Is Obama the only one with a Weather Underground Connection?
By Albert N. Milliron, Politisite.com
Over the last few weeks, if you watch Fox News, Hannity and Colmes, You will hear a constant rant from Sean Hannity about Senator Barrack Obama's connection with a former leader of a terrorist group called the Weather Underground. William Ayers. A one time FBIs Mosted wanted, founding member of the Weathermen, gave Obama a $200 in campaign contribution and sat on a Board togther until 2002. Ayers is accused of bombing the Pentagon and U.S. Capitol buildings in the 1970's.
Ayers is now a professor of Education at the University of Illinois, Chicago was interviewed by the New York Times, an article that Ironically appeared on September 11, 2001, No Regrets for a Love Of Explosives; a Memoir of Sorts, a War Protester Talks of Life With the Weathermen
Has Sean Hannity and other missed something? Why hasn't Hillary Clinton brought up the Bill Ayers issue? What about the Weather Underground in general? If Hillary Clinton wins the nomination you will be sure to find out why she has been silent.
In January 2001 just prior to leaving office President Bill Clinton Pardoned Susan Rosenburg and Linda Evans of the Weather Underground who In 1985 were arrested following being caught with nearly 740 pounds of explosives that they intended to use in more bombings. Rosenberg was sentenced to 58 years in prison, Evans was sentenced to 40 years.
Many folks might say, well this was Hillary's husband, she couldn't be held accountable for the pardons of her Husband. How about Hillary was the catalyst behind getting these woman pardoned. In addition, if Hillary says that Obama should have close contact with his Paster. What about close contact with a husband who condones the use of force to bomb Federal buildings due to an un-popular war. One should review closely the Clinton Pardons, especially the ones on his last few days of office.
To be Fair, it appears that the once radical Ayers has changed some of his ways. He explains that what he meant in the 2001 article was that he didn't regret his anti-war posture not that he didn't regret his bombings. He also appears to be very active in social issues that don't involve explosives.
Why isn't Ayers in Jail? The Bottom line here is that the Federal Bureau of Investigation had over stepped its bounds with illegal wire-tapping and infiltration tactics that made it nearly impossible to convict the once top 10 most wanted. |
