Bill Ayers crawls out from under his rock to push his alternate reality…

With getting ready for the LSATs, I haven’t been able to turn out as many posts as I would like. I can’t simply sit down, turn on the television and find some to ignite my “writer’s passion”, but something has focused me for another blog entry…

Following the election, I knew that Barack Obama’s “closet” would open up and the “skeletons” would come marching out. I felt like saying “I told you so” the instant Tom Brokaw and Charlie Rose began talking about how they “don’t know Obama or what he will do”, but I decided to let it go. When Louis Farrakhan and Reverend Michael Pfleger came out of the shadows and began praising Obama’s election, I noted it in a blog post, but I didn’t obsess over it. What I can’t ignore is this obsession with former Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers. While I can understand the media’s morbid fascination with those like Farrakhan and Pfleger, polarizing figures in America’s continuing struggle towards racial equality, why they would bother giving a man out of touch with reality his “15 minutes of fame” is beyond me…

Most of this media attention comes from the fact that Ayers’ publisher is rereleasing his book Fugitive Days. With Barack Obama’s election, Ayers and his publisher are hoping to make a modest profit off the media attention which was stirred up by Fox News, the same media attention he villainized the other day by comparing it to the “Two Minutes of Hate” from George Orwell’s 1984. While “biting the hand that feeds you” is a great way to prove your state of mind, he might as well have come out in front of the cameras with a tin-foil hat screaming about the voices in his head since the Good Morning America interview he gave, as well as his follow-up appearances, showed viewers just how deranged and out of touch with reality he really is…

Finished watching? Talk about a man who needs a lifeline to get back to reality…

The United States terrorists? I guess Ayers should have told that to the North Vietnamese and the Viet Cong that when they tortured and killed nearly 6,000 civilians and prisoners of war in the city of Hue. Let’s not forget the “reeducation” camps, which led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese, as well as the countless other who were executed or simply “went missing” following the Fall of Saigon. It is okay though, this anti-war radical is in good company with other political figures suffering from Vietnam related dementia, like Senator John Kerry. Geez…

What about this claim that he isn’t a “villain” and that the Weather Underground wasn’t a “terrorist group”? Blogger Nancy Goldfarb was commenting about this on two of my posts during the election, discussing how these “freedom fighters” killed more people than the the Ku Klux Klan in the last fifty years. According to Goldfarb, Ayers wanted to become the world’s most notorious mass murderer, ahead of both Hitler and Stalin, something echoed by Larry Grathwohl during his interview for the 1982 documentary, ‘No Place to Hide’…

Clearly Ayers is a “villain”. Wanting to kill millions of Americans does strike me as “villainous”, if not psychotic, but this isn’t surprising coming from a man who said that children should “bring the revolution home, kill your parents, that’s where it’s really at” (at this point, wouldn’t wearing a tin-foil hat help his public image?). Let’s not forget that his group tried to bring about this revolution through a campaign of terror, multiple bombings, including one which killed three Underground members. Yes Bill, by definition (a person who terrorizes or frightens others), your former group was a terrorist organization. Even with this, the MSM was willing to give him a pass on Ayer’s assertion that he and his band of bombers weren’t terrorists, but misunderstood protesters “on the right side” of the Vietnam War issue.

We turn on the television this week and we get the story of the Mumbai attacks. We have people discussing how this is the fault of coalition efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan (keep leaning to the left CNN), forgotting that India has been the target of a variety of terrorist attacks for years. You can’t rationalize these things, there is no simple explanation for these incidents, and that the victims are not the villains in these stories. No matter what these terrorists say, it doesn’t justify their actions. While we haven’t heard from those responsible for these attacks as of yet, it doesn’t matter what their reasons are, nothing can be said that will make right the murder of civilians in an attempt to forward their cause.

Same goes with those trying to sell books. No matter what they look like, they are still monsters, people who are twisted in such a way that they should be removed from society, not celebrated on television. As these attacks in India continue, let’s remember that we still have those in our countries who not only condone terrorist actions, but participate in them as well. Every time you interview one of them, let their bullshit go unquestioned, you give support to those who continue to murder innocents for an unjustifiable cause.

It doesn’t matter when it happen, those like Bill Ayers are still terrorists, and even if they have evaded the law, it doesn’t make it right to allow them to profit from their evil deeds… Disturbing…

UPDATE: Hot Air has the latest on the Mumbai attacks, and the stand-off at Chabad House ended in bloodshed. While people all over the world are mourning, President-Elect Obama is discussing diplomacy. Didn’t I just say giving these people a platform, like diplomatic talks, just emboldens them? Urgh…

UPDATE: Hot Air has a new story about Bill Ayers up. In a recent op-ed article for the New York Times, Ayers tries once again to justify his terrorism by calling it  “extreme vandalism”.  Talk about delusional… What are those voices telling you now Bill? Maybe you should keep your tin-foil hat on and stay under that rock…

I have been busy the few weeks, but I will try to keep this blog updated on everything new and political, even those social and economic events which make headlines…

UPDATE: Now Chris Matthews is defending Ayers’ record as a radical. Forget that this man is responsible for numerous deaths, including members of his own terrorist group, the real villain in Sarah Palin? HUH? How can anyone take Matthews seriously anymore?

UPDATE: I know this is a long time coming, but Michelle Malkin as news on the Bill Ayers situation. It seems that they will be turning memoirs into a graphic novel… Wonder if they will include the fact that he was an eight year old soldier during the Korean War?
