    Mr. Ayers: Caught your cameo on “Sean Hannity” last night! 😉

    Hello Mr. Ayers,
    Didn’t you also write “Chang Chih-tung and Educational Reform in China,” (Harvard University Press, 1971) ?. I see no mention of this work in your bibliography. Thanks much for responding.
    I’m a bookseller with a copy & want to confirm its authorship.
    Best,
    Gary

    I think you should do some interviews and show people who you are now. Obviously if you are a professor, you are not terrorist. You should be on Oprah!

    Here is a decent article defending Bill Ayers, and more broadly what these attacks against him really are about.

    Dear People,

    Several comments on this thread suggest Mr. Ayers’ name is being dragged through the mud. You have expressed sorrow for this man. Exactly who’s fault is it? McCain? the Media? His actions and associations are the reason his poor name is being mentioned in this scandal. He created it himself. I am honestly trying to understand how anyone can have one bit of compassion for this man unless you too are an unrepetant terrorist. You sympathizers are either followers of terrorism or just morons. I pray for the latter. Out.

    Fortunately after reading ‘Fugitive Days’ I won’t be reading any more of your books.
    I find it interesting though, that so many people buy into this Marxist inspired education reform (or should I say re-education).

    The only hope for the Democratic Republic is that a majority of citizens will eventually see through the soft-whispered lies of Marxism. Hopefully before it is too late.

    So hope for a great sea-change
    on the far side of revenge.
    Believe that a further shore
    is reachable from here.

    That’s for those full of anger and hate.

    Bill…go fuck yourself you POS.

    You are a pathetic waste of a human life.

    You should have never been let off the hook for your subversive activities. It is shocking that you never served a single day in jail. Your relationship with Obama IS important, but the liberal media machine is earning their pay by squashing any and all criticisms of the messiah.

    I believe McCain can pull off an election day surprise — surely some voters will change their mind in the booth and choose not to elect the most inexperienced and liberal (socialist) candidate in history.

    The Feds should reopen the case against you and throw you in jail where you belong.
