Bill Ayers: The Left Must Utilize Its ‘Absolute Access’ to America’s Classrooms
The Blaze ^ | December 21, 2012 at 9:50pm | Jason Howerton

Posted on 12/22/2012 9:22:18 AM PST by haffast

Bill Ayers, former domestic terrorist-turned university professor, reemerged earlier this month to explain how the Left’s access to schools and neighborhoods will help them shape the future of America. Speaking at a New York University “Change the Stakes” meeting on Dec. 4, he said the Left must utilize the existing “movements on the ground.”

In the video, obtained by EAGnews.org, Ayers also first blasts conservatives for portraying President Barack Obama as a “secret Muslim” and a “secret sociopath,” running around with “terrorists and Arabs.” He lamented the fact that many liberals felt like Obama was “winking” at them while he portrayed himself as a compromising moderate – but Obama ended up disappointing the far left, according to Ayers.

“The same people, and I’m sure some of us in this room, are saying, ‘But the second term he’ll be free,’” he said. “Forget about it. That’s not where change comes from.”

“If we want change to come, we would do well not to look at the sites of power we have no access to; the White House, the Congress, the Pentagon,” Ayers added. “We have absolute access to the community, the school, the neighborhood, the street, the classroom, the workplace, the shop, the farm.

Before he died Brietbart bought at auction a dinner with Ayers and Dorn, prseumably so they could grill him on being a domestic terrorist

But after arriving he said Ayers was one of the most pleasant and charming individuals he had ever met.

This did NOT extend to the communist useful idiots he had employed as servers for the evening, who could barely disguise their hatred

All of these little hitlers have been like that- that is how they get away with knowing stupidity all their lives and having no concience about killing people

I agree and home schooling is simply not going to be enough. Those who are home schooled today will be little more than minor speedbumps to the vast majority who are being taught marxism for the future.

True critical thinking, not the anti thought that the schools are calling critical thinking.

The example I use is global warming. When I'm told that the earth is hotter than normal I have a whole string of questions they can't answer. What is normal? How was it determined? What was the time scale of the readings? How and where were the readings collected? How many data points were collected?

This is news? The Left has been in charge and using the public school system to spread its propaganda during my entire life — it’s just gotten more noticable as each year passes.

No.

That is your way of saying that you oppose my first amendment rights and are simply terrified of opinions that are contrary to yours.

Personally I don't blame you extremists, it makes you look foolish when you get smacked between the eyes with the truth.

I am sorry to hear that, I hope Steel tries again.

The grassroots levbe3l is what is so important. We often feel that ‘pkay I elected my people now I just want to live my life and raise my kids/enjoy my grandkids’. whioch in a normal world a person should be able to do.

But the Leftists are like termites, they never, never stop, not ever. They keep on and keep on, worming their way onto school boards, city councils, they get into waste removal boards and church committees, they just never cease. It’s kind of awful to think you have to constantly fight them at every level but you do.

The ruling class New Normal want to teach you that: You do not have inalienable rights. You have human rights and they grant them.

The 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, psycho spoiled brats were celebrated in the establishment MSM as the most intelligent generation ever!. They are now arguably that very establishment that praised them and they hold themselves and their ideological issue in even higher regard.

They hijacked the Democratic Party in the 1970s.. their MSM employees are advocating full time now.

. . . some key [events] exacerbated the national debate, fraying trust, and national cohesion just a little more each time . . . The two-party system that had governed America . . . began to fall apart . . . interest in politics took the place of all other forms of news-related entertainment . . . politicians were the celebrities . . . [Politics/ideology] was becoming such a habit, the reactions so automatic, that [journalists] taking sides on every news story became inevitable. .. from for Love & Liberty by Robin Young and it's about 1857 America.

I think we've about reached one of the several crises Lincoln talked about.

The fault is ours. Abe will explain from "the other side."

If you could first know where you are and whither you are tending, you could better judge what to do and how to do it. You initiated a policy to tolerate the Marxist-Alinsky radicals and let them rant; not only has it not ceased but was constantly augmented by decades of infiltration and indoctrination. You now have two Americas. In my opinion, it will not cease until a crisis shall have been reached and passed. A house divided against itself cannot stand. I believe this government cannot endure, permanently, half statist and half free; I do not expect the house to fall; but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing, or all the other.

The question today is either the opponents of statism will arrest the further spread of it and place it on course of ultimate extinction, or its advocates will push it forward till it shall become permanent.

Have you no tendency to the latter condition?

Let anyone who doubts carefully contemplate that now almost complete legal combination — piece of machinery, so to speak — compounded of the Republican Party hands-across-the-aisle doctrine and the dreadful actions among statism's chief architects.

Awful close to the day when the military will have to choose sides. It seems to me.

“If we want change to come, we would do well not to look at the sites of power we have no access to; the White House, the Congress, the Pentagon,” Ayers added.


I could just choke on my lunch!

He is Obama’s disinformation machine!

He got him into the White House through the front door so he could stop bombing his way into these places. And Obama has been quite successful for the red left. It’s just that those old commie ideas don’t work, never have.

I don’t doubt that ayers now thinks the schools are the answer, but don’t kid yourself. He worked the White House angle pretty hard and succeeded in getting his protege in there. And his guy has been sovietizing as fast as he can.

Man, I can’t stop myself from wishing for some happy ending a la saddam in that hidey hole for old bill ayers.

The sad truth for old Bill is that he lies about his age to try and impress the co-eds. He’s about as cool as a Yugo and as scary as Mrs. Butterworth.


While I admit Madame Butterworth is highly caloric, old Bill got a loser commie stooge into the fricken White House. Twice! If that isn’t scary...

Nothing new here. This little creep has been advocating using schools to indoctrinate for years.

Homeschooling is an important Christian Living issue. There will come a day when homeschooling will be treated like owning firearms, that only someone with extreme views could do it and government should take the right away. It is already a crime to homeschool in parts of Europe.

In your dreams. You are simply projecting.

I am not Congress and I am not bound by any law that forces me to have someone on a ping list who is simply using it to further their own agenda of attacking homeschoolers.

I am not JR or a mod who is prohibiting you from posting on any thread you so choose. Nobody is stopping you from posting on these threads so your accusation and attacks against me about opposing your First Amendment rights are horse hockey.

Nor am I afraid of opinions contrary to mine. If that were the case, I never would have homeschooled to begin with. I've dealt with other homeschool hostile teachers before. You are nothing new or special, but rather a product of the public education establishment.

HOWEVER, I will not participate in your attacks on homeschooling by leaving you on a ping list for the very thing you despise.

Not to mention that you do just a fine job of finding these kinds of articles to stalk wintertime over anyway. You don't need my help.

Personally I don't blame you extremists, it makes you look foolish when you get smacked between the eyes with the truth.

Homeschoolers = extremists, eh?

And you really can't figure out what your name is no longer on the ping list?

Here's an idea. Start your own ping list. Call it *Another Reason to Public School* and ping people to all the public school friendly articles or all the homeschool unfriendly articles you can find. Nobody is stopping you.

Surprise surprise once again you have it exactly backwards. I have told you time and time again that I fully support homeschooling. So much so that I have offered a number of you lists of students that you may take under your wing and demonstrate just how great your theories work. Sadly not a single one of you has had the Cajones to rise to the challenge.

What I do is defend. I defend against your attacks. Such as the hay you personally tired to make out of the Newtown shootings. As i told you on a separate thread: If you want to point out issues with public schools great go right ahead. but to take advantage of the death of children to try and make a political point is unconscionable. It is the type of Alynsky attack that the let resorts to.

HOWEVER, I will not participate in your attacks on homeschooling by leaving you on a ping list for the very thing you despise. HOWEVER, I will not participate in your attacks on homeschooling by leaving you on a ping list for the very thing you despise.Please document that I have ever once said that I despise, hate or in any other way have anything against homschooling. Or be pr oven a liar.

Homeschoolers = extremists, eh? Homeschoolers = extremists, eh?

That would be you; metmom, wintertime, and several others, that go out of your way to be unreasonable and extreme in your views.
