Hooray for Ayers (the author, not the terrorist)

As Election Spotlight Dims, Ayers The Author Speaks

I regularly check NPR because they are so horrible, but every once in a while they have something great. This is not one of those times, but this goes to the other extreme. They are giving Bill Ayers “the author” so much air time and trying so hard to get everyone off this dirt-bag’s back that it makes me want to puke.

The Republican ticket tried to make an issue of Bill Ayers, a onetime 1960s militant, and his Chicago hometown connections to President-elect Obama. Playing up the Obama-Ayers connection at a rally, vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin said, "Our opponent is someone who sees America as imperfect enough to pal around with terrorists who targeted their own country."

Uh, that is because it is a big deal to try to kill Americans. It should be an issue to anyone who cares about human rights. Sarah had it just right. If someone launched their political career in Timothy McVay’s house would they be very popular? Or is it that McVay was more successful because he actually killed people? So we like Ayers now because he is a community organizer? We didn’t give Tim the chance to make it all up to us. Don’t get me wrong here, I do not support McVay, I only make the point that they are the same, regardless of the number of body-bags, they both had the same goals; in the short run anyway. Ayers had big plans for this country and still does.

Ayers' political image in 2008 often boiled down to his mug shot from the 1960s — wild-haired and defiant. He looked like the organizer of a group that would set off bombs to protest the war in Vietnam and racism in America — the Weather Underground.  

That's the image still held by conservative activists… 

If it looks like a duck? It has nothing to do with what he looks like (unless you are a liberal) as it is what he did. He WAS the organizer of a group that would set off bombs in their own country and target their own neighbors. It doesn’t matter what he was protesting. He went about it the wrong way. Thank goodness he was a failure.

Conspicuously absent was Fugitive Days, about his decade evading the FBI. There's a new paperback edition out, but Don Allen said he forgot to stock it.

Don Allen, it says, is the organizer of the event and manages the restaurant's bookstore where they were holding it.

and… he… FORGOT… to stock it. Right, that’s it. Forgot all about that silly little book.

Ayers' hair is short now. Standing at the microphone, he wore a sweater, sport coat and jeans. Both of his ears are pierced. He carried a file folder and a water bottle.

Very sexy. He looks good so he must be good. If it looks like a duck, remember? Amazing.

And in a voice that didn't exactly evoke "fire-breathing radical," he quoted a poem by Gwendolyn Brooks about a boy who vandalized a school. The boy says he wanted to create: " 'If not a note, then a hole, if not an overture, then a desecration. But I shall create.' And that's the aspiration of every human being — to create, to be seen, to be noticed, to make a difference, to leave your footprint in the sand. And if we don't provide that for kids, if we don't open that creative vent, then we for sure open the destructive vent."

Is this what happened to you Ayers? Dang, man. I forgive you for trying to kill your neighbors. I didn’t know….

Thank goodness the tone of voice was not a “fire-breathing radical” tone. Then the words must be okay. If it sounds like a duck, right?

Actually, this is a good point (you’ll note he is supporting the boy who vandalized the school and this really says what we need to know about this dirt bag) although this doesn’t and shouldn’t excuse the kid for damaging property that didn’t belong to him. We do need to help our children with this outlet. And, oh wait, sorry the smoke is getting really thick in here and I almost stopped seeing the truth of the situation here. Ayers is an attempted murderer walking around with access to high level and high kill rate areas of this country. He wouldn’t have the rocks to do anything himself but he has a bigger following now, and the lemmings will continue to mass. He could be a real problem in the future, giving marching orders in brightly lit board rooms instead of dark back rooms making nail bombs.

Ayers circled the big questions: What about the campaign? Would he do what he has refused to do — apologize for the Weather Underground?

He joked that he doesn't like being described as a guy of the '60s.

"I am so much a guy of right now. OK, I lived in the '60s. I apologize. You hear that, Clarence? I just apologized."

…for living in the 60’s. Thanks Bill, I trust you now.

After that reflection on the election, a few people got up and left.

Hatemongers.

Ayers took one more question. Then people crowded around him as he signed copies of his books — about education.

Not about terrorism, see? About education. Good things. So he is good. If it walks like a duck, right?

It ain’t a duck. It is a failed terrorist, and if you see a duck, you are fooling yourself. 

And now for another fast breaking news story...

Currently the number one story on CNN.com: Obama may have to give up e-messaging

Now, I don’t regularly pay much attention to CNN, because frankly, they suck. But I thought this was hilarious. This is the most read story right now? Seriously?

No wonder he got elected.

This cult-of-personality, superhero, mega-star persona he has going is (strangely enough,) getting even more stupid as time goes on. In this article they talk to a ton of people about this, I mean they really did their homework on this hard hitting “news” story: Scarlett Johansson, Scott McClellan, Mike McCurry, Joe Lockhart, Benjamin Nugent, and Lawrence Welkowitz.

The things Amerikans care about are so unbelievable that it is no wonder we are sinking into the toilet. He is the President-Elect. He is about to have your future to fill his empty blackberry hand, and his other orchestrating the house and the senate to his music. He will be able to do anything he wants to you. And you think you are going to get free gas, all the CEO’s are going to take a pay-cut and give it to you, you will “get” to join a union and get “fair” pay finally. I hate to break it to you, but what you will get, is more regulation on your bosses. More debacles like we are seeing the fruits of, with the car makers and the banks. This is the result of regulations. How many people are losing their jobs at Citi now? More than 50,000.

I guess you can say, “Well, what can I do? I have no control over this stuff!” This is of course a lie, we already did it. We voted for this man, or failed to vote for the other guy, (who, granted, wouldn’t have been much better. But at least he had a conservative on the ticket.) We voted for people in the house and the senate who started all these crises in the first place. I say, we, but of course I don’t mean me and probably not you. You would never vote for a person whose only promise is “change” or whose campaign slogan is, “She’s the Democrat!”

It’s so easy, isn’t it, to bury your head in the “interesting” news stories of the day. Amerika elected a man who will encourage this kind of thing, and worse. He will take your freedoms, whether you need them or not. We are going to turn around someday and say, “What the hell happened?”

Be afraid, Amerika. Be very afraid.

Thank you President Obama. Thank you.

I found this Open letter to America, (what will be known by me on Jan 20,2009 as 'Amerika.') and saw a lot of truth in it. 

It is not mine and is by Freeman over at 12-Foot Pole.

Enjoy. 

Open Letter to America:

Thank you America for electing President Obama.  President Obama promised to save the world.  I don't know much about that but I know he will save me.
Forget taxes, health care, and energy.  Obama will sign new laws into place that will increase my income ten-fold -- TAX FREE.

Obama will enact laws that ban almost all firearms legally owned today.   He will also require gun owners obtain a license to continue owning any guns not banned.  At the same time, gun owners will be required to register each firearm they own.  Obama will also increase taxes on firearms by at least 500%.
By enacting these laws Obama will provide me --a career criminal-- with a very large pool of victims.  First, many Americans will actually allow the government to ban and confiscate their firearms.  For those guns that are still legal, the tax increase will make them far too expensive for any poor people to afford.  These defenseless people will be my primary victims.  Since they will be unarmed they will be unable to defend themselves against me --the career criminal-- who will certainly not give any of my guns away.

For other victims I will send out fake firearm registration forms which people will fill out and return to me thinking they are official forms.   I may go door to door also.  My second baby's mama works with the Sheriffs department and she can get actual lists of registered owners and firearms for me if needed. Breaking into those homes will provide me a great source of guns to sell on the black market.  And, thanks to the 500% tax increase the black market price of my stolen guns just skyrocketed.

The best part is that once Obama successfully bans guns I can steal them without any possible criminal penalties.  A person keeping a banned gun illegally can't call the police about the theft or he will be criminally prosecuted too.  And he can't shoot me for the same reason.  I can walk into any home with banned guns (I have a list remember) and can do anything I want without any fear at all.  Rape, murder, and robbery are mostly what I do.  And black market prices will go even higher with a ban than with the tax increase.

All this free rape, murder, and robbery is not just easy thanks to Obama; it as all tax free to me --the career criminal!!!  These new policies will make me even more money than my welfare and disability payments combined.

Thank you President Obama.  Thank you.
