just "casual acquaintances" of Obama's, and "all that stuff happened when Obama was just a kid", right?

Those particular lies have been laid to rest too many times to count.

Noteworthy:


"In 1995, they held a fundraiser for Obama, and Obama continues to defend his relationship with them despite their anti-American comments as late as 2007. Hot Air's Ed Morrissey explains why all of this is important:

'Obama and the Left want to demand an end to the probing of the years-long Obama-Ayers association as irrelevant. Never mind that Ayers has openly bragged of bombing the Pentagon. Never mind that Obama and Ayers voted to give $75,000 to Rashid Khalidi, a Yasser Arafat protege in the PLO, during their tenure with the Woods Foundation.'

The past two days, John Hinderaker posted numerous audio clips of Ayers's and Dohrn's hateful comments both past and present. Radio host Guy Benson uncovered the audio. 'These clips show that Obama's pals are as unhinged as ever, and they severely undermine Team Obama's spin that Ayers and Dohrn are now 'respectable' members of the political 'mainstream,'"

....and:

"Next, let's examine Obama's claim that his connection to Ayers and Dohrn is 'tenuous' and 'phony.' Is it phony that Obama's political coming-out party in the mid-1990s was hosted by Ayers and Dohrn? What about the panel discussions in which Ayers and Obama both took part—that were organized by Michelle Obama? Tenuous? I suppose the goodbye party for prominent Israel basher and Arafat apologist Rashid Khalidi, attended by Obama, Ayers and Dohrn, is also unworthy of discussion. That Khalidi himself hosted a fundraiser for Obama's first Congressional campaign must be completely irrelevant, too.

Then there's the pesky fact that Obama and Ayers served together on the board of the Woods Fund for three years—and continued to do so even after Ayers was quoted in the New York Times fondly recalling his days as a bomber, and despairing that he hadn't 'done more.' (This quote, the Obama fact sheet reminds us, comes from an interview that just happened to be published on 9/11—Ayers had made the incendiary remarks earlier. I don't know about you, but that makes me feel a lot better). The funds Obama and Ayers helped control at the Woods Foundation funneled thousands of dollars into both Khalidi's organization and the now-infamous Trinity United Church of Christ. Irrelevant, phony distractions? So what if the Obama campaign's top strategist concedes that the Senator's relationship with the terrorist is 'friendly'?"



Stay tuned, folks. I suspect there's LOTS more to come.

  1. Good post, Bubba. It seems that there is plenty of material on Obama's past entanglements to justify an independent media campaign leading to the fall election. If such a campaign were well done, and independently of the McCain campaign, it could be very effective if it exposes all of this stuff-- the church, the Chicago machine politics, the Ayers connection, Rezko, etc.

  2. Don't count on the LSM to expose anything about their anointed Messiah. George Soros and his money machine will see that the LSM stays hushed on these facts that need to be brought to the forefront. Soros may succeed in buying the Presidency in 08. He failed in 04 and has been one angry man since that time. He see's the opportunity destroy the US and Obama is his key. If he fails in buying the Presidency this time around look for him to pull a "heist" on the US dollar as he did on the Bank of England in the 80's. He has been laying the ground work for some time now.
