Bill Ayers talks back

Sarah Palin called him a terrorist, Barack Obama called him an acquaintance. A Salon editor who knew Ayers back when talks to the ex-Weather Underground member turned Republican talking point.

    I'll be glad when this thread closes

    I mean, Zoltan Newberry and Juan are two of the most ridiculous people I have read in this whole thread. They keep skipping around, blasting their RushO'Reilly propaganda like it is the truth, and calling people names like "turd" and "pervert". If they aren't poster children for what is wrong with the Republican party I don't know what is. Amazing that they don't even realize how stupid and vitriolic they come off.

    The only good thing is that when this thread is closed their comments will be wiped off this, just like mine right now will be.

    Fantastic Article, by the way.
