1995 - Terrorist Bill Ayers helps launch Barack Obama's political career by hosting a political event on his behalf.

 

1995 - 1999 Ayers, who controlled the Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC), hired Barack Obama as Chairman of the Board of the CAC, even though he had no experience other than as a "community organizer."

 

 

2001 - "I don't regret setting bombs. I feel we didn't do enough." Ayers is quoted in NYT article.

 

 

2008 - Barack Obama admits "Ultimately, I ended up learning about the fact that he had engaged in this reprehensible act 40 years ago, but I was eight years old at the time and I assumed that he had been rehabilitated."

 

 

Senator Obama says that he thought that Ayers, a person who attacked institutions of the United States, had been rehabilitated. Did Senator Obama believe that Timothy McVeigh had been rehabilitated? Does he think that Osama bin Laden has been rehabilitated? How can a person of reasonable intelligence "assume" that a person who bombs anything is rehabilitated? Wouldn't you want some proof or evidence of rehabilitation? How can you work for somebody for several years, working with his associates, and not know that he is an admitted terrorist? The sad truth is that Bill Ayers is completely unrepentant and is a friend of Senator Obama. How can a country elect a President who is cool with people attacking his own constituents?
