The Bill Ayers Blog

Apparently Bill Ayers has a blog. It appears legitimate, although the real Bill Ayers has a few additional items on his CV, beyond the fact that he's a university professor.

Here's a few things that are missing:
  1. Co-founded the Weather Underground terrorist group in 1969.
  2. Planted numerous bombs, including NYPD headquarters.
  3. Planned bombings of Pentagon and US Capitol.
  4. A girlfriend, Diana Oughton, was killed when the bomb that she and two others were working on for use in an attack on Fort Dix exploded in Greenwich Village in 1970.
  5. Associates of Ayers later carried out the Brinks armored car heist. Those terrorists, who had hoped to use the money stolen to fund their revolution, killed two policemen and a security guard.
  6. Married to fellow Weather Underground terrorist Bernadine Dohrn.
UPDATE:
Come to think of it, I figure that the AP, New York Times, and other outlets will come across this blog in the course of their research, note the absence of any mention of Ayers terror ties, and presume that the case is closed.
