This is retarded. Ayers has been doing more work for charity the last ten years than you have your entire life.

Zayd Dohrn? As in Bernadine Dohrn, another former weatherperson? She’s a lecturer at UChicago now. Her and Ayers, then? Huh.

That said the whole business is a stupid distraction, and the implication that Obama is a terrorist sympathizer nauseating no matter which side of the spectrum you come from.

Jerry Falwell is dead, although I don’t think that discounts your point. The same year he spoke at Columbia he spoke at Liberty University, Jerry Falwell’s barely accredited university.

yes, you did. no one noticed, though, did they?
do you know why?
because no one reads your blog.
and do you know why that is?
because your blog sucks.
you don’t know this, but that’s probably because you write all of it and your writing is smug despite the fact that it is overwhelmingly obtuse.
also, you are a dick for smugly posting on bwog every time you scoop them.
cheers, you suck.

to mention that Ayer’s son, Zayd Dohrn, is a PhD candidate in Comparative Lit. He’s written plays about his childhood experiences in hiding on a Northern Californian commune, and taught my section of U Writing.

I have more respect for Obama knowing he was friends with Ed Said.

McCain actively seeking Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson’s endorsement is far more worrisome. Trying to impose a state religion & dis-uniting the country is almost as bad as Terrorism, and McCain’s links to these two is far more direct than this 6-degrees-of-separation game.
