What ideologies or beliefs do you think Obama's association with Ayers imparts to him? What things do you believe Obama is willing to accept that most other Americans cannot? Why do you think that simply knowing this person says more about Obama's ideas than his own writing and his own actions? What, exactly, are you afraid of?
I have no clue what ideologies or beliefs Obama's association with Ayers imparts to him. That was a point which I made quite clear. I believe that Ayers despises the United States and everything it stands for. I believe Ayers is a small minded, hateful extreme liberal that thinks anybody and everybody is better than America and Americans. And I think it probable that Obama overlooked all of that in order to garner whatever favors he could from Ayers. How much does Obama tolerate the attitudes and beliefs and activities of all those people I named in my post to Parados--even though he says I did not name them? They were just a page or two back.
If Obama did not have a problem with any of those people before they became political liabilities to him, how much of their values and world view does he tolerate? How much does he share? There is nothing in some of his writings and some of his more unguarded campaign rhetoric that offers me encouragement that he he is not a radical liberal and whether or not he shares the views of the more hateful radicals, it is not comforting to know that he tolerated them out of expediency.
These are legitimate questions. And I do not want a President who embraces or is even willing to tolerate the hateful views of those people I named. That he did not repudiate a single one of them until they became political liabilities to him is not reassuring. I don't want that kind of President.
I think no American should want that kind of President. And those who presume to attack or ridicule or demean or insult me for asking the questions only reinforces my opinion that Obama worshippers don't care what his views are or are in denial. And that isn't reassuring either.
Now please answer my questions or this discussion is over.
