Yikes! Obama-Ayers Ad Released
Gateway Pundit — American Issues Project released the first Obama-Ayers ad of the season today. This ad is devastating: It's too bad they couldn't find proof about the babysitting. The American Issues Project was founded to champion the conservative values that have made the United States of America a blessed nation: smaller government, a strong and ready national defense, lower taxes, and a government that encourages entrepreneurship and new job creation in America. We also know how critical it is for America to win the ...

Bill & Barack's Excellent Adventure
American Thinker — William Ayers, unrepentant terrorist and education professor, is once again being tied to Barack Obama in the public mind. Controversy builds over the withholding of the archives of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, an expensive failed school reform effort headed by Obama and effectively run by Ayers, held by the library of the University of Illinois Chicago. Researchers who have gained access to a few documents recording the history of the project have found strong evidence of a very important working relationship between the two men on the project, Obama's sole claim to executive experience.

"Daisy" schmazy: THIS is the best. ad. ever.
All — Even FOX is balking at airing this, so please send it around to your pals. Every word in this ad is true; if all Obama can complain about is "tone" (yawn), he's toast:

Fox Refuses To Air Anti-Obama/Ayers Ad
Nice Deb — What the heck? What the point of having good, hard hitting ads if stations aren’t going to air them? In case you haven’t already seen it, the ad is awesome: Sure, Obama spokesmen are calling the ad despicable, as expected…but why would a news agency ...

Bill Ayers latest bomb
Pundit Review — Bill Ayers latest bomb This is not the way the Obama campaign wanted to spend day one of the convention, responding to negative ads. We will be hearing a lot about “dirty politics” in the coming days. I asked Jeff Jacoby last night if raising the Obama- Ayers connection was fair game or dirty politics, here’s that cut, Strangely Timed Obama Response Ad on William Ayers ABC News’ Tahman Bradley Reports: As Michelle Obama prepares for a primetime speech that will talk about her and Barack Obama’s American values, the Obama campaign is using a new television ad to take on the issue of Obama’s association ...

The Worst Political Ad Ever?
The Corner on National Review Online — Monday, August 25, 2008 [image] The Worst Political Ad Ever? [ Shannen Coffin ] I don't have an encyclopedic recall of every Presidential ad ever run, but I would have to think that Obama's new Bill Ayers ad (hat tip to Politico via our own Jim Geraghty, who provides us just about every useful insight possible on the race) would have to rank up there (or down there) as one of the worst Presidential political ad ever made. It apparently is a response to a harsh and quite effective ad by a 529 group that highlighted the Obama-Bill Ayers connection. Obama's response ad only reinforces the connection. It ...

Obama Camp Threatens TV Stations For Showing Obama-Ayers Ad
Gateway Pundit — More Hope & Change... The Obama Camp is threatening television stations for airing an anti-Obama ad that links the Chicago politician to his associate and friend of 20 years, terrorist Bill Ayers. Here's the ad: It's been viewed over 70,000 times on YouTube so far. Breitbart and Michlle Malkin reported: Barack Obama is striking back fiercely and swiftly to stamp out an ad that links him to a 1960s radical, eager to demonstrate a far more aggressive ...

Fighting back against Obama’s thugs
Michelle Malkin — Here is the ad Barack Obama doesn’t want you to see. Pass it on. I cannot stress how outrageous the Obama campaign’s attempt to silence the creators of the Ayers ad is. Mr. Hope and Change is applying Chicago-style mafia tactics to intimidate those who want to alert the nation to Obama’s troubling ties to, and longtime relationship with, the unrepentant Weather Underground terrorist. Obama’s lawyers and minions are playing hardball with TV stations that have dared to air the ad. They have the gall to champion campaign finance integrity — even as Obama has just admitted hiding payments to his Chicago cronies at ACORN ...

The Ad Obama Doesn’t Want You To See
Stop The ACLU — Despite Obama’s efforts to silece this ad by intimidating TV stations and filing a lawsuit, he can’t refute it because its all true! The American Issues Project respond to his attempt to silence them: AIP is organized as a qualified nonprofit corporation as that term is defined in the regulations of the Federal Election Commission (“FEC”) 11 C.F.R. §114.10. As such, AIP enjoys the protections of the provisions of the Supreme Court’s decision more than twenty years ago in FEC v. Massachusetts Citizens for Life, Inc., 589 F. Supp. 646 (D. Mass. 1984), aff’d, 769 F.2d 13 (1st Cir. 1985), aff’d, 479 U.S. 238 (1986)… AIP ...

Unconvincing
Neptunus Lex — I don’t know anything about the “American Issues Project.” I know nearly nothing about Texas billionaire Harold Simmons. I really don’t know as much as I would like to about Barack Obama, first term senator from Illinois and Democratic Party nominee for president. I do know rather too much about former Weather Underground domestic terrorist Bill Ayers to feel entirely comfortable about the fact that Obama launched his political career at Ayer’s house. Even as I try to remain cautiously agnostic on the issues of the circles they both moved in and the boards they both served on - I’m ...

The Ayers Of Doubt Still Blowing On Hussein - With Videos
Pat Dollard | Young Americans — This ain’t going away, folks. Do you think if John McCain had ties or a friggin’ friendship to Tim McVeigh he’d be let off the hook the way Obama has been? Previous here and here. Obama seeks to silence ad tying him to 60s radical DENVER - Barack Obama is striking back fiercely and swiftly to stamp out an ad that links him to a 1960s radical, eager to demonstrate a far more aggressive response to attacks than John Kerry did when faced with the 2004 “Swift Boat” campaign. Obama not only aired a ...

"Why would Barack Obama be friends with someone who bombed the Capitol and is proud of it?"
Classical Values — "Why would Barack Obama be friends with someone who bombed the Capitol and is proud of it?" Asking such a question can apparently lead to legal trouble. Amazingly (and stupidly, IMO), Barack Obama's campaign is taking legal action against ...

Obama Threatening TV Stations For Airing Ayers Ad
Nice Deb — With some success - both CNN and Fox News have declined to run this ad: Unable to dispute the basic truth of the ad, the Obama camp has tried another tack. Sic the Department of Justice on the group, the “American Issues Project, who made the ad, and aggressively pressure TV ...

The Ad Barry REALLY Doesn’t Want You To See
Pirate's Cove — This is what’s called bring a Barrett .50 to a pillow fight. Apparently, we aren’t allowed to question Obama’s character, despite that being 80% of his campaign thru the primary, and even in to the general election. I guess discussing a presidential candidate cavorting with unrepentant terrorists is an “effort to distract us from the issues that affect our lives.” Via Michelle and Jay, who say to spread this far and wide. Michelle writes Mr. Hope and Change is applying Chicago-style mafia tactics to intimidate those ...

The Ayers Ad Obama Doesn’t Want You To See
Electric Venom — If Obama’s, and now Biden’s, ties to convicted fraudulent fundraiser Tony Rezko weren’t enough to show that whatever “experience” Obama might have it’s not the kind we need in Washington, the “candidate of change’s” ties to a domestic terrorist should make that point perfectly clear. Only problem is, if you aren’t plugged in to the internet you might never hear about those ties because Obama’s campaign has launched a letter-writing campaign to stop television networks from airing the ad while calling for the DOJ to ...

Document drop: Turning the tables again on Obama’s speech-squelching thugs
Michelle Malkin — Just obtained the latest counterpunch from American Issues Project, the independent group running the ad about Bill Ayers that the Obama campaign doesn’t want you to see. (Embedded again at the end of this post. Keep passing it around.) As I’ve pointed out repeatedly over the past few days, Obama’s attempt to bully TV stations airing the ad and stop scrutiny of his radical ties is part and parcel of a larger campaign to chill the free speech of conservative political activists and donors. AIP sends the same message to the DOJ’s Deputy Assistant Attorney General John Keeney and turns the tables on the Chicago thugs: ...

Obama, Ayers and the Media
QandO — The Barack Obama campaign’s strategy to minimize the damage being caused by the candidate’s association with unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers is truly a study in political floundering. Instead of ignoring the story (no doubt thanks to echo’s of swift boats in their ears), the campaign has tackled it head on with Stalinist zeal. They even have the propaganda down pat, replete with tough talk and a compliant media. And although it it gratifying to see the term "swift-boating" finally being used correctly (i.e. challenging an opponent with verifiable facts and credible assertions), I’m still somewhat amazed at ...

Hussein Continues To Try To Halt Free Speech And Truth Against Him
Pat Dollard | Young Americans — Related Post Obama camp: Prosecute Simmons by Bill Smith - (Politico) Obama general counsel Bob Bauer today sent a second, sharper letter to the Justice Department, directly attacking the Dallas billionaire funding a harsh attack ad, Harold Simmons. “We reiterate our request that the Department of Justice fulfill its commitment to take prompt action to investigate and to prosecute the American issues Project, and we further request that the Department of Justice investigate and prosecute Howard (sic) Simmons for a knowing ...

Please Don’t Watch This
Six Meat Buffet — Or the Obamessiah will be plenty sore at you and will shove his lawyers all up in your grill. On Chi-town’s South Side, they could just send over a hit-man. That would draw too much attention in a national campaign I guess. Hit-man, trial lawyer, what’s the difference, really? I’m thinking about flipping over to see what President Clifford has to say, but I’ll probably watch Roddick v. Santoro instead.

THE RELATIONSHIP OBAMA DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT
Dr. Sanity — First there is the ad (Michelle Malkin has more) his thugs are trying to squelch: Then there is this, from Ben Smith: Barack Obama's campaign hasn't advertised this a great deal this week, but the campaign's "Action Wire" has been waging large-scale campaigns against critics. That includes tens of thousands of e-mails to television stations running Harold Simmons' Bill Ayers ad, and to their advertisers — including a list of major automobile and telecommunications companies. And tonight, the campaign launched a more specific campaign: ...

OBAMA’S FULL COURT PRESS AGAINST FREE SPEECH
Right Wing Nut House — With many liberals cheering them on, the Obama campaign is putting on a full court press on several fronts to silence critics and quash Conservatives attempts to publicize the candidate’s relationship with former Weather Underground terrorist William Ayers. In effect, the Obama camp is putting the entire nation on notice; screw with us and we will make your life so miserable you will wish you had never heard the name “Bill Ayers.” I can sympathize with their frustration. Their attempts to carefully craft an image and narrative of a political moderate who could bring both sides together may ...

Smelling Smoke In The Ayers
Wizbang — I like to consider myself a reasonably good writer, and one of the hallmarks of a good writer is the general avoidance of cliche's. But there's a reason why a phrase degenerates into a cliche': it's because it has more than a grain of truth. And as I consider the story of the relationship between Senator Barack Obama and unrepentant domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, and in particular the actions taken by Senator Obama's presidential campaign, I keep hearing certain tired and trite phrases: "Where there's smoke, there's fire." "When you find yourself taking the heavist flak, you know you're over the target." "Methinks the lady doth ...

Because The MSM Will Not Touch It: The Obama-Ayers Failed Schools Of Chicago
Pat Dollard | Young Americans — One of the ONLY things Hussein can pin his name on as an “accomplishment” … should he dare pin his name beside that of the minor ‘acquaintance’ and unrepentant 1960s domestic terrorist William Ayers … is in quite a cluster-fuck up and over there in Chi-town.Do we really want this man in charge of ANYTHING on a national/federal level? Do we really want this man anywhere near the CiC chair of our military? Healthcare? Social Security? Taxes? And do we really want to take the additional risk of exactly what kind of people he will put in charge of ...

Team Barry Sends Out Action Alert to Shut Up Critics...Again
Weekly Standard Blog — Perhaps Obama could stop the ritual wringing of hands over negative ads long enough to examine the far more pernicious — "vile" and "sleazy," even — tactics of his own campaign in systematically shouting down its critics. For the second time in less than a month, Team Barry has sent out an e-mail action alert to Chicago-area supporters instructing them to clog the call-in lines of a local radio show hosting conservative reporters uncovering, ahem, inconvenient truths about Obama. In late August, Stanley Kurtz of The National Review appeared on the Milt Rosenberg show, a long-form interview show and Chicago ...

Obama and Bill Ayers Worked to Get ACORN Teaching Schoolchildren in Chicago
Weekly Standard Blog — How's that for a red-meat headline? It has the virtue of being true, according to the research of Stanley Kurtz into Ayers' foundation, the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, chaired by Barack Obama: One unsettled question is how Mr. Obama, a former community organizer fresh out of law school, could vault to the top of a new foundation? In response to my questions, the Obama campaign issued a statement saying that Mr. Ayers had nothing to do with Obama's "recruitment" to the board. The statement says Deborah Leff and Patricia Albjerg Graham (presidents of other foundations) recruited him. Yet the archives show that, ...

Obama And Ayers Pushed Radicalism On Schools
Pat Dollard | Young Americans — Previous Post And don’t forget this one. By STANLEY KURTZ - (WSJ) Despite having authored two autobiographies, Barack Obama has never written about his most important executive experience. From 1995 to 1999, he led an education foundation called the Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC), and remained on the board until 2001. The group poured more than $100 million into the hands of community organizers and radical education activists. The CAC was the brainchild of Bill Ayers, a founder of the Weather Underground in the 1960s. Among other feats, ...

The One and Only Billy Ayers...
Hit & Run — I'm not convinced that painting former Weather Underground jefe Bill Ayers and Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama as a post-American Century version of Brian Piccolo and Gale Sayers is a) effective negative politics or b) particularly relevant in the glimmering twilight of late capitalism (by which I mean of course enduring capitalism that will hopefully still be around to help increase my kids' standard of living every bit as much as it has mine). As someone who lives in Ohio half the time, I've seen the McCain "Know Enough?" attack ad about Ayers a ...

Why Ayers Won't Work
The Stump — Andrew also reminds me that I meant to link to this shrewd Ross Douthat post on the problem with highlighting Ayers. In a nutshell, Ross argues that successful culture-war attacks on Dems have traditionally spoken to real social or economic concerns, albeit in ugly or grossly dishonest ways. So Willie Horton played on actual  fears of violent crime, and the Jesse Helms "hands" ad played on anxieties about job loss, etc.. But what underlying concerns does Ayers highlight? As Ross puts it: Ayers isn't tied to any of the issues that are uppermost in voters' minds. He tells ...

Obama in his own words: Bill Ayers
Basil's Blog — Obama defends his relationship with Ayers: Obama and Bill Ayers: Bill Ayers, the terrorist who dedicated a book to political prisoners like Sirhan Sirhan: Obama knew Ayers. Obama worked with Ayers. Obama got money for Ayers. Lots and lots of money. The whole “when I was 8 years old” line doesn’t fly, because he wasn’t 8 when he launched his campaign in Ayers’ home. He wasn’t 8 when he served on several boards and programs with Ayers. He wasn’t 8 years ...
