The most politically manipulated term in the English language is used to smear Barack Obama as an associate of "terrorists."
  • How it works

    Dr Bosch spelled it out clearly enough: To graduate from Terrorist to Patriot, you need to claim the right of belligerence. Just like W did.

    Ayers didn't do that. One might wonder why. Was it because he doesn't truly believe in his evil anti-American cause? Was it because he is a madman, who doesn't believe in following the rules, or believe in rules at all?

    Obama may not have a ready explanation, though he has proved himself to be quite facile with words. But it's about time he spoke to the American people and explained why, when Ayers himself doesn't seem to believe his own actions were pure and patriotic, Obama still stands by him.
