Demonic_ How the Liberal Mob Is Endangering America - Ann Coulter [83]
Dohrn and her husband Ayers have dined out for half a century on the glory of their days as Weathermen. They’re the domestic terrorist version of Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? They give dramatic renderings of their days “underground” as if it took wily stratagems to hide in a country where 12 million illegal aliens stroll about Los Angeles undetected.
The aging lothario, five-foot-four Ayers particularly enjoys recounting his sexual exploits. Here’s a selection from his 2001 book on—guess what?—his days as a Weatherman: “She felt warm and moist” … “Her mouth opening slightly, our tongues touching secretly” … “Another night Diana and Rachel and Terry and I bedded down together” … “You were supposed to f—k no matter what.” …44
In 2002, there was yet another movie made about these narcissistic sociopaths, The Weather Underground. Naturally, it was nominated for an Oscar.
The moment Yale-reject mediocrities became “radicals,” throwing rocks at cops and setting bombs, they entered a lifetime of praise—and insta-rehabilitation. When it was time for them to make money, they were hired for cushy teaching jobs at the nation’s universities.
To name just a few:
• Ron Karenga, aka Dr. Maulana Karenga, was a founder of United Slaves, a violent nationalist rival to the Black Panthers and a dupe of the FBI. In 1971, Karenga was convicted of torturing two members of United Slaves. The Los Angeles Times reported on the trial testimony of one of Karenga’s victims:
Deborah Jones, who once was given the Swahili title of an African queen, said she and Gail Davis were whipped with an electrical cord and beaten with a karate baton after being ordered to remove their clothes. She testified that a hot soldering iron was placed in Miss Davis’ mouth and placed against Miss Davis’ face and that one of her own big toes was tightened in a vise. Karenga, head of US, also put detergent and running hoses in their mouths, she said.45
Karenga is a professor of black studies at California State University, Long Beach.46
• William Ayers put a bomb in the Pentagon and now teaches childhood education at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
• Ayers’s wife, Ohrnstein/Dohrn, called for revolutionary war in the United States, praised the Manson family, laughed about a paralyzed DA, said “Bring the Revolution home, kill your parents—that’s where it’s at,” and participated in the bombing of the Pentagon. She is a professor at Northwestern University’s Children and Justice Center.
• Mark Rudd, also a Weatherman leader, who led the student strike at Columbia University, taught at a community college in New Mexico until retiring in 2007.
• Angela Davis, former Black Panther, was the legal owner of the guns the Panthers used to blow off the head of Marin County judge Harold Haley in an attempt to free Davis’s boyfriend, George Jackson. Today she is a professor at the University of California at Santa Cruz.
• Eleanor Raskin was involved in all the Weathermen’s lunacy, from the Days of Rage to the Greenwich Village townhouse bombing. She now teaches at Albany Law School.
• Mike Klonsky was National Chairman of SDS in 1968, during the violent riots at the Democratic National Convention, and founded the Maoist October League, which later adopted the catchy name “The Communist Party (Marxist Leninist).” In 1977, he was an honored guest of the Communist Chinese government, where he comically vowed to “topple the U.S. imperialist ruling class” and told the Chinese “we are determined as well to make a contribution to the worldwide struggle against the two superpowers.” The Chinese enjoyed his presentation because they don’t speak English.
Today, Klonsky is a professor of education at the University of Illinois at Chicago. When Barack Obama was doling out various foundation grants, he funneled nearly $2 million to Klonsky and Bill
