We are in an economic free fall. We are experiencing an economic crisis that is of monumental and historic proportions and all McCain and his stooge, Palin can address is the fact that Obama knows a 1960’s radical who belonged to the notorious “Weathermen” group.
This guy named Bill Ayers is a respected professor at the University of Chicago, named citizen of the year by Chicago for his community work and a board member of several Chicago charities was a bit radical in the 1960s. But he is not in jail or sought by the police for criminal prosecution so what the hell is the problem here.
The problem is that McCain is in trouble and he is being told to attack. In the last few days I have heard nothing but this crap about Obama palling around with a terrorist. Using the word “terrorist” implies a connection with “Arab Terrorists” and not “U.S. Radicals” as Ayers, et. al. were called in the 60s, so people with limited intelligence will quickly associate Obama with Arab terrorists and imagine what – that Obama is a Muslim undercover terrorist?
Guilt by association is a slippery slope and McCain better watch out. McCain has a long history in Congress and had time to do a lot of questionable things. One that comes to mind is his association with this guy Charles Keating that was a star in the Savings & Loan scandal of 1990s. McCain supported him to the hilt and then he was convicted and sent to jail for stealing millions from ordinary folk. Why don’t we explore that friendship and believe me there is way more public evidence of misconduct on McCain’s part then the casual association Obama had with Ayers – two can play at this game.
Actually the McCain thing is quite timely since the public is madder than hell about the greedy Wall Street fat cats that are getting away with millions while the country collapses. That is exactly who Keating was and McCain was his boy in Congress helping him steal millions.
On ABC News with Charles Gibson, Obama was asked about his relations with Ayers and he answered them straightforward. McCain was asked why in this economic turmoil is he talking about Obama’s relations with Ayers, he hemmed and hawed and said that Hillary Clinton asked about this relation also BUT what the fuck does it have to do with our crumbling economy – no answer.
This is plain Karl Rove politics that McCain knows very well because he was a victim of Rove when he ran against Bush. He knows how these made-up lies can actually turn the tide in elections because people don’t take the time to think that they are being played; they just react as predicted.
I hope that in these historic days of world turmoil, voters with brains and sound reason prevail. Remember what got the U.S. out of the Great Depression – WWII.
