What is up with all of the vitriol against this man? Whatever acts of terrorism he may have committed (if they can really be called that) pales comparison to that which our military rained down on Vietnam (and from which the Vietnamese continue to suffer from today). Ayers and the others in the WU could have simply been careerists who went for themselves and who could have achieved a greater status in life if they had gone the conventional route (in the manner of Bill and Hillary). Instead they were the true patriots who tried to stop an illegal and immoral war and continue to suffer from those actions even today.

As a former worker at the Progressive magazine, and as I live in the Madison, WI area still, I consider it one of my onerous duties to keep up with its ravings (it has gone WAY down hill since Erwin Knoll’s day.) I suggest readers take a look at its pathetic effort to drum up sympathy for poor Billy Ayers.

I alerted readers there to Ron Radosh’s excellent piece here and Jeffrey Herf’s addendum, two former Madisonians from days when the level of discourse on the left was somewhat more sophisticated, I can assure you.

Dohrn and Ayers were at least on the right side
of democracy while you idiots were for killing a million civilians.

52% of the people ruined it for the rest of us. Brainwashed by Overbite, Madcow, Brokejaw, New York Slimes, etc and don’t have a clue what change these citizens have in mind for us and the world.

As a college professor, the scary part is how many of my colleagues embrace Ayers’ hatred of America. No less vehement.

I wonder if Obama invites Ayers or hie wife to the White house, if the Secret Service would allow him in the same room with the president? Even though BA was never convicted, he has a permanent record as a known terrorist.

Just a thought….

“AYERS HAS TO LIVE WITH HIS OWN CONSCIENCE”. COMMUNISTS DONT HAVE CONSCIENCES. MARX TAUGHT THAT EVERYTHING, EVEN YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY , WAS SUBORDINATE TO THE POWER OF THE STATE. AND ONE THING ID LIKE TO POINT OUT TO RON RADOSH OR ANY OTHER CONSERVATIVE WRITER. START DOING SOME RESEARCH ON AYERS WIFE. BERNADETTE DOHRN WAS INVOLVED IN FAR MORE TERRORIST ACTS AND MURDERS THAN AYERS WAS. DOHRN ALSO SPENT TIME IF IM RIGHT ON THE FBIS 10 MOST WANTED LIST. CONECENTRATE ON AYERS ROLE AS A RADICAL PROFESSOR, HOW HES NOW A BIGWIG IN SETTING UP COLLEGE CURRICULUM TODAY THANKS TO THE IDIOT FORMER PRESIDENT OF INDIANA U, MYLES BRAND( THE SAME GUY WHO FIRED BOBBY KNIGHT AS HEAD BASKETBALL COACH THERE). MAYBE SOMEONE LIKE A DAVID HOROWITZ CAN GO FURTHER IN EXPOSING THIS PIG. IM MORE WORRIED ABOUT WHAT AYERS THE MARXISTCOMMIE EDUCATOR IS DOING THAN AYERS THE TWIT TERRORIST. AND HIS SO CALLED “WIFE” WHO I BELEIVE IS ON THE FACULTY AT NORTHWESTERN U IN EVANSTON,ILL. LETS MAKE THE RIGHT STEPS, APPLY PRESSURE AS NEEDED. THE PAST IS DONE. TIME TO STOP WHAT THE COMMIE NUTJOBS AYERS,DOHRN,OBAMA, AND NASTY PIGLOSI WILL TRY TO INFLICT IN THE NEAR FUTURE.
