Confederate Yankee Bob Owens is one of my favorite conservative bloggers of this election. He manages to write in a way that’s so chock full of things being said, without actually managing to clue you in on why he’s saying any of the things that he’s writing, like a piece of ready to assemble furniture with fourteen extra bolts and a plank of wood that doesn’t go anywhere.
CYBO takes on the hilariously overwrought Bill Ayers association scandal, and leads me to make an oath: if I read another post, article or column that reveals that Barack Obama had secret terror-sex with Ayers and his wife at a 1995 coffee or that Obama served on a board with Ayers and it was called the Annenberg Project as if it’s either new or damning, I will donate $25 to Barack Obama. My apologies that this isn’t either funnier or more cartoonishly violent, but I want to win and then make outlandish threats against my political enemies. If that’s okay with you.
Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama has consistently tried to discount the depth of his relationship with Bill Ayers, one of the founding members of the Weather Underground, a radical left-wing terrorist-
Blah blah blah, get to the good stuff already.
By 1995, Barack Obama had known Bill Ayers at least eight years since their shared involvement in the Alliance for Better Chicago Schools, if not longer.
Whoa. WHOA. This is huge. Bigger than huge. If we can prove that Barack Obama had a cursory relationship with Bill Ayers eight years earlier than we previously thought, then that puts the complete pointlessness of this in a whole new - yet equally pointless night. Let’s delve in to this new and exciting fact!
Bernardine Dohrn, once labeled “the most dangerous woman in America” by none other than J. Edgar Hoover, was also well known as the inspiration for the 1988 movie Running on Empty. Subtle terrorists they were not.
You see? You see?
No, wait, you don’t see. What? Running on Empty was also released on September 9, 1988, which pretty much, you know. Yeah. Exactly.
Axelrod also tried to excuse the extent of Obama’s involvement with Ayers, stating, “Bill Ayers lives in his neighborhood. Their kids attend the same school. … They’re certainly friendly, they know each other, as anyone whose kids go to school together.”
It’s an obvious fiction pitched by Axelrod, since the Obama children are presently in elementary school, while Ayers’ children are all grown adults, but the Ayers-Obama family connection doesn’t stop at the imaginary connections between the children.
You dare doubt that Bill Ayers and Barack Obama are BFFs? Their kids don’t even go to the same school. If that doesn’t prove my point, then maybe this does: did you know that Bernadette Dohrn was the inspiration for...oh, yes, I went over that. Moving on…
