Obama Ad Makes Light of His Relationship With Domestic Terrorist William Ayers

"Strangely timed Obama response ad on William Ayers" from Political Radar reports that Barack Obama has released an ad essentially making light of his relationship with Weatherman William Ayers who was unrepentent over his involvement with the bombing of the Capitol and Pentagon.  While Obama condemned those actions, he called Ayers "respectable" and "mainstream" and had a continued relationship with Ayers who launched Obama's poiltical career with his first fundraiser.

The release of the ad, first reported on Time.com's "The Page", could have the unintended consequence of reminding voters that Obama has in the past been friendly with William Ayers, a Chicago law professor who to this day remains unrepentant about his work with the violent Weather Underground group in the 1960s and 70s.
