Author Defends Claim That Ayers Helped With Obama’s Memoir

"I definitely do not say he 'wrote' Barack Obama's book."

Editor's note: This is a quote from the section of Anderson's book that deals with Ayers role in Obama's writing -- These oral histories, along with a partial manuscript and a truckload of notes, were given to Ayers. "Everyone knew they were friends and that they worked on various projects together," another Hyde Park neighbor pointed out. "It was no secret. Why would it be? People liked them both." In the end, Ayers's contribution to Barack's Dreams From My Father would be significant--so much so that the book's language, oddly specific references, literary devices, and themes would bear a jarring similarity to Ayers's own writing...thanks to help from the veteran writer Ayers, Barack would be able to submit a manuscript to his editors at Times Books."

Howard! Why so defensive? The White House isn’t pleased? Oooo! Then let’s go after the author. Great journalistic skills, Howard!

Just Sayin   September 27th, 2009 - 7:32 pm

The Obamaniacs in the MSM fall in line when defending their messiah. To bad he’s a false prophet and leading his followers down the wrong road while calling his detractors racist. Yep, Obama has managed to polarize the nation in a quick 6 months while screaming racism along the way.

With the advance software now available they can compair writing sample.

It looks like Obama did not write big sections of his book.

Oops!

Accuracy doesn’t matter when we’re talking about the Messiah, Barack Hussein Obama Mmm-Mmmm-Mmm.

stacy   September 27th, 2009 - 8:15 pm

ummm this is how they silence big news.

Obama lied about his relationship with Ayers.

They loved Jeremiah Wright.

Michelle is a radical who aids in the puppeting of Barack.

Who is this man? . . . I really want to know! Screw you stupid liberals for ignoring these festering soars on this mans past!

dontflagmebro   September 27th, 2009 - 8:33 pm

MSM just is not going to do there job. America is ending in a whimper of censorship and failed oaths.

hwp   September 27th, 2009 - 9:33 pm

Even this idiot claims that the Obama’s rushed their daughter to the hospital with “spinal menengitis”…..Sasha NEVER HAD MENENGITIS!!! Obama said she was diagnosed with menengitis..NOT! They’re all liars I’m getting so tired of all the BS!!! They just can’t keep all their lies straight!!!

Andy from Beaverton   September 27th, 2009 - 9:45 pm

Why is it that Obama’s girlfriend (still unnamed) and Ayers’s girlfriend have identical descriptions of features, the same relationships with their parents and both had grandfathers with mansions surrounded by lakes?

Mmm... mmm... BAD!   September 28th, 2009 - 12:20 am

Mark my words: 0bama will go down as the WORST President of the 21st Century (if we last that long under him…and yes, we ARE under him!)

You’ve seen 0bama BOW to the Saudis and you’ve heard 0bama talk cr@p about America AND Americans- I mean HOW MANY MORE TIMES DO YOU REALLY WANNA HEAR 0BAMA APOLOGIZE or say, “I this and I that and I’m the one and I’m special and I’m so verrry cool and I have the NEA making posters of me (at taxpayers’ expense) and I want school kids worshipping me and blah, blah, blah and America sucks, or America is less than satisfactory compared to the rest of the world, or whatever…” Dude sucks!

Do you really think that speech 0bama made to American “schoochildren” wasn’t changed after the story became public? OF COURSE IT WAS! Remember the lesson plans and curriculum designed to ask “What can YOU DO to help HIM!” The Federal Dept of Education (abolish them, please) had to throw that cr@p out before 0bama gave the new and improved (rewritten and toned-down) speech- duhhh!

And now 0bama’s got his Democr@p minions playing the RACE CARD against ANYONE WHO SPEAKS OUT against him! That’s straight-up WRONG and an injustice to actual racism that still does occur (yes, sadly, it does, but don’t expect 0bama to help there- heck, he’s a racist himself (and NOT a supporter of my local police either, by-the-way). Besides, his Democr@p party would lose their Saul Alinsky weapon-of-choice: STOKING THE HATE MERCHANTS! And they ARE good at that! Whew!

And 0bama says with a straight face (he’s verrry good at lying) he had NO IDEA about the money A.C.O.R.N. received- HE’S A D@MN LIAR! OF COURSE HE KNEW! Heck, The “C” and the “O” in A.C.O.R.N. stand for “Community Organizer”- duhhh! And they were slated to get $8.6 BILLION WITH A “B” DOLLARS IN THE STIMULUS! Hello…McFly! Anyone home?

Heck, 0bama didn’t even write ‘his memoir’ Dreams from My Father! The terrorist (and writer) William Ayers did! AND EVERYONE KNOWS THAT! EVEN THE NEW YORK TIMES! Shhh…

Well, all I can say to you 0bama is NO YOU CAN’T! You are SO COMPLETELY FREAKIN’ CLUELESS and OUT OF YOUR LEAGUE that you should be THROWN OUT ON YOUR EAR and IMPEACHED! And THEN do time BEHIND BARS! Yeah, that sounds about right, you USURPER.

Would you really put it past this 0bama character to not be a schemer? Not be manipulative? Not be into all that subterfuge? HE’S FROM CHICAGO! And he’s the ONLY PRESIDENT EVER we really know nothing of…heck, he’s spent MILLIONS of dollars of ‘his own’ money keeping documents, records and his identity hidden from the public- and that’s a FACT! So far, he’s spent more money doing this than the average American makes in a lifetime WORKING FULLTIME! So go ahead and ask yourself this tough question: Who the heck is he REALLY? What the heck is HE HIDING? Or maybe even this one: WOULD HE MAKE PEOPLE DISAPPEAR TO FURTHER HIS (OR SOMEONE ELSE’S) AGENDA? Jeez, that last one is sure as heck a tough one- God forbid…

When did he start saluting the flag again?

Yeah, I don’t trust him…he doesn’t have character- HE IS ONE! And I hope our country survives!

PS- Hey Deval Patrick- politics-shmolitics, what you did was wrong! You crawled so far up 0bama’s arse his stink will be on you for life! And he’ll still flush you when he’s done- duhhh…

Time for Democr@ps to ask themselves if they’ll “walk the plank” for this ‘man’… I say make HIM walk!

PPS- I think the Navy still does keel-hauling… Those barnacles would expose him good!

RobbieK   September 28th, 2009 - 12:30 am

Obama DIDN’T write his book. Obama is a HORRIBLE writer, just like he is a HORRIBLE speaker when he doesn’t have a teleprompter.

Lee   September 28th, 2009 - 1:54 am

Well if it weren’t for the internet, Fox News, and Talk Radio we would be in the dark. Each and everyday some new lie, or newly exposed lie and I am shocked that the country cannot impeach this person who nobody really knows except……………….???? He ran his campaign on lies, he continues to lie, he will always lie. We must hold him accountable for his lies.

wake up   September 28th, 2009 - 2:20 am

IMPORTANT!!
Don’t take your eyes off congress / senate.

It’s obvious that POTUS waited until now to confront Iran, delayed decision on Afghanistan, gave controversial speeches at U.N., imigration AMNESTY, racial speech at the CBC, and many other distractions…. to slide toxic policy in under the radar, or at least with less resistance.
HE IS OVERWHELMING THE SYSTEM!
DON’T BE FOOLED!
WE ARE BEING PLAYED!
ATTEND, OR ORGANIZE RALLIES!
Keep contacting representatives, DO NOT BECOME COMPLACENT!

RobbieK   September 28th, 2009 - 8:29 am

The book is full of Ayer’s constant grammatical errors. He uses the word “There” when describing a possessive, when the word should be “Their”. Whoever wrote this book was not only a horrible writer, but was obviously the Editor.

gael   September 28th, 2009 - 9:01 am

Who IS this “news” guy??!?

He is trying SO hard to defend OBIE that he has lost sight of his job!!! He is aching to rewrite the DOPE’s story to Big Media’s precampaign version. He is rushing to defend the Subject of the Book!!!! What an idiotic jerk this clown is.

“the white house is not pleased” Oh dear. And that IS after all the target audience of the book. He even sloughs off the “one-time terrorist” !!!! Has that become the new standard? If you only commit one terrorist act (and Billy committd far more, h just didn’t get caught more than once!)then it really doesn’t count? Hilarious example of Media Bias….way too funny.

Sasha DID NOT have meningitis, they THOUGHT she had it. Michelle O said it herself. But, B.O. Said they were treating her for it while waiting for the results to come in.

spawn44   September 28th, 2009 - 1:06 pm

CNN and the other leftist non american spin doctors in the media wonder why they are losing their asses. The dimwit is defending obama’s association with terroists, which is the same story line you will hear from obama and the pelosi led socialist democrat. This is american. We will vote your commie asses out of office.

Don't Drink the Kool Aid   September 28th, 2009 - 9:08 pm

A new study just performed by the Obama We’re Watching You Foundation (Fake) shows that a full 87% of what Obama authored or actually spoke is PURE BS.
____________________________________________________________________
