This is so silly.
You can always tell when these meatheads have lost the argument. They go right for the race card.
If Mr. Obama were white, I bet Mr. Wilson would have yelled the same thing: “You lie!”
Mr. Carter? Worst president since James Buchanan. Perhaps the worst. Met him once. He’s full of himself and is a humorless lout. Just like Mr. Obama.

Any opposition to socialism is evidence that you think your own race is superior to another’s. That makes such perfect sense!

Typical of dementia patients. They can remember the distant, but not immediate past.
Carter’s just harking back to his days in rural Georgia when Democrats were openly racist (and proud of it).

apprehension and disagreement with a policy or an issue does NOT smack of racism...
Just because Carter and most of the Democrats live in a racist undertone world doesn't mean the rest of us do...
Why do you think the MA elite Dems only live among white people? ---> racists...

Whenever Carter speaks I think of this scene from the Movie “Annie Hall”
“And-and Ivan Ackerman [Jimmy Carter], always the wrong answer. Always.”
Ivan [Jimmy] stands up behind his desk.
IVAN [Jimmy] “Seven and three is nine.”
Alvy hits his forehead with his hand. Another student glances over at him, reacting.

That’s rich, an anti-Semite accusing someone who has a legitimate criticism of the president of being racist.

A brief thought about Jimmy Carter Hotair.com - September 16, 2009 by Ed Morrissey
...Hamas regularly issues anti-Semitic harangues and smears, and yet Carter has no problem cozying up to them...
...From now on, using Carters own logic, we should note each of his remarks on the Middle East by saying they come from Jimmy Carter, known anti-Semite. Two can play this game.
