Jimmy Carter lets loose: Knocks Obama and Hillary, says Russia didn’t alter election, praises Trump
The Blaze ^ | October 22, 2017 | Chris Enloe, Weekend Editor

Jimmy Carter is the oldest of all living ex-presidents at 93, but he is still in tune with national politics. He made his views about some of the latest pressing national issues very clear in a recent interview with New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd.

On Russia meddling in the election

Dowd asked Carter: “Did the Russians purloin the election from Hillary?”

Carter said: “Rosie and I have a difference of opinion on that.” Rosie is Carter’s wife.

“I don’t think there’s any evidence that what the Russians did changed enough votes, or any votes,” Carter followed up.....

There is a lot to read in between the lines in that article. Very Damning on Hillary and Obama and the media. Pretty well sums up what we all think we know. Would like to read the maureen dowd version. It’s behind a paywall. Some kind soul private message me with it?

I think he was probably kidnapped by aliens and reverse-implanted.

“Carter may have ‘lusted in his heart’, but he seems to have been a pretty decent man in that respect. I’m sure he finds BJ abhorrent.”

Blow jobs?

“Wow. I don’t know what Carter has been taking to reverse his senility but I want to find out before I get there.”

He’s already forgotten what he said.

My thoughts exactly. Never in a million years, right?

What alternative universe did I just wake up in when Jimmy Carter is defending a conservative president, and W. comes out of retirement to bash him?

“I thought Jimmy Carter lost his marbles but is proving to be smarter or more caring about this country than the Democratic politicians in congress.”

After all, he is old school and a Navy vet. Maybe these factors are working rheir way out between the aluminum and communist plaques in his brain.

“I think he’s aiming for more than that. He wants to be no worse than third worst former President. He might pass GWB after these comments.”

You mean Lincoln,Obama, Carter?

Wrong. George H.W. Bush is older by almost four months.

However, Carter now holds the record (having succeeded Herbert Hoover) of living longest after his term ended. Perhaps that is what the author had in mind.

“What alternative universe did I just wake up in when Jimmy Carter is defending a conservative president, and W. comes out of retirement to bash him?”

I’d say the real one. Because in real life though he was very wrong about a couple of things, Jimmy loved America and wasn’t a crapweasel globalist like W. Jimmy was a good man inside and got where he did on his own. W was a coke using partyboy who rode dads coat tails after Reagans tragic choice.
The two are very opposite in character.

So that’s my take, Jimmy wasn’t as bad as we thought. And W was a globalist who wasn’t nearly as conservative as we all pretended.

In truth, W wasn’t much different than Obama except for the cultural window dressing. Their policies are nearly indistinguishable.

In a very real way, I wonder if Carter has some sympathy for Trump. Both were elected by Americans who were fully disgusted by DC and wanted an outsider.

And when Carter didn’t work out, we thank god went to Reagan who was another outsider but who was wiser, except for his choice to bring the Bush family along with him.

First read the headline as, “Jimmy Carter gets loose.” Rabbits, take heed!

Broken clocks and Jimmah.
