Having buried their mutual involvement in the CAC, Ayers, not surprisingly, fails to mention my assertion that in Dreams Obama perfectly mimics Ayers's sentiments on education. In fact, Obama reproduced virtually meme for meme the specific ideas Ayers outlined in a 1994 essay titled "Navigating a restless sea: The continuing struggle to achieve a decent education for African American youngsters in Chicago."
A one-time merchant seaman, Ayers had a penchant for words like "navigating." He ribs me as the "great brain" who discovered "those infamous maritime references" -- an apparent laugh line. As Ayers knows, however, those references are not so easily dismissed.
At the end of the day, I found in both Dreams and in Ayers's books the following shared words: fog, mist, ships, sinking ships, seas, sails, boats, oceans, calms, captains, charts, first mates, floods, shores, storms, streams, wind, waves, waters, anchors, barges, horizons, harbor, bays, ports, panoramas, moorings, tides, currents, voyages, narrower courses, uncertain courses, and things howling, wobbling, fluttering, sinking, leaking, cascading, swimming, knotted, ragged, tangled, boundless, uncharted, turbulent, and murky.
Empirical proof or crackpot confirmation? You decide. If nothing else, I suspect my exposure of this nautical tic made Ayers at least a little self-conscious. Public Enemy is all but devoid of such references.

Love how Mr. Cashill spots the "tell." Great read.
Going out for some dinner. BBL
It is my understanding that Ayers, a Chicago neighbor of Obama, wrote Obama’s Dreams book.
A simple matter for semantic forensics. I’d rather see results at this point.
The author of this piece, Jack Cashill, is responsible for uncovering and establishing that likelihood.
I also read that Ayers, who lived across the street from Obumbo, helped him to finance his home.
As most recall, Ayers was one of the Pentagon bombers.
Ayers/Obama...strange bedfellows? It is not strange at all.
These bomb throwing radicals always have had cute words for bad things. One of the 90s era was a concept and term called “River Keeper” that benevolent soul charged with keeping the river basin free of nasty human influence.
In reality, they were “River Nazis” and their intended realms were not just meant to be the river and basins, but far far up into the feeding watersheds, extending miles in every direction. Had this concept actually gone into execution, virtually all river and stream areas in the whole country would have come under capricious control by zealots. They were even in the process of redefining what the term ‘navigable’ meant. But, this was the Clinton doctrine and it is hidden back in that trunk of dead ideas (for later use).
Today’s, ‘Navigators’ are nothing more than DEATH who pilots the barge across the River Styx to the Gates of Hell.

So what?
Nothing touch’s Mr. Teflon.
Today’s, ‘Navigators’ are nothing more than DEATH who pilots the barge across the River Styx to the Gates of Hell.
These are words that equal a thousand pictures! Well spun!
I would react with consideral joy if someone were to actually ‘Deconstruct’ Scumbag Ayres.
It amazes me that he, and people of his ilk, are still walking around.
Until the one day something (or several somethings) touch him, oh-so personally and undeniably. On that day, the tapestry of lies will unravel, and violently so.
And so I watch, and wait for such a day, and tell others what I've learned about this fraud in the meantime.
I just don't understand why these scumbags were allowed to skate. Even during the Reagan era, as evinced by the above quote? We could've all been spared a whole lotta grief if Ayers and all of his fellow bomber travelers had been sent away for very lengthy prison sentences (or more), and Billy never met Barky.
Unavailable for comment:
This is probably a very accurate outing of Obama’s ghostwriter. When Joe Klein’s anonymous novel about the Clintons was published, the entire book was analyzed against the works of many Washington journalists. Sure enough, Klein was identified as the author because of his own journalistic “tells.” Klein was outed and he admitted to being the author.
Glad you got by the recent earthquake in the PI.
You are almost certainly right about authorship of the book.
. . . Check out article, and see list at # 8.

He'll also never write a good book until he gives up the phony balony victim crap... Outside Hyde Park that kind of wallowing in self pity - even with all it's left wing extremist grandiosity - looks silly on a man over the age of 15...
