Will points out something that really ought to matter, but in the end probably won’t:

Why would anybody care whether Obama was friends with some ex-hippie who protested the Vietnam War, way back when Obama was just a kid?

The answers is: Bill Ayers was more than a ‘war protester,’ and more than simply a ’60’s radical (let’s face it, Obama couldn’t set foot in a college faculty lounge without running into plenty of those). He was much, much worse than any of that.

During the late 60’s and early 70’s, Ayers and his wife Bernadine Dohrn–who herself gets way too little notice in any current reporting–were far worse than simple anti-war protestors. They were very much on the other side, actively working for the defeat of America abroad in war and the murders of Americans at home. Among many other crimes, Dohrn traveled to Cuba in 1969, where she met with Huyhn Va Ba of the Vietnamese Provisional Revolutionary Government. In that meeting, Dohrn and other Weathermen agreed to “wage armed struggle” within the United States. In appreciation for their efforts, Huyhn gave Dorhn, and later Ayers, rings forged from the metal of downed American fighter planes.

One wonders whether John McCain’s A-4, downed in Hanoi in 1967, was the source of either ring. One also wonders whether Ayers and Dohrn were wearing those tokens of fraternal solidarity when they introduced Barack Obama to the political world from their home some 13 years ago.

There really are two Americas after all, it seems: one in which McCain, disagree with him though we may on some things, will always be honored for his valor in service to his country — and one in which Obama’s scummy traitor pals are undeservedly regarded in that same light, as “courageous” “heroes” in the Leftist cause of subverting everything this nation is supposed to stand for. The best anyone in Obamedia has been able to do so far in rationalization of this ugly alliance — having blithely shouldered the task of defending the indefensible, which is hardly anything new for them — is that “everybody does it, it’s just the Chicago Way.” But all that really reveals is the sordid truth that something is very, very wrong with Chicago politics. It damned sure doesn’t absolve The Lord God of anything, much as Obomadrone fanatics would like to dismiss it as “irrelevant” or a “distraction from the issues.”

Wonder how bothered liberals would be if it were to be revealed that McCain launched his political career at Eric Rudolph’s house, or worked closely on some CAC-like project with Tim McVeigh? The very idea is grotesquely ludicrous, of course, which tells you all you need to know about the character of one candidate and the abject lack of it in his opponent.

It’s appalling to think of this miserable worm being President of the US, and I would imagine even more so for the men and women in our military, who realize what a resounding slap in the face it will be to see such an execrable cur elected. But even though I’m not entirely comfortable saying it, he’ll never be my President in any but the titular sense. Nobody who could align himself with degenerate filth like Ayers and Dohrn for political gain, no matter how long ago or how opportunistically — and lie about it to cover his power-grubbing ass and advance his overweening ambition — ever could be. I know we’re not supposed to think that way as Americans, but dammit, you gotta draw the line somewhere. And mine runs right directly between the Messiah and the White House.

Update! Jesus, but these cockbites think they can just tell any lie at all, no matter how outlandishly laughable, and get away with it.

Sad thing is, so far they ain’t exactly been proved wrong on that.
