It's because in the notes in the re-release of his book he says Barack is a "family friend".
But now he keeps saying he was just a "guy in the neighborhood" and he knows him about as well as thousands and thousands of other people do.
Well which is it? The former denotes a closesness and the later doesn't.
I'm glad he kept his silence during the polictical campaign. Yet again, he bugs me with his disingenous comments.
He says he actually wasn't silent, he continued to lecture. But when Mr. Shapiro follows up about his refusal to respond to an email he sent, Ayers says, he didn't want to comment about the election. Well duh! Sorry but who cares if you kept lecturing, so clearly you were keeping quiet about your relationship (or lack thereof) with Mr. Obama.
I just think he is trying to sell his book.
