One Man's Terrorist...

Before John McCain runs off and pretends that he and his running mate never meant any harm in saying that Barack Obama 'palled around with terrorists'...(BTW: how come no one uses the very cool syntax symmetry of "pallin' with Palin"?) consider the source. Carl Bernstein has a wonderful depiction of the McCain relationship with American traitor Gordon Liddy. The key paragraph of his column:

During the same period that Bill Ayers was a member of the Weather Underground, Gordon Liddy was making plans to firebomb a Washington think tank, assassinate a prominent journalist, undertake the Watergate burglary, break into the office of Daniel Ellsberg's psychiatrist, and kidnap anti-war protesters at the 1972 Republican convention.

McCain as recently as last year said on Liddy's radio show, "I'm proud of you...and (your) adherence to the principles and philosophies that keep our nation great."
