The state chairman of the Virginia Republican Party, Jeff Frederick, told a group of Virginia volunteers that Barack Obama and Osama bin Laden "both have friends who bombed the Pentagon, that is scary."
That is, of course, a bald-faced lie, and a transparent attempt to once again call Obama a terrorist.
From the Washington Post:
Yesterday, Frederick said he stood by the comparison, even though bin Laden planned the Sept. 11, 2001, attack on the Pentagon that killed 184 people and Obama was a child and hadn't met Ayers when the Weather Underground planted a bomb at the Pentagon in 1972. No one was hurt in that blast, in which a bomb exploded in a restroom and caused flooding and damage to computer tapes containing classified information.
Ayers did not participate at the Pentagon in the bombing but admitted to involvement in other blasts.
And what of John McCain? How did he respond to this baseless smear, Mr. I'm-Going-To-Run-A-Respectful-Campaign John McCain?
He refused to condemn the remarks.
The video of McCain once again taking the low, hateful road:
John McCain looks smaller and smaller as his campaign sputters to its end. He has no economic plan, so this is all he has left.
