The Republic of T. and The Buddha Diaries both lead today with an article by Robert Mackey for Huffington Post, discussing Sarah Palin’s shameful attempt to defame Barack Obama because of his association (on a civic panel) with William Ayers, former Weather Underground member back in the ’60’s.
Well shame on you, Sarahcuda. Seems you aren’t exactly lily-white yourself when it comes to much closer
associations. As Lt. Col. Mackey writes,
There is a big, big difference between a limited association with someone who had committed a crime 40 years before, and being married to a man who supports the destruction of the United States.

Though he will have my vote, I have not drank the Obama kool-aid. That he has had *any* association with the Weather Underground only increases my endearment.
Ah, yes, I remember those days well. An undergrad research project comes to mind. Who knows which way the wind blows, indeed.
