American Thinker: Romney should respond to Obama calling him 'radical' by demanding release of Khalidi tape

Consider this another example of a projectionist softball lobbed by Obama directly at Mitt Romney. The latter's handlers are likely to instruct him to take the pitch despite it being one that power hitters dream about. American Thinker's Edward Olshaker highlights the fact that while Obama claims Romney has aligned himself with the 'radical fringe' of his party, Obama's radical affiliations, so far, are ignored by the presumptive Republican nominee.

Via AT:

President Obama recently accused Mitt Romney of allying himself with "the radical fringe of his party," in an e-mail highlighting his occasional fundraising events with Donald Trump, and now the president's campaign is warning that Paul Ryan is a dangerous extremist.

The audacity of this line of attack naturally brings up the issue of Those Whose Names Must Not Be Mentioned -- Obama's own collection of terror supporters and actual terrorists he chose as mentors (and whose influence is disturbingly evident in his foreign policy).  If Romney was waiting for some kind of formal invitation before attacking the president's most glaring weakness, that invitation has arrived.

Obama's fundraising off Romney's "radical" associations is an example of either chutzpah he will get away with or hubris that will come back to haunt him by inviting scrutiny of Obama's closeness with terrorists who appear with him in the suppressed Los Angeles Times video of a 2003 anti-Israel gathering -- former PLO operative Rashid Khalidi (who dedicated a book to Palestinian murderer Yasser Arafat), Bill Ayers (who dedicated a book to Palestinian murderer Sirhan Sirhan), and Bernardine Dohrn.

The guest list also included Ali Abunimah, a close Obama ally who founded the Electronic Intifada website in 2001 (surely Obama realized that the word "intifada" is synonymous with suicide bombings) and the Sanabel debka troupe.  Columnist Debbie Schlussel reported that she witnessed a performance of this Palestinian children's dance group that included "simulating beheadings and stomping on American, Israeli, and British flags."  (Did they let the children use real swords when they acted out the beheadings?  Maybe we'll find out when this comes up in the debates.)

Of course, this kind of Obama projection is not unprecedented. Within the last couple of months, his campaign said Romney is too secretive (Axelrod compared him to Nixon); it accused him of being a 'felon'; and more recently, an Obama Super PAC ad implied he was a murderer. In the case of Fast and Furious, all of those things seem to apply to the Obama administration but Romney's handlers appear too scared to go there.

The projection coming out of the Obama campaign that is being directed at Romney is palpable. The latter is being poked in the chest with it and, to this point, doesn't seem to be willing to push back. The same people Romney energized by picking Paul Ryan as his running mate are the same ones who would welcome this kind of fight and be energized further. Selecting Ryan as the second half of the ticket is shaping up to be a good move but Romney will have to fight back against these kinds of charges for at least two reasons.

1.) They're so easy to rebut
2.) Because they're so easy to rebut, he looks weak for not doing so

Audio Gem: Breitbart meets with Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn

The Daily Caller's Tucker Carlson took advantage of an offer from the most well-known, non-repentent terrorists, Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, to slap down $2500 to have dinner with them. He also brought along none other than Andrew Breitbart. In the audio exchange below, Breitbart gives his account of how it went down.

Video: Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorhn in Lebanon, call for International Government

Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn sure seem to be all over the Middle East lately. Last year, they were in Cairo with the Free Gaza Movement, attempting to organize protesters to go into Gaza. Now they're in Lebanon calling for citizens from other countries to have the right to vote for an American president. Ayers's logic here is that if the U.S. military is stationed in a country, all of the citizens in that country should be able to vote in the American presidential elections.

1979 Iran vs. 2011 Egypt: A Comparison

The overthrow of the Shah of Iran in 1979 cleared the way for an Islamic Shiite theocracy whose face was Ayatollah Khomeini. In order to defeat the Shah, the Islamists needed the help of the left. In simple terms, the leftist guerrillas that aided in the Shah's overthrow provided the quintessential example of the moniker 'Useful Idiots' because once they were no longer useful, the Islamists executed them. Despite this very recent history, the left in 2011 appears to be falling for the same thing in Egypt.

In an article (photo of relevant portion) that appeared in the Middle East Journal in 1987 entitled The New Iranian Left, Nozar Alaolmolki explains how it happened:

...the leftists were able to mobilize more than half-a-million supporters and sympathizers for the May Day rally in Tehran alone. This trend continued during the next few months until the Islamic Republic consolidated itself and then turned against the leftists. The Tudeh Party was spared initially, but by 1983 all leftist organizations, including the Tudeh, were banned and a large number of their active members executed, imprisoned, forced underground or otherwise eliminated from the scene.

Ironically, before his overthrow, the Shah fled to Egypt.

Fast forward to 2011 and the only differences between the situation between Iran and Egypt have to do with the brand of Islam behind the revolution, the name of the two countries' respective leaders, and geography. The uprising in that country is backed by the Muslim Brotherhood, which has the support of the left. Specifically, the Obama administration and the likes of Bill Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn, and Code Pink, were all instrumental in forming the Free Gaza Movement, a group allied with the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas.

For as intellectual as Ayers, Dohrn, and the rest of the elite leftwing in the United States who either support or act as apologists for Muslim Brotherhood-linked groups like CAIR like to be portrayed, they sure are stupid.

MORE VIDEOS OF CLIFF KINCAID CONFRONTING BILL AYERS AND BERNADINE DOHRN

On October 23rd, Cliff Kincaid of America's Survival attended 'Green Fest' in Washington, D.C. In attendance was none other than Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn as well as Code Pink's Media Benjamin. This event was fresh off the heels of an exhaustive report completed by Kincaid in which he explored the extremely likely possibility that Bernadine Dohrn planted the bomb that killed San Francisco police officer Brian McDonnell in February of 1970. Larry Grathwohl, whom you hear Kincaid refer to in the first video was an FBI informant at the time and testified under oath that Bill Ayers told him Dohrn planted that bomb.

I posted the first video before but here are all three including comments from Kincaid at America's Survival: Kincaid: Video One: Bernardine Dohrn, who praised the Manson Family mass murders, tells America's Survival, Inc. President Cliff Kincaid to get away when he questions her about her involvement in the bombing murder of Police Sergeant Brian V. McDonnell. "Preposterous," she says., Her husband Bill Ayers (with the ear ring) rescues her from Kincaid. Finally, a Dohrn groupie grabs Kincaid's camera and it goes black. The beginning of the video shows Dohrn talking with Medea Benjamin of Code Pink. She calls Kincaid the "pack of lies guy" because of his questions during the question-and-answer period following their remarks.



Kincaid: Video Two: Dohrn says she is not insane or a murderer. Ayers and Dohrn talk about revolutionary movements at Green Fest and denounce questions from Cliff Kincaid as a "pack of lies." The questions were about Dohrn praising the Manson Family murders and the dedication of their Praire Fire Manifesto to Sirhan Sirhan, the assassin of Robert F. Kennedy. Dohrn talks about "our past" and the "handouts" distributed by Cliff Kincaid and Trevor Loudon about their involvement in terrorism. She says they are "pawns" to get at Obama.



Kincaid: Video Three: "Green Fest" conference organizer Kevin Danaher (of Global Exchange) tells Cliff Kincaid that he won't talk on the record about why they invited unrepentant communist terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn to their event The silence is deafening. "Do you want to stay in the event?" Danaher asks, implying that Kincaid could be booted out. "Are you going to call the police on me?" Kincaid asks.

VIDEO: CLIFF KINCAID CONFRONTS BERNADINE DOHRN AND BILL AYERS

Cliff Kincaid of America's Survival was at the Green Fesitval on October 23rd and confronted both Bernadine Dohrn and Bill Ayers over the murder of San Francisco police officer Brian McDonnell. First, he confronts Dohrn as the latter is talking with Code Pink's Media Benjamin. After getting more than just a little defensive and upon hearing the name Larry Grathwohl, Bill Ayers shows up to run interference. Take note of how red he is. Kincaid and Grathwohl have the truth on their side and these two derelicts know it.

Notice what Ayers says after Kincaid asks him a fact-based question. He doesn't answer it at all; he simply calls Kincaid delusional.

ERIC HOLDER'S WEATHER UNDERGROUND PROBLEM

It's amazing to watch this Obama Justice Department rack up cases it refuses to prosecute - like the voter intimidation case involving the Black Panthers - or the bogus ones it files - like suing Arizona for enforcing its own immigration law. There is another one that has been around for 40 years that consists of mounting evidence that Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn were involved in the murder of a San Francisco police officer named Brian McDonnell on February 16, 1970.

FBI Informant Larry Grathwohl testified under oath that Bill Ayers told him that Dohrn placed the bomb in front of the Park Police station that killed McDonnell. This is not new but evidence continues to mount and there is no statue of limitations on murder. Via World Net Daily:

"My greatest fear today is that the Department of Justice (under Obama appointee Eric Holder) will protect these terrorists by blocking an attempt to bring them to justice," Grathwohl said. "Consider that President Obama held his first fundraiser at the home of Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dorhn when he was running for the state Senate in Illinois.

"Do you think there might be some resistance to placing these two people on trial for the murder of Brian McDonnell? These are President Obama's friends. He and Bill served on a board and appeared at functions together."

Grathwohl said a resolution would be for Congress to act.

"I urge the new Congress to create a committee or subcommittee to facilitate the efforts of law enforcement in bringing terrorists to justice. For example, a new House Internal Security Committee can assist in that regard. The Senate could consider reinstating a Senate Internal Security subcommittee. Such committees should also investigate the groups that represent a current danger to the internal security of this country," he said.

It was reported last year that the DOJ and local law enforcement put pressure on a group of retired San Francisco police officers to stop talking about this case but a group known as the Phoenix task force has remained undeterred in its efforts to investigate.

Of the McDonnell bombing, Grathwohl has quoted Ayers saying, "It was a success. But it's a shame when someone like Bernardine has to make all the plans, make the bomb and then place it herself. She should have to do only the planning."

In the conference remarks, Grathwohl said, "The charges have not yet been brought in this 'cold case' but I can tell you that a law enforcement entity called the Phoenix Task Force is working to solve the murder of Sergeant McDonnell as well as other police officers who died in the line of duty during that period of Weather Underground violence and terrorism."

Grathwohl continued, "Justice can still be done. And that is why I am here today. I have recently met with the lieutenant in charge of the Phoenix Task Force. … He assures me that the effort remains focused and the motivation is to gather the evidence and bring the killers to justice. I should add that the murder of Sergeant John Young by the Black Liberation Army when they attacked the Ingleside Police Station in 1971 has been solved and successfully prosecuted."

As this conservative ascendancy continues, if the Phoenix Task Force brings enough evidence to the fore one day, perhaps justice will be done. In either case, this is yet another headache for Eric Holder.

HERE are Grathwohl's prepared remarks at the October 21st conference.

VIDEOS: PROOF AYERS AND DOHRN COP KILLERS?

Cliff Kincaid, president of USA Survival has just completed an exhaustive expose into the Marxism that is running all through this country and at the highest levels of government. As part of this report, Kincaid interviewed two people about their knowledge of the Park Station Police office in San Francisco in early 1970. There is strong evidence that Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn are responsible for that bombing, which killed police officer Brian McDonnell.

Kincaid interviewed former FBI investigator Max Noel and FBI informant Larry Grathwohl, who penetrated the Weather Underground. Both testified under oath in the 1970's about what they knew regarding the bombing. Kincaid's interview with Noel and Grathwohl is in seven parts. You're urged and encouraged to check them out. The case of Brian McDonnell is still open - in fact, there's still a $100,000 reward for information leading to arrests.

VIEW for yourselves and see if you think it's possible that Ayers and Dohrn got away with killing a cop.

FINALLY! SOMEONE UNCOVERS LARRY GRATHWOHL

As I was traveling on I20 late Thursday night, I caught the audio of this episode of Glenn Beck on Sirius. As I heard him refer to Larry Grathwohl and then play the two minute video clip from 1982 of the only man to successfully infiltrate the Weather Underground, a Bruce Willis line from 'Die Hard' came to mind:

"WELCOME TO THE PARTY, PAL!"

Don't get me wrong. I'm thrilled that Glenn Beck discovered this video of Grathwohol. However, it was making the rounds on the internet before the 2008 elections. In fact, a link to the video was presented to Bill O'Reilly's producers. Though O'Reilly proceeded to interview Grathwohl in October of 2008, he never once asked Grathwohl about the shocking claims he made on the 1982 video. Instead, it was the usual questions about Bill Ayers being an unrepentant terrorist.

I have one question for Bill O'Reilly. Why didn't you uncover then what Beck is uncovering now? The photo of Grathwohl that Beck uses at the beginning of this clip is a still shot of Grathwohl's appearance on O'Reilly before the 2008 election. It was quite uneventful not because Grathwohl had nothing to offer but because O'Reilly avoided an extremely important story.

Better late than never, I guess...

NEW EVIDENCE TIES AYERS AND DOHRN TO COP KILLING

At 10:45pm on February 16th, 1970 inside the Park Police station in San Francisco, CA an officer by the name of Brian McDonnell was standing at the Teletype machine. A co-worker named Frank Rath was seated nearby. As Rath leaned back in his chair to relax, a bomb loaded with inch-long fence staples on a nearby ledge outside exploded right in front of McDonnell.

Rath escaped death by leaning backward moments before the blast but McDonnell wasn't so lucky. Staples severed his jugular and lodged in his brain. He died days later. Officer James Pera was one of the first on the scene. He was 24 years old at the time and revered McDonnell as a mentor.

No one has been arrested for the murder of McDonnell. Over the years, two groups have been suspected - the Weather Underground and the Black Liberation Army, an offshoot of the Black Panthers.

On September 16th, AN ARTICLE by Peter Jamison was published in San Francisco Weekly that has some astonishingly new revelations from this nearly 40 year-old case.

speaking publicly for the first time about the investigation, former FBI agents have told SF Weekly the basis for their belief that the Weather Underground was behind McDonnell's murder. The agents have revealed that two credible eyewitnesses — both former left-wing radicals tied to the Weathermen — gave detailed statements to investigators in the 1970s alleging that Dohrn and Howard Machtinger, another member of the group, were personally involved in organizing the deadly attack. Both witnesses claimed to have participated in meetings where the bombing was planned, and one confessed to having cased the police station for the Weathermen prior to the explosion.

Larry Grathwohl successfully infiltrated the Weather Underground for the FBI and testified under oath in the 1970's that Bill Ayers told him that Bernadine Dohrn was responsible for the Park Police station bombing. Grathwohl's account was that Ayers was attempting to demonstrate how a woman was doing more than the rest of the male members of the group.

Grathwohl vindicated?
Based on information uncovered by Willie Reagan, a retired FBI agent who has been working on a task force that is investigating the bombing, it appears that the credibility of Grathwohl's story has been significantly bolstered. Two witnesses, whose stories Reagan came across while going through documents provide that additional credibility. Matthew Landy Steen, who was a writer for an underground newspaper and Karen Latimer, a former Weather Underground member who was willing to testify in return for immunity.

Steen told agents he had attended a Bay Area meeting in January 1970 at which half a dozen Weather Underground activists discussed their plans to plant a bomb at Park Police Station. Among those Steen placed at the meeting were Dohrn, the Weather Underground's charismatic leader; and Machtinger, who investigators believed to be one of the group's principal bomb technicians.

Also in the case file were multiple forms from interviews with a former Weather Underground member named Karen Latimer. In the mid-1970s, years after Steen spoke to the FBI, Latimer came forward to say that she had attended a separate planning session for the Park Station attack with Dohrn and Machtinger in the winter of 1970.

Jamison reports that prosecutors were very close to filing charges based solely on Latimer's testimony.

Latimer claimed to have personally cased the station, and could describe the package that had held the explosive device before it had gone off. "It was just too detailed," the investigator familiar with the case said. "It was A to Z without leaving out L and M. I was convinced."

I will be delving into this story much further on my September 20th program. In particular, I'll be taking a look at the role of current Attorney General Eric Holder. When you consider all of the things he's done / not done in light of these findings, perhaps some hard questions need to be asked relative to his motivations.

Be sure to read the ENTIRE ARTICLE by Jamison. Calling it eye-opening is an understatement.

On Friday, September 18th, I had the opportunity to interview both Larry Grathwohl and James Pera on these new findings. You can listen to the interview by CLICKING HERE (starts at approximately the 18:15 mark).

Lastly, if Grathwohl's testimony is vindicated, so is his credibility. If his credibility is vindicated, shouldn't more people view this clip of him from 1982 in which he discusses the intentions of the Weather Underground based on his first hand accounts from their meetings?
