Figures. Media Matters Jumps In to Defend Obama's "Close Family Friend's" Ties to Terror-Linked Gaza Flotilla
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, June 1, 2010, 5:15 AM
Day turns into night… Winter turns to spring… Media Matters defends Obama’s close family friends’ links to the terror-linked Gaza Flotilla.
Some things are as predictable as the morning sun.
Media Matters to the terror-linked radical’s rescue–
Yesterday, World Net Dailyreported on Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn’s close association with the terror-linked Gaza Flotilla.
It didn’t take long for Media Matters rush in to the rescue:
Within hours of news reports of a deadly incident involving the Israeli army and a flotilla bound for Gaza, Aaron Klein and Jim Hoft found a way to blame Obama for the controversial international incident: yelling “Bill Ayers.”
…In essence, in the face of an international tragedy, Klein — trumpeted by Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft — turned to weak and discredited “connections” to smear Obama as “pals” with the “violent” backers of the Gaza flotilla.
Media Matters doesn’t have a problem with the fact that Ayers and Dohrn are associated with the Gaza Flotilla. Media Matters doesn’t refute the fact that the Gaza Flotilla is linked to terror. Media Matters is upset because Bill Ayers is linked to Barack Obama? What a crock. Ayers himself describes Michelle and Barack as close family friends. They’ve been close friends and associates for decades.
Likewise, Media Matters does not refute that Code Pink co-founder Jodie Evans is a top activist with the Gaza flotilla group that attacked the IDF this past weekend.
Media Matters is upset that Jodie Evans is linked to Barack Obama even though the Code Pink radical was one of Obama’s top bundlers during the 2008 campaign.
Nice try, M&M.
And, just think… The hacks at Media Matters actually get paid to publish this trash!

The has-been terrorist Bill Ayers is back. All old is new again. Thanks to his good friend Barack Obama.

“They’ve been close friends and associates for decades.”
More like teacher and disciple, let alone ghost-writer and fraud.

One, and possibly two or more, boats will be trying again within a few days.
Israel has a few days to formulate a better plan.
BackwardsBoy commented:
When was the last time we had a President who had such a cozy relationship with a terror organizations’ backers? Come to think of it, when was the last time a President launched his political career in the living room of a domestic terrorist?
Baxter Greene commented:
Watching Media Matters attempt to deny the facts and reality that are right there for all to see is right in line with watching the UN and it’s cohorts deny that Israel was attacked by jihadist while they were in the process of trying to prevent them from penetrating Israel’s blockade.
Facts don’t matter to liberals…it’s all about the narrative.

Better Plan: Man the torpedoes!
Joanne commented:
Who is the common denominator – Barack Hussein Obama – go figure. Hah!
Robert commented:
Perhaps Israel could issue a statement today or tomorrow on the additional vessels coming, rather than waiting until events force another public relations disaster.

I’m just glad we are in a time where actual video of these events can display the truth, despite the media spin. It should be interesting to get the public’s reaction when they can see what really happened.
Follow the law commented:
Obama hates Arizona.
Obama hates Louisiana.
Obama loves/hates BP.
Obama loves/hates Goldman Sachs.
Obama hates Tea-”partiers” (I won’t use his term for American families that protest spending)
Obama hates….Israel?
Now, how do you all define a hater?
(this is only a partial “Obama hates” list)
Just to be fair, Obama loves cheeseburgers with fries and onion rings, golfing, and big lavish parties. Just to be fair.
Militant Conservative commented:
Obama is going to start a war. Intentionally, chaos is his way of changing America.

Media Matters??
Not when they don’t.
Nothing they have to say or opine matters to real people.

..connecting the Communist dots..
…’Yesterday’s interception by Israeli commandoes of the flotilla sent by the Free Gaza Movement has spurred the crazies into action. In Hong Kong, for example, regional “human rights” organizations demonstrated and leaders “called for the Israeli government to be held accountable for their actions by an impartial, international criminal tribunal,” the Sri Lankan Guardian reported.
Not mentioned in the article, but clearly visible in the banner held by demonstrators above, is the International Migrants Alliance:’

It’s more like an allowance, isn’t it? George Soros is Daddy. I wouldn’t be surprised if the halfwits that write for MM don’t mow his lawn and clean his homes. They have to be wondering if the son is going to carry on Daddy’s mischief when George goes buh-bye.

Note to IDF: Leave the paintball guns at home this time.
Sandy commented:
Robert — You’re right Israel should issue a statement saying these leftists are going to try to push more vessels through. But its been common knowledge that this flotilla was stopped time and time again over the last couple of months by Israel but that’s not the story the media wants to tell. Its big bad Israel against the poor Palestinians.
The fact is the only purpose the Pals serve to the rest of the Middle East is they are the so-called Community Organizers. Also, they are not going hungry — they have been fed by the UN for the last 50 years.
It would be nice if Egypt would stand with Israel as they share a border and they do not want this either. But the fact is that Israel stands alone. If the Arabs didn’t have Israel to kick around they would destroy each other.

That is not the Bill Ayers that I knew.

Jim, the fact that they feel compelled to go after you is a testiment to the effectiveness of your site and the work you are doing. Rush always calls it “living rent free in their heads”…if they hate what you’re doing, that means keep up the good work!

Oh, goody!
If Media Matters has rushed to poo-poo the AYers-Evans-Obama-flotilla, add former US ambassador Ed Peck – HULLOOO State Department? Hillary? You didn’t KNOW about a US ambassador being part of this floating crap? Or you DID and approved? THEN THEN, it has legs!
DEMAND CONGRESSIONAL HEARINGS! WHAT did Obama know and WHEN did he know it?
No Democrats want to try? VOTE THEM ALL OUT ASAP starting NOVEMBER.
