The relevance of Ayers

Michael Barone via Ed Morrissey:

...

  • Obama stresses his commonality with the American people. Do most people feel comfortable working closely with unrepentant domestic terrorists who still want to overthrow the capitalist system in America?
  • Obama presses educational issues as part of his campaign. He spent years working with Ayers on the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, which pushed efforts to create primary educational organizations that would create political activists for the Left - and which largely failed in any of its intended purposes.
  • Obama has lied and obfuscated about his relationship with Ayers. Clearly, Ayers was not just “some guy in the neighborhood”, but a political adviser at least on educational issues who provided a key launch for Obama’s political career.
...
The point on education is one that Obama particularly needs to be quizzed on. Will he be pushing the same kind of education "reform" on the rest of the country and he and Ayers were pushing on Chicago? I think Sarah Palin can continue to get inside Obama's OODA loop on this subject by asking that question. It will force the media to ask Obama's campaign.

You can get some idea of Ayers education objectives from Confederate Yankee.

Here is the excerpt from Greta's show:

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.
