As Sarah Palin tries to connect the imaginary dots of terror between Bill Ayres and Obama, Palin should take a very close look at the relationship between John McCain and convicted criminal G. Gordon Liddy.(*) After all McCain and Liddy have been friends for years and McCain has stated “I’m proud of you, I’m proud of your family.”(*) Liddy has contributed to McCain’s campaign and has held fund raisers at his home for McCain.

For the record, Bill Ayres has never been arrested, he turned himself into authorities and he never went to jail. The hypocrisy of the McCain/Palin team is stunning. McCain’s best friend is a convicted political terrorist and Todd and Sarah Palin were members of the separatist group The Alaska Independence Party. People in igloos shouldn’t throw fireballs.

Liddy and McCain:

Liddy has donated $5,000 to McCain’s campaigns since 1998, including $1,000 in February 2008. In 1998, Liddy(*) held a fundraiser at his home for McCain. Liddy was reportedly scheduled to speak at another fundraiser for McCain in 2000. McCain’s campaign on Liddy’s “character”:

McCain campaign officials said Liddy’s character will appeal to many voters because he was following orders from President Nixon and kept silent afterward.

“Liddy’s judgment might be in question, but I don’t think his character is,” said Ed Walker, the York County chairman of McCain’s campaign. “He was following orders just like any good soldier, and he didn’t tell on anybody. He felt like he was on a mission and kept his silence.”

Last November, McCain went on his radio show. Liddy greeted him as “an old friend,” and McCain sounded like one.

“I’m proud of you, I’m proud of your family,” he gushed. “It’s always a pleasure for me to come on your program, Gordon, and congratulations on your continued success and adherence to the principles and philosophies that keep our nation great.”

G. Gordon Libby now a conservative talk show host, served four and a half years in prison for his role in the Watergate break-in and the break-in at the office of the psychiatrist of Daniel Ellsberg, the military analyst who leaked the Pentagon Papers. Libby was charged with conspiracy; burglary 2 charges; wiretapping; contempt of Court and(*)contempt of Congress.

Washington Post: Watergate Players:

• Liddy was convicted for his role in the Watergate break-in, for conspiracy in the Daniel Ellsberg case and for contempt of court, spending about four and a half years in prison. In 1986, a federal appeals court found Liddy liable for $20,499 in back taxes on Watergate slush-fund money, rejecting his claim that his benefits did not exceed $45,000. As one of the White House “plumbers,” Liddy spent about $300,000 engineering political dirty tricks and the Watergate break-in. Liddy lives in Fort Washington, Md.

In his book Will: The Autobiography of G. Gordon Liddy, Liddy has acknowledged preparing to kill someone during the Ellsberg break-in “if necessary”; plotting to murder journalist Jack Anderson; plotting with a “gangland figure” to murder Howard Hunt to stop him from cooperating with investigators; plotting to firebomb the Brookings Institution; and plotting to kidnap protesters “leftist guerillas” at the 1972 Republican National Convention. Liddy using Nazi terminology, outlined his plan to Attorney Genral John Mitchell and memebers of the Nixon(*) administration.

Kill someone during the Ellsberg break-in:

I can run for miles, and there were numerous deeply shadowed hiding places in the area from which I could pause to warn the men inside with the transceiver. Only if there were no other recourse would I have used the knife, but use it I would, if I’d had to; I had given my men word that I would protect them.

For the period of the actual breaking and entering, I posted myself in a narrow space between two buildings concealed by more shrubbery, from which I could see clearly the area of the break-in, all of the private, and much of the public parking lot. [Page 167]

I was completely candid with him [Egil (Bud) Krogh] in my report, showing him everything: the suitcase, tools, even the knife I had carried. He asked me, incredulous, “Would you really have used it — I mean, kill somebody?”

“Only if there were absolutely no other way. But yes, I would, if necessary to protect my men. I gave them my word I’d cover them.” [Page 169]

Planning the murder journalist Jack Anderson:

Liddy wrote that he and GOP operative Hunt had become convinced that Anderson had compromised an overseas intelligence source’s safety and must be assassinated:

Afterward Hunt and I discussed the recommendation further. It was decided to include the suggestion that the assassination of Jack Anderson be carried out by Cubans already recruited for the intelligence arm of the Committee to Re-Elect the President. [Pages 208-209]

“Gangland Figure” to murder Howard Hunt:

While in prison, Liddy came to the conclusion that White House officials might want his partner, Hunt, killed rather than risk Hunt cooperating with the Watergate grand jury. Liddy wrote in his bookthat he made plans to carry out such an assassination order:

By now I knew that the fee for a killing in the D.C. jail was two “boxes.” I’d be an immediate suspect were Hunt to be killed, so it would have to be a contract sanction and I’d have to arrange an airtight alibi. That would be easy; just have myself put back in deadlock prior to the event. It wouldn’t do, however, to go around soliciting Hunt’s execution. Prisons are filled with informers. For that reason I sought the advice of a gangland figure I knew and could trust.

My friend was sharp and as soon as I began to broach the subject, he nodded his understanding but jumped to the conclusion I was referring to [James] McCord, now free on bond. He offered immediately to have McCord shot. I had to explain that I appreciated his offer but had someone else in mind.

I explained carefully to my friend that I had not yet received orders to kill Hunt, and that under no circumstances was he to be harmed without my specific authorization, which I would not give in the absence of unequivocal orders from my superiors. [Page 309]

Liddy wrote that after Hunt cooperated with investigators, he awaited an order to kill him, but “because the message never came, Hunt lives” [Page 311].

Firebomb the Brookings Institution:

We devised a plan that entailed buying a used but late-model fire engine of the kind used by the District of Columbia fire department and marking it appropriately; uniforms for a squad of Cubans and their training so their performance would be believable. Thereafter, Brookings would be firebombed by use of a delay mechanism timed to go off at night so as not to endanger lives needlessly. The Cubans in the authentic-looking fire engine would “respond” minutes after the timer went off, enter, get anybody in there out, hit the vault, and get themselves out in the confusion of other fire apparatus arriving, calmly loading “rescued” material into a van. The bogus engine would be abandoned at the scene. The taking of the material from the vault would be discovered and the fire engine traced to a cut-out buyer. There would be a lot of who-struck-John in the liberal press, but because nothing could be proved the matter would lapse into the unsolved-mystery category. [Page 171-72]

The plan was not approved by the White House because the purchase of the fire engine was too expensive. [Page 172].

Kidnap protesters “leftist guerillas”:

Prior to the Republican Convention, Liddy met with a group of White House officials, including Attorney General John Mitchell, to discuss ways to prevent attacks on the convention by “leftist guerrillas”:

I proposed to emulate the Texas Rangers by identifying the leaders through intelligence before the attack got under way, kidnap them, drug them, and hold them in Mexico until after the convention was over, then release them unharmed and still wondering what happened. Leaderless, the attack would be further disrupted by faked assembly orders and messages, and if it ever did get off the ground it would be much easier to repel. The sudden disappearances, which I labeled on the chart in the original German, Nacht und Nebel (”Night and Fog”), would strike fear into the hearts of the leftist guerrillas. The chart labeled the team slated to carry out the night and fog plan as a “Special Action Group” and, when John Mitchell asked, “What’s that?” and expressed doubt that it could perform as I had explained, I grew impatient.

In 1994, after the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas, Liddy instructed his radio audience on how to shoot Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms agents:

G. Gordon Liddy, radio show, 8/26/94

“Now if the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms comes to disarm you and they are bearing arms, resist them with arms. Go for a head shot; they’re going to be wearing bulletproof vests. … Kill the sons of (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)es.”

G. Gordon Liddy, Crossfire, 4/25/95

“What I said is, if a federal agent comes knocking at your door– specifically BATF–says I have a search warrant, open the door, let him in, stand aside and let him search. What I said is, if they come shooting–they’re shooting at you now–you have the right to self-defense, and in that event, if they’ve got a body-protection armor on, you are best to shoot to the groin area.”

You betcha, Country First!

I was wondering when McCain's connection to G. Gordon Liddy was going to come to light. McCain has close connections to several other nasties within the GOP network.

I stopped at your first couple of paragraphs it was a lie so what ever else you wrote is not worth reading.. Liddy was not a terrorist. He is a nut. Liddy has not gave money or is he part of McCain Palin fundraisers.

Liddy served four and a half years in prison in connection with his conviction for his role in breaking into the DNC's office during the 1972 election (Watergate) and the break-in at the office of the psychiatrist of Daniel Ellsberg, the military analyst who leaked the Pentagon Papers. Liddy has acknowledged preparing to kill someone during the Ellsberg break-in “if necessary”; plotting to murder journalist Jack Anderson; plotting with a “gangland figure” to murder Howard Hunt to stop him from cooperating with investigators; plotting to firebomb the Brookings Institution; and plotting to kidnap “leftist guerillas” at the 1972 Republican National Convention — a plan he outlined to the Nixon administration using terminology borrowed from the Nazis. (The murder, firebombing, and kidnapping plots were never carried out; the break-ins were.) During the 1990s, Liddy instructed his radio audience on multiple occasions on how to shoot Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms agents.

And this is not as bad as what Ayres did because....????Really

Well let me see Liddy is a liar and a thief he planned to kill someone but never did so he is a dreamer.
Ayers planned and did bomb the pentagon.and then said he didn't do enough bombing you tell me.

Wait, so because he didnt get to carry out his plan its ok? It's ok for your candidate to associate with this sort of trash? Your posts are getting more and more desperate, your defense replies are weak and of no substance.
