Bill Ayers: I was Sarah Palin’s road kill
Salon ^ | October 6, 2013 | Bill Ayers

Posted on 10/06/2013 10:40:43 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Excerpted from "Public Enemy: Confessions of an American Dissident"

“This is not a man who sees America as you see it and how I see America,” vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin cried out to the agitated crowd during a 2008 campaign rally, referring to then-Senator Barack Obama. “We see America as the greatest force for good in this world” and as a “beacon of light and hope for others who seek freedom and democracy.” This was how “real Americans” saw things, according to Palin. As for Obama, he’s “someone who sees America, it seems, as being so imperfect that he’s palling around with terrorists who would target their own country!”

There it was: the punch line that would resonate no matter what else was said or done— palling around. It had a special creepy ring to it, for sure.

When Governor Palin—or, as our late friend Studs Terkel called her, “Joe McCarthy in drag”—uttered it that first time (and ever after) the crowd exploded: “Kill him! Kill him!” I couldn’t tell for sure whether it was me or Senator Obama who was the target of those chants— perhaps both. I’d been designated a public enemy before. I knew the territory pretty well and accepted the consequences with some equanimity, but now poor Barack Obama as well was forced to play Ibsen’s brilliant character, the embattled Dr. Thomas Stockmann, the “enemy of the people.” Stockmann was viciously taunted in the public square by a chorus of townspeople bent on delusion and self-deception: Kill the enemy of the people!

There was no way to prepare for what was about to hit me, of course....

Ayers is pretending to be Jesus to garner sympathy. Not. Going. To. Work.

He's just selling his latest book, which is about his favorite subject: himself. He's just as much the slime-ball that he's always been.

Salon allows a known terrorist to write an article under their name?! Says a lot about them.

I have zero sympathy for Bill Ayers. A group of my friends and I were scheduled to perform at a USO show at Ft Dix in 1970. The show was postponed because of a bomb threat. I later found out Ayers was responsible. He and his wife are a waste of skin.

I feel so bad for this poor Ayers fellow.

He must be in great pain over what Sarah Palin said.

Out of pure compassion, we should euthanize him.

If only the title of this post were true (he was roadkill). What’s the difference between a dead skunk in the road and a dead Bill Ayers in the road? There are skid marks in front of the skunk!!

That the US electorate would not only elect, but also re-elect, the comrade of a Marxist terrorist is indeed beyond belief.

I still have to accept that this is the America that we live in. However, try as I will in our fundamentally transformed America, I still bristle when the media publishes baldfaced lies to advance the socialist narrative.

Ayers writes, “When Governor Palin ... uttered it that first time (and ever after) the crowd exploded: “Kill him! Kill him!” No, they did not.

Here’s the tape: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezkJ3zUJ_RI
The crowd booed; it did not explode with “Kill him!” Nor did it erupt in a chant to this effect as Ayers claims.

Ayers lied. Salon lied.

And, whether one likes it or not, Palin told the truth.

3rd paragraph and they already trot out McCarthy. That’s clue #1 one is dealing with a intellectually bankrupt leftist.

****the crowd exploded: “Kill him!****

The secret service investigated that and they found nothing. Another example that leftist always reserve for themselves the right to lie and smear to advance they propaganda. Evil to the core.

Days before Breitbart's death, Bernadine Dohrn is throwing the masonic-Satanic “peace” hand-sign which really means death i.e. “rest in peace” or “V” for “Van” another name for Satan which means “nail” i.e. “nail in your coffin”.I think her other hand is showing the clenched fist sign.

To tell the truth American businesses need to hire Americans, and bring back businesses to America.

Now.

Hire Americans, and bring back GOP voters.
