For the Record
Oct. 11th, 2008 10:15 amThe only people that the Weathermen ever killed was themselves. Also Mark Felt was outed as Woodward and Bernstein's Watergate leaker, "Deep Throat".
This from the lead federal prosecutor of the Weathermen:
Prosecuting Weathermen - Letters to the Editor - NY Times - 09 Oct 08
"Although I dearly wanted to obtain convictions against all the Weathermen, including Bill Ayers, I am very pleased to learn that he has become a responsible citizen.
Because Senator Obama recently served on a board of a charitable organization with Mr. Ayers cannot possibly link the senator to acts perpetrated by Mr. Ayers so many years ago.
I do take issue with the statement in your news article that the Weathermen indictment was dismissed because of 'prosecutorial misconduct.' It was dismissed because of illegal activities, including wiretaps, break-ins and mail interceptions, initiated by John N. Mitchell, attorney general at that time, and W. Mark Felt, an F.B.I. assistant director."
