The Coverup

p_68m01vl00.jpg

Stanley Kurtz unleashes a self-described “October surprise”:

It took me a while to put the pieces together, but I think I’ve figured out what’s had the Obama camp so worried about the Chicago Annenberg Challenge records. It goes way beyond Bill Ayers. In fact, it connects the dots between Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, and Obama’s own early radicalism. I lay out the details today in my new piece, “Wright 101.” The gist of what I found is that, from his position as board chair at the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, Barack Obama was funneling hundreds of thousands of dollars to education programs built around the same extremist anti-American ideology preached by Jeremiah Wright. As I argue in today’s piece, this puts the Wright issue back in play in this campaign.”

Specifically, the Chicago Annenberg Challenge on whose board Obama served gave a grant to an outfit called the Coalition for Improved Education in [Chicago’s] South Shore (CIESS). CIESS was “linked to a network of schools within the Chicago public system” called the “South Shore African Village Collaborative.” According to Kurtz, this network which was linked to an organization which got a grant from a group on whose board Obama served, “was very much a part of the Afrocentric ‘rites of passage movement’” and also at time did events featuring guys named Jacob Carruthers and Asa Hilliard. These two, in turn, seem to have held fringy opinions somewhat similar to some of Jeremiah Wright’s fringy opinions. Ergo, according to Kurtz, Wright is back on the table.

I’d say McCain’s in luck with this one! Obama’s doomed!

Seriously, though, is there anyone who could withstand this kind of guilt-by-association. Obama was on the board of an outfit that gave a grant to an outfit that was linked to another outfit that organized an event where some dude spoke, and thus Obama is responsible for the dude? Really? I spoke at the Heritage Foundation once. Does that make Heritage’s board members responsible for stuff on my blog? It doesn’t make any sense.

UPDATE: I should make clear that I don’t know anything about Jacob Carruthers or Asa Hilliard other than that, according to Kurtz (who’s not a reliable source), they had fringey ideas. I’m told by a colleague that Hilliard, at least, was no fringe figure at all.

    Of course McCain’s transition chief was a lobbyist for Saddam Hussein. Why do they even want to play the guilt by association game?

    I think there are serious questions about the judgment of someone who’s paling around with conservative ideologues.

    There are fascinating arguments indicating that Grover Norquist may have ghost written Heads in the Sand. But will the MSM look into it? No!

    … and that dude was in a movie with Kevin Bacon!

    No. But it does make you personally responsible, and culpable, for every position that the Heritage Foundation has taken over the last twenty, thirty years. Can’t you see that?

  5. mark f Says:

    Hugh Hewitt, I’m sure, will be adding Jacob Carruthers to the list of previously anonymous but ominous nonentities that we should be gravely concerned about.

    It would be more straightforward to say that Obama was working for Annenberg, Annenberg was friends with Reagan, and Reagan illegally traded arms for hostages and illegally funded the Contras.

    What do you think the chances are that Reagan ghost wrote Dreams from my Father?

    Kurtz needs a nap. Wright’s beliefs may or may not be a legitimate issue, but there’s no reason why any of this nonsense should play a role, since Obama *really was* palling around with Wright for years.

    Whatta clown.

    Mr. Colonel Kurtz proves without a doubt that Obama is in fact the fifth beatle and the man who shot JFK. I await the reunion concert on the white house grassy knoll, film by O. Stone, of course.

  17. Seitz Says:

    Why does John McCain support the murder of single mothers within our own borders via time-travelling cyborgs?

    There are all sorts of things wrong with this. First of all, she wasn’t a mother yet when the cyborg tried to kill her (and admittedly, killed several innocents in the process). In addition, need I remind you that said time-traveling cyborg not only repented for that attempted murder, but actually came back specifically to protect that single mother AND her child from other time-traveling cyborgs? Just like democRAT to ignore pertinent facts.

    That’s the strange part. Why the elaborate connect-the-dots? Wright’s views didn’t matter when Obama was in Wright’s church every Sunday. I think they’re getting flummoxed by their own 3 Card Monty.

    It sounds more like their desperate to see how few. Even the clowns think they’re full of shit.

  22. Rob Mac Says:

    Seitz is wrong. The cyborg that tried to kill Sarah Connor died unrepentant. The cyborg that came back to help her was a different cyborg of the same model. To quote Reagan, facts are stupid things.

  23. CParis Says:

    Didn’t Mrs Annenberg donate a bunch of money to the McCain campaign? Why is John McCain taking money from a terrorist sympathizer?

  24. fostert Says:

    Here’s the example I use. I have a friend who is a close friend of Gen Musharraf. Therefore, I am responsible for the turmoil in Pakistan. With only two degrees of separation! And it gets even worse. Musharraf is friends with Bush, so I am also responsible for everything that’s gone wrong in America, too.

  25. stefan Says:

    Finally I know who’s doing all that good Heritage work. And that leads (indirectly) to Kurtz himself. Keep up the good work MY. That’s why it’s called a liberal front organization.

    Does anyone remember who Annenberg was? Owner of T.V. Guide. Nixon’s ambassador to Great Britain. What does it say about Obama that he was associated with an organization funded by that guy?

  27. Tyro Says:

    First of all, she wasn’t a mother yet when the cyborg tried to kill her

    You’re forgetting that life begins at conception and that there were a good 30-45 minutes of the movie during which Sarah Connor was, in fact, an expectant mother while the cyborg was trying to kill her.

  28. Njorl Says:

    There are all sorts of things wrong with this. First of all, she wasn’t a mother yet when the cyborg tried to kill her …

    Typical left-wing anti-zygote developmentalism. She was pregnant by the end of the movie, therefore, in the eyes of God, a mother.

  29. OhioBoy Says:

    MY is leaving out a crucial portion of Stanley Kurtz’s case. The case should be summarized as follows:

    Obama was on the board of an outfit that gave a grant to an outfit that was linked to another outfit that organized an event where some dude spoke, many of the people involved in this network had dark skin like Obama, and thus Obama is responsible for the dude.

    See? It’s really pretty straightforward.

  31. Donald A. Coffin Says:

    I have, by the way, a theory about Bill Ayres. He’s an undercover FBI agent, tasked, back in the 1969s, with undermining and, ultimately, destroying the radical left in the US. By advocating (and, subsequently, refusing to condemn) politically-motivated violence, he brought the left into disrepute. His reward? A cushy, prestigous position in a major university. What could be clearer or more obvious?

  32. toby Says:

    And McCain is going to lay this on Obama tomorrow night? We’re screwed! Obama should just concede the election right now.

  33. MK Says:

    Being from Chicago and traveling the circles that Kurtz is obsessed about… I find all of this HILARIOUS. Jacog Carruthers who passed away not long ago founded the Center for Inner City Studies at Northeastern Illinois University. I fact he did promote Afrocentric education. This is not controversial. He believed that young Black children could bridge the achievement gap if they were instructed about this history of Africa. He is not crazy RADICAL. I taught at Northeaster Illinois for years and worked as an adjunct at the center for Inner City Studies. This is an EPIC FAIL…

  34. Bruce Moomaw Says:

    In his article “Wright 101″, Kurtz links to an earlier article of his (”No Liberation”: http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=NDkyZTNiZDdkMTNiNzViZTYxNDU0MTY4MzMzMzNmZDU= ), which quotes Obama revealing himself to the “Chicago Reader” in 1995 as supposedly being a Wright-type “radical”, but in which Kurtz casually adds: “True, when discussing Louis Farrakhan with [interviewer] De Zutter, Obama makes a point of repudiating anti-white, anti-Semitic, and anti-Asian sermons.”

    His “radicalism” in Kurtz’s articles seems to consist entirely of believing that black churches should become more politically activist. Indeed, in that Chicago Reader article that Kurtz quotes ( http://www.chicagoreader.com/features/stories/archive/barackobama/ ), we find: “Obama thinks elected officials could do much to overcome the political paralysis of the nation’s black communities. He thinks they could lead their communities out of twin culs-de-sac: the unrealistic politics of integrationist assimilation — which helps a few upwardly mobile blacks to ‘move up, get rich, and move out’ — and the equally impractical politics of black rage and black nationalism — which exhorts but does not organize ordinary folks or create realistic agendas for change.

    The article then quotes Obama: “It’s time for politicians and other leaders to take the next step and to see voters, residents, or citizens as producers of this change. The thrust of our organizing must be on how to make them productive, how to make them employable, how to build our human capital, how to create businesses, institutions, banks, safe public spaces — the whole agenda of creating productive communities. That is where our future lies.

    “The right wing talks about this but they keep appealing to that old individualistic bootstrap myth: get a job, get rich, and get out. Instead of investing in our neighborhoods, that’s what has always happened. Our goal must be to help people get a sense of building something larger…

    “Any African-Americans who are only talking about racism as a barrier to our success are seriously misled if they don’t also come to grips with the larger economic forces that are creating economic insecurity for all workers — whites, Latinos, and Asians. We must deal with the forces that are depressing wages, lopping off people’s benefits right and left, and creating an earnings gap between CEOs and the lowest-paid worker that has risen in the last 20 years from a ratio of 10 to 1 to one of better than 100 to 1…

    “Historically, African-Americans have turned inward and towards black nationalism whenever they have a sense, as we do now, that the mainstream has rebuffed us, and that white Americans couldn’t care less about the profound problems African-Americans are facing.

    “But cursing out white folks is not going to get the job done. Anti-Semitic and anti-Asian statements are not going to lift us up. We’ve got some hard nuts-and-bolts organizing and planning to do. We’ve got communities to build.”

    This is a black racist or a dangerous radical?

    It doesn’t make any sense.

    It makes perfect sense to wingnuts, who see more conspiracies that Jim Garrison.

    Yeah, plus the concept of educational pedagogy and classroom practice in the U.S. being largely euro-centric is hardly anything new.

    Please DO NOT FORGET that Bill Ayers is the son of the CEO of Commonwealth Edison, that radical group that empowered the entire Democratic Machine of Chicago, the Chicago Black Panther Party, Fred Hampton, Mayor Daley (1 and 2), Al Capone, the Chicago Cubs AND the Chicago White Sox, the Chicago Seven and the band, Chicago (except when unplugged), Michael Jordon, Mike Ditka and Jim McMahon, Jesse Jackson etc. The Ayers family is at the center of the town at the center of the country and hence, at the center of all world history. The MSM cannot shine a light on this, because the Conspirators OWN the LIGHTS.

    Don’t light a candle — curse the darkness.

  44. 24AheadDotCom Says:

    Let me bottom line this for BHO/DNC apologists like MattY: BHO gave money to a radical group. That contradicts the line (from “fact checkers”) that the CAC was only involved in “mainstream” initiatives.

    Once again, the DNC needs to decide whether they want all this to come out before or after the election. In either case, millions of people are going to come to the conclusion that the DNC perpetrated a fraud on the American public. When will the damage be less severe, now or later? Perhaps MattY could have a chat with someone there.

  45. SLC Says:

    There is also the association of Senator McCain and his campaign adviser Charles Black with the Reverend Sun Yun Moon of the Unification Church who makes Reverend Wright look like a sober mainstream pastor.

  47. plainbrown1 Says:

    Back when I was a young lad in the U.S. Navy (circa 1964) there was a guy in our barracks who had a locker full of right wing books and literature. One in particular stuck in my mind, it was titled “The Plot to Murder Marilyn Monroe”. It featured in the centerfold a picture of a large crowd. Circled in one corner was a figure labeled “Marilyn Monroe” and across the page, separated by a several thousand or so people, was a figure labeled “murderer”. The argument was that the picture proved the plot. I never understood how that was supposed to prove the plot since MM didn’t die until a coupe years after that picture was taken, but it was enough for this guy.

    I get the same feeling about the McCain campaign… if they can mention two things in the same breath, they feel they have made the connection. Proof to them is in the mind of the beholder.

    And this passes for “conservative leadership!” Jeez…

    In your fever dreams maybe.
    Obama will be judged (if elected) by how well he does as president. No one will give a hot damn if he once upon a time knew people who knew people who were evil– or even if he knew evil people directly–most of us do run into some real creeps in life, after all.
    When I 19 I worked at a bar where, among others, there was an employee who was an ex-drug dealer, and even an ex-murderer (OK, manslaughterer– he had blown away is wife in a fit of jealous rage). I actually got to know the ex-dealer, I went to parties that he and his fiance hosted, attended their wedding, kept up for some years with them until I lost touch with them at the beginning of this decade.
    There, by your logic I am forever barred from elective office because of my past associations.

  52. burritoboy Says:

    “Seitz is wrong. The cyborg that tried to kill Sarah Connor died unrepentant. The cyborg that came back to help her was a different cyborg of the same model.”

    This is inaccurate as well – cyborgs don’t die, because they aren’t alive. Thus, they aren’t killed, but destroyed. Second, a cyborg isn’t repentant or unrepentant – it merely carries out it’s programming. You need to have some sort of independent moral consciousness – which cyborgs don’t have – to have the possibility of repentance.

    That also means that cyborgs don’t “help” Sarah Connor, any more than a hammer “helps” Sarah Connor drive a nail into the corpse of this dead discussion. Rather, it’s really her son in the future sending back various tools (which are admittedly cyborgs in this instance) that actually helps her.

  53. Rob Mac Says:

    Good points, burritoboy, but you’re missing the larger existential question asked and mostly answered by the second movie–what is consciousness? What is conscience? Are these distinctly human traits or does a cyborg programmed to mimic these traits possess them as much as any human? Does not the terminator say, as he is lowered into the vat of molten lava, “Now I know why it is you cry.”

    Thus sayeth Schwartzenegger.

  54. StJoe Says:

    burritoboy conveniently glosses over the obvious tensions underlying cyborg movies such as Blade Runner and those Johnny Five flics wherein the line between sentience and programming is blurred and even vaporized.

    Meanwhile, this Kurtz stuff just makes me like Obama even more. The quotes from the articles Bruce Moomaw cites for us evidence an astounding thoughtfulness on the part of Sen. Obama. I can’t believe we might have a president with such well-developed views about race, community development, and social change.

  58. ronathan richardson Says:

    As a liberal, I’m quite concerned about Obama’s connections with the Annenberg challenge.

    Of course, not because of Ayers or whatever Chicago boogieman the GOP has in their sights today, but because Obama had control over disbursing $50 million in education grants, and (according to the wikipedia page) the Annenberg challenge’s own internal study showed that there was no improvement in any school that got grant money, versus ones that didn’t. I just hope he learned something from it.

  59. Ohmy Says:

    Here’s how Obama should answer if McCain brings up Ayers:

    The Republicans have been very poor at governing but they’re excellent at negative campaigns. Every election year, they tear the opponent down, George Bush did. But the result of their governance is disastrous: $10 trillion in debt. We’re fighting 2 wars. The greatest financial crisis in 80 years. The morst partisan admin ever. Our reputation across the world in tatters.

    To avoid accountability for this, John McCain wants to change the subject so we don’t talk about the fact that he voted for Bush 90% of the time he was wracking up this disastrous record.

    But since mcCain wants to talk about Ayers, I just want to point out that whatever bad thing about me he’s implying to me through this guilt-by-association smear will aply to him. I have worked with Senator McCain in the US Senate, so by his standard, any aspect of my past will apply to him. If he says I have been palling around with a terrorist, well Senator McCain has been associated with me.

    But guilt by association is a stupid standard. That’s one reason we haven’t made this campaign about the fact that McCain calls G. Gordon Liddy, a man who was convicted for plotting acts similar to Ayers’ despicable crimes, McCain calls him a great American this year. McCain has long known Ollie North who sold weapons to the same Iranian regime McCain now wants to bomb.

    But this election is not about guilt by association smears. it’s about delivering health care to the uninsured and dropping premiums for the insured. It’s about a middle class tax cut for 95% of Americans. It’s about ending the war in Iraq and ripping Al Qaeda to shreds in Afghanistan. This is a serious election. It’s a pity a man like McCain wants to ignore the serious issues our country faces to deal in silly smears.

  60. Ubiquitous Says:

    If this is viable, then Sarah Palin’s links to the AIP are square in the sights

  61. Oliver Says:

    Some basic fact checking shows just how dumb Kurtz’s story is.

    The Chicago Annenberg Challenge fund was – duh – a challenge fund; the Annenberg Foundtion donated $49.2M to CAC over a five-year period conditional on CAC raising matching funds in a ratio of 2:1. Thus CAC’s total budget was $147.6M.

    Kurtz’s article says that CAC made a donation of $200K to CIESS in 1996, and “large Annenberg grants throughout the 1990s”, although he doesn’t specify how much. (That’s sloppy phrasing by the way – CAC couldn’t have made donations throughout the 90s, since it only got going in 95/96).

    Assuming, generously, that the grants were $200K per year throughout the five years the challenge was running, that’s $1M.

    Or, to put the figure in context, 0.6% of CAC’s total budget. And CIESS used some, presumably rather small, fraction of that amount to fund teacher training days at which two academics with views similar to Reverend Wright spoke.

    So Kurtz’s entire case boils down to this:

    Senator Obama chaired a grant-making organisation which awarded 0.6% of its total budget to an educational organisation which, in turn, devoted some small fraction of that amount to funding teacher training events at which two academics with offbeat views spoke.

    That’s it. And the wingnuts on The Corner profess themselves amazed that TMM doesn’t run with these kinds of stories…

  62. Black pearl Says:

    William Ayers is a professor of education at the University of Illinois at Chicago, with whom Barack served on the board of an education-reform organization in the mid-1990’s. According to the Associated Press, they are not close: “No evidence shows they were “pals” or even close when they worked on community boards years ago …” (http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D93KD6Q00&show_article=1)

    Smear groups and now the McCain campaign are trying to connect Obama to acts Ayers committed 40 years ago – when Barack was just eight years old. Here’s what the New York Times reported on the connection (http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/04/us/politics/04ayers.html)
