WHAT ABOUT BARACK OBAMA AND WILLIAM AYERS - ‘60S RADICAL BOMBER? UPDATED.
Well, CNN (well-known functionary of the vast right-wing conspiracy) has taken a look:
.
.
.
.
I guess the question that pops into my mind is something like: “Would Anderson Cooper be asking ‘What’s the big deal?’ if the two principals were John McCain and ERIC RUDOLPH?”
.
.
Somehow, I kinda doubt that Cooper, and the legacy media in general, would find that relationship copacetic. So…..why the difference?
.
.
UPDATE: In case you’ve been buying the dismissal of this connection with something like “He did something terrible when I was a child, so what’s the big deal?” CHECK THIS OUT
An idea of what Ayers has in mind for America’s schools was provided in his own words, not 40 years ago when Obama was eight years old, but less than two years ago in November 2006 at the World Education Forum in Caracas hosted by dictator Hugo Chavez.
With Chavez at his side, Ayers voiced his support for “the political educational reforms under way here in Venezuela under the leadership of President Chavez. We share the belief that education is the motor-force of revolution. . . . I look forward to seeing how . . . all of you continue to overcome the failures of capitalist education as you seek to create something truly new and deeply humane.”
Ayers told the great humanitarian Chavez: “Teaching invites transformations, it urges revolutions large and small. La educacion es revolucion.” It is that form of socialist revolution that Ayers, and Obama, have worked to bring to America.
.
.
READ IT ALL, and remember…..one of the two Presidential candidates carried on a long-term working relationship with this man, including working on educational issues in Chicago. A relationship that ended ONLY IN 2005 , when the first national senatorial campaign began. Think carefully - how much do you really know about your candidate?
