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.

    "When there is a ‘convenient’ moment to say an alleged ‘truth’ then the alleged truth is just a lie." -- Juan Enrique

    Sounds very much like the summer of 2002 when there was a ‘convenient’ moment (post 9.11) to say an alleged ‘truth’ (Saddam Hussein has WMD's, ties to Al Qeada, plans to nuke America under mushroom clouds, etc., etc.) and the alleged truth turned out to be a 100% Bush administration manufactured lie.

    Willam Ayers never killed anyone. I wish I could say the same for the morally bankrupt, born-again christian (sic), George W Bush and the ethically devoid Republican Party. Their murder spree is currently at over one million innocent people and counting.

    Who's the terrorist again?????
