Obama's New Ayers Strategy: Mention Ronald Reagan and Hope This Goes Away

Really lame. I heard this one floating around yesterday, that since Walter Annenberg was a friend of both Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan, that somehow makes it OK that a scumbag like William Ayers used his philanthropy money in concert with Barack Obama to indoctrinate Chicago schoolchildren.

Well, here we go, with Obama invoking Reagan's name in the discussion. This guy has no shame.
"The gentleman in question, Bill Ayers, is a college professor, teaches education at the University of Illinois," he said. "That's how i met him -- working on a school reform project that was funded by an ambassador and very close friend of Ronald Reagan's" along with "a bunch of conservative businessmen and civic leaders."

"Ultimately, I ended up learning about the fact that he had engaged in this reprehensible act 40 years ago, but I was eight years old at the time and I assumed that he had been rehabilitated," Obama said.
Ooo-fa, that bullshit about being eight years old again, like that makes it alright. Yeah, well Nixon was president while William Ayers was committing terrorists acts and Ronald Reagan was president when Ayers' friends murdered two police officers back in 1981. Somehow I doubt either of them approved of Ayers.

But really, Barack, was that when you first met him? I'm beginning the believe it was well before then.
