Jack Cashill catalogs numerous instances in Dreams of My Father which factually and rhetorically mirror Bill Ayer’s own memoir penned in 2001, Fugitive Days.
These stories and speculations are not new and only add to the amazing mystery that is our President. Dreams is certainly masterfully written, yet in no other work does Obama either write in a similar style or with such obvious talent. The implications of fraud are hard for even conservative American to contemplate. The unrepentant terrorist and enemy to America, Bill Ayers, would never admit to such a deed. No matter what comes of the Obama presidency or revelations of this book, the speculation about who actually wrote Dreams will prove to be one of America’s greatest mysteries.
So as the book itself serves as an almost singular reason for the assumed Obama genious, considering the opposite is too painful for Democrats. Cashill summarizes this here:
For the literary left, the fact that Ayers helped Obama would be a less troubling revelation than that Obama needed help at all. They have built a foundational myth around his genius, a genius that can be located only in Dreams. The dark side of the Democrat genius mythology, of course, is the Republican dunce mythology of which Sarah Palin and George Bush are the most recent victims.
There is thus a logic to the left’s willful blindness. Why the literary right has accepted this charade continues to baffle me.
The search in some circles of Obama’s place of birth, his mystery years and numerous curious relationships remain dark shadows over the president. His radical domestic agendas and stealth moves against Israel do nothing but provide reason for worry.
