In spite of everything else the old socialist bastard was, he was for any thing that he thought was a give-away program.
I assure you of one thing, I have absolutely no regard for Jimmah Cottah; I think he's a socialist pinko and I still can't believe he was a nuclear officer in the US Navy.
For that matter, I can't see how the hell he ever got elected as Prez, since no one I've talked to since will admit to voting for him.
[ The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: 12/11/03 ]Carter: Miller's Senate appointment was 'mistake'
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON -- Former President Jimmy Carter says the appointment of Georgia's Zell Miller to the Senate was a mistake because his fellow ex-governor "betrayed all the basic principles that I thought he and I and others shared."
The comments, which Carter made Wednesday on the radio program FOX News Live with Alan Colmes, are the latest in a string of attacks prominent Democrats have made lately concerning the maverick senator who has endorsed President Bush's re-election and penned a new book arguing his party is out of touch with the South.
When Colmes asked Carter about Miller, the former president first said, "I would rather not even comment about Zell Miller on the radio," then proceeded to call the appointment "one of the worst mistakes" then-Democratic Gov. Roy Barnes made in his four years in office.
If I recall correctly (and I was watching closely for selfish reasons obviously) he changed positions at the last minute when it was clear how the Congress was going to go. I wasn't the only one in the Navy who got the impression he was against it as evidenced by the reaction of the crew on the aircraft carrier who had to listen politely to that loser. Everyone I know in Norfolk was talking about the nerve of that FOOL the next day.
I am a little bitter as you can see.
I was stationed in Atlanta GA for 3 years and never ran into anybody that would admit to voting for him for Gov let alone Pres.
