FACTS:

Obama met bomber Bill Ayers and his wife when he was 34 years old in Ayers' living room-- not at 8 years old.

Bomber Bill Ayers bombed the Pentagon in 1972 when Obama was 11 years old, not 8 years old.

Dr. Quentin Young, a prominent Chicago physician and advocate for single-payer health care, describes Obama and Ayers as “friends.”

Bill Ayers and his wife, Dohrn disappeared in 1970, after a bomb — designed to kill army officers in New Jersey — accidentally destroyed a Greenwich Village townhouse, and turned themselves into authorities in 1980, which made national news for days. Obama graduated with a B.A. from Columbia three years later majoring in political science. Ayers and his wife Dohrn were never prosecuted for their involvement with the 25 bombings the Weather Underground claimed; charges were dropped because of improper FBI surveillance. Once again made national news due to the legal wrangling by the Ayers.

Dohrn, however, was jailed for less than a year for refusing to testify before a grand jury investigating other Weather Underground members’ robbery of a Brinks truck, in which a guard and two New York State Troopers were murdered, in 1981. This made national news as well.

Obama and Ayers had meetings of Chicago Annenberg Challenge, an educational initiative that Ayers started and that Obama was chairman in the 1990s.
Obama first said Ayers was only a neighbor in his neighborhood. Later he said he didn't know of Ayers back ground. Since then he only claims McCain is bring up Ayers to attack his campaign without explaining his true relationship to Ayers.
