    Yeah, you know that this stikes a chord when there are so many comments coming in about how "irrelevant" this is to the election.

    The reason the Ayers / Obama / terrorism issue will not die out despite massive efforts to just make it go away, is the very fact that Obama has failed really come clean on the issue.

    To most Americans this all smells very very very bad, and the fact Obama cannot come clean on it says a lot more than the huge effort to suppress it.

      Come on Karly. Bush was elected twice and he was raised alongside the man who killed 3,000 Americans on 9/11. If you didn't have a problem with it when you "luv"ed him, why do you suddenly have a problem with it now?

        Because it's a DEMOCRAT, maybe? It's the same as ridiculing a decorated Viet Nam vet because he wasn't "injured enough" while fanatically endorsing a Viet Nam-era AWOL pilot who basically should've flunked out of flight school.

        Is this relevant too, then?

        McCain's "own Bill Ayers":

        http://www.propeller.com/story/2008/10/06/mccains-...

        Why is this association never brought up? Do we want a man who was convicted of felony and conspiracy in relation to an act that was the most damaging to Presidential trust in this country's history to once again have access to the White House? Why has Sen. McCain never disavowed him? Isn't he ashamed of what this man did to our country?

              I think you guys need to be doing more to smear Obama, you are falling behind still in the polls. I think if you were to lie twice as much and smear say...three times as much that you could recover the lead, lmao.

              C'mon, where is Luvmyprez, alphagnosis, you are letting your team down, you need to bring the smears, take off the gloves and sing the praises of that twit vp you picked....you can do it!!!

              So true,nobody seesms to mind who Obama associates with,walks like a duck, talks like a duck-you pick terrorist,socialist,white hater or everything wrapped into being an American hater. Next thing you know our Presidents will only step down when they're dead.

              Karly he has come clean, and major news sources have debunked this. The reason it wont die out is because people like you continue to want to make a big deal of it. Tell us all exactly what does Ayers stepping on the American flag have to do with he and Obama sitting on a board together. Can someone who uses half-truths and outright lies to smear the competition be considered "respectful?" That is what Senator McCain and his running mate Sarah Palin have done - and continue to do with their characterization of Senator Obama as "paling around with terrorists." This is not my opinion, this is what several reputable news organizations have concluded:
              CNN calls these allegations "False." The New York Times says, " the two men do not appear to have been close. Nor has Mr. Obama ever expressed sympathy for the radical views and actions of Mr. Ayers." The Washington post, ""This whole connection is a stretch," The Chicago Sun Times, " Obama's Connection To Ayers Is A "Phony Flap".
              If your claim that his minimal association with Ayers is a big deal, then tell us all how you feel about McCain voting with Bush more than 90% of the time. Ayers never killed anybody when he bombed buildings. Bush, McCain and Palin because they are associates of the same party have killed more than 38,000 people in Iraq and Afghanistan including over 4,000 precious American men and women.

                  You may be correct, but only because FOX is a propaganda outlet not a news channel.

                Karlyc
                McCain was in the Navy when Johnson bombed our ship in the Gulf of Tonkin so I guess that would put him in cohorts with Johnson.

                "The reason the Ayers / Obama / terrorism issue will not die out despite massive efforts to just make it go away, is the very fact that Obama has failed really come clean on the issue."
                Obama has denounced Ayers' radical views and activities but the reason it will die out is the drop in the polls for McCain because of these tactics. The American people are tired of this kind of election tactics and only the Republican supporters want to hear this kind of negative campaign because they're desperate. Obama has a large lead in Florida, Ohio, and Virginia now. What does that tell you?

                      Palin husband belonged to a separatist party for nearly seven years. Does that make her a true American? McCain picked her as a running mate.

                        WHOA! WHOA! WHOA! ok so Obama has turned his back on one belief in his life, he does not appreciate the smallest fragment of American heritage and is happy to let us know about. But hey, what the heck he comes with "CHANGE"... Give me a break people. Is all of America the biggest group of fair weather friends that has been recorded to date? I pray not...

                        No, this issue won't die because people like you keep pushing it. Obama won't come clean about it, you say? Clean about what? He had nothing to do with it. Have you ever served on any board? If yes, do you know what other board members did when you weren't with them? I've served on a board as a director, and I don't have the foggiest idea about what the other directors did outside the board meetings. Moreover, my concern was with the organization and making sure that everything worked well there, and I didn't even care what the others did in their own time.

                        You say that all this smells very bad. You know what smells bad? This smear campaign smells bad; it smells to high heaven. I just hope that Americans can smell it too and all this will backfire on the McCain campaign. In all my life, I've never seen as much filth in a campaign as I'm seeing now.

                        I'm not a Democrat, and I have no vested interest in this election, but I find it really disgusting.

                          So let me get this straight, Candida....

                          If I go to KKK meetings, never burn a cross or anything, but just attend the meetings on occasion and hang out with fellow KKK clansmen, then I can run for president and not be scrutinized for my associations?

                          I just want to make sure I am clear,here.....

                            I seriously doubt you have the intellectual ability to get any fact straight FSU. I will not even bother to debate you since you long ago proved to most here what kind of a simpleton you are.

                            Repeat after me friend...President Obama, and thankyou for your contributions to helping an intellectual get elected.

                                First, David Duke, grand pupah of the KKK, got elected to Congress from Louisiana (IIRC)

                                Second, Obama did NOT attend any "meetings". AAMOF, when Ayers was doing his anti-Viet Nam protest, Obama was 8 - yes, that's EIGHT YEARS OLD!!!!

                                Give it up. You're all reaching, & it makes you look more stupid than Palin looked in the debate - no facts, just "Maverick" lies & winks.

                              You want to talk about the associations of the candidates? How about taking a look at McCain's associations? These are not casual contacts on the board of an organization; these are his own actions with those associates:

                                This Obama, Ayers talk is just an act of desporation by the Mccain Palin campagn.
                                this country is going down financialy and you republicans don't have nothing to talk about but send your attact dog Sarah Palin to talk about Bill Ayers.
                                That's Shameful.
