McCain is just trying to put as much bull out there as possible, especially after that beating Obama gave him at the debate.

Let me be honest, I KNOW Bill Ayers. Heck, I knew Bill Ayers when before he was part of the Weather Underground. I also know his brother and his father. His dad and I shared a podium jointly speaking in favor of amnesty for those who opposed the war in Viet Nam and were now forced to live either in exile or underground. And then I knew Bill Ayers when he re-established himself as a professor of education at the University of Illinois - Circle.

As even Mayor Daley has noted - most of Chicago's leading activists working in reforming the Chicago Public Schools know Bill Ayers. So I guess you might say that we all "pal around" with domestic terrorists and Chicago is a hotbed of domestic terrorism.

What we would all love to say - those of us who opposed the war, risked jail, got beaten by the police in Chicago in 68 is that the only real terrorist in this election is John McCain. True. John McCain butchered and burned innocent people - men, women and children. He had no remorse and was never prosecuted. John flew Navy bombers and dropped napalm on innocents all across North Vietnam in our undeclared and illegal war of aggression. He was most fortunate that his captors decided to save his sorry life and not shoot him in the rice paddy that he landed in.

Because of the peculiar lens through which we view the acts of our government, even to suggest this to be the case would cost Barack Obama the election. American "exceptionalism" is what we call it. By that we mean that Americans, because of our moral superiority to the rest of the world, are free to butcher, maim burn and destroy any part of the world we choose. Our purpose in the world is pure and our motives above question.

So instead, the folks who tried to stop the butchering of innocents in Vietnam - first through protest and sacrifice and eventually through acts of terror are the ones we fear. They are the dangerous ones. The men who blindly follow orders and carry out these mass executions from 30,000 feet up are, as we know, blameless and lack any accountability for their crimes - just like the men who send them.

It all makes perfect sense to me.

...of gen-u-wine illiteracy and rabid foaminess we are likely to see here in Possum Gulch.

I am sure that each of us has gnashed his or her respective tooth as we face the terrifying onslaught of facts that EEEElites like this Olberman have used to attack our proud buh-liefs.

We should forgive brother "niliadis" for those occasional spelling and grammar lapses (OK, frequent lapses) (OK, OK: constant lapses), and recognize how tired his lips must have gotten as he proofread his heartfelt post.
