McCain Lied about Ayers: A scathing indictment of malicious intent

[nation-x]

Finally... some of these myths are being addressed:

(Bill) Ayers and Obama ran a radical education foundation together.

Politifact says "Pants on fire": Not a radical group, and Ayers didn't run it

Did Obama "lie" about Ayers?

(paraphrase) Obama launched his career in Ayers living room

New Yorker says he launched it at Ramada Inn:

Obama’s campaign began without much excitement. He had ties to so many of the city’s élite factions that the local press described him as “a well-connected attorney.” In August, the Chicago Sun-Times noted that Valerie Jarrett was hosting “a private autograph party” for Obama. His memoir was turning him into a figure of some acclaim. The same month, the Hyde Park Herald, which later called the book “a local indie hit,” ran a flattering profile that highlighted a theme from “Dreams”: how Chicago helped Obama end a long journey of self-discovery, a narrative that helped defuse any notion that Obama was a carpetbagger. “I came home in Chicago,” he told the newspaper. “I began to see my identity and my individual struggles were one with the struggles that folks face in Chicago.”

A month later, on September 19th, Obama invited some two hundred supporters to a lakefront Ramada Inn to announce his candidacy for the State Senate, and some of what he said sounded very much like the Obama of recent months. “Politicians are not held to highest esteem these days,” he told the crowd. “They fall somewhere lower than lawyers. . . . I want to inspire a renewal of morality in politics. I will work as hard as I can, as long as I can, on your behalf.” Alice Palmer introduced Obama, and an account in the Hyde Park Herald quoted more from her speech than from his; it was, after all, chiefly her endorsement that certified him as a plausible candidate. “In this room, Harold Washington announced for mayor,” Palmer said. “Barack Obama carries on the tradition of independence in this district. . . . His candidacy is a passing of the torch.”

Jeez... sounds like Hillary dropped a poison pill and McCain decided to pick it up and take it.

It doesn't matter.

With the webmasters who post here exempted, Americans think Obama is "an Ayraab". Nothing will change their minds.

The world for free-thinking, intelligent Americans is defined by vile, brain-dead McCain supporters who would rather see Jerry Falwell at the helm than Ghandi or JFK...

We will all live with the consequences...

:D
