rdorr - thank you for the information. This was not information that I had heard previously.

I would think that anyone trashing someone for this kind of association should re-think it. If Republicans are speaking out against this smear and calling it such, then the RNC and McCain/Palin need to think again. By reasoning Palin is using, then all the people on the board should be called terrorists or terrorist supporters.

I highly doubt a former Reagan ambassador can be considered a terrorist.

Only one lying here is your man Obama.

I think you better go to CNN.com and click on the politics link, view the video report just posted 1 hour ago showing how involved Obama was with Bill Ayers!

CNN is not known to be on the Republican side of anything, but I have to admit this is going to blow Obama out of the water! The report clearly points out just how much Obama and Ayers were involved on these boards, and where they sent the these funds.

Funny how CNN finds that money was given to the Rev. Wright's church! Obama claims not to know this man Ayer's when clearly this report blows his story away!

I am really surprised CNN did this report, I guess they figured that eventually this stuff would come out so they better be ahead of the other liberal media groups!

Enjoy the report Pamela and all you Liberals! It is all downhill from here for Obama and his radical group of friends!

Sarah Palin seems like a real sweetie!
Joe Biden has a death in his family and she keeps her nasty smear campaign going.
John McCain and Sarah Palin, please explain to the American people who are losing their homes, their jobs, their pensions and their health care, along with many elderly people who can no longer stretch their weakened dollars to get enough to eat, exactly how holding your hateful KLAN-like rallies is going to help them

Palin should keep her mouth shut concerning Obama's supposed relationship with Bill Ayers. They were acquaintances on a professional basis, that's it. They didn't "pal around" together. He is much older than Obama. Palin is a pea brain, to say the least. If and When she appears on Meet The Press or Face The Nation and has something intelligent to say when she is questioned, then I might gain a little respect for her. Until then, she should shut her trap cause only garbage is coming out of it.

This is crazy; if all the McCain/Palin fans actually believe Obama is a radical terrorist. They may seriously cry or try to do harm to themselves after he wins...LOL; that's funny to me.

Palin, read this:

DOW CLOSES DOWN 508 POINTS AS MARKETS FAIL TO REGAIN CONFIDENCE

This is really more about mind games than substance. There will be a debate tonight, and their objective is to try and light a fuse by setting Obama up to react with exasperation when the subject "rears its ugly head".

What about McCain's associations with Raffaello Follieri? Follieri pled guilty to multi-million dollars of fraud and money laundering. McCain celebrated his 70th birthday on Follieri's yatch and was seen boarding Follieri's yacht in Montenegro in August, after Follieri pled guilty to the charges.

Maybe McCain's plan to get us out of this economic problem is to get advice from people who know how to swindle people out of money.

Doesn't Palin know that the Annenberg, as in the Annenberg Challenge, was a long-time Nixon/Reagan friend and supporter?

Does anyone think that the conservative Annenberg Foundation would give money to a "terrorist?"

If Obama is being smeared for working with Ayers, who got the Annenberg Challenge money for Chicago schools, wouldn't that make the Annenberg Foundation a "supporter of terrorists?"

Why are Mclame and Palin so scared of Obama? I don't want a bunch of chicken sh**s in the white house!

Who is the true terrorist here???

Sarah I hate to tell you this but several people served on the same board. One was a priest. Our you calling all them terrorist also??? They worked just as close to him as Obama, and what about all the students and professors of the college for years worked side by side this man, are they also terrorist?

And what about McCain?? What about Keating 5, yes he found not guilty but he was still very very good friends with the guy who was found guilty?

What about the US Council For World Freedom. You want some bad crap... this is bad.

Let not forget Sarah Palin association's with the radical Alaska Independence Party that wants to secede from this great country, the United States of America.

And here is a quote from Alaskan Independence Party founder Joe Voegler:
“The fires of Hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government, and I won’t be buried under their damn flag!”

I wonder how Palin explains her husband''s verified membership in the "ALASKIAN INDEPENDENCE PARTY?" Seems she doesn''t believe in the UNITED States of America, does she??

hey Sarah, go ahead and bring up Obama's pastor...
I'll take an angry marine pastor over some witch doctor...

and also don't forget McCain's pastor(s) the one who said New Orleans desrved what it got, it was punishment from God...

STOP THE MADNESS. I JUST LOST MY A** IN MY 401K AT THE AGE OF 50. I WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN FROM THIS MOMENT ON.

I have sat at my work desk all week with nothing to do but blog. I pray I still have a job come Friday. What is wrong with you people. McCain/Palin have nothing to offer anyone. They can't even help themselves. Open your eyes and stop being stupid. Let the facts drain into that brain. Go do fact finds on McCains plans... They will destroy the middle class. You can't have a country without the middle class. Stop just stop.

Obama does "not see America like us."
Obama is "not like us," not "Joe Six pack."
Obama is "not with us "hockey moms."
Obama is "not one of us."

Ah, exactly who is this "us"?
Are all Americans part of this "us," or are the moderate Republicans, Democrats, Independents, "media elite," liberals, and minorities excluded?

Do John McCain and Sarah Palin in fact believe that a divided American electorate, controlled by a McCain-Palin faction called “us,” will be able to repair the damage that has been visited on the United States of America in the last few months, in the last 8 years?

Grasping at straws. Ayers is a non-issue. Palin & co. are getting boring in their desperation. No one's listening. We're too busy worrying about what happens to us when the depression hits.

Re: The INSANE photoshopping claims. Obama has had a US passport since he was a kid. You have to send a copy of your birth certificate (or other citizenship documents) to establish citizenship for a passport. Anyone who has gotten a passport knows this. His passport (and the records establishing his citizenship) would have been reviewed every time he renewed his passport.

Of course, his first application was long before there was anything called "photo-shopping". To assert that Obama photoshopped his passport when he was a boy inicates the ultimate depths of absurd lying that the right wing operatives are willing to sink.

Who cares? This woman is such a hyprocrit. She and her husband are members of a group that wants Alaska to secede from the U.S. She attends a church where her pastor proudly claims he cast a witch out of a community. She allows hecklers to yell racial epithets at African Americans and this same woman encourages hate groups to brand Senator Obama a terrorist. If Palin is not careful, many will soon come to regard her as a terror to the the Republican brand.

Plain is such a disgrace. I can't wait to send her "six-packing" back to Alaska where she belongs, youbetcha.

Dear ABC:

Why doesn't your coverage of these events include the hate-filled reaction of the crowds? "Treason," "Kill him," and "Traitor," as well as racial slurs directed at African-American media covering the events. The Republican campaign is inciting violence - why the news blackout?

Palin and McCain are showing their true colors in their desperate attempt to mislead voters and steal this election.

They've both proven themselves to be confused, uneducated, hateful, uber-ambitious, self-serving, right-wing extremists, eager to play the race/gender/class/character/fear card.

They epitomize everything wrong with Washington politics - they are, by far, the very dirtiest of candidates - moderate "mavericks" they are not.

They are pathetic cartoon characters who attract the scariest backwoods extremists and warmongers to their rallies and use inflammatory remarks to stir emotions, prey on fears, and even encourage bigotry and incite verbal threats against the opposition.

They are dragging this campaign and our country down into gutter. They are an utter disgrace.

my husband joined a political party that wants alaska to leave the united states.

That founder said america was horrible and he had no use for her BS, and he would never die under her flag.

palin gave a speech to these people

isnt that a domestic terrorist?
