I guess Lynn DeLean-Weber didn’t want to use her hyphenated name because it would have sounded too liberal.

Lynn won’t admit it, but she has been a liberal for a long time. She may have voted Republican in the past, however, her ideals have been liberal for a long time.

Let me guess: Lynn is a pro-choice Republican. She’s now, or soon to be, an empty nester.

She wants Obama to take us in a different direction, but she doesn’t know what that is.

She can stare at shiny objects for hours.

Good on Obama! I live for the day when the under-the-radar calls and whisper campaigns that claim God-only-knows what in order to damage a candidate will be a thing of the past. And that will only happen when they are met head-on as Obama is doing in this counter-move.

Since I am first up I will use my psychic powers (actually I have two psychic powers thereby making them bicyclic powers) to predict the following:
1. At least one post will condemn this robocall a being “negative in the extreme” for daring to criticize the McCain campaign;
2. At least one will question the veracity of the person in the call actually being a Republican;
3. At least one will be thrilled at the speed of the Obama campaign response to the “Ayers ad”;
4. The majority will not care as long as they do not receive either call during dinner hour or after 9 PM.

Ooops, I guess I wasn’t first up — so much for my psychic powers.

Frank Marshall Davis, Ayres, Khalidi, Klonsky, Rezko Acorn. and on and on
——–
The mainstream press steadfastly refuses to delve into Barack Obama’s radicalism, his Leftist revolutionary collaboration with self-identified communists from Frank Marshall Davis to Bill Ayers. The McCain campaign, moreover, has contributed mightily to the whitewash by ineptly seizing on the issue’s least important aspect: Obama’s abject dishonesty about the depth of his relationships with committed Leftists — e.g., the portrayal of Ayers as just “a guy who lives in my neighborhood.”
(Petrified of being smeared as a racist, McCain has never mentioned Davis, whom Obama identifies only as “Frank” in his memoir. And, of course, utterance of Jeremiah Wright’s name is verboten in McCain circles, notwithstanding that his Trinity Church, where Obama was a 20-year member, is a font of Marxist Black Liberation Theology and thus critical to our understanding of Obama’s invocations of “change” and “spreading the wealth.”)
With what little media oxygen there has been sucked out by the largely uninformative discussion of Ayers (and his wife and Weather Underground ally, Bernadine Dohrn)— in which the mantra “unrepentant terrorist” has been a pale substitute for the critical matter of the Ayers’s ideology that Obama plainly shares — much has been missed. Significantly, that includes another key Obama contact, Mike Klonsky.
Here’s what you need to know. Klonsky is an unabashed communist whose current mission is to spread Marxist ideology in the American classroom. Obama funded him to the tune of nearly $2 million. Obama, moreover, gave Klonsky a broad platform to broadcast his ideas: a “social justice” blog on the official Obama campaign website.
To be clear, as it seems always necessary to repeat when Obamaniacs, in their best Saul Alinsky tradition, shout down the opposition: This is not about guilt by association. The issue is not that Obama knows Klonsky … or Ayers … or Dohrn … or Wright … or Rashid Khalidi …
The issue is that Obama promoted and collaborated with these anti-American radicals. The issue is that he shared their ideology.
Klonsky’s communist pedigree could not be clearer. His father, Robert Klonsky, was an American communist who was convicted in the mid-Fifties for advocating the forcible overthrow of the United States government — a violation of the Smith Act, anti-communist legislation ultimately gutted by the Supreme Court. In the Sixties, Klonsky the younger teamed with Ayers, Dohrn, and other young radicals to form the Students for a Democratic Society. It was out of the SDS that Ayers and Dohrn helped found the Weatherman terrorist group.

Klonsky took a different path, albeit one that led inexorably to a new partnership with Ayers, which Obama mightily helped underwrite. Upon splitting off from the SDS, Klonsky formed a Maoist organization, first known as the “October League,” which ultimately became the “Communist Party (Marxist Leninist).”
Klonsky was CP(ML)’s chairman. He was so highly thought of by Mao’s regime that he was among the first Americans invited to visit Communist China. When he was feted there in 1977, a year after Mao’s death, the communist leadership hailed Klonsky’s party as “reflecting the aspirations of the proletariat and working people.”
Klonsky was a regular guest of the Chicoms until 1981, when the relationship soured over the post-Mao leadership’s free-market reforms.(Yes, Klonsky is apparently more committed to communism than China’s own Communist Party.) So what was a Leftist radical without platform to do? Why, what else? He became an American college professor specializing in education.
After getting his doctorate, Klonsky eventually made his way to Chicago and hooked up with his old SDS comrade (and self-professed “small ‘c’ communist”) Bill Ayers. Together, they co-founded the Small Schools Workshop in 1991. The goal — as Ayers has repeatedly made clear, most prominently in a 2006 speech before Hugo Chavez at an education forum in Caracas — is to bring the same Leftist revolution that has always galvanized them into the classroom.
The concept may be called small schools, but Klonsky and Ayers uniquely grasp the force-multiplier effect. In a small class, the teacher preaching the “social justice” gospel that American capitalism is a racist, materialist, imperialist cauldron of injustice can have greater impact on the students he seeks to mold into his conception of the “good citizen” — and on the teachers he is teaching to be preachers. Writing trenchantly about how this system of “critical pedagogy” short-changes the basic education needs of disadvantaged children, the City Journal’s Sol Stern observes that theorists like
Furthermore, as education remains one of Obama’s core areas of concern — a fact that should frighten you — he gave Klonsky a microphone during the campaign. On the Obama campaign’s official website, Klonsky ran a blog for the candidate, as Klonsky put it, on “education politics and teaching for social justice.” He ran it, that is, until blogger Steve Diamond called attention to it back in June. A that point, the campaign scrubbed the site of all Klonsky traces — a fitting Stalinesque purge, described by Diamond here (and reminiscent of similar efforts to erase the campaign’s false claims about Obama’s relationship with ACORN)

Fellow Chicagoan? 60’s radical? Thats all you can say? How about communist, unrepentant bomber and murderer?

Nothing makes a republican whiner cry louder than a democrat playing by the republican rules and winning. John McCain was a victim of vicious robocalls by Bush 4 years ago and now he does the same thing to Obama and Obama fights back. whine John whine.

I hope that when this election is over, the republicans will remember that they insisted on running a dishonorable, dishonest, divisive campaign and that they must surely reap what they have sown. They are plundering any chance of a peaceful transfer of power and the hope of bipartisan good will necessary to turn this sinking ship around. There cannot be an honest, self-respecting republican of any personal integrity that supports the McSame/Palin tactics of recent weeks. It is one thing to consistently vote against your own economic and social interests, but when you cast a ballot for folks with no regard for the truth, you are running the risk of condemning us all to a national nightmare of governance by corrupt, morally bankrupt, third world thugs.

The only difference between William Ayers and Timothy McVCeigh is a conviction and a needle in the arm.
