Obama - Ayers, Terrorist

Have you ever been a friend or business associate of a terrorist? Not someone who, to your shock and horror, turned out secretly to have bombed government buildings. No, the question is whether you’ve ever befriended an unreconstructed radical whose past was well known to you when you entered his orbit and walked through doors he opened for you. Have you been chummy with an unapologetic terrorist who, years after you’d known and worked closely with him, was still telling the New York Times he regretted only failing to carry out more attacks — and that America still “makes me want to puke”?

Barack Obama has. Stanley Kurtz at the NRO is investigating the depth of that connection and where the $50 million in contributions to the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, an educational initiative that Ayers was instrumental in starting and that Obama chaired in the 1990s.

FNC seems interested has this update about what is in some of the boxes -- Stanley Kurtz is promising afull report.
“At the end of five years, will we have broken the mold? Not much seems to be bubbling up that is inspiring or substantive,” the minutes say, paraphrasing Obama.
Not much got done, but millions disappeared. The Chicago Annenberg Challenge, raised a total of $160 million for school development, and had little to show for the money spent.
