CNN (!) Reports on Obama’s Close Ties To Ayers

October 7, 2008 by Laura | Trackback URI

Hillary must have had a word with someone at CNN. This is quite shocking, considering the source. It highlights the dearth of journalism for this entire election season. Had it been McCain with close ties to an abortion bomber, this sort of thing would have been daily fare until he’d been tarred and feathered, to say nothing of Obama’s ties to Rezko and other unsavory characters. Does anybody really believe Obama did not know the facts about Ayers’s history?  Enjoy the video:

Ayers is about to be rehabilitated in a big way.  Every time he bought a box of Girl Scout cookies, helped an old lady across the street, or threw a few bucks in a Salvation Army bucket is about to be recounted by the media in loving detail.  Or will this clip instead go down the memory hole like the SNL skit that told the truth about the mortgage fiasco?  The Anchoress wonders

how Democrats who care about free-speech can consent to and stand for what is becoming Standard Operating Procedures on the left: if it hurts the cause, it never happened. Things get erased and disappeared, pretty regularly, these days. Seems wrong, doesn’t it? Why is no one on the left speaking up? If nothing else, the issue of FREE SPEECH should be one upon which both left and right can agree.

But in the meantime, read Treacher’s account of Bill Ayers explaing why Sarah Palin is mean.  Dana Milbank agrees: Sarah Palin is “angry” and egging her supporters to “turn on reporters.”  (Mom!  She hit me back!)

And, meet the new boss, same as the old boss: Obama funneled taxpayer money to his wife’s cousin.  Gotta love those new politics!  Hope and Change.
