Documents Show Obama's Close Ties with Terrorist Ayers

Obama's Support for Ayers' Radical Education Ideology

by Marcia Segelstein

The relationship between Barack Obama and self-confessed domestic terrorist William Ayers is complicated. Many in the media dismiss it as "guilt by association." But it is much more than that. As Dick Morris explained on Hannity & Colmes last night, newly-released documents show a very close relationship between the two men, and a shared vision of education in America.

Bill Ayers is an educator now, with a radical philosophy. In order to further that philosophy, Ayers got a grant of $50 million. He then helped select Obama to distribute that money. But the money didn't go to schools. It went to "external partners of schools," extremist community groups, whose job, according to Morris "was to infuse students with radical ideology." So Obama, who had control of the money, didn't use it to improve test scores, or improve science and math curricula. In fact, the stated goal of the grant was, as Morris puts it, "to get away from a focus on test scores or student achievement and instead focus on radical ideology."

Watch as Dick Morris explains it. We need to know more about exactly where Obama distributed that money, and what that tells us about Obama's beliefs on how education dollars should be spent.

    Then there's Obama being part of an ACORN suit in Chicago to force Citibank to make the kinds of loans back in 1998 that helped to lead to the current crisis.

    Ever notice that with Obama if accused he downplays and denies, then as the truth starts to come out only grudgingly admits - but never fully? He downplayed Ayer, then gradually admitted that he was more than just a guy in the neighborhood. He downplayed Rev. Wright until tapes emerged. His campaign had to amend its documents as more info came out about ACORN in Ohio. etc.

    I wonder what else we haven't learned yet about Obama?

    Another tactic NObama does is to call the accuser a liar as in the case of the abortion survivor and the "Born Alive Infant Protection Act". In this case he claims it "was a different bill", but the documents are on file.

    The latest coming out is he sent his associate to Kenya during their elections to help his cousin, but when he lose, there were riots, christian churches burned, over 1000 people killed, many many more displaced by the war. Please read this on WorldNetDaily.com

The Spirituality and Miracles of St. Clare of Assisi

Image
August 11 is the memorial of St. Clare, one of my favorite saints. She was the first woman to follow the life of radical poverty practiced by St. Francis of Assisi and is the co-founder of the Poor Clares. Although I am not a Franciscan, I have had Franciscan friends, clergy, and spiritual directors instruct me on the beauty of St. Clare's spirituality. I have also learned a great deal from reading about her over the years. Clare and Francis (2007) is a film which depicts the fascinating story of her dramatic conversion and surrender to the will of God. St. Clare is the patron saint of television. She is also the patron of eye disorders, embroiderers, good weather, and telephones. The Contemplative Life The Lady Clare was born into a noble family in Assisi in 1193 and was admired for her great beauty. When she heard Francis of Assisi preach his Lenten homilies at the Church of San Giorgio, she was captivated by his words. At age eighteen, she heard him say: "When the...

Saint Michael de Sanctis: Patron of Cancer Patients

Today is the feast of Saint Michael de Sanctis, also known as St. Michael of the Saints, a Spanish Discalced Trinitarian priest, the patron of cancer patients. Michael Argemir was born on September 29, 1591 at Vic, Catalonia, Spain. At age 6, he told his parents that he planned to become a monk and began modeling his life after Saint Francis of Assisi. Michael’s parents died when he was about ten years old. He then served as an apprentice with a local merchant. During this apprenticeship, he continued his fervent devotion to the Lord, especially to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. At the age of 12, he joined the Trinitarian Friars at Barcelona, taking his vows at St. Lambert’s monastery in Saragosa four years later.  Shortly afterwards, Michael expressed a desire to join the reformed group of Trinitarians and was given permission to do so. He went to the Novitiate at Madrid and, after studies at Seville and Salamanca, he was ordained a priest. Twice he served as Superior of the...

St. Raymond Nonnatus, Patron of Expectant Mothers, Midwives, and Newborn Babies

Image
The saint of the day for August 31 is St. Raymond Nonnatus. He is the patron of expectant mothers, midwives, obstetricians, infertile couples, and newborn babies. Raymond was born at Portella, Catalonia, Spain in 1204, the son of wealthy parents. He was delivered by cesarean section when his mother died in childbirth. Hence his name non natus (not born). In his childhood, he seemed to find pleasure only in his devotions and serious duties. His father, sensing that Raymond was drawn to religious life, ordered him to manage one of the family farms. Raymond readily obeyed but spent his time with the shepherds and workers, studying and praying until his father abandoned the idea of making his son a worldly success. Raymond later joined the the Order of Our Lady of Mercy or the Mercederians, which was founded by St. Peter Nolasco, who devoted to ransoming Christians captured by the Moors. He succeeded Peter as chief ransomer and went to Algeria to ransom slaves. He remained as h...
