"Look, we don't care about an old, washed-up terrorist and his wife," McCain said. "That's not the point here."
"He's a terrorist!" a man in the audience screamed without making clear to whom he was referring.
"We need to know the full extent of the relationship," McCain replied. Later, McCain told ABC News: "It's a factor about Sen. Obama's candor and truthfulness with the American people."
Obama has denounced Ayers and his violent actions and views. He dismisses McCain's criticism as an effort to "score cheap political points."
What Obama said yesterday is he thought Bill Ayers had rehabilitated himself. Well, I don't believe that because Mr. Ayers has never repented his crimes of bombings. He said he wished he did MORE!
Here is a documentary on the Weatherman on youtube. The Weatherman were born from the SDS, an organization called Students for Democratic Society (and were pacifists at the time). There was a split at their 1969 convention where Bernadine Dohrn took the rains and made the Weatherman a violent arm of the SDS organization.
