    i saw Joan Walsh this evening on one of her MsNBC shows

    she said barack will one day (in the fall) have to explain his relationship with Ayers, because he hasn't as yet (this is true, he only said the crime occurred when he was eight). i'm not a fan of Walsh, i am a fan of obama, but in this case she's right. i once saw ayers, on C-SPAN, and he gave me the creeps. he was unctuously good - like he was channeling gandhi. a saintly leftie. but he smelled evil, like a perfumed rat. well later i checked him and his wife out on the net(wonderful thing, wiki) and i found out that my suspicions if not correct at least had a strong basis.
    he has to disavow this dog. i see why he would keep wright, who has a good character, but he owes this Lefty McVeigh nothing.
