Here's a video of their crimes and who they are

Obama says he's got such superior judgement for never having to vote on Iraq, but his judgment of whom he chooses to associate with and be sponsored by doesn't indicate good judgment at all.  If anything, it indicates that he is a useful vessel for radical Leftists and anti-Americans to influence American government.  He has to be stopped.

I am not very fond of terrorists.


I saw that, but it doesn't go into the bombings I keep hearing about.  What did they bomb, besides themselves?

Leftist idiots.

Somebody from Oregon confirm this for me (been a long tome since I went there) but

Supposedly, at U. of Oregon, they were the ones responsible for dynamiting a university building that collpsed into the basement: problem was they chose the music department building to blow up.  

It didn't win them much support. Funny thing is: the leaders mentioned in the Wiki above have not really renounced violence.  They have not really renounced communism either.  

These are dangerous folks!  I'd feel better if they were all in jail.

Thank you. If a man is known by the company he keeps, and in Obama's case that company is comprised of people that are virulently anti-American and have been actively committed to the overhtrow of our government, I'm quite sure that man doesn't need to be our President.

Bernardine Dohrn graduated from the same HS as I did only about 4 or 5 years ahead of me.. All the Weatherman and SDS crap was a big deal when I was just getting into HS.  Their was a shoot out in Milwaukee too but I can't remember which outfit it was. And then the bombing of the science or math building in Madison WI  that killed a guy that was in the building. The guys that did that fled to Canada and were caught .  Revolutionary Anarchists is what they are..  Now they teach in the Universities of the country and spread the commie crap all around.

Quoted:
Blowing up police cars and police stations?  Hell, I'll quote it for the folks too lazy to click the link:

* June 1969 – The "Action Faction" of the SDS releases a detailed statement of their political ideology in the official SDS newspaper New Left Notes. This essay concludes with the quotation "You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows," which gives rise to its adherents being called "Weathermen." The quote came from the Bob Dylan song "Subterranean Homesick Blues".

   * 18-22 June, 1969 – The SDS National Convention, held in Chicago, Illinois, sees the organization collapse as a student group and the Weathermen seizing control of the SDS National Office. Henceforth any activity run from the SDS National Office is Weatherman controlled.

   * July, 1969 – Bernardine Dohrn, Eleanor Raskin, Dianne Donghi, Peter Clapp, David Millstone and Diana Oughton, all representing the Weathermen, travel to Cuba where they meet with representatives of the North Vietnamese and Cuban governments.

   * August 1969 – Weatherman member Linda Sue Evans travels to North Vietnam. Weatherman activists meet in Cleveland, Ohio, for the purpose of making final plans for their "National Action" or "Days of Rage" protests scheduled to be held in Chicago in October, 1969.

   * 4 September 1969 – Weather women members from various parts of the country converge on South Hills High School in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where they run through the school shouting anti-war slogans and distributing literature promoting the "National Action." The term "Pittsburgh 26" refers to the 26 women arrested in connection with this incident.

   * 24 September 1969 – A group of Weatherman members become involved in a confrontation with Chicago Police when they refuse to clear a street during a demonstration supporting the "National Action," and protesting the commencement of an Anti-riot Act trial against eight individuals charged with initiating the riots in connection with the 1968 Democratic National Convention.

   * 7 October 1969 – The Haymarket Police Statue is bombed in Chicago, Illinois apparently as a "kickoff" for the "Days of Rage" riots in the city October 8-11, 1969. No suspects are developed in this matter. The Weathermen later claim credit for the bombing in their book, "Prairie Fire."

   * 8 October-11, 1969 – The "Days of Rage" riots occur in Chicago in which 287 Weatherman members from throughout the country were arrested and a large amount of property damage was done. Some of the current underground WUO members became fugitives when they failed to appear for trial in connection with their arrests during these four days.

   * November-December, 1969 – The first contingent of the Venceremos Brigade (VB) departs for Cuba to harvest sugar cane. A small number of Weatherman members participate in this trip.

   * 6 December 1969 – Several Chicago Police cars parked in a precinct parking lot at 3600 North Halsted Street, Chicago, are bombed. The WUO stated in their book "Prairie Fire" that they had perpetrated the explosion to protest the shooting deaths of the Illinois Black Panther Party leaders Fred Hampton and Mark Clark on 4 December 1969, by police officers.

   * 27 December-31, 1969 – The Weathermen hold a "War Council" meeting in Flint, Michigan, where they finalize their plans to submerge into an underground status from which they plan to commit strategic acts of sabotage against the government. Thereafter they are called the "Weather Underground Organization" (WUO).

   * February, 1970 – The WUO closes the SDS National Office in Chicago, concluding the major campus-based organization of the 1960s. The first contingent of the VB returns from Cuba and the second contingent departs. By mid-February the bulk of the leading WUO members submerge into an underground status.

   * 13 February 1970 - Several police vehicles of the Berkeley, California, Police Department are bombed in the police parking lot.

   * 16 February 1970 – A bomb is detonated at the Golden Gate Park branch of the San Francisco Police Department, killing one officer and injuring a number of other policemen. No organization claims credit for either bombing.

   * March, 1970 – Several underground WUO members become federal fugitives when they unlawfully flee to avoid prosecution; warrants are issued in connection with their failure to appear for trial in Chicago.

   * 6 March 1970 – 34 sticks of dynamite are discovered in the 13th Police District of the Detroit, Michigan police bombing. During February and early March, 1970, members of the WUO, led by Bill Ayers, are reported to be in Detroit, during that period, for the purpose of bombing a police facility.

   * 6 March 1970 – Another group blows themselves up when their "bomb factory" located in New York's Greenwich Village accidentally explodes. WUO members Theodore Gold, Diana Oughton, and Terry Robbins die in this accident. The bomb was intended to be planted at a non-commissioned officer's dance at Fort Dix, New Jersey. The bomb was packed with nails to inflict maximum casualties upon detonation.

   * 30 March 1970 – Chicago Police discover a WUO "bomb factory" on Chicago's north side. A subsequent discovery of a WUO "weapons cache" in a south side Chicago apartment several days later ends WUO activity in the city.

   * 2 April 1970 – A federal grand jury in Chicago returns a number of indictments charging WUO members with violation of federal anti-riot laws. Also, a number of additional federal warrants charging "unlawful flight to avoid prosecution" are returned in Chicago based on the failure of WUO members to appear for trial in local cases. (The Anti-riot Law charges were later dropped in January, 1974.)

   * 21 May 1970 – The WUO under Bernardine Dohrn's name releases its "Declaration of a State of War" communique.

   * 6 June 1970 – The WUO sends a letter claiming credit for bombing of the San Francisco Hall of Justice; however, no explosion actually took place. Months later, workmen in this building located an unexploded device which had apparently been dormant for some time.

   * July, 1974 – The WUO releases its book Prairie Fire in which they indicate the need for a unified Communist Party. They encourage the creation of study groups to discuss their ideology, but continue to stress the need for violent acts.

The Prairie Fire Organizing Committee (PFOC) arises from the teachings in this book and is organized by many former WUO members.

The robbers were stopped by police later that day and engaged them in a shootout, murdering two police officers and one Brinks guard as well as wounding several others.

It's too early in this thread to snip all of that, which needs more circulation anyway, not less. Now however, according to Obama, Bill Ayers is simply "an English professor." Right, and the Unabomber was just a hermit living alone in a log cabin.
