Here is another great article about he association between Barack Obama and William Ayers. It seems the more Obama denies having an association with Ayers, more comes to light.  

“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, Mr. Ayers and his cohorts bombed the Pentagon, and he has never expressed regret for his actions. Barack Obama's first run for the Illinois State Senate was launched at a 1995 gathering at Mr. Ayers's home.

The Obama campaign has struggled to downplay that association. Last April, Sen. Obama dismissed Mr. Ayers as just "a guy who lives in my neighborhood," and "not somebody who I exchange ideas with on a regular basis." Yet documents in the CAC archives make clear that Mr. Ayers and Mr. Obama were partners in the CAC.”

ID the the simple fact is that people that should be outraged about this really don't care and will vote for Obama anyway. It's a sign of the times, can't rock if you don't shock. I think they are just looking at November 2, with a who-cares attitude for the 4 years to follow.

If you ask me, Rezko is worse because it goes to Obama's business ethics, or total lack thereof.

I tend to agree.  But it is disconcerting to have to choose between being blown up, or given a cement overcoat at the bottom of the lake.
