A new low for Salon and Shapiro if they think that we have forgotten all the other things that Ayers has said or done.
Let us go back to Ayers' book Prairie Fire. That book is hard to obtain but it is dedicated to none other than Sirhan Sirhan. I am sure that the readers of Salon know that Sirhan Sirhan killed Senator Robert F. Kennedy. So, it is quite surprising that we have a guy who has not repented openly for writing that. I think that Secret Service should ensure that this 'neighbor' does not get anywhere near the president elect Obama. As for Shapiro being chummy with his old buddy Shapiro, what can one say. It is heart warming to see, but it would have been better if the interview were conducted behind bars. That is where Ayers belongs.
Is it not strange how Ayers to this day denounces the American ways and the American injustice? Is it not injustice that someone should have gotten away with murder like Ayers and his wife did? I guess that Ayers and his wife want it both ways. Why hypocrisy is this and why did Shapiro not ask him about this? We know. Because the real reason is that it is all about rehabilitating a terrorist.
