(Interview starts :50) So while Joe the Plumber was making his post 15-minute rounds on Glenn Beck's radio program today, professor/former radical/Republican Trojan horse Bill Ayers (remember him?!), made his second major television appearance last night on Hardball to discuss the accusations made against him during the McCain campaign.
What did the former Weatherman think about years his years of genuine, if misguided, activism being used as ammunition by the Right?
He was sort of "meh" about it actually. Maybe because the old guy doesn't watch a lot of TV in his compound totally normal home.
"I don't tend to watch television news…I have three grown sons who kind of filter those things and they sent it to me."
Oh, and then he says he found Palin's statements to be "profoundly dishonest," and goes off in a 10 minute talk with Chris about Vietnam. So what's more interesting/boring to watch? A professor talk intelligently about politics or a would-be plumber talk about God and Hillary Clinton?
Right: and that's exactly why Joe Wurzelbacher keeps getting work after Nov. 5th and Bill Ayers will be happy to fade back into obscurity.

Bill Ayers deserves a hanging, not an interview.
After the interview, I thought Bill Ayers was a very stand-up kind guy with strong principles and he is repectable and willing to scarifice for others.
Joe the Plumbing Hobbist on the other hand is pretty much the symbol of what's wrong with this country. Don't want taxes but welfare for me — ok. It all about himself.
