Obama and Bill Ayers

Let’s take a good look at Obama’s associates by starting out with Bill Ayers. He and his wife were radicals in the deepest sense of the word. Their beliefs were such that their group actually declared war on this nation. They went so far as to actually commit acts of war for a number of years. There can be no doubt of their intent of overthrowing this government and installing one in accordance to their beliefs. In essence, they thought they could impose their way of life upon us. I’ll leave it up to you to decide what that government would be if they would have succeeded and if you would willingly submit to its rule.

They did not succeed though and ended up turning themselves in to the authorities. They were charged with crimes against the state but because of improper procedures were freed by a judge. This does not make them any less guilty of the crimes committed and we must remember that when we think of this man and his wife.

Some have claimed that Bill Ayers is a reformed man and they point to his behavior since then as proof of this claim. That is not good enough for me and I hope that it is not good enough for you also. I say this because how we interpret what a man does is not necessarily a reflection of his philosophy. It is a reflection upon our judgement though. If we accept the possibility that his philosophy has not changed then his changed behavior is nothing but a change of tactics. His goal remains the same. We must never forget what his goal was or still is. It is his goals for this nation and state that defines him as he is. I have not seen or read anything that would convince me that his goals for you and me have changed.

We must also remember that one belief of radicalism is that the end justifies the means. It is from this belief that to achieve one’s goals justifies any means used, even terrorism if it calls for that. If that doesn’t force people to submit then it calls for a different tactic. So, before I’ll call someone reformed I first need to ascertain whether or not what a person does is really reformation or just a change of tactics.

What leads me to believe that Bill Ayers has not reformed? It is Barack Obama himself. If you look and study his associations, you will find they all have a commonality, radicalism. Moreover, these associations did not begin as an adult but as a child in his most formative years. There seems to be nobody in his life that can be declared as an influence in any other direction.

Birds of a feather flock together is an old saying and reflects upon the idea that men do exactly that. They associate with those they have a commonality with. Barack Obama has had too many associations throughout his life for me to accept that he does not share the same goals in spite of what he says and wants us to believe. His own words about Bill Ayers belie him.

He called Bill Ayers as being someone who lives a few blocks away and that they never exchanged ideas. Are you going to try to convince me of that when they have had a very close working relationship for all those years? A relationship, I might add, that required trust of each other. And given the nature of that relation there is no doubt that there had to be a political trust in each other that can only come from a common political belief. The very programs that they worked together on would indicate a commonality of political belief.

He has disassociated himself from the criminal actions of Bill Ayers by declaring that he was 8 years old when it happened. This is a misleading statement. What he actually is saying is that he was 8 years old when the criminal acts began. What he fails to reveal is his age when the last criminal act of the Weathermen was committed and where he was when it was committed. He’d also have you believe by that statement, through implication, that he never found out of the Weathermen activities all of these years of association with him. If he did know then that implies that Obama did not think it was relevant anymore. That, you’ll have to convince me of and I’m afraid that is going to be very hard to do.

Is this enough to convince you or me of the radical nature of Obama’s beliefs? Maybe yes, maybe not but it should be enough to make us think twice before seeking to elect the man as the President of the United States. It should be enough for us to more closely examine the man before making up our minds in regards to this election. He himself gave us the reason and that reason is the changes he says he wants to make. To what extent, politically speaking, does he want to change this nation and state? More important is how far will he go to implement these changes.

I only know one thing. Just the suggestiveness of the possibility of change leads me to want to know more about him and his associations. Is that enough for you to join me in that search? There seems to be many in this nation that look at Obama and see nothing but good in him. There is no man that is as good as his followers have portrayed Obama and that in itself scares me enough to need to learn more about him. I would hate to think that this is one of those times in history, as Lincoln said, when all the people were fooled part of the time.

We will be electing a man to an office of government that gives him the highest of security clearance. Can we, the people, afford not to scrutinize the man we elect to that office?
