Steve Diamond describes the renaissance of Bill Ayers and outlines the history of his educational philosophy. When last we checked, Mr. Ayers was chatting with a right wing blogger at Reagan Airport in Washington. And why was he in the area? To appear at The Renaissance Group education conference in Arlington, where he was joined by two other keynote speakers - Dr. Martha Kanter, Under Secretary of Education, and her boss Arne Duncan, the Secretary of Education.
Well - the election is over, so there is no need for Team Obama to keep their distance from Ayers, is there? And it is not as these were White House officials doing something utterly off the wall like proclaiming Mao Tse Tung as one of their favorite philosophers. Oh, wait...
Good stuff, cf. Sniff.

That Bible cover can't be real. It has to be a hoax.
Doesn't it?

By the way, happy Trafalgar Day! Drinking coffee out of my "Success to Nelson" mug from the Royal Maritime Museum, where I visited last Trafalgar Day.

BTW, the brilliance of giving terrorists
'Miranda rights' or freeing them outright, never more clear than today

If Oprah is unable to find anything about Sarah Palin to admire, she is much stupider than I've given her credit for.
How many years did Oprah go to Trinity United?

Matthew had Chris Cilizza on to talk about the 20% Republicans poll.
This is sounds like media cocooning they did Bush/Gore Bush/Kerry, they think it will demoralize. Gore and Kerry, according to the media, were going to trounce Bush.

Levi Johnston will be waiting...for a surprise visit...
...to the hospital, if that happens. The lady can field-dress a moose. A moose she just shot her own self.

I think Palin is being way underestimated. She'll have no trouble with Oprah. If anything, she has learned and will refine her sarcasm so that it is obvious it is sarcasm and not taken the way it was with Gibson and Couric. And she was being sarcastic with both as her subsequent remarks indicated. She was flabbergasted at their stupidity with some of their questions but was restrained due to the campaign. She will feel no restraint now, I'd bet on it. Oprah will end up loving her and so will her audience.

Oprah's high-profile friendship with the Obamas will prevent any contretemps on her part -- it'd backfire. Palin's going to benefit.
Dancing with Ellen wouldn't be wise, though.

We Americans are a remarkable lot. We allow virulent anti-Americans like William Ayers to speak in public venues, even though they proclaim philosophical ideas antithetical to everything that is a free society.
And then, we ridicule them for the hypocritical poseurs they are, benefiting as they do from the very societies they seek to poison. For this, we are often vilified and mocked by those same poseurs, but Americans in general have broad shoulders and a thick skin.
I love America and Americans. You are magnificent bastards.

It's just the college sophmore political club in action. They say this crazy $h!t all the time.

peterhappysabatia: The problem there in that article is that Obama probably does have an inner conviction, which he has hidden as well as any taqiyah master might. I haven't figured out if it is to communism or Islam, or maybe to both.

Oh, glasater, thanks for the link; I'd not seen that one. Watch those shifty eyes. Caught in a lie and absolutely certain of the correctness of his position. There is a true believer, and there is evil.
