Ayers used to be a terrorist, when Obama was eight years old. He's moved on - why can't you?

"Others have raised the comparison numerous times, and I think it is a good one, so I'll re-used it:"

It isn't a good comparison. Ayers father was very influential in Chicago. He was CEO of Commonwealth Edison and a well-known philanthropist. When Bill had the charges dropped, he pulled his son into the center of politics and influence in Chicago.
