In the previous blog I talked about the phony, invidious attack on Sarah Palin that was made because she agrees with some of what Pat Buchana says.   While reading it, I thought about what would happen if media went after Democrats the same way.

Well, here's a pretty good answer, courtesy of Jim Kouri, writing for www.canadafreepress.com:

Resume of a Terrorist: Obama’s Buddy Ayers

 By Jim Kouri  Sunday, August 31, 2008

While the likes of the New York Times, Washington Post, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and other news organizations have their reporters digging for dirt on Alaskan Gov. Sarah Palin, John McCain’s choice for vice president, their savior-in-waiting Barack Obama is getting a free ride at the expense of truth.

It’s no secret that the denizens of America’s newsrooms want Obama sitting in the Oval Office, but Americans are being purposely duped by the Democrat National Committee’s volunteer publicists, formerly known as the mainstream news media.

If it weren’t for talk radio and the blogosphere, even what is known about Obama and his friend, former Weather Underground domestic terrorist and leader William Ayers, would only be a paragraph or two in the backpages of most newspapers, or a sentence or two on most TV and radio news programs.

On Friday night, one of America’s top talk show hosts—who happens to be an attorney and worked in the Reagan Justice Department as chief of staff—recited a list of terrorist acts that would elicit envy from Osama bin Laden.  Mark Levin had his listeners glued to their radios or PCs as he read the resume of a man who should be serving life in prison instead of enjoying a tenured professorship at a major university and entertaining a possible US President in his home.

Because of so-called “prosecutorial misconduct” Ayers escaped what could have been a life-sentence.

As I write this “resume of a terrorist,” I find it difficult to understand how a man who is running for president of the United States would even know someone as anti-American and destructive as William Ayers. Plus, Ayers, his wife and their comrades at the Weather Underground are cop-killers.  And Obama doesn’t just know him personally—he’s a close friend with Ayers.

Here is the “resume” of an American terrorist:

7 October 1969 – Bombing of Haymarket Police Statue in Chicago, apparently as a “kickoff” for the “Days of Rage” riots in the city October 8-11, 1969. The Weathermen later claimed credit for the bombing in their book, “Prairie Fire.”

Message to the News Media: Instead of trying to dig up dirt on Sarah Palin, why don’t you cover indepth stories such as the Obama-Ayers relationship just for starters. If you need more leads for stories regarding Senator Obama and other unsavory characters, contact me at this publication.

Months have gone by with Barack Obama's association with william ayers hanging in space.  WHERE are the media on this? WHY are they protecting Barack Obama this way?  WHAT does it say about them that they behave this way?  

You know the answer as well as I do.
