That's what Mr. Brutally Honest wants to know. For all those who say we are just whining about the media being mean to Republicans, at least look at the video and then watch the Gibson interview with Palin again. If you can't see the difference in the two approaches then you have no credibility. We don't want to be victims, we just want the media to be fair handed, or at least to be honest about why they aren't being.

Charlie and Barack had a nice little conversation about nothing. Charlie asked specific questions, and Barack side-stepped with words like "mind set". Then Barack mentioned a campaign quote that he was "...palling around with Ayers...". Notice he never said it wasn't true or what their actual relationship was, he just called it a cheap political shot.
The icing on the cake: "Sponsored by Annenberg, who had been an ambassador and close friend of Ronald Reagan's". Nowhere is there any real admittance of what happened to the funding, and what interactions took place between him and Ayers. No lies, just no details, with Obama looking down a lot.

Unless, of course, you just go to an extreme leftest view, where they are blindly saying, "Go Obama! He was cool and hung out with a guy that helped bomb the pentagon! Woohoo!"

Wow. I went to see part of the interview at youtube and while listening, decided to glance at some of the comments. Here's the winner:
...ayers is a college professor, not a terrorist kid any more. go do research on the 'underground', don't be uninformed about these poor kids, who felt they had no options.
Poor Bill Ayers. Poor Bernardine Dohrn. They HAD to bomb buildings.

Heh. "Research" would tell this genius that the only reason they went underground was because some of their associates, including Ayer's girlfriend, blew themselves up while assembling a nail bomb. Ayers was also implicated in this botched bombing, thus went underground. There are some real ignorant petards in the comment section.

The MSM is only "history" IF Obama LOSES!
They are "All-In" on this election because the Dems have PROMISED them the "Fairness Doctrine" will be adopted.
Without TalkRadio and Internet sites (like THIS ONE) the MSM becomes the only game in town again!!!
THAT is what they are counting on! Destroy the competition...funnel communications through them! And what a "funnel"!! 90+% of all non-local newspaper stories come from one of three sources: NY Times, Reuters, A/P.

Exactly, don't be uninformed and don't be misinformed.
Bill Ayers was the son of the Chairman and CEO of Commonwealth Edison. Bill Ayers' father even has a College named after him at NorthWestern University, the Thomas G. Ayers College of Commerce and Industry. Bill Ayers was anything but a POOR KID who had no options.
Before Bernadine Dohrn went underground and started bombing, she had graduated with honors from the University of Chicago and had earned a J.D. from the University of Chicago Law School. She too was anything but a POOR KID with no options.

They were Marxists with a whim they could destroy the American government with bombs. When that didn't work out for them they hid out until they were found. After their trial which was botched because of tainted evidence Ayers was quoted "Guilty as hell, free as a bird." After that they decided to destroy the country by working from within for their Marxist causes and friends.
See where its gotten them? One election away from their goal, all because their friends in the Main Stream Media decided *they* wanted a Democrat elected this time and refused to investigate the anointed nominee.
