Not to mention the fact that Ayres was put on that board by the Annenburgs who were Republicans and had ties to Ronald Reagan. Does that make Ronald Reagan and the Annenburgs also terrorists by association? There were other Republicans on that board with Obama and Ayres. Does that make those Republicans also terrorists by association?

How about all of the people who are associated with Ayres at the university where he teaches (some of whom are Republicans)? Are they also terrorists by association?

This "guilt by association" thing is a very slippery slope, as they learned during the time of Joe McCarthy.
