How many people actually know Bill Ayers is WHITE??

[Thrill]

I heard someone claiming he was a Black Panther that bombed the Pentagon. LOL.

1. Yeah, I know he is a white guy....

....has always been white from what I know! :sarcasm:

2. I didn't realize until I saw the footage yesterday.

Just shows how you can be caught out by your own assumptions.

3. *shrug* I do. I'm surprised Mooselini rehashed this shit because

it was in the news ad nauseum during the primaries. It's about as "breaking news" as McCain being a POW. (POW! POW! POW!)

I guess the Repugs are counting on influencing those voters who don't start paying attention until a couple of weeks before the GE.

4. I knew.

5. Holy cow - you heard it too!! Thank-you!! Now just need a video of her w/ this crap. nt

6. One of the advantages of being old...

...is that you remember things--like that the Weather Underground was something like 99% white. It never occurred to me that anyone would think Ayers was black. But black, white--it doesn't really matter. This Ayers shit is specious, and will be more than outbalanced by the Keating shitstorm McCaint is loosing against himself. Remember, the Keating scandal is financial!! Does anyone want an old guy with bad judgment about money in the White House?

7. Well, I do, but I will "betcha" that most of the dumb ass repubs that Sarah is trying to whip up

into a frenzy are absolutely assuming he is a black guy. Betcha, betcha, betcha.

And those closet (or not so closet) bigots won't feel the same about the "Ayers" charge once they see he is a white guy like them. Suddenly, the fact that there is no close connection between Obama and Ayers, and the fact that this weatherman stuff happened when Obama was, like, 8 years old will be heard like it was new news.

And off to the next baiting by Sarah!

8. raising hand. i had to research him yesterday and find out what this shit was about. n/t

[BlooInBloo]

9. BWAHAHAHA!!!

[yardwork]

10. Ayers had nothing to do with the Black Panthers. Weathermen were rich white kids.

Sheesh. Can't people keep their 60s radicals straight?

/sarcasm

[vaberella]

11. I knew he was and I saw the way they were "painting". n/t

[Solomon]

12. Actually the fact that he is white is the reason that this particular

slur never got any traction. Knew that from the beginnning as soon as Hannity started pimping it. I thought to myself, this will never get anywhere because Ayers is a white guy. LOL
