This article is about the son, John Murtagh, of a judge who's house was bombed when he was 9 years old and Ayers and his wife were implicated. His statements are included in the article.


"Obama's campaign is busy fudging. That's a polite word for "lying." Barack Obama's top political adviser is claiming Obama simply didn't know Ayers' history when they first met. Bomber? What bomber?

Right.

"If that's true, Obama has to be the dumbest man who ever graduated from Columbia University and Harvard Law School," snorts Murtagh. "I don't buy that at all."

Murtagh believes the relationships between Barack, his wife, Michelle, Bill Ayers and his wife, Bernardine, goes back 30 years, to Michelle's time at Sidley Austin, the famous Washington, D.C., law firm that also employed Bernardine Dohrn.
Murtagh doesn't blame Obama for what Bill Ayers and his friends did and supported. He blames Obama for picking a man like Ayers as a friend and mentor -- and then covering up the friendship.

In politics things get complicated. Truth becomes hard to find.

But when you are about to elect someone commander in chief, it would be good to know he can lay his hands on some of the stuff, in case he ever needs it.

"The night they attacked our home, they also firebombed an army recruiting station out in Brooklyn and police patrol cars outside of Greenwich Village," notes Murtagh. "Three weeks later they accidentally blew themselves up. They intended to attack the officer's club at Fort Dix." "

I wonder if Barack would like to meet this guy?

I find it strange that everyone knows who Ayers was. I personally had never heard of him until all of this came up. Even my parents hadn't heard of him. They had heard of the weather underground, but not Ayers by name.

Maybe we were just in the dark while everyone else in America knew...?

Let's see...Barack was 16 years old 30 years ago and Michelle was even younger (14).

What BULLSH!T !!!!

He didn't say they WORKED together! They both worked in the same law firm.

He is not accusing Barack and Michelle of bombing his house - he's just asking why would barack want to work with Ayers....at all.

I had never heard of him either....presidential campaigns bring a lot of people to light, don't they?

Why would Israel want to work with the Palestinians in a peace accord? For the common good.

Read your post again !!!

I remember him his picture was all over the papers.

That's pretty much my point. When Obama originally met Ayers, there is, in fact, a possibility that Obama had no idea who he was.
