University of Illinois to Release Obama Records (Bill Ayers, Annenberg Challenge)
AP via Google News ^ | Friday, August 22, 2008 | Pete Yost

The University of Illinois said Friday it is releasing records of Barack Obama's service to a nonprofit organization linked to former 1960s radical William Ayers.

Supporters of John McCain have been trying to exploit the tie between Obama and Ayers, with a conservative group spending $2.8 million on an ad focusing on Ayers. Ayers' Weatherman group took credit for bombings that included nonfatal blasts at the Pentagon and U.S. Capitol four decades ago.

The records of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, an organization that Obama chaired and that Ayers co-founded, will be made available to the public Tuesday, the University of Illinois at Chicago said in a statement.

I’m very glad they decided to allow access to these papers.

Some of the most rabid liberals believe that the US perpetrated the attacks on 9/11 from “on the inside”. Here comes their presumptive Presidential nominee, a man whose campaign organization includes a person who REALLY HAS perpetrated a terrorist attack on the United States previously, and they could care less??? What’s up with that - seems awfully contradictory.

They claim to not want to destroy the US and then they support putting a Communist Radical like Ayers in an “inner circle” of Washington Power - the Executive Branch no less. That Ayers being a part of Obama’s campaign doesn’t bother the liberals and the Democrats is rather telling, frankly. They can’t really deny that they are at their core a communist “infiltrated”, if not run, party.

They claim to want to “change” America, but indeed they are showing that they are the ones who are stuck in the past - idolizing their icons Mao, Che, and others - and they want to drag the rest of us back there with them...

Just like the Neo-Soviet Union and Putin, which Obama is supporting now... I’ll bet Putin is really hoping for Obama!

I really wish at least the people who seem to be cluelessly following Obama via his “hopenosis” would wake up and realize what Obama really stands for...

Re #10. If Ayers gets his hands on these records, the operative word will be “missing” as in doing a Sandy Burglar on them.

And Ayers’ wife Bernadine Dohrn is just as hardcored a red as he still is. You should see her writings and quotes from the 60’s thru 80’s. She would have made a great Nazi like Ilsa Koch, the Bitch of Buchenwald.

A nonfatal bombing by Obama buddies.

There was at least one fatal bombing but the victims were not the ones the Weathermen terrorists intended .

The damned idiots wound up blowing up themselves, their safe-house and all credibility as a serious threat to "The Man"

Say what ever you wish about the racist rednecks that turned "Birmingham" into "Bombingham", you can't say they were stupid enough to blow themselves up.

Says alot about the quality of Ivy League college education. Whadda bunch of morons.

Maybe I’m naive, but what do they expect to find? Doesn’t concern some lefty educational initiative?

The fitting end for Ayers and Dorne would be......

- For those liberal pansy judges who let Weatherman out on bond to bomb and kill again - what should be their reward?

I heard them both speak in person. She was the more frightening.

Yost is actually fairly reasonable at times for AP....I’m surprised at him on this “non fatal stuff”

I think I still have a few Prairie Fire copies from the early 70s around somewhere....hidden away thankfully.

I agree. All they will find is that Ayers and Obama worked together. Frankly, it will be spun as two people who want change working together for change.

This is a red herring and we need to focus on other Obama filth.

Ok, maybe I'm just out there but look at the saucy, “get f**k’d” tilt of Ayers head in the mug shot and compare it to the way Obama was tilting his head as he gave his nuanced (gibberish) answers at the Saddleback Forum.

For any of you who are interested, I just scanned and posted the only document thus far available written by Bambi while at Harvard Law Review at (in support of abortion):
Barack Obama's Sole Article in Harvard Law Review Promotes Abortion

Here are the scans of Harvard Law Review pgs 823-828, printed from microfilm (as images):

Harvard Law Review pg. 823
Harvard Law Review pg. 824
Harvard Law Review pg. 825
Harvard Law Review pg. 826
Harvard Law Review pg. 827
Harvard Law Review pg. 828
Make of it what you will. Legal minds - your input would be appreciated.

It's sad that this is the only document available to us that Bambi has written.

It's a shame that a man who wants to be the president of this great nations feels he must hide his own words from those who would be his people. But there it is.
