The McCain campaign has released a web ad looking closely at the ties of Barack Obama to Weather Underground founder and domestic terrorist William Ayers. It shows how dishonest that Obama has been over his relationship with the terrorist. The ad is introduced with the following:
Today, McCain-Palin 2008 released its latest web ad, entitled “Ayers.” The ad highlights Barack Obama’s long-standing relationship with unrepentant domestic terrorist Bill Ayers. From his political introduction at Bill Ayers’ house in 1995 to their service together on two boards, Barack Obama has long known Bill Ayers but has not been straightforward with the American people. This is an issue of judgment and candor and Barack Obama has not told the American people the truth.
Watch the ad below:
Here is the full release from the McCain campaign.
I’m incredibly grateful that CNN has finally issued an honest look at Obama’s ties with unrepentant American terrorist, Bill Ayers, a member of the radical terrorist group The Weather Underground. While it’s been obvious to many that Obama has been less than honest about his relationship with Ayers and his wife Bernadine Dohrn. The CNN piece looks closely at Senator Obama’s and Ayers dealings on the board of the Annenberg Challenge Project and a how Obama was aided by Ayers in his rise within Chicago politics as an outsider:
For Obama, the chairmanship of the $100 million Annenberg board helped vault him from a South Side lawyer to political player. And there, too, is an Ayers connection.
In 1995, months after the little-known Obama became Annenberg chairman, state Sen. Alice Palmer introduced the young lawyer as her political heir apparent. The introduction was made over coffee at the home of Ayers and Dohrn. Two people who attended the event told CNN the introduction of Obama included a solicitation for campaign funds.
TigerHawk has written about a video created by Paul Budline looking at the relationship between Barack Obama and self-proclaimed terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn. Highly recommended. As TigerHawk requests, please pass it on to your friends and associates:
