Palin hits Obama for 'terrorist' connection

[Monkeydad]

No connection, eh? They just served on a questionable committee for 3 years together, spent non-work time together and Obama launched his first Illinois Congressional run FROM AYER'S HOME! Ayers is on the record describing himself and Obama as friends.

The man is a terrorist who bombed Federal buildings and on September 11, 2001 said he wished he could have done more. For a Presidential candidate to even be around someone like this makes him very untrustworthy for the job.

But nah, they barely knew each other. Sure...

Obama has a LONG list of friends and associates of questionable morality. This is not a one-time stretch, it's a pattern of bad judgment and unclear intentions by Obama.

Rev. Wright
Tony Rezko
William Ayers
Rashid Khalidi
Nadhmi Auchi
Frank Davis
Louis Farrakhan
Raila Ordinga
Daniel Ortega
others...


This is something that should have been brought up before he was nominated for the Democrat ticket, but the media didn't want to damage his campaign.

Also, the NEW YORK TIMES put an article on their front page to raise the issue a few days ago.

But nah, we can't look into his background, that would be racist.

I'm with you on this. If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and looks like a duck - it's a duck.

What does "questionable committee" mean?

I spend non-work time with thousands of people. I was in a bar just yesterday with a regular who watches Bears games while I watch Redskins games. We don't hang out or anything, but we run into each other because we live in the same neighborhood, go to the same bar, and run into each other when we are trying to watch our home town teams play football. Let's just say, for argument's sake, that he's a felon. Do my run-ins with the guy say anything about my character? Nope. None. Nada.

Where did you get the info that Obama launched his campaign from Ayers' home?

Did you read the article? It discounted the minimal connections as just that, minimal and insigificant.

Why did race even enter your mind? When did anyone in this thread allege racism? People have alleged "retaradism," but not racism. Are you saying that people can't criticize Obama without being called racist? Yeah, because Obama has been immune from attacks because of his race.

What funny is that Palin has had people all over the place looking into her past but that seems to be fair ground. I myself not running for any office would have never associated myself with someone with his known past.

It's these kind of smear campaigns that make me an independent. I'm so tired of each "side" trying to make mountains out of mole hills and resorting to the same lame political tactics. What's even more amazing is how very smart people manage to buy into "their side's" bulls&#t.

Obama is putting his gloves on. I am sure he would have been better served to do town hall meetings with McCain.

[wilsowilso]

That is some serious criminal behavior.
