"NO REGRETS"

August 2001, Chicago Magazine, "No Regrets" by
MARCIA FROELKE COBURN: [DOMESTIC TERRORIST BILL AYERS]: "I acted appropriately in the context of those times."
"Guilty as hell, free as a bird—America is a great country."
"I'm not that radical" [Barry: I don't think my church is actually particularly controversial.]
"That's the price I have to pay."
He says about not knowing what happened to his girlfriend who blew herself making a bomb (packed with screws and nails, not unlike what suicide bombers use) that was to be used to bomb an Officer's Dance at Fort Dix - the same place where now soldiers are trained before they ship out to Iraq and Afghanistan. The same place a group of six Muslims living in the area plotted to attack. See here. Quite a parallel between bin laden, al Qaeda and Ayers' band of cowards. He did not pay the price for what he did - his case was mysteriously thrown out because of prosecutorial misconduct associated with illegal wiretaps. Maybe that's why barry changed his mind. His father being a rich and powerful: chairman and chief executive officer of Commonwealth Edison, chairman of Northwestern University [Dohrn teaches at Northwestern Law School] and of the Chicago Symphony.
(6-2-08) According to NEWSWEEK'S
MICHEAL ISIKOFF (emphasis added), David Axelrod, barry's chief strategist was (still is?) Senior Partner at AKS Public Strategies (located in the same office from which he directs barry's campaign), a consulting firm that was basically trying to scam the public into a pay hike for Commonwealth Edison by pretending to be a consumer group warning of an energy crisis, all the while being paid by Commonwealth Edison. He says he's not a lobbyist because he never denied where the money came from and never worked in Washington - he didn't need to register as a lobbyist in Illinois.
Last year, [even as he managed barry's campaign - barry saying he doesn't accept money from Lobbyists] ASK last year proposed a similar "political campaign style approach" to help Illinois hospitals block a state proposal that would have forced them to provide more medical care to the indigent. One part of its plan: create a "grassroots" group of medical experts "capable of contacting policymakers to advocate for our position," according to a copy of the proposal. (ASK didn't get the contract.) Public-interest watchdogs say these grassroots campaigns are state of the art in the lobbying world.
His corporate clients do have business in the capital. One of them, Exelon, lobbied Obama two years ago on a nuclear bill; the firm's executives and employees have also been a top source of cash for Obama's campaign, contributing $236,211. Axelrod says he's never talked to Obama about Exelon matters. "I'm not going to public officials with bundles of money on behalf of a corporate client."
Always a fine line with barry and his operatives. Lie, lie, lie ("refine the truth" - as in what the definition of *is* is) and get away with whatever you can until someone catches you and then: I didn't know. You can see where the "grassroots" came from. Plenty of practice. Recall that Mrs barry worked at University of Chicago Hospital with the main responsibility of finding ways to turn uninsured patients away from the ER to save the hospital money.
There are even more connections through Mayor Daley, Valerie Jarett, Mrs barry, Rezko and Arab businessmen but I'm too tired to dig it up from the other older blogs. And as if it even matters. It never mattered. Ever. barry was going to be president from the moment he spoke at the 2004 convention and it's clear why he got that job.
I wonder how much chris 'barama' matthews knows about any of this? barry stumps on lobbyists and corrupt Washington and how he won't deal with them even as his chief strategy is one - but it's ok because he works outside of Washington. That's why he always talk about corruption "in Washington". He has an out. He wasn't talking about corruption in Illinois. Why hasn't anyone wondered where barry's Gov Rod Blagojevich has been? I mean even the non-followers.
I have no doubt I could take matthews on as far as facts but I wouldn't be able to be near him or recognize him worthy of dialogue. Not that he is ever polite enough to allow it. He is a sexist pig. Period. As unrepentant a misogynist as Ayers is terrorist. But he's quick to attack any and all non barrybots--including a non-suspecting woman, ruining her career over something he has no knowledge of--saying Ayers is all about 40 years ago and they were just on an education board. He doesn't know anything. By choice or by design? That is wrong on many levels.
One thing is for certain: BARRY IS A FRAUD AND HIS CAMPAIGN WILL GO DOWN AS THE MOST VICIOUS AND CORRUPT IN HISTORY - AS WILL THE MSM. And I hope I will live long enough to see it. It will have made these months worth something, especially since it appears I have been abandoned by my fellow citizens. I don't blame them.
September 11, 2001 New York Times article,
DINITIA SMITH: AYERS: ''I don't regret setting bombs. I feel we didn't do enough."
''Kill all the rich people. [He was brought up rich, well-privileged and well-educated in an intact household.] Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, kill your parents, that's where it's really at. It was a joke about the distribution of wealth.''
So, would Mr. Ayers do it all again, he is asked? ''I don't want to discount the possibility."
''I didn't kill innocent people.''
''...a certain eloquence to bombs, a poetry and a pattern from a safe distance.''
Ayers' lovely wife, Bernadette Dohrn, once the Most Wanted Woman in America pled guilty and received three years probation and a $1500 fine. Here's a
list of the acts of terrorism they got away with.
DOHRN: Dig it! Manson killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them, then they shoved a fork into a victim's stomach.
Now they are cowardly sellouts living like any other elite capitalist professors in Hyde Park, three blocks from Mr & Mrs barry. Just a guy in the neighborhood. And Axelrod? Just another corrupt Chicago operator. And Blagojevich? Just another corrupt Illinois governor. And Barry? Just the next POTUS despite a million things that would have long since disqualified him if he were 100% white or a woman of any sort.
The Double Standard.
God Bless the United States of America!
NO NO NO GODDAM AMERICA THE US OF KKK A! says the next POTUS' pastor of 20 years.
