News services in Israel are on fire with talk that Barack Obama has just sent a supporter of the terror group Hamas as his envoy to Syria and Egypt to relay news of his policies to come. Last September Israel’s suspicions were heated up about “former” Obama advisor Robert Malley being sent to Syria with a George Soros funded group. It was then claimed by Egyptian sources that Malley... 

By Sher Zieve After observing the growth of Barack Hussein Obama’s increasingly militant and dictatorial movement over the last several months, I have—on many occasions—been reminded of the infamous Russian tyrant Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin. As the actual facts about Stalin may now have been omitted from US middle and high school teaching textbooks, I’ll provide a brief summary... 

By Doug Edelman The Obama defenders are complaining that William Ayers’ radical bombings in the late 1960s and early 1970s are dismissible as "old news." They declare Obama's associations to be "irrelevant." (Somehow I'm prompted to wonder what they'd say if McCain were a friend of a 1940s Nazi prison camp guard.) Yet Obama's associations are relevant, as they... 

By Glenn Beck CNN-With a little less than a month before the election, this week started with a re-examination of Barack Obama's association with William Ayers.  Whether holding a career-launching state Senate campaign event at the home of an unrepentant terrorist should disqualify you from the presidency is up to the people to decide. I tend to see it as a rather low bar to clear if you're... 

By Stephen Dinan WASHINGTON TIMES – The McCain campaign has released a statement from John M. Murtaugh, who as a child had his house firebombed by the Weather Underground and who links the group's founder, William Ayers, to Barack Obama. Share/Save Read More →

There has been some wishful thinking among liberals that McPalin will stop bringing up the Bill Ayres stuff, mostly based on anonymous sourcing and the fact that McCain didn't mention the 1960s radical during last night's debate. They were dead wrong. Share/Save Read More →

By Ed Morrissey HOT AIR – Chris Cillizza wonders whether John McCain may have decided to drop the William Ayers topic when it didn’t come up in last night’s debate.  The McCain campaign answered today by releasing a statement from John Murtaugh regarding his close brush with the Weather Underground terrorists that Ayers helped lead.  It doesn’t look like the McCain... 

By Victor Davis Hanson NRO – On the Ayers matter, there is only one question that matters. After Ayers wrote his Fugitive Days (2001), and after he told the NY Times (on 9/11 of all dates!) that "I don't regret setting bombs. I feel we didn't do enough," and adding when asked if he would do it all again, "I don't want to discount the possibility,''  did... 

FEDERAL REVIEW – Reports continue to come in that Barack Obama’s Presidential Campaign is threatening legal action against his critics. On Tuesday (September 23), CBS affiliate KMOV reported that Obama had enlisted a number of Missouri law enforcement officials, including local sheriffs and prosecutors, “to target anyone who lies or runs a misleading television ad [against Obama]... 

By Michael Barone US NEWS & WORLD REPORT – Stanley Kurtz has been investigating the Chicago Annenberg Challenge files in the Richard J. Daley Library at the University of Illinois-Chicago Circle, and he has reported on his results in the Wall Street Journal. I have written before on Ayers, the unrepentant Weather Underground terrorist bomber, who claims to have set bombs at the U.S. Capitol,... 

By Scott Johnson POWERLINE – The news regarding the presidential campaign has been delivered on two tracks. On one track the mainstream media have played their usual role of the Victorian gentleman described by Tom Wolfe in The Right Stuff. In this capacity, to borrow Wolfe's formulation, the mainstream media have prescribed the proper emotion, the seemly sentiment, the fitting moral tone,...
