Wow Todd, You are really grasping at straws on this one. Ayers is now a noted education specialist at the University of Illinois at Chicago and has no ties to Weather Underground anymore.

Obama didn't even know him when Ayers and his wife belonged to the group.

Let's try to focus on the REAL issues in this election. These type of posts are pathetic.

Todd, thanks for the story. There are some pros and cons to the Obama story. But for me the picture says it all. Of course, I have been told by Obama supporters that the picture is fake. Fake or not, there are too many unanswered questions about him, for me to be comfortable. And what is really pathetic, is that some people here don't give other people the respect and space to say have they feel. Thanks again Todd

Todd, the article is a right-wing slam against anything that smacks of progressive or alternative thought. The so-called "education wars" spoken of are no more than one group's pushback on supposedly innovative educational theories and practices pushed by a group of right-wing "educators" who seem to think the old-fashioned ways of teaching our kids isn't good enough anymore. Ayres and his group were looking for accountability and definitive proof of the efficacy of these methods. BTW, did you know Congressman Tom Hayden, who used to be married to Jane Fonda, was once a card-carrying member of the SDS during the '60's? This kind of propaganda is an example of the right's grasping at any straws that they can to discredit a candidate that scares the hell out of them. It belongs with the same crap that tries to paint Obama as a Muslim or that he's a troop-hating radical who wants to give America away. From all I've seen, Bush and his ilk have done a particularly good job of doing that themselves! Anyone who comes along to give America back to the People, where it belongs, will be painted as radical terrorist-lovers. Anti-corporate citizens are going to be marginalized by the Fascists who have been buying and stealing the People's money property for years now and will destroy the Constitution in the process to facilitate their agenda. I was a member of the same society that begat the Weathermen and I know a lot about them. To call them terrorists is denying the part the government played in making their existence necessary. I'm only surprised they haven't been resurgent because of the crimes of the present government against the People.
