AYERS' SUPPORTERS BEG FOR HELP

Unreal! These people are begging for support? Sure. You can have my support. Right after your man expresses his support for America...all of America. And then, only after I sit and think about it for 40 years.

Here's what the whiners are saying:

Dear friends and colleagues in the field of education,

It seems that the character assassination and slander of Bill Ayers and other people who have known Obama is not about to let up. While an important concern is the dishonesty of this campaign and the slanderous McCarthyism they are using to attack Obama, we also feel an obligation to support our friend and colleague Bill Ayers. Many, many educators have reached out, asking what they could do, seeking a way to weigh in against fear and intimidation. Many of us have been talking and we agree that this one gesture, a joint statement signed by hundreds of hard-working educators, would be a great first step. Such a statement may be distributed through press releases or ads in the future.

Please click on ENDORSE THIS STATEMENT in order to sign the following statement and, just as importantly, FORWARD it to other friends and colleagues who would like to stand up against these attacks. (*Title/Affiliation will be listed for identification purposes only. Please be assured that we have no intention of using your name for any other purpose than beneath the words on this page.)

Thank you!

Friends and supporters of Bill Ayers

This is my favorite part from the beggar's plea:

The current characterizations of Professor Ayers---“unrepentant terrorist,” “lunatic leftist”---are unrecognizable to those who know or work with him. It’s true that Professor Ayers participated passionately in the civil rights and antiwar movements of the 1960s, as did hundreds of thousands of Americans. His participation in political activity 40 years ago is history; what is most relevant now is his continued engagement in progressive causes, and his exemplary contribution---including publishing 16 books--- to the field of education.

Oh, the characterizations as a "lunatic leftist" and an "unrepentant terrorist" are "unrecognizable" to those who know him now? Is that so? How about this? I wonder if any of them recognize this:



Well, let me see if I can help them out. What I "recognize" is a man who sees America as some amorphous, faceless entity instead of the citizens, all the citizens, who occupy its borders. Then I see a man pissing on those people out of his ignorance. That should help these freakshows "recognize" Ayers now.
