However, let's not whitewash the crimes committed by William Ayers. He is a terrorist who would be (and should be) in prison had it not been for prosecutorial misconduct relating in no way to his guilt or innocence.

Here is what, I am not getting, Ayers actions in the past should have been condemned, but to say he should be in jail now, is wrong, this is a person that changed his life, became an asset to society. Do past crimes mean, that a person should never be able to redeem themselves? By all accounts he has turned his life around, contributed to the good of his community and I would guess he has done more good recently, than most citizens. 

 Connecting Obama to the hate filled word of terrorist is dangerous and at such a low, it's scary.  Did no one learn anything from Bush and the swiftboaters, do you want your person to win so bad you are willing to be a part of the lynch mob mentality. Gee you better get your pitch forks and torches ready because that is how McCain supporters are coming off as.

Okay Jodi, let's look at it a different way.  Someone tortures and murders your entire family and is never punished for it.   Years later, it's found they have turned their life around, contributed tot he good of his community and done more good recently than most citizens, you'd be cool with giving him a free pass?

Mike, yes I did.

Abusing power doesn't equate to crazy or bitch.

I missed the Palin quote where she believed in witches.  Where was that reported?  Or, are you attributing things others said or believed to her?  If so that would make all of Wright's beliefs Obama's as well, now wouldn't it?

Scott... Scott, Scott, Scott... what will we do with you?

No, the rest of the post where the post is revealed to be a gag supporting Miller's idea of hypocracy.  Where I quote the Daniel Boone lyrics?

On the last page, Miller noted that people jump on you because you don't like Obama and I corrected him and noted that that wasn't why.  (Side note - you followed this up by comparing me to something that calls something else something.  You don't see the faulty logic in that either, do you?  I corrected a point, I didn't call anyone anything.)  ((Other side note:  Can you even read?  Is someone reading this to you?))

The reason why we jump on you?  Because your logic is SO bad.  We're not "jumping on" (as Miller says) people who don't like Obama - otherwise this thread would be utter chaos.  It's just you.  Because of posts like the one I quote here, and many many others.  Your logic is just bad. 

And that time I am calling you out.

Not being caught and prosecuted for it doesn't make it any less of a crime.

More bad logic - her "crimes" had to do with her role in government.  His was something he did in college.

Scott... seriously. 

Someone tortures and murders your entire family and is never punished for it.  

The hits keep coming - Ayers never tortured nor murdered anyone.   Bad logic.  Bad comparison.

Scott, seriously...

It's not at all surprising that the possibility of a Black president would bring out racist support for McCain. What's surprising is that the non-racist supporters of McCain aren't stomping on that sh*t. 

Or worse, making excuses for it - "Well, it's ok that he did it because someone said something about Palin that I didn't care for".

(Note carefully - my use of that statement does condemn some here for playing misdirection, but it also credits you as "non-racist" as Joe says.  Unless you prove yourself otherwise...)
