Terrorist TV: ABC's Chris Cuomo Slobbers Over Bill Ayers
JammieWearingFool —
This is just disgusting. The unrepentant terrorist says he and his terror gang didn't do enough . Ayers remained militant in his defense of his bomb-throwing past and repeated a statement that has infuriated his critics: "I don't think we did enough." The college professor also argued to "Good Morning America's" Chis Cuomo today that the bombing campaign by the group he helped found, the Weather Underground, was not terrorism. ... But he was unapologetic about his militant actions during the Vietnam War. "What you call the violent past, that was a time when thousands of ...
"Good Morning America" pals around with Bill Ayers.

I'm "live-blogging" my view of the video. -6:19: ABC has glossy graphics swirling Ayers's book "Fugitive Days" at us. The book is being "re-released." Oh! So this is a book tour. -5:58: The interviewer, Chris Cuomo, insists "you did have a meaningful relationship with Barack Obama, didn't you?" Ayers does nothing but evade. He knew him like thousands of others, and "like millions of others worldwide, I wish I knew him better." That answer is pure bullshit. -5:16: Cuomo attempts to follow up: "You used the term 'family friend'..." Cuomo is obviously working from notes, trying to act the part of a ...
Ayers On GMA - Still Lying
JustOneMinute —
Chris Cuomo of Good Morning America delivers a faux-tough interview of Bill Ayers but hadn't done enough homework to know when Ayers was lying to him. I lack a transcript but early in the interview Ayers avers that he first met Obama at a campaign kick-off which occurred in the second half of 1995 . That bit of posturing had briefly been the official Team Obama position as well but was abandoned when it became clear that Obama and Ayers had worked together on the Chicago Annenberg Challenge in the first half of 1995 . A bit later in the interview Ayers backpedals and volunteers that he had served on a board to ...

“Obama Win Triggers Run on Guns” — now that’s a dog-bites-man story if there ever was one. Gun owners know darned well that the new administration will disarm them if it possibly can. Expect a massive resistance by gun owners and dealers. In some of the reddest states — Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas come to mind — the resistance may become openly organized as things deteriorate. ...
