The Washington Post has risen to defend Bill Ayers and Barack Obama, claiming “Obama and Ayers to have had only a casual association” in response to Sarah Palin pointing out that Obama is connected to Bill Ayers.

Of course Sen. Obama is associated with Bill Ayers; there is a library full of information proving the connections. At least 50 stories have been published in the Chicago Daily Observer detailining the connection, as well as some well documented research by the National Review. It boggles the mind why a writer at the Washington Post could claim otherwise.

Axelrod and Obama did not even need to bring their thug campaign to squash the news this time. The Washington Post did that for them.
