Bill Ayers

As I said before, I am attempting to lay down facts and let you conclude what you will about Barrack Obama. If you've already made up your mind that's great but do you really have all the information? Read and find out. I've done my best to be as accurate as possible and unbiased. Last week I laid out some facts regarding Obama's relationship with Odinga. Today I'd like to explore Obama's relationship with Bill Ayres. So here are some facts about Mr. Ayres, organizations Bill belonged to, his relationship with Obama:

FACTS:

Bill Ayres:

• Born to an affluent family on December 26, 1944.
• Bill grew up in the affluent Glen Ellyn community of Illinois.
• Bill's father was the Chairman and CEO of Commonwealth Edison. Commonwealth Edison is the largest electric utility in Illinois.
• Bill attended the private prep school Lake Forest Academy.
• Bill received a B.A. from the University of Michigan in American Studies in 1968.
• Currently he is a tenured professor at the University of Illinois-Chicago.
• He was a member of many radical Marxist groups and co-founded the radical left organization the Weather Underground in 1969.

Weather Underground:

• The Weather Underground was a radical left organization during the 1960's and 1970's.
• The Weather Underground conducted a bombing campaign of public buildings during the 1970's.
• In 1970 Weather Underground issued a Declaration of a State of War against the US government.
• Their founding document called for the formation of a “white fighting force” to ally with the “Black Liberation Movement”.
• They sought to achieve “the destruction of US imperialism and achieve a classless world: world communism.”
• They attempted to bomb a US military non-commissioned officers' dance at Fort Dix, New Jersey. Brian Flanagan, one of the leaders, said it was intended to be “the most horrific hit the United States government had ever suffered on its territory”.
• However, during preparations of these bombs they prematurely detonated. The three of the five bomb makers were killed. They had also intended to bomb the Butler Library at Columbia University. The bomb prematurely detonated in the well to do upper middle class neighborhood of Manhattan know as Greenwich Village. The FBI report stated, that there were enough explosives in the apartment to level buildings on both sides of the street.
• On February 16, 1970 a pipe bomb on the ledge of a window of the San Francisco Police Department detonated killing Brian V. McDonnel a police sergeant and severely wounding and partially blinding Robert Fogarty another police officer. It was never proven to be the work of the Weather Underground but strong evidence points to them being responsible.
• On February 21, 1970 several Molotov cocktails were thrown at the New York State Supreme Court Justice Murtagh's home, a police car in Manhattan, and two military recruiting stations in Brooklyn. Here as before no direction connection could be made to the Weather Underground. Though most historians state that the arson was carried out by Weather Underground and considered to be a failure. It is also important to note the Bernadine Dohrn, a leader of the group, wrote to the Associated Press in late November 1970 to expect more bombs.
• On March1, 1971 they bombed the United States Capitol stating it was in protest for the US invasion of Laos.
• On May 19, 1972 they bombed the Pentagon “in retaliation for the bombing raid in Hanoi”.
• On January 29, 1975 they bombed the Harry S Truman Building housing the US Dept. of State “in response to escalation in Vietnam”.
• Weather Underground claims responsibility for 25 bombings.
• No direct link was ever made to any bombing perpetrated by the Weather Underground injuring or killing anyone.
• After the breakup of the Weather Underground several members, not including Bill Ayres, formed a new group called the May 19 Communist Organization. They along with the Black Liberation Army were responsible for the Brinks Robbery in 1981. They killed one of the armored car guards and severely wounded the other. Later when trapped by a police road block a gun fight ensued killing two police officers and wounding two others.
• Apart from those that took part in the Brink Robbery none of the people responsible for the bombings were ever prosecuted. Primarily this was due to the COINTELPRO misconduct of the FBI and Justice Department and President Carter's pardoning of many radicals of the Vietnam ear.
• In 1985 Susan Rosenberg and Linda Evans, both members of the former Weather Underground, were apprehended while transporting 740 pounds of explosives which they both acknowledge were slated for use in additional bombings. Rosenberg was sentenced to 58 years in prison and Evans got 40 years. President Bill Clinton pardoned both women in January 2001 as he left office.
• Recently release FBI files under the Freedom of Information act detail a direct link between Weather Underground, Cuba, and the USSR. Mark Rudd, currently a professor of mathematics at a New Mexico community college, traveled illegally to Havana in 1968 and received terrorist training at camps set up by Soviet KGB Colonel Vadim Kotchergine. These camps were educating Westerners both in Marxist philosophy and urban warfare.
• The Weathermen as the members of the Weather Underground were called spelled America with 'kkk' instead of a 'c'. So it would be spelled Amerikkka. As a side note, Reverend Wright has also used similar language to describe the USA as the “US of KKK”.
• Bernardine Dohrn, Ayres wife and currently a law professor at Northwestern University and a Board member of the ACLU, once praised serial killer Manson. “Dig it.” she said “First they killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them. They even shoved a fork into the victim's stomach. Wild.”
• Weather Underground also helped psychedelic drug guru Timothy Leary break out of California prison and arranged for his transport to Algiers.

Obama's relationship with Ayres:

• The two of them met “at a luncheon meeting about school reform”.
• Bill Ayres with others formed a work group. Their goal was to win a grant from the Annenberg Challenge for Chicago. They won a $42.5 million grant over 5 years from the Annenberg Challenge on January 23, 1995.
• On June 22, 1995 the Board of Directors of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge were announced. Their job was to approve how the grant was to be spent. Barrack Obama was the chairman of the board.
• Barrack Obama resigned his chairmanship in September 1999 to run in the Democratic primary for the 1st Congressional District of Illinois.
• Bill Ayres hosted “a coffee” at his house for “Mr. Obama's first run for office” in 1995.
• December 21, 1997 Barrack Obama wrote a short review of a book written by Bill Ayers. The book titled “A Kind and Just Parent: The Children of Juvenile Court” was reviewed by Obama as “A searing and timely account of the juvenile courts system, and the courageous individuals who rescue hope from despair.”
• Obama and Ayres both servered on the board of the anti-poverty group Wood's Fund of Chicago. Between 2000 and 2002 the board met 12 times.
• In April 2001 Bill Ayres donated $200.00 to Obama's re-election to the Illinois State Senate campaign.

ANALYSIS:

Bill Ayres is directly linked to some deplorable acts of violence. Although he claims he never intended to hurt anyone this only changed after the bombs detonated taking the life of his girlfriend and two other friends in the Greenwich Village apartment. Let's not forget that they intended to bomb a dance filled with NCO's and other innocent people. They intended to bomb a library full of students at Columbia University prior to the Greenwich Village accident. Many historians and critics state that the only reason the members of the Weather Underground weren't mass murders was because their incompetence. The bomb that detonated in the Pentagon was underneath the womans bathroom. The bomb burst water lines and destroyed sensitive information. How many soldiers lives were lost as a result of that information loss? Several of the Weather Underground members have regrets for their actions. Mark Rudd said:

“These are things I am not proud of, and I find it hard to speak publicly about them and to tease out what was right from what was wrong. I think that part of the Weatherman phenomenon that was right was our understanding of what the position of the United States is in the world. It was this knowledge that we just couldn't handle; it was too big. We didn't know what to do. In a way I still don't know what to do with this knowledge. I don't know what needs to be done now, and it's still eating away at me just as it did 30 years ago.”

Brian Flanagan compares his actions while in the Weather Underground and the groups actions as being terrorism. “When you feel that you have right on your side, you can do some pretty horrific things.” Flanagan states. Bill Ayres on the other hand is quoted as saying “I don't regret setting bombs” and “I feel we didn't do enough”. When he was asked if he would do it all again he said “I don't want to discount the possibility.” These comments were published in the “Chicago Magazine” on September 11, 2001. The same day other terrorists were attacking the US. In fairness Ayres claims that those comments have been deliberately distorted. However, consider his comments during a recent interview taken in January 2004. The interviewer asks “How do you fell about what you did? Would you do it again under similar circumstances?”. Bill Ayres replies “I've thought about this a lot. Being almost 60, it's impossible to not have lots and lots of regrets about lots and lots of things but the question of did we do something that was horrendous, awful?...I don't think so. I think what we did was to respond to a situation that was unconscionable.”. This is not the comment of a man with any regrets or remorse. In a 1995 interview he said, “I am a radical, Leftist, small 'c' communist....Maybe I'm the last communist who is willing to admit it. We have always been small 'c' communists in the sense that we were never in the Communist party and never Stalinists. The ethics of Communism still appeal to me. I don't like Lenin as much as the early Marx. I also like Henry David Thoreau, Mother Jones, and Jane Addams...”. Bill Ayres has been on the covers of magazines proudly, defiantly stepping on the American flag.

CONCLUSION:

There is no clear, concise evidence that shows Obama and Ayres as being well known with one another but it's also clear they knew each other. They had worked together. Obama reviewed his book. There are some items that suggest that they were well acquainted after all it's not like you just invite complete strangers over to your house for coffee. Then considering that the “coffee” wasn't something casual but an event to launch Barrack Obama's run for the Illinois Senate to help him gather support. Considering that Ayres labels himself as a communist,that he helped launch Obama's political career from his living room, and supported him with a $200 donation, what does that say about Obama's true politics? Do you support and vote for some that is like minded or someone that has contradictory views to yours? I personally support people that I feel have like or at least similar views as me. I don't think it's a stretch to say Ayres feels that Obama has like or similar views to his. At a minimum you must ask yourself why would Obama sit on a board with a terrorist? Why would he give a review of a terrorists book probably boosting sales of that book? A famous quote by Ayres is “Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, kill your parents, that's where it's really at.” Remembering, by any definition of the word, that Ayres grew up rich and is currently rich today. Obama himself would be defined as rich. I wonder what either of them think of such a quote today? I wonder if Obama thinks his children should “kill your parents”? Based on the evidence I think it's a fair to state that as a minimum Obama and Ayres knew each other and likely share similar ideals about what America is and where it should be taken.

Raila Odinga

Who is Raila Odinga? Let's get to know him and his accomplishments.

• Born January 7, 1945 in Maseno, Kisumu District, Nyanza Province, Kenya.
• Raila named his first born son after Fidel Castro.
• Raila, a proud Marxist, was awarded a scholarship in 1965 to the Technical University, Magdeburg in East Germany. East Germany for those who are not aware or to young to remember was ruled by the Soviet Union.
• In 1970 he graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering.
• In 1982 he was a collaborator in a Soviet backed, failed and very bloody coup attempt against President Daniel arap Moi of Kenya an ally of the United States.
• Kenya has been one of the most stable democracy's in Africa since the 1960's.
• For his part in the coup he spent 8 years in prison. He denied his guilt.
• Later in a biography he claimed to be the leader of the coup. However, the statute of limitations was up so he could not be prosecuted for that role.
• He was arrested in 1988 for his participation with the Kenya Revolutionary Movement which was an underground organization pushing for “multi-party democracy” in “a one-party state”.
• Raila was release on June 12, 1989 and then arrested again on July 5, 1990.
• Release again on June 21, 1991 he fled Kenya in October to Norway alleging the government intended to assassinate him.
• In February, 1992 Raila returned to Kenya to join his father, Jaramogi Oginga Odinga, in the Forum for the Restoration of Democracy (FORD). The stated goal of FORD was to return multi-party democracy to Kenya.
• In the 1992 elections Raila won the Langata Constituency parliament seat.
• Jaramogi Oginga Odinga died in January 1994.
• Raila Odinga left FORD in a lost attempt to unseat Michael Wamalwa Kijana from FORD-Kenya chairmanship.
• In the 1997 elections Raila finished third after President Moi and Democratic Party candidate Mwai Kibaki.
• Raila retain his parliamentary seat for the Langata Constituency.
• Raila supporting the Moi government help merge his party with the NDP, KANU.
• Raila served as Energy Minister in Moi's Cabinet from June 2001 to 2002.
• Moi was constitutionally prohibited from serving a fourth term as President and rather than throwing his support behind Raila he asked Raila and the rest of his party members to support Uhuru Kenyatta, the son of Kenya's first president.
• Raila and others refused to support Uhuru. Instead they formed the Rainbow Movement.
• Later the Rainbow Movement joined up with the Liberal Democratic Party(LDP) and still later teamed up with the National Alliance Party of Kenya(NAK). This coalition became known as the National Rainbow Coalition(NARC).
• Raila was apparently betrayed by Kibaki leader of NAK and upon winning the election for President refused to offer Cabinet positions to the LDP, Rail's group or any of the other NARC members. Instead he assigned the positions to the members of KANU and FORD.
• After the collapse of NARC Raila formed the Orange Democratic Movement(ODM).
• Odinga received large support from Kenya's Muslim community.
• Odinga denied any connection between himself and the Muslim leaders.
• Sheik Abdullahi Abdi, chairman of the National Muslim Leaders Forum, presented a Memorandum Of Understanding(MOU) signed on August 29, 2007 by Odinga and Adbi during an appearance on Kenyan television.
• The details of the MOU promised the Muslim communities support for Odinga, in return, if elected President, Odinga would impose measures such as recognizing “Islam as the only true religion”. Other policies promised were to give Muslim leaders “oversight role to monitor activities of ALL other religions”, the install of Shariah courts in every jurisdiction, a ban on Christian preaching, replacement of the police commissioner who “allied himself to be used by heathens and Zionists”, adoption of a women's dress code, and bans on alcohol and pork.
• These Islamic extremists are the same groups that took part in the bombing of the US embassies.
• The 2007 election was reportedly rife with voter fraud and manipulation by both Kibaki and Raila supporters.
• After loosing the 2007 elections Raila claimed it was due to voter fraud.
• Following his loss to Kibaki there were 2 months of extreme violence and genocide.
• On New Years Day 2008, in the village of Eldoret, Kenya a mob of 2,000 Islamic extremists, supporters of Raila Odinga, locked 50 parishioners into the Assemblies of God church and then they set it on fire. Most of the parishioners were women and children. Any that fled the burning building were hacked to death by the machete-wielding Islamic supporters of Raila Odinga.
• President Kibaki requested a meeting of all opposition leaders in early January in the hopes to bring an end to the violence. Everyone attended except Raila Odinga. A month later Odinga was offered the role of Prime Minister in the Kibaki government if he “would end the violence”. The violence ended.
• When the violence ended in mid-February 1,500 Kenyans were killed most were Christians slain by Islamic supporters of Odinga.
• More than half a million people were displaced from their homes.

So now we know who Raila is. How is he connect Barrack Obama? Lets see....

• Kenyan peoples support for Odinga was low initially. This was true right up until his cousin, Barrack Obama came to his aid. According to Odinga, Barrack and Odinga are cousins. Odinga's maternal uncle is Obama's father's brother.  Is this true?  We don't really know.  No evidence has been provided one way or the other but Obama's campaign denied it.
• Obama sent Mark Lippert, his foreign policy adviser, to Kenya in early 2006 to make arrangements for his summer visit.
• Barrack traveled to Kenya in August 2006.
• Barrack and Odinga traveled together throughout Kenya during his trip.
• Shortly after meeting with President Kibaki Obama made the damning statement against Kibaki stating “The Kenyan people have to suffer over corruption perpetrated by government officials.”
• Showing firm support for Raila, his cousin, Obama said “Kenyans are now yearning for change”.
• Oama continues to deny any role in assisting Odinga's campaign. However, there are many video's showing Obama making appearances at campaign rallies for Odinga in Kenya. One such video for example can be seen here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b63bBCC2-yM&feature=related
• Please note, that Barrack Obama used your federal tax dollars to make this trip.  In essence, your tax dollars indirectly went to support Odinga's campaign.
• Also note that Barrack Obama's campaign did not deny any of the meetings that took place with Odinga.  Further, they admit that Barrack Obama has taken/made phone calls to Odinga.

So what can we conclude?  Is Barrack Obama a cousin of Raila Odinga?  Maybe, but does it really matter?  Not so much.  It might be one of the plausible explainations for why he spent so much time with Odinga in Kenya but his campaign has denied that they are cousins.  What we know for certain, based on fact, is that Raila Odinga is a ardent communist.  We know that Raila Odinga made a pact with Islamic extremists.  We know that Raila Odinga is in part responsible for the riots, bloodshed and genocide that occured after the elections.  We know that prior to these elections Barrack Obama gave his support to Raila Odinga with US tax dollars funding it.

Finally, in closing, it is obvious that Barrack Obama has a connection to Raila Odinga.  I would not say that Barrack Obama has ever supported the riots and genocide.  However, by supporting Raila Odinga it shored up his base and gave them confidence.  Would they have rioted if Obama had never shown up?  Maybe.  We'll never know.  We can say at a minimum Barrack Obama is guilty of poor judgment in throwing support behind a man such as Odinga.  I would even say if this were Obama's ONLY connection to a Marxist/Communist/Terrorist/Racist then it would have little or no significance.  This isn't the case however.  Obama has a long history and numerous connections with Marxist/Communist/Terrorist/Racist individuals.
 
I have concluded, that Obama went to Kenya intent on giving his support a to Marxist/Communist canidate.  Odinga has supported a canidate that has reportedly used violence to further his political goals therefore Obama also supported a terrorist canidate.  You might say, well he didn't know about the pact with the Islamic extremists and the genocide ocurred AFTER Obama's visit.  Both of which are true points.  However, all Obama or his campaign staff would've had to do is google Raila Odinga and they would've learned he was a Communist and had supposedly used violence to further his political agenda.  So the question needs to be asked, if Obama knew about this or should've known about this why did he go to Kenya and why did he aid Odinga's campaign if he did not believe in the Communist cause?
 
I believe based on the research I've done that Obama knew EXACTLY who he was supporting.  I believe Obama stood for a Communist because he is one himself.  To further support that point I'll be outlining the other colorful figures in Obama's life in later posts.

I'm at a loss for words.

I just don't know what to say about the latest ACORN scandal that has come out. You can watch the undercover video at the following link:

http://biggovernment.com/page/2/

Watch the ACORN Baltimore Prostitution Investigation video 1 and 2. It's simply unbelievable what these people are assisting. It seems like something out of a bad comedy. When I say that I mean it's sooooo absurd what these ACORN people are plotting that you just can't believe something like this ACTUALLY HAPPENED. I was watching this happen and my mind just couldn't believe it. I was having a VERY difficult time believing this was REAL. OK they were set up but COME ON....how is it possible that these two ACORN people can 1) believe this and 2) partake in something SO IMMORAL and SO ILLEGAL! When you finish watching this you got to ask yourself if something SO IMMORAL and SO ILLEGAL and SO UNBELIEVABLE is conducted WHAT ELSE IS GOING ON AT ACORN!?

Now remember, ACORN is an organization that Obama worked for, that Obama appaulds, is an organization that has taken active roles in shaping government policy and new laws and regulations. They are now in some of the highest echolons of our government and hold such influence over our government that Congress REFUSES to investigate them.

ACORN has recieve $53 MILLION in Federal money. They are about to get BILLIONS more. I have to ask the question....When will you all wake up? When will you stand up and make it known that supporting organizations like ACORN MUST END. How many more truly awful people and organizations to you need to see connected to Obama before you figure out you've been fooled? If this were the ONLY case of illegal activity by ACORN I'd say...OK a rotten apple is to blame....but it's not the ONLY case. If this were the ONLY corrupt organization or individual connected DIRECTLY to Obama I'd say...OK we have all made poor choices in freinds or associates from time to time....but it isn't the ONLY time there has been a DIRECT connection made to Obama and corruption and evil. Last year about this time of year I sent out a lengthy email of DIRECT connection between Obama and corruption, evil, communists, and terrorist. Starting next week I'm going to fill my blog with post after post of true, verifiable Obama ties to individuals and groups that most of you have never known about. I'm sick to death of the stink around this man. I'm sorry if this offends you. I'm sorry if this sounds partisan. It's not. It's fact. This must end before it's too late. Please, come next week and read what I post. You don't need to comment if you don't like. But come and read it. Those of you that know me know I'm not some crackpot that will put up lies, conspiracies or loosely tied tales. Come here and read and then ask.....Why hasn't Obama been asked about these connections and why hasn't he given answers for these connections.
