There is a story on Power Line that reminds us that the relationship between Bill Ayers and Barack Obama does matter.  It is the story of child whose father was a judge in one of the Black Panther trials.  Their house was firebombed one night.  Needless to say, he still carries that memory.  Do you want a person who is friends with people who dislike this country (also friends who condemn this country from a church pulpit) filling staff and cabinet positions in our government?  That is the relevance of these friendships.  What type of people will be in a Barack Obama government?
