Yes, Virginia, Bill Ayers Did Ghostwrite Dreams From My FatherYou probably read about this during the election. With Chris Matthews yukking it up over Sarah Palin's need of a collaborator for her own book, Jack Cashill unloads again, making a persuasive case that Bill Ayers wrote, or substantially wrote and rewrote, Obama's Dreams of My Father. The case isn't quite proven, though there is strong evidence here. I hate being Johnny One Note, but this is yet another case of a story begging to be pursued by the MSM -- and an important one -- which they don't pursue because they fear they know where it will lead. There are plenty of echoes in "Obama's" memoir of Ayers' own memoir (Fugitive Days), but I find the nautical stuff the most convincing. Ayers lived a considerably more adventurous life than Obama, beginning with his youthful days as a merchant seaman in the North Atlantic. "I realized that no one else could ever know this singular experience," Ayers writes. Yet much of the nautical language that flows through Fugitive Days flows through Obama's earth-bound memoir. Cashill explained this at greater length in a previous article: Given that advice, I dug deeper into both memoirs and established one metaphoric thread that ties the two books together in a way I believe is just shy of conclusive, a thread that leads back to Bill Ayers's stint, after dropping out of college, as a merchant seaman. The science of this (to the extent this is a science) suggests Ayers is the author as well: The "Fugitive Days" excerpt scores a 54 on reading ease and a 12th grade reading level. The "Dreams'" excerpt scores a 54.8 on reading ease and a 12th grade reading level. Scores can range from 0 to 121, so hitting a nearly exact score matters. And, just for fun, let's review Obama's previous literary output-- a poem he wrote for a college magazine: Under water grottos, caverns It sure would be nice if anyone in the media would ask Obama from whence he'd derived his ease of speaking in maritime metaphors. And when he lost his interest in dancing apes and figs. Thanks to someone.
