Agree totally. There should have been a hell of a lot more thought given to who was let in in the first place. It does seem a tad unfair, however, to kick people out at this stage.

There is a lot of stuff in here so I am going to go slower to make sure I touch on what I can. .
Bill Ayers - Everyone paying attention has heard his name by now even if you weren't alive during the time the controversy focuses on. Of the bombings he is responsible for he is quoted as saying as he doesn't regret it and feels he didn't do enough. He is also quoted as saying that quote is distorted.
He has also stated in interviews that he does not consider the Weather Underground members to be terrorists. Unfortunately, the last I checked the definition of the word is the use or threat of violence to persuade or coerce the government.
It doesn't matter what you want to believe about how much he and Barack Obama are involved. Whether it's a blind eye or you think Obama is just as responsible (He was 7? 8?)
You are wrong, however. Obama would not be disqualified from the FBI or CIA. Much in the way you sitting in a bar and listening to the people next to you plotting to kill someone, that you would not be guilty of anything.
I understand what the news says, and it's inevitable that people are going to listen to it without checking facts.
Then we agree to disagree. I would first submit that his pattern of past associations would disqualify him and he would never see an interview. Supposed that he was granted an interview ...
In my opinion, based on how I have observed Obama to either change his association based on the most recent uncovered truth, Obama would (a) never pass, or, (b) never sit for the polygraph if he had prior knowledge that it would go past the questionnaire and into the background check about his past associations.

Do you really think our CIA is so imcompetent that they would let a TERRORIST run for PRESIDENT? Really? Because that is exactly what you are saying. Even though the CIA is protecting him. Even though McCain himself has admitted that Obama is a good christian family man. Even though the majority of the American people and the rest of the people in the world want him to be the next president. Even though he graduated from Harvard Law School and turned down a high paying wall street job to work as a community organizer in Chicago helping poor people. Even though he has a distinguished record in the state senate and the senate. But you know better. In your almighty esteemed professional opinion Obama is *really* a terrorist. The CIA doesn't know what they are talking about. Right?
dk, your obsession with what Obama *might* be hiding from not releasing this that or the other thing would be hilarious if it weren't so tragic. Do you really think there is something horrible in his Harvard Law School records? Like what? He was the head of the Harvard Law Review, do you think they give that honor to problem students? We already know that McCain graduated almost at the bottom of his class, but that doesn't bother you.
You obsess over Obama's associations with Wright, but Sarah Palin's association with witch doctors and extreme pentacostal religion and the Wasilla Assembly of God doesn't concern you. You think there is something terribly wrong with Obama's association with Bill Ayres, but you don't care that McCain is associated with PNAC and has hired people that are arguably more anti-American than Ayres is.
Give me a break.
Yes. As far as I can tell, McCain has been transparent when questioned on these topics, if at a minimum, far more transparent than Obama has been.
From this perspective, at least I know which devil I will vote to put into office - not knowing is scarier in my opinion. I am sure you realize that it is rumored that Obama was registered as a foreign student at Harvard. I am also sure you know that it is rumored there are questions about how his education was paid for and by who.
I mean, c'mon, you have articles like this going around out there ...

All Obama has to do is be a little more transparent, release his records to put the matters at rest. Why doesn't he? Is it because the rumors are true? What has he to hide that he can't share? What will he hide once he is in office?

I thought he was brainwashed by the communists?

Well .. I will let you choose ...
1) That is what you get for thinking when you don't do it every often.
2) That is what you get for letting the government do you thinking for you when you sign your rights over to them.

dk, the fact that your false assertions are so easily disproved tells me that you don't care about the truth. But on the off chance that you just aren't aware of the truth, here you go:
Obama is a NATURAL BORN U.S. citizen: http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/birthcertificate.asp
Obama's association with Bill Ayres would NOT disqualify him from getting a security clearance: http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/security.asp
Obama's college funding did NOT come from questionable sources: http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/money.asp
Is there anything else you would like me to clear up for you?

Why did Obama go to Hawaii ???
Would it be to shut his grandmother up ???
She has been openly saying Hussein Obama was born in Kenya......... And that would mean he can not be President..
Hussein still has not produced a valid Birth Certificate
What is Obama hiding? Why the lawyers? Why the courts?
If Obama is eligible to occupy the Office of the President of the United States of America, why doesn't he simply present the vault copy of his birth certificate to prove it and end all the speculation.

He DID provide his birth certificate and it DOES say he was born in Hawaii.
Of course the Dem's rallies are always bigger than the Repubs - someone has to work.
Vote your Manchurian candidate. I want you to yell the loudest when you have traded all of your freedoms away, deal?

How come he would let Snopes have access to it, but not show up in a legal court and introduce it there?
It just doesn't make sense and everything smells fishy, like a huge bait and switch.

This implies that provided you are born a US citizen and have lived in the US for 14 years and are over 35 then you are eligible to be President. Barack Obama meets these conditions so what are you making a mountain out of a molehill for?

Most blue-collar jobs are shift-work and do not pay attention to what day it is. Every blue-collar job I worked at, it didn't matter what day/time it was if my shift was going.
The freedoms you trade off when you allow the government to take care of you. I am sure you realize Pelosi's agenda and where this country will go. A rookie President is either going to push/allow the fundamental Republic to be tore down and federal power will be increased.

EDIT1: Oh yeah, I could produce a document that looks like that. I want an accredited source to authenticate it.
EDIT2: I understand that our resources are limited because we are just citizens without access to certain priviledges. It just doesn't pass the smell test for me if the DNC didn't request a certified accounting of the birth but allowed Snopes? Doesn't fully compute for me. If they wanted the issue put to rest - they could have it done quite easily, but they haven't (and won't) and it doesn't make sense why.
