Obama tries to distance himself from Ayers

On the campaign trail, the Obamessiah has tried to distance himself from domestic terrorist William Ayers.  He recycles the irrelevant line that Obama was only eight when Ayers was bombing the Capitol, cops, and other targets.  Ayers is unrepentant to this day, yet Obama has deep, personal ties to Ayers that he cannot run from, though he and the MSM will try to do so.

Here’s an oldie-but-goodie from the University of Chicago, November of 1997:

…Ayers, who spent a year observing the Cook County Temporary Juvenile Detention Center in Chicago, is one of four panelists who will speak on juvenile justice at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 20, in the C-Shop. The panel, which marks the 100th anniversary of the juvenile justice system in the United States, is part of the Community Service Center’s monthly discussion series on issues affecting the city of Chicago. The event is free and open to the public.

Ayers will be joined by Sen. Barack Obama, Senior Lecturer in the Law School, who is working to combat legislation that would put more juvenile offenders into the adult system; Randolph Stone, Director of the Mandel Legal Aid Clinic; Alex Correa, a reformed juvenile offender who spent seven years in Cook County Temporary Detention Center; Frank Tobin, a former priest and teacher at the Detention Center who helped Correa; and Willy Baldwin, who grew up in public housing and is currently a teacher at the Detention Center.

It sounds like Obama is, shall we say, “less than honest” about Ayers merely being a dude in his neighborhood.

Of course, the AP is already branding Gov. Palin as a racist for pointing out this connection (which, by logical extension, must make me a racist).  Nope…no liberal media bias!
