Talk about grasping at straws.

World Net Daily is a Right-wing nutjob Web site run by that Right-wing nutjob, Joseph Farrah. Farrah is, of course, a failed newspaper editor and wanna-be Important Book Publisher.

Well, WND has a writer named Aaron Klein who purportedly writes from Jerusalem. Klein's latest offering on WND.com carries this headline: "Obama Tied to Ayers ... At Age 11."

Ayers is, as you will recall, Bill Ayers, the former Weather Underground member who received so much publicity during the last presidential race, mainly thanks to that Right-wing nutjob in high heels, Sarah Palin.

Anyway, in this ... thing ..written by Klein, the "author" attempts to link Obama -- 11-year-old Obama -- to Ayers in a most circuitous (and idiotic) way.

Rather than me try to explain it to you, let's let Klein exhibit his, um, grasp, of the links:

While Obama's membership as an adult in the controversial Trinity United Church of Christ has received widespread media attention, almost nothing has been reported about his Sunday school attendance at First Unitarian, a far-left activist church that may have helped provide the president's initial political education.

First Unitarian, a member of the Unitarian Universalist denomination, served as a sanctuary for draft dodgers and was strongly tied to the Students for a Democratic Society, or SDS, during the time Weatherman radical Bill Ayers was a leader in that organization. The Weathermen was an offshoot of the SDS.

So let me get this straight. We should think there's some sort of nefarious, covered-up connection between President Obama and Bill Ayers because Obama, when he was 11, attended Sunday school at a church that Klein alleges was "strongly tied" to Students for a Democratic Society, an "offshoot" of which was the Weathermen, and of which Ayers was a member.

Uh huh.

As is the modus operandi of Right-wing propagandists such as Klein and WND, the whole story is not told. The Weathermen were not an "offshoot" of the SDS in the sense that the former organization supported the latter. Just the opposite. The Weathermen were what was left after a power struggle in the national office of the SDS, and received much of its support from that insular group. The chapters for the most part did not support them and soon disbanded. So it's more accurate to say that the Weathermen were the remains of the SDS after an internal battle.

But Klein clearly isn't interested in accuracy, (as he demonstrates in his Twitter posts, where he can't even remember at what age Obama attended this Sunday school) as he demonstrates in this passage:

The SDS connection to Obama's boyhood church is instrumental. During last year's presidential campaign, Obama notoriously brushed off Ayers' extremism as irrelevant since most of the Weathermen radical's violent actions were carried out when Obama was a kid.

"This is a guy (Ayers) who lives in my neighborhood ... the notion that somehow as a consequence of me knowing somebody who engaged in detestable acts 40 years ago - when I was 8 years old - somehow reflects on me and my values doesn't make much sense," Obama said in 2008.

Obama, however, likely learned values during his Sunday school days at the First Unitarian in the early 1970s.

Obama "likely" learned his values during his Sunday school days? What the hell is that, Klein? What kind of hack writer submits this slop? What kind of hack media outlet actually prints it?

To paraphrase a former NJ governor. "Aaron Klein and World Net Daily. Perfect together."

Keep the faith.
