What are the odds of Carter having a seat, anywheres, at the 2008 Dem convention?

[ChadGore]

From the mind of jimma : The country failed abysmally in the presidential election process.

[Petronski]

"Well I would say that in the year 2000, the country failed abysmally in the presidential election process," Carter told a panel Monday at American University in Washington, D.C. "There's no doubt in my mind that Al Gore was elected president."

I am heading to work right now so real quick:

1 - The USSC did "vacate" the FSC decision to extend the deadline. It was a complete slap-down saying, in essence: we don't know how you got here. Then after the contests trial of Judge Sauls, the FSC reversed that decision, decided undervotes were to be tabulated not just in Gores chosen Demo counties but every county. All to be done in two days before the Dec. 12 federal deadline. The FSC didn't even address the vacating of their previous ruling and ignored essentially all the questions the USSC had in regards to the first decision.

But here is all you need to remember. There were two votes (dependent on the affirmative outcome of the first)- one to verify whether there had been equal protection violations and two whether there was time for a quick and accurate remedy. On the first the vote was 7-2 that there were equal protection violations. The much-quoted 5-4 decision is what finalized the victory for the president and rightfully so but the fact is it was truly a 7-2 decision that won the presidency for Bush.

As far as to a book - the best quick summary would be Bill Sammons "At Any Cost: How Al Gore Tried To Steal The Presidency"

All anyone has to do to shut this buffoon up; Ask him about how the KKK helped him get elected Governor of Ga.

That is known fact! Hell the history channel even did a show about it a few years ago.

I also once heard Jimmy Carter (on some biography show) say, that if the hostages had been released prior to the election, that he had "No doubt, in his mind", he would have been reelected.

Seems he forgot the rest of his Presidential failures!

Who really gives a flip what that bitter old fool thinks? So he spoke to a room full of academic elite airheads at American University. When it's all said and done, George W. Bush is in the White House, and Al Gore ain't.

And if Jimmah Cahtuh wants to talk about winning and losing, we can always discuss 1980.

[Lil'freeper]

Guess he's tired of His Slickness sucking up all the post-Prez oxygen.

He's stuck on malaise.

[Dan Walsh]

Has there ever in the USA history been a worse President than Jimmy Carter? In my mind the mess we are in currently in the Middle East was because of his wimpy response to the hostage taking in Iran during his term.

While Carter was the worst ever, Bush has only himself to blame over in the Middle East. He should of routed the terrorists out of Syria (and found the WMD's), He should of forced the Saudis and Kuwaitis into lower oil prices and he should of started some gas refineries.

[GatorGirl]

Great point! I'd love for President Bush to announce his candidacy for 2008 based on that reasoning. We could sit back and watch the libs' heads explode!

Or just expose the hypocrisy!

[pollyannaish]

This makes me sad. There is no civility in this country anymore...(if there ever was, but at least we pretended) and the ironic part is that we always get blamed.

[Coop]

Bush has only himself to blame over in the Middle East. He should of routed the terrorists out of Syria (and found the WMD's), He should of forced the Saudis and Kuwaitis into lower oil prices and he should of started some gas refineries.

Tell me, Dan. Does it require some type of surgery, or just very heavy doses of medication to come up with nonsense like that?

[Natural Law]

Two words to describe Carter - Senile Dementia. This is the same a$$hole who said that Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro won fairly too.

[SolidRedState]

Jimmy who?

[Mr. Jeeves]

This isn't funny. For a former President to make such divisive comments in the face of solid evidence to the contrary is an affront to the nation. Nixon had much more cause to make such complaints in 1960, but he set a dignified example and said nothing.

At best, Carter is an ass. At worst, a treasonous ass.

[bray]

President Goober is becoming as bad an ex-President as he was a President!

"Has there ever in the USA history been a worse President than Jimmy Carter?"

The "Worst President in History" title was formerly held by James Buchanan, whose bumbling lack of leadership in the late 1850's contributed in large part to the outbreak of the Civil War. Six months into his presidency Jimmy Carter had already taken the title for all time. Even Slick Willie at his very worst was better than Carter.

If, God forbid, we ever elect someone worse than Carter, we will be on the slippery slope to oblivion.

[Bear_Slayer]

hanks for the summary. I'll look for the book.

[OESY]

The real question is whether Jimmy Carter will ever
be able to beat back the moonbats in his belfry.
