Why Does Jimmy Carter Think We're All Racists?
http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2009/09/024555.php ^

Posted on 09/20/2009 5:14:00 PM PDT by chessplayer

At The Corner yesterday, Hans von Spakovsky offered a compelling explanation: Carter himself has a history of virulent racism. The facts, drawn from A Voting Rights Odyssey by Laughlin McDonald, director of the ACLU's Voting Project, are astonishing:

Just a liberal reaction, not to face reality.

He doesn't. It's just a cheap tactic. He's just an old fool being used as a useful idiot.

Because he’s a racist and is trying to deflect. He can’t call another governor “that little Jew bastard” and think he can escape from being called a racist himself.

Jimmah is projecting.

Ann Coulter pointed out that a lot of libbie elites do that.

I would suggest that "Jimmuh" is using the Goebellsian propaganda technique of Turnspeak; i.e., the propaganda technique where one accuses one's opponent(s) of the odious beliefs or acts that one is doing oneself, but "Jimmuh" never seemed smart enough to me to do such a thing.

these facts never came out in either of Carter's two presidential races.

C'mon, it ain't like he said "macaca" or something.

As others have said, Carter is most likely projecting his own prejudices onto others as their motives. Just like someone who cannot trust is himself (or herself) generally not trustworthy... Someone who sees race or racism behind everything is, obviously, assigning motives to that person based on race. That by definition is racist. Hence, Carter and the other race-baiters are showing themselves to be racist. Probably the only racists involved in the whole issue.

Because that’s the liberal shtick. All whites are born racists. We need to apologize and make up for it. We also need to be ashamed of being American and give more money to the UN and “the less-developed” countries.

Just another way to try to make people feel guilty in order to separate them from their money.

I think Jimmah has the “Queer Eye for Another One-Term Guy” syndrome. Did he lust in his heart?

Because he is stuck in a time warp, constantly reviewing his old success and sticking with what worked for him in the past.

He is a self-loathing white person who thinks of himself as a racist because he was born white and as all liberals know, all whites are racist.

Because he's a racist, so everyone else must be as well.

Only a racist would accuse moms, dads, sons, daughters of being racists because they oppose Zero's policies that obstruct freedom, liberty and truth.

Carter is looking for any opportunity, even if he has to create one, to cover his own guilt. This is an old adolescent ploy of accusing everyone else around him. Even most adolescents are now more imaginative. Of course, there is the other virulent disease of arrogance that is also now so pervasive. Jimmy sets himself up as being well qualified to judge the thoughts of others. He is a sad case.

It’s as Ann Coulter says, liberals accuse conservatives of the very things they do instead. ‘Projection’ is a fitting definition.

He's a mean old white inbred old school stereotypical Southern racist. He hates. Outwardly he hates republicans and Jews, but I think his hatred runs much deeper. My guess is he also has some degenerative form of dementia. He screwed up the country as bad as any President could, but at this point I just feel sorry for him. A doddering old fool who can't keep his mouth shut tainting all the good he did after his disastrous Presidency.

What I don’t understand is how people could play racial politics in America like its the 1960s when it is 40 years later. The only large “minority” in America, today, from a world wide perspective, is actually probably white people.

He hasn’t had a masculine thought in 45 years (if ever). That’s his trouble; he thinks like estrogen.
Example: when my grown-up kid wants money, I want to get in his face. That’s when my wife’s estrogen kicks in and wants to mollycoddle him, enable him, for the sixteenth time.

Because despite his protestations he is one and is acsribing his racism onto others to explain Bozo’s troubles.

Freud would have fun analyzing Jimmuh.

He thinks that everybody is as bad as he was.

Your worst problem, Jimmuh, was not the lust in your heart. It was the greed. That’s how you and your dad were so gung ho with Jim Crow.

Jimmah Carter says he hears voices of white southerners condemning Obama because of his race...........and he also sees Elvis on every street corner.

He needs to check into the nearest psychiatric facility to be checked for incipient dementia.

Why Does Jimmy Carter Think We're All Racists?...oh please, he knows we're not all racists - he just thinks we'll all shut up and stop talking about what we want to talk about if he accuses us of racism - fortunately we've been hearing that cry of "Wolf" for so long now it has no effect any more, except maybe to enrage those who are on the receiving end of such abuse......

He’s pointing his finger at everyone else hoping no one will uncover his own VERY racist past in Georgia -

There is only one little problem with Presidents Carters assumption that we can’t accept a Black man as president that is why we are racist. Well last I heard President Obama is half white, so he isn’t 100% Black. Of course all us smart people judge a person by their actions, not the color of their skin. When I look at my neighbors I look at them as neighbors and friends, not an Indian Family, Black Family, White Family, Puerto Rican Family. It just burns me up when people try to tell me what I think.

“Why Does Jimmy Carter Think We’re All Racists?”

#1 He doesn’t think

#2 He does that to cover the issues.

It’s been a long-term leftist tactic to call opponents racists, in order to intimidate them into backing down. It is losing effectiveness
