The Left never teaches youth that Jimmy Carter's version of "Peace" kills far more people than ever died in the Iraq War.

Carter, a Nobel Peace Prize recipient, spoke of . . . Mattie's devotion to peace. "He was deeply aware of global affairs," Carter said, recalling that Mattie was in Children's Hospital's intensive care unit when the war in Iraq began last year.

Well, in a way, he is doing just that :)
The opposite of war is not peace. The opposite of war is absence of conflict. Peace is something temporary you get once the kids have gone off to grandma's for the night. Yet, the "conflict" of your life remains (bills, job, relationships, money problems, etc.) As long as there are repressive dictatorships, there will be no "peace." And you can't just send them off to grandma's for the night.
I totally agree with you!
Do not forget "senile"!
911? Is the Snow ball effect from his impotence during the Iran affair! Look for more 911 if a change of government is made in the U.S.
Jimmah Carter is the reason the terrorism and 911 happened
He is one of the Founding Fathers due to his ineptness and I dont care how many houses he built..... 3000 innocent people are dead on American Shores due to his ass licking.
"Mattie burst into uncontrollable sobs and grief," Carter said, and soon after, the former president received a letter from his then-12-year-old friend: "I feel like Mohammed Atta and Saddam Hussein made a decision long ago about the war," Mattie wrote. "Imagine if they had spent as much time and energy . . . planning peace."
Yeah, just like Neville Chamberlain.
It is scary how liberals use naive children as role models.

If Peanut farmer had acted stronger during the Iran hostage crisis the Iranians would not be running against the clock to develop the BOMB. Now the world is trying to run against the clock...Look for more 911 x 100
President Bush is planning peace, but sometimes it takes a war to do it -- to keep the warmongers from interrupting OUR peace again.
Otherwise, we might be writing our letters in Arabic one day.
Carter has always had an inflated view of his own importance. The fact that he used a boy's funeral to trumpet his foolishness shouldn't be much of a surprise. He had no sense, tact, or integrity while President. He hasn't changed. Every day in every way he gets worse.
Jimmy Carter is a small man who never forgave his country for voting him out of office. Ever since then, he's been consciously or unconsciously working on behalf of our enemies.
And the presence of justice. If there's no justice, it's just tyranny and oppression.
Thanks for the great post.
I heard President Carter speak at an optometry convention in New Orleans. He began by praising Cuba for their free education and free health care and then parenthetically added "Of course they don't have freedom". He then went on to talk down to the optometrists and chided them for not providing free vision screening for pre-schoolers - typical nanny-state mindset. And of course he had to toot his own horn about the wonderful Carter Center. He's such a humanitarian.
OH that powerhouse of Leadership boycotted the OLYMPICS what a guy what a guy
That is one of the things that dumbfounds me. I've lost count of the number of times I read a post by a leftist who is bragging about how advanced their child is for understanding an issue the same way they do. Not once do they consider that it is their own ideas that are on the level of children.
Typical leftists: use the death of another person as a stepping stone to further their cause. This is why the left is so enamored of body counts. They see each one not as a tremendous loss, a loss to someone's family, but as one more notch to getting back into power.
I hope you meant sarcastic in your last sentence
Exactly
Why should I listen to a crappy president or a kid who wrote crappy poetry. Sorry, but his poems were crap and the only reason he became famous is because of a) his Muscular Distrophy and b) Oprah.
Nothing personal against the kid, but he never stood on the West-East German border and wondered if the tanks were coming. In ten years, he might have thought differently. But, the UN flag on his coffin said it all.
Didn't anyone tell you not to do the brown acid?
