Bill AYERS on In Depth (CSPAN) for 3 hrs. This is just info.
Edited on Sun Jun-07-09 11:50 AM by UTUSN
I never heard of him before the campaign. I was not fear-mongered by the wingnuts over him. I do not champion him. I -------AM-----curious about what he will answer to the predictable questions.

He said a minute ago, "I admired OBAMA for talking to STRANGERS, anybody and go ahead and make up his own mind."

A self-described "idealist from the '60s" said she was appalled by his alleged lack of remorse for the "killing of innocents." He said he never killed anybody.

2 e-mails: Why no regret over bombings. He said he was arrested for opposing the war. "The Black Freedom movement... MLK called the U.S. ...risking his stature. Muhammed Ali...Freedom Riders. Vets came home and told the truth. I had a brother in the service, cousins, classmates, in the service, who became anti-war. KERRY. ...."


I've heard him more briefly on this before. Doesn't exactly answer. "What do you DO? There is a RANGE of responses. I did what I did. Not brilliant, right, perfect. All I know is people who did NOTHING were wrong."


On Edit: Bernadette DORN is appearing in the last hour. NEXT edit: It's BernadINE DOHRN.
