Pot Meet Kettle

Jimmah Carter, the worst president of the 20th Century, opened his yap again and said that the Bush administration had been the "worst in history" for its impact around the world. Yeah. This from the guy who was responsible for the rise of radical Islam in Iran. Speat to us about foreign policy Jimmah, you addled old fool.

Now, He's backing off.

ATLANTA — Former President Jimmy Carter said Monday his remarks were "careless or misinterpreted" when he said the Bush administration has been the "worst in history" for its impact around the world.

What he meant to say was, "I am a senile old fool."

He added: "I think this administration's foreign policy compared to president Nixon's was much worse," Carter said. But he said he did not mean to call it the worst in history.

Nope! That one is reserved for the Carter administration.

Just go back to Plains and STFU, Jimmah.

Update: Gateway Pundit has a list of Jimmah's foreign policy "successes"

No Balls Carter......

If you opened your yap at least you should take the flak.......Mis-interpreted, Bullshit!

The wisdom of some American Indians for putting out their aged tribal elder`s for the bears & wolves instead of becoming a liabilty once again proves to be appropriate if not humane.

with all due respect to gateway pundit (nice post) don't forget Carter's encore in North Korea in the 90's. Hell, Kim Jong Il got a great deal on that one. At least the indians who sold manhattan got some shiny beads.

Patty McGuire was the cover model on the Playboy interview issue, Jimbo has not been connected with anything worthwhile since.

Just think, we wouldn't be in most of the shit we're in today if Carter had grown a set and bombed Teheran back to the Stone Age the day after the hostages were taken.

That right there is the number one reason the Islamofucks thought they could get away with murder. Unfortunately, subsequent administrations have done little to alter that perception.

I saw a comment some where else that he is our best expresident because everything improved so much when he left office.

Jimmy farked up for sure. And then tried to take it back. It didn't set well with us Dims.

There's audio of Carter's interview. He was not misinterpreted, as he claimed after the Shit Hit the Fan. What a lying, backtracking, weaselly sonofabitch.

all things considered...Jeremy's comment says it all...to bad Jimmer can't develop an allergy to peanuts

Teresa ......"Trixie"

You are upset at the antics of your chosen party elder statesmen Jimmah! I got news for you .....We conservatives seen what a lying,racist,inept BS artist he was & is years ago. He is a role model for the current crop of crap put forth by the party of liberal socialism......the dimocrats.

Unfortunately they with GWB are determined to open a speed lane from Mexico to the heartland of the United States with us to pay the freight & suffer the consequences. First, if you think your town is overrun with illegal`s ,you aint seen nothing yet.Second does not some common sense cry out to you that you have been momumentally had politically?

If you still remain adamant for your liberal dimocrat persuasion.......I guess there be no hope for you. Best you get a bust of Jimmah & put it on your mantle ,sort of like a shrine to the emptiness of the liberal dimocratic philosophy.

Teresa the tricked...."Trixie" it fits!

The problem with Carter as a public figure is that to many (not me) he's a likeable kind of guy. With all his altruistic projects and his easy going manner, he appeals to many "sheeple" (aka Dimocrats) even though he has no/nada/none leadership abilities. It is this ability to fool people that is the basis for the dimocrats successes. Here's something I don't understand that maybe others more educated in history can educate me on. Why is it that the Jewish people seem to give more support to the Dimocrats when the majority of them not only express anti-Semitic tendencies, but are also so weak on self defense that they disagree with just about everthing Israel does militarily. With the support our current administration gives Israel with regards for it's right to defend itself, and the fact that we all share a common enemy (Islam), I don't understand why it seems a large majority of them support a pacifistic political group. Any takers?

Having met ex-president Carter a number of times as he has traveled around the country (airline employee with access) and (sadly) requested his autograph for a number of girlfriends, I have to agree he is likeable, in a "dottering old fool" like of way. Might I suggest since most people here seem to be of like mind we send a few letters to the Carter Center? I've done this in the past (specifically about his rediculous, crazy comments at CSK's funeral) and he does resond.

The Carter Center
One Copenhill
453 Freedom Parkway
Atlanta, GA 30307
While his comments make me cringe, I liken Carter and his comments to old uncle Stanly - crazy as a bedbug, but good for an ice cream cone......or autograph.

Dudley1, Never said that I was a Jimmah fan. Concur with you that there is a speed lane from Mexico to my heartland. Thank you Tyson and John Morrell for that. All the illegal's have to do is flash a fake SS# and they are hired. Bam!

Posted by: Teresa on May 22, 2007 09:47 PM

Ed, the difference is your old Uncle Stanly doesn't do freelance foreign policy. Warren Christopher, Clinton's first Secretary of State, was reportedly so pissed at Carter for trying to do end-runs around the State Department that the two still don't exchange Christmas cards. Carter's not a dottering old fool, he's a loose cannon that should have been tied down long ago.

No hope for me Dudley1? Come on,lets play fair. Really not in the mood to argue as my son just came home for 4 days before he has to go to Fort Shelby for 2 months and then to Iraq. Is 2 months really enough training to prepare them for their mission? Not likely.

Posted by: Teresa on May 22, 2007 11:40 PM

It's Camp Shelby.

I take the meds VA prescribes for me and yes, they do as advertised.

But I've GOT to say that YOUR free-voice does a LOT to inspire me to find out what I might 'be' if I wasn't on all this med.

I asked a chance to SERVE, to Protect, to Defend the America of my understanding .... and I GOT that chance... not once, but twice.

I Read here daily & I think I hear that what matters is 'buy-in' .. an agreement to agree.

Well, I haven't been here for that reason for at least 2 years.

Do you REALLY think President Carter did something-less than what the Moral Majority asked of him?

Look back, .... remember who undercut him almost daily. Look further back and recall why he was elected in the first place.

You ask me what I thought of the time of Desert One and I will plainly tell you that it was The Military that screwed that one up.

Unless you prefer micro-manager CIC's; in which case, GWB is indeed the Worst President Ever.

Carter gave an order for a Mission; it failed due to military operations. You justify GWB on these terms???

Posted by: DanS on May 23, 2007 12:50 AM

Dans......

You take the meds that the VA prescribes & they work as advertised......Does VA stand for Vague Awareness?

Actually DanS, other then your liberal beliefs, you seem to be a bright fellow unfortunately going through life with blinders on.A few more agreements with the conservative point of view & you will be cured.

Jimmy Carter was the worst, most inept President in the the last century if not the entire history of the country. He was the supreme commander at the time of the hostage rescue fiasco, as opposed to a purely military operation this was under the direct control & supervision of the Carter team. Jimmy was appraised at every step for the planning & co-ordination of this operation, He has to take responsibility. Remember Harry Truman... THE BUCK STOPS HERE! As far as I am concerned .... Carter & his team mis-used & abused the military. Stupid is as Stupid does , incompetance works that way.

Posted by: dudley1 on May 23, 2007 08:13 AM

Dan:

The military guys can weigh in on Desert 1, and there was certainly a ton of blame to go around, but IIRC, Jimmah was the one who insisted on all the services being involved, as opposed to one of them being in charge, thus leading to the utter CF that turned into.

remember who undercut him almost daily.

Oh, right, I forgot about all those Republicans tramping off to Tehran to discuss "alternative negotiations".

Actually, it's not quite that clear. Nowhere near it, The WH was involved on every aspect.

GWB has taken the opposite tact, potentially too far the other way, having learned from Carter and LBJ what happens when the WH tries to senior-officer, Bush has been far less controlling, and more likely to allow the officers in charge their head, and not giving them sufficient guidance, IMO.

Ray, that is one excellent question that you posed. I believe that you can find alot of answers to your question in a book by David Horowitz, shit, I hope that I get the title right Red Diaper Babies. I may have goofed it, so I'll look it up and email you the info. Another example is why do blacks vote for the dimmys? Lincoln got rid of slavery, and so on...alot of goofy history wrangling has gone on thanks to The Clan and the likes of "Revs" Jackson and Sharpton. The biggest reason I'm cheesed off at the RINOS and their craptastic Amnesty thing, it's not cool to sell us out for what they may see as a new voting bloc. Bad form to say the least.
