Well... when I brought this up a wee time ago... I was treated as a pariah with derision.
Well... I told ya so... unless this is totally fabricated.
William Ayers comes clean; I held Fundraiser for Obama; Wife and Michelle were at law firm together
William Ayers, the radical Leftist who was part of the domestic terrorist group The Weather Underground in the 1970′s, has given an in-depth interview to The Daily Beast and confirmed the fact that Barack Obama’s political career began in his living room with a 1995 fundraiser:
THE DAILY BEAST: There was a big hullabaloo during the 2008 presidential election over your relationship to Obama. What is or was your relationship to him?
AYERS: “I brief him every Monday in the White House, and he never listens! No. The truth is exactly what he said and what the campaign said in 2008. David Axelrod said we were friendly, that was true; we served on a couple of boards together, that was true; he held a fundraiser in our living room, that was true; Michelle [Obama] and Bernardine were at the law firm together, that was true. Hyde Park in Chicago is a tiny neighborhood, so when he said I was “a guy around the neighborhood,” that was true. Today, I wish I knew him better and he was listening to me. Obama’s not a radical. I wish he were, but he’s not.”
Actually, that is NOT what Barack Obama’s campaign said in 2008, as World Net Daily points out with this video of Robert Gibbs telling MSNBC’s Chris Matthews there was no fundraiser in Bill Ayers’ living room...
http://www.wnd.com/2013/04/bill-ayers-confirms-what-obama-has-denied/#ooid=JubWhzYTqmlpVWhlJNIysyZQd7uDYdvR
But it was not a “myth.” It was the truth, and Barack Obama has never told the truth about his many radical associations.
I think it's despicable that Robert Redford is doing a movie about that whole Weather Underground ordeal...

I wasn't sure so I thought I'd ask, I vaguely remember this back when Obama was running in '07-'08 and I hadn't met my wife. Odd that its coming out after he can't run again for President though

The way student loans are structured in this country is problematic in a lot of ways, and I think there is a really big need for reform. I'm not sure what shape that should take, but I think action needs to be taken.

Well if we are going to nitpick I'd say a wanted terrorist is worse than a drug dealer, assuming the drug dealer isn't a cartel member.

Honestly I think people give presidents too much credit, I mean pretty much every president in the US is only known for a few things anyways like Kennedy got shot, Bush is known for the War on Terror and 911, Nixon's political scandal, etc. Barack Obama is the first black president,
supports same-sex marriage and tighter gun regulation, death of Osama, charismatic, good oratory skills, recession president, ended US involvement in the Iraq War, trying to improve healthcare for America, etc I think most of those qualities are positive but then again I don't expect
everyone to with my political beliefs.

Ahhh, so we can measure this on some form of 'scales of evil'?
What about Maggie Thatcher hanging out with Jimmy Saville then, is pedo worse than domestic terrorist or drug dealer? What about George Bush Senior attending the same fundraiser as known felon Winona 'lightfingers' Ryder?
Won't someone think of the children!!!

I recall a documentary/TV show that had a quantifiable scale of EEE-vil.
As to the topic of the thread, I'm not sure that Ayers holding a fundraiser or whatever exactly happened for Obama is that big a deal. I mean, I have questions as to why he's out and about when it's pretty clear he shouldn't be, but I don't think that this news is a smoking gun that proves the sitting President approves of leftist terrorism.
I've resolved not to care too much, though.

Dude, from this guy's own lips:
AYERS: “I brief him every Monday in the White House, and he never listens! No. The truth is exactly what he said and what the campaign said in 2008. David Axelrod said we were friendly, that was true; we served on a couple of boards together, that was true; he held a fundraiser in our living room, that was true; Michelle [Obama] and Bernardine were at the law firm together, that was true. Hyde Park in Chicago is a tiny neighborhood, so when he said I was “a guy around the neighborhood,” that was true. Today, I wish I knew him better and he was listening to me. Obama’s not a radical. I wish he were, but he’s not.”
This is the quote that you want me to balk at? The guy saying 'we had knowledge of each other' and 'he's not one of mine'.
Can't say that knowing this causes me even a slow in my step. Why does any of this alarm you? Your own previous emphasis in the quote seems like grasping at straws, there's absolutely feth all here.

Wow... okay. Guess it's okay then.
The point really was that ALL OF THIS WAS DENIED by the supporters.
And Mr. Ayers saying "he's not a radical" doesn't hold any waters when that dude is so far left, he's off the political spectrum.
