The Truth about Barack Obama and William Ayers

Smear groups and now a desperate McCain campaign are trying to connect Barack to William Ayers using age-old guilt by association techniques. Here's the truth: the smear associating Barack to Ayers is "phony," "tenuous," - even "exaggerated at best, if not outright false."

William Ayers is a professor of education at the University of Illinois at Chicago, with whom Barack served on the board of a charitable anti-poverty organization in the mid-1990s. According to the Associated Press, they are not close: "No evidence shows they were "pals" or even close when they worked on community boards years ago"

Smear groups and the McCain campaign are trying to connect Obama to acts Ayers committed 40 years ago - when Barack was just eight years old. Here's what the New York Times reported on the connection:

But the two men do not appear to have been close. Nor has Mr. Obama ever expressed sympathy for the radical views and actions of Mr. Ayers, whom he has called "somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago, when I was 8."


Barack has publicly denounced Ayers' radical actions from the 1960's:

Senator Obama strongly condemns the violent actions of the Weathermen group, as he does all acts of violence. But he was an eight-year-old child when Ayers and the Weathermen were active, and any attempt to connect Obama with events of almost forty years ago is ridiculous.


Fight back with the truth: make sure anyone who has seen this smear also sees this page.

The New York Times: Obama And Ayers "Do Not Appear To Have Been Close."

A review of records of the schools project and interviews with a dozen people who know both men, suggest that Mr. Obama, 47, has played down his contacts with Mr. Ayers, 63. But the two men do not appear to have been close. Nor has Mr. Obama ever expressed sympathy for the radical views and actions of Mr. Ayers, whom he has called "somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago, when I was 8."

The Associated Press: Obama And Ayers Relationship Is "Exaggerated At Best If Not Outright False:"

Her reference to Obama's relationship with William Ayers, a member of the Vietnam-era Weather Underground, was exaggerated at best if not outright false. No evidence shows they were "pals" or even close when they worked on community boards years ago and Ayers hosted a political event for Obama early in his career. Obama, who was a child when the Weathermen were planting bombs, has denounced Ayers' radical views and actions.

CNN: Palin's Claim That Obama Is Palling Around With Terrorists Is "False."

CNN Fact check wrote about Palin's claim that Obama is palling around with terrorists, "Verdict: False. There is no indication that Ayers and Obama are now "palling around," or that they have had an ongoing relationship in the past three years. Also, there is nothing to suggest that Ayers is now involved in terrorist activity or that other Obama associates are."

The New York Times:

[T]he men first met in 1995 through the education project, the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, and have encountered one another occasionally in public life or in the neighborhood. They have not spoken by phone or exchanged e-mails since Mr. Obama began serving in the United States Senate in January 2005 and last met more than a year ago when they bumped into each other on the street in Hyde Park.

The Washington Post:

Both Obama and Ayers were members of the board of an anti-poverty group, the Woods Fund of Chicago, between 1999 and 2002. In addition, Ayers contributed $200 to Obama's re-election fund to the Illinois State Senate in April 2001.

"The only hard facts that have come out so far are the $200 contribution by Ayers to the Obama re-election fund, and their joint membership of the eight-person Woods Fund Board.

The Detroit Free-Press:

A television commercial running in Michigan and several other battleground states by the American Issues Project insinuates that U. S. Sen. Barack Obama sympathizes with terrorists because of his acquaintance with William Ayers, a Distinguished Professor of Education at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

This ad is a close cousin of Jerome Corsi's Obama Nation book, a tome full of fabrications, half-truths, and delusions, penned by the Swift Boat architect himself about the Democratic presidential candidate.

Ayers was never convicted of a crime. He went on to earn a doctorate, write 14 books and earn the distinction of "Senior University Scholar" and "Distinguished Professor." People grow and evolve. It is no surprise that University of Chicago Law Professor Obama would cross paths with Ayers in civic organizations as well as in their neighborhood of Hyde Park.

The Chicago Sun-Times:

Obama has said he ''deplored'' what Ayers did in the 1960s and that ''by the time I met him, he is a professor of education at the University of Illinois. We served on a board together that had Republicans, bankers, lawyers, focused on education.

The Republicans don't care to let the truth get in the way of a good
lie. That is the McCain/Palin doctrine so far.
