I appreciated this article and hearing from Bill Ayers after his name was dropped as a terrorist time and again by Palin. I saw the GMA "interview" but I couldn't help understand why everyone is not interviewed as Bill Ayers was. Palin for example, could have been interviewed about her assertions, what she knew, how she knew it and what evidence she had. But Palin had no clue-she just needed to incite fear in an already fearful base.Her lack of good judgement and qualifications were glaringly apparent.
On the "terrorist" note, Letterman did ask McCain about G. Gordon Liddy. In a dimissive lower voice, McCain said, "Oh,now, he did his time."
This blog is a review of our history, Mr. Ayers's history, a revisiting of the Vietnam war, meshed with facts and fallacies. Painful as it may be, we remember, so we don't continue the mistakes of the past. Mr. Ayers is correct, our focus has got to be the future-we can't ever stay silent again. Hopefully, politics have changed forever. To that end, I have some letters to send.
