- I am so glad that Jimmy Carter had the balls to not be traditionally diplomatic and to speak out against Bush, who is exactly what he has been called, "The worst president in history". I have never seen our country more anxious to start anticipating the next election, you'd think the election was this November, for all the attention the nation is paying to our upcoming candidates, and can you blame us? Bush has done nothing but run our country into the ground, put us trillions in debt, gas prices have multiplied by 3, most of the world hates us now, and he has the blood of thousands on his hands, INCLUDING those who died in 9/11. Wake up people, quit listening to Rush Limbaugh and being a sheep of the Republican party and get some common sense....Jimmy--xoxoxox to you!

- Strange but the history of the region shows that Jimmy Boy is the one that "Midwifed" Islamofacism into the world geo-political scene. The years haven't been kind to 'Jimmy Boy' he is degenerating into an angry cantankerous old kook. Even his own staff, at his Arab shiek funded institute could not stomach his latest book, that sought to establish a moral equivalency. Between hostage taking PLO terrosrim and the State of Isreal, and it's right to exist. Enjoy your '40 pices' Mr. Carter

- How anyone can STILL support the Bush administration is BEYOND me. I don't remember Carter LIEING about reasons to invade a country. Some people accept their government lieing to them like it is normal. Go figure.

- Ever hear the expression "It takes one to know one"? Carter was a very weak president in a host of areas. He allowed the Iranians to keep our citizens prisoner WITHOUT TRUE CONSEQUENCES. He gave away the Panama Canal. We had the worst inflation ever under his "leadership." Funny thing is, ever since his one-term in office he has seen fit to lambast EVERY one of his replacements- yup, even Clinton. Carter hates the fact he is irrelevant in today's political arena. Both Repubs and Dems tune him out...

- What would really bolster Carters' opinion of Bush would be to have another ex-President come out in support of him - and agree Bush is the worst. Is anyone in the media asking them if they wish to comment ?

- So carter did "everything" to keep us out of war?? What he did was DELAY a war that had been brewing for decades. He ignored the threats, wrung his hands and allowed our citizens to remain prisoners of over a year. For those who rewrite history, we are were we are today because we did nothing for decades. There is a thread and for those who are not blind, they should be able to see the thread.

Or you could say that a few of those who preceded him (Eisenhower, Nixon, Ford) did things to get us into war.
Eisenhower toppled the Iranian government.
Nixon started oil quotas. Ford continued them.
Just face it, jane. You hate Carter. That's acceptable. But you do NOT want to know the truth. You just keep harping on the same old baseless *****.
Carter didn't "wring his hands." The hostages could have come home a lot sooner had Reagan not "cut a deal" to give Iran arms. And being the egotistical bastardd that he was, he had them held until the very minute he became president just to make himself look like a hero.
The funny thing is jane, Reagan didn't give a rat's asss about people like you and me. He only cared about his wealthy cronies and his tax cuts proved it. - Reply to this comment
- (AP) The White House on Sunday dismissed former President Jimmy Carter as "increasingly irrelevant" after his harsh criticism of President George W. Bush.
ROFLMMFAO!! Funny, but predictable.
What else could they say? "Yeah, Carter's right!" Or deny it?
They can hardly deny it because even they know it's true. And they didn't deny it, so they must have accepted it as true.
Besides, the bush administration is in its "bitter death throes" of defeat. It's lying on its back like a dying cockroach with its many legs thrashing about trying to grasp at anything to stay alive.
Many of its legs (O'Neill, Powell, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Card, and soon, Gonzo) have been "detached" from the body, and the head and body (Bush & Cheney) will soon be found in a Vegas cockroach trap! - Reply to this comment
- You tell em Jimmy....a far better man withthe moral and intellectual depth to tell the truth about the fascist-corporate regime who have denigrated our Nation and betrayed our ideals to service their corporate masters. Wave the flag and send the peasants to death for the greater glory of EXXON. Lott, Libby, Cunningham, Wolfowitz, Frisk, Foggo, Abramovich, Rumsfield and soon the lackey Gonzo Gonzales.....reads like a litany of lowlifes from the Third Reich. Now it is time to go for Rove (Bormann), Cheney(Goering) and finally the little dufus in der bunker. God have we been cursed by the gullibility of so many Americans to believe the rich, chickenhawk, flag waving, fear mongering, warmongering, power mad, corporate kiss *****. Next time lets try Thinking before we gaily send others off to war for which we as a nation do not fully support with our blood but are quite willing to send others to take a bullet for the likes of bush and cheney....draft dodging cowards.

- Thank God for people who have the courage to speak up and tell it like it is. We've all heard so many lies these past few years we have lost our identity as a free nation. Why are the American people taking it so calmly? Thank you, Mr. Carter.

- Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?
well you demonic-rats is it???
It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace--but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! March 23, 1775 Patrick Henry

- Just one example is how Enron screwed the public in California and hung their employees out to dry to see capitalism gone berserk.

california? enron was founded in omaha and then moved to houston...
what's your point... that there is no utopia... duhhh
at least in the USA they did get busted... corruption is rampid in all the islamic countries... and if you are not a muslim you are locked out... typically you have to have a muslim partner who collects 50% of the profits and do nothing for them...
as bad as capitalism is... it is the best thing on the planet... especially for the working guy... even the lowest paid in a capitalist country can invest and become financially independent and secure... even a dish washer...
let me know when you find utopis... or come up with your perfect utopian system... good luck with that...
kudos for putting americans over illegals... - Reply to this comment
- Carter is so full of himself!!!! He just makes all his uneducated comments in hope people will forget what an awful president he was!!!! If only you liber l media would wake up and not give a man like Carter the time or day, we wouldn't have to hear the garbage that comes out of that man's mouth. What president has ever stood up to terrorist before and stuck to it? Only Bush!!!! Thank God because if he didn't the war would be over here. Wake up you liberals, the terrorist don't care about human life!! This is not going to be a cut and run war!!!

I have a job, in fact I own my own company. I could take advantage of the cheap labor but I choose to support my community and its residents.
There are way too many opportunists out their that think they are entitled to take all they can and not give anything of value back. Anything, including capitalism, can be taken to far. What some of these corporations are doing in the name of profits is criminal. Just one example is how Enron screwed the public in California and hung their employees out to dry to see capitalism gone berserk. There need to be checks and balances to everything and this administration has tried removed them all in the name of corporate profits.
You are no differant than the radical Muslims you bash, intolerant and single minded in your hatred. - Reply to this comment
