Article: “Palin Seizes On Obama’s Ayers Ties”
Writer: Michael Abramowitz
Publication: The Washington Post
Governor Sarah Palin took advantage of the connection between Barack Obama and Bill Ayers (former radical activist) last week when she described Obama as “someone who sees America as imperfect enough to pal around with terrorists.” Although Ayers is not a foreign terrorist as the comment made it appear, Palin thinks of Ayers as a dangerous domestic terrorist. The Republican’s defended this quote with “Palin attacked Obama of her own volition, but the issues she raised was legitimate,” said McCain’s aide. Even during the primaries, Senator Hilary Rodham Clinton predicted that the Republicans would target the Ayers-Obama relationship.
I was frankly surprised how low Governor Palin was willing to stoop in order to badmouth the competition. Her comment was very controversial and if the public did not bother to research the accusations, they might go on thinking that Obama is hanging out with Osama on the weekends. Not cool Palin.
