Obama blows up on Ayers question

Stop the ACLU:

Update: Jonah Goldberg is on the same page.

I don’t know what Coburn said exactly. But I’m pretty sure Coburn didn’t bomb any abortion clinics.

I can’t believe what I just heard. (I’m on the Left Coast, so forgive my delayed outrage) Video here.

Just minutes ago, to his credit, George Stephanopoulos, during the Democrat debate on ABC raised the issue of Obama’s associations with an unapologetic terrorist. Of course, Obama just thinks of said terrorist as a neighbor and an English professor.

Anyway, after hemming and hawing (I’m getting pretty sick of this stuttering stiff being described as “eloquent” and “articulate”) about how it is illegitimate to even bring up the topic of his decade-long relationship with another America-hating scoundrel, William Ayers, what does he do?

That’s right…just like his poor little grandma is no different than Jeremiah Wright (who Obama said tonight is patriotic because he served 40 years ago in the Marine Corps…note to Obamanable…not everyone who served at one time loves his country, so your reference to his service is meaningless), the honorable Senator Tom Coburn is no different from unrepentant Weather Underground terrorist William Ayers.

...

The Washington Times coverage also noted the Ayers question finally being asked. I happened to catch a Sean Hannity interview with George Stephanopoulos the day before the debate and Hannity put the question to Stephanopoulos and to his credit he said he was taking notes so he could ask the question during the debate.

Obama's reaction shows just how potent the question was. I am sure it is one that he hopes will go away, but it is liable to fester like the Wright questions and the questions about his San Francisco fund raising speech.

Hat tip Larwyn.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
