No, but one of the guys I work with has a court date tomorrow.

You should make the campaign about the things Obama has done

Like the fund-raising at the Ayers?

Fed Ex?

When you absolutely, positively have to set off a bomb overnight…

Marxist thought by any other name would stink as bad.

Barack is a Bolshevik.

The Bolshevik’s were a murderous band of thugs who rivaled the Nazis in badness. If conservatives call Obama Bolshevik, can liberals call McCain Nazi?

Get real. Advocating government assisted health care insurance (to be purchased from private companies) is not the same as single payer health care like they have in the rest of the developed world.

Advocating single payer health care does not make you a socialist. German Prime Minister Merkel is not a socialist — she’s the conservative who defeated the Social Democrats (still not socialist).

Advocating socialism does not make you a communist, let alone a Communist, let alone a Bolshevik.

Calling everyone you disagree with a Bolshevik or Nazi or whatever makes you a wingnut.

LGM is correct that McCain will win because of “misdirection”. The electorate is getting wise to Hill and Barry’s efforts to misdirect (lie to) the nation.

I don’t know much about Bill Ayers,

Yet another indication of your lack of intelligence.

Bill Ayers is not running for anything and should not be an issue in this campaign. The fact that Obama may have known him when he was a community organizer doesn’t tell us much. Is Obama supposed to do due diligence on everyone he meets as a kid fresh out of college?

You should make the campaign about the things Obama has done and said, not about what people he barely knows did in years past. That’s misdirection.

The only way McCain is going to win is by misdirection. On the issues — Iraq, health care, education, immigration, global warming — the people are (in large majority) with Democrats this year.

We don’t know what happened, so lets replace ignorance with fiction. Let’s get mad just in case someone we don’t like was behind it.

I’d say liking them or not has nothing to do with it, LGM. Again you say that we should wait. For what? The MSM to figure out a way to spin this to help out Obama?

My guesses, in descending order of who-cares-what-you-think probability:

* Militant Immigration/Reconquistadors, sympathizers
* Local anti-US/”corporate globalization”/ BusHitler cuckoos
* Local wingnuts/previously napping Al-Qaeda after having been woken up by the appearance of Rev Wright’s NOI Bodyguards (ok, that last bit is just silly)

I don’t know much about Bill Ayers, but none of the links in the post say he committed terrorist acts or even advocated them. Some of the people he had known earlier became more radical than he and did commit terrorism. It’s as though we call everyone against abortion a terrorist because acts of terror have been committed against abortion clinics.

The FBI thought he was a terrorist, and he claims he was one and advocated terrorism, so what is the mystery?

Given that, are your comments ignorance or fiction?

Actually, I think abortion enthusiasts such as yourself are terrorists of a sort, if the definition includes killing (or being an accomplice by providing tacit support of the killing) innocent babies in the fashion of “the calculated use of violence (or the threat of violence) against civilians in order to attain goals that are political or religious or ideological in nature.”

The definition fits, particularly when innocents are being exterminated for a political purpose (or worse, convenience).

Now I have to scrape the rest of your ignorant (“I don’t know much about Bill Ayers,…etc.”) comments off the sole of my figurative shoe.
