In an article entitled, "Obama and Ayers Pushed Radicalism," Stanley Kurtz gives us an idea why Obama would rather be known as a "community organizer" than mention his actual executive experience.
Thanks to America's unrepentant terrorist, Bill Ayers, Obama led an education foundation called the Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC).
According to Kurtz, the CAC was the brainchild of Bill Ayers, a founder of the Weather Underground. Among other terrorists acts, Ayers' Weather Underground bombed the Pentagon. Ayers has never expressed regret for his terrorist activities. And Obama has never dissociated himself from the still unrepentant terrorist.
When Obama is confronted about his continuing friendship with Ayers, Obama defends this association by saying he was only eight when Ayers was engaged in "detestable acts 40 years ago." As if that could justify Obama's poor judgment in associating with a domestic terrorist.
It is widely known that Obama's first run for the Illinois State Senate was launched at a 1995 gathering at the Ayers's home. Obama has struggled to downplay that association.
Documents in the CAC archives make clear that Mr. Ayers and Mr. Obama were partners in the CAC.
Instead of improving Chicago's public schools, under the leadership of the Ayers/Obama team, the CAC set out to achieve the CAC's agenda. That agenda flowed from Mr. Ayers's educational philosophy, which called for infusing students and their parents with a radical political commitment, and which downplayed achievement tests in favor of activism.
Last night Kurtz appeared on "The O'Reilly Factor" and discussed Obama's radical connections with Ayers. You can watch the discussion in the following video:
