"On the Record" host Greta Van Susteren hosts "Summer of Evil: The Manson Murders" on FOX News Channel.
Forty years ago, a two-night murder rampage in Los Angeles by the followers of an aspiring rock star and cult leader named Charles Manson terrified the Hollywood community and made headlines across the world. In the last four decades, the savage murders of a beautiful actress named Sharon Tate and six others at the hands of a "family" of hippies have taken on mythical proportions. The story that shocked the world has it all: Sex, drugs, rock 'n' roll, movie stars and murder. It also proved to be the death knell to the hippie movement.
This hour-long exclusive FOX News documentary will take an in-depth look at how Mansons dream of rock stardom evolved into "Helter Skelter" and turned his peaceful young followers into cold-blooded killers. The Manson murders are so seared into the American publics conscience that the book Helter Skelter, which chronicles the case, remains the No. 1 true crime bestseller of all-time.

"Their founding document [the Weather Underground's] called for the establishment of a "white fighting force" to be allied with the "Black Liberation Movement" and other "anti-colonial" movements[1] to achieve "the destruction of US imperialism and the achievement of a classless world: world communism."..."-Berger, Dan (2006).

"they [the Weather Underground] employed revolutionary jargon, advocated armed struggle and black liberation and began bombing buildings, taking responsibility for at least 20 attacks. Estimates of their number ranged at times from several dozen to several hundred."

Charles Manson's Helter Skelter:
"Helter Skelter would begin, according to one of Charlie's devotees, 'with the black man going into white people's homes and ripping off the white people, physically destroying them. A couple of spades from Watts would come up into the Bel Air and Beverly Hills district...and just really wipe some people out, just cutting bodies up and smearing blood and writing things on the wall in blood...all kinds of super-atrocious crimes that would really make the white man mad...until there was open revolution in the streets, until they finally won and took over. Then the black man would assume the white man's karma. He would then be the establishment'..."

Confession (Manson Family)
When they got in the house, Susan [Atkins] said that in the living room there was a man on the couch and a woman on the chair reading. Then some of Susan's group stayed in the living room, while Susan went into the bedroom where Sharon was sitting on the bed talking to Jay Sebring. They quickly put nooses over Sharon and Jay's heads so that if they moved they would choke.
Frykowski ran for the door. "He was full of blood," she said and claimed that she had stabbed him three or four times. "He was bleeding and he ran to the front part, and would you believe that he was there hollering 'Help, help, somebody please help me,' and nobody came? Then we finished him off."
"Sharon was the last to die," Susan said with a laugh as she described how Sharon was begging her, " Please don't kill me. Please don't kill me. I don't want to die. I want to live. I want to have my baby. I want to have my baby."
Susan said she just looked at Sharon straight in the eye and said, "Look, bitch, I don't care about you. I don't care if you're going to have a baby. You had better be ready. You're going to die and I don't feel anything about it...In a few minutes I killed her."
Susan said she saw that there was Sharon's blood on her hand and she tasted it. "Wow, what a trip! To taste death, and yet give life."

"Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community ... Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love." - "Divine Racism: The Unacknowledged Threshold Issue for Black Theology", in African-American Religious Thought: An Anthology, by William R Jones, ed Cornel West and Eddie Glaube (Westminster John Knox Press).

HANNITY: But Reverend Jeremiah Wright is not backing down and has not for years and in his strong stance on the teaching of black liberation theology is nothing new. He had the same things to say last spring when he appeared on "Hannity & Colmes:"
WRIGHT: If you're not going to talk about theology in context, if you're not going to talk about liberation theology that came out of the '60s, systematized black liberation theology that started with Jim Cone in 1968 and the writings of Cone and the writings of Dwight Hopkins and the writings of womynist theologians and Asian theologians and Hispanic theologians, then you can't talk about the black value system.
HANNITY: But I'm a reverend
WRIGHT: Do you know liberation theology, sir?

Manson’s followers only killed seven. I say that 2009 could go down in history as the “Summer of Evil”.
Just.. WOW.. these devils are still in society, yet our gubmint goes after our soldiers for fighting for this scum’s freedom.
-Weather Underground leader and wife of Bill Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn
Great post as usual, ETL
I wached this show last night but Bill Ayers name was conveniently left out...
I tried to watch that last night but they had an annoying scroll at the bottom that talked about how FABULOUS the economy was doing and we’ve hit bottom and blah blah blah.
Not only was it distracting, but the misinformation ticked me off.
Fox sucks.
Fox News leaves a LOT of important info out of their reporting on Bill Ayers, the Weather Underground and Reverend Wright. Still, they’re light-years better than the rest of the head-up-their-butts media.
Re: “Friday, August 7, at 10 p.m. ET/Replay 1 a.m. ET”
SORRY ALL. I SHOULD HAVE CLARIFIED: THE PROGRAM WILL BE ON AGAIN TONIGHT (SATURDAY) AT 10PM ET, AND RE-AIRED AT 2 AM AND 4 AM ET (VERY EARLY SUNDAY MORNING).
We’re going through a SUMMER OF EVIL right now, Greta. And it has nothing to do with Manson...just a thug who happens to be FAR more dangerous than old Charlie ever dreamed of.
Wrong title, should read ‘Summer of Evil: Obama and His Administration’.

excerpt...
In 1969, Ayers and his wife convened a "War Council" in Flint Michigan, whose purpose was to launch a military front inside the United States with the purpose of helping Third World revolutionaries conquer and destroy it.
Taking charge of the podium, dressed in a high-heeled boots and a leather mini-skirt her signature uniform Dorhn incited the assembled radicals to join the war against "Amerikkka" and create chaos and destruction in the "belly of the beast." Her voice rising to a fevered pitch, Dohrn raised three fingers in a "fork salute" to mass murderer Charles Manson whom she proposed as a symbol to her troops. Referring to the helpless victims of the Manson Family as the "Tate Eight" (the most famous was actress Sharon Tate) Dohrn shouted:
Dig It. First they killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them, they even shoved a fork into a victims stomach! Wild!

You can read who was really controlling Charles Manson in this true and scientific online book called, “The devil and Karen Kingston.”

She ought to have a special called “Summer of Evil - Democrat Health Care Reform”.
Regardless of the Pentagon bombing itself, the Weather Underground should’ve been tried and convicted of Treason and punished appropriately by the State. They openly supported the enemy in a time of war and waged a domestic campaign of violence. Their crimes were bigger than any single attack.
