Isn't that truth!
He's just window dressing. They give him house room to write a column once in awhile, but nobody listens to anything he says.
The AJC will go on attacking Bush, denigrating Israel, and supporting America's enemies.
“Carter has changed,” wrote Konner. “Something has happened to his judgment. I don’t understand what it is, but I know it is very dangerous.” He wrote too: “[Carter] has become a spokesman for the enemies of my people. He has become an apologist for terrorists.”
But, as I said on another thread, Carter has not changed. He is just as he always has been. He has always stood up for tyrants and terrorists, and he has always been an antisemite.
The only difference is that he just went an eensie-weensie tiny bit too far, and crossed some invisible line in the sand. So, now all his allies have suddenly turned their backs on him and denied him. It's a spectacle of hypocrisy of the first water. But I can't help enjoying it.
When his book came out, it was well enough received at first. It was just another instance of Jimmy-speak. But then he crossed the line. I think it was when he expressed admiration for the Holocaust Denial Conference in Teheran. All of a sudden, all his old buddies dissociated themselves from him, turned a cold shoulder, ostracized him. Schadenfreude of the first water.
Jimahs peanut brain done gone around da bend on dis one.
I wonder how Carter changed. He sold out Isreal when he was president, so I fail to see the difference.
The Carter Center was built with Arab money and has been supported throughout by Arab money. Where have all these people been?
. . . but in the past he has disguised himself very well. He seems to be unable to disguise his hatred in platitudes now.
I think the poster up thread is right . . . he's had some medical event that has affected his judgment and discretion.
Konner, the Samuel Dobbs Professor of Anthropology at Emory and the author of “Unsettled: An Anthropology of the Jews,” wrote as much in a powerful AJC op-ed just before Christmas. “Carter has changed,” wrote Konner. “Something has happened to his judgment. I don’t understand what it is, but I know it is very dangerous.”
Are these from 1977?
Liberals are very much like lemmings. They copy what they hear all the other liberals around them saying. So, Carter was good as long as everyone who was anyone said he was good. Then, suddenly, there were murmurings of doubt, and the next thing you know, everyone who was anyone was saying that Carter was evil.
It happened very recently, and it has only snowballed over the last week or so.
When his book came out, it was generally well received. He was still Jimmy Carter the liberal hero, patron of the peace process. That was about ten days ago. Now he is a villain to everyone. I think the only thing that changed is the perception. With liberals, it's all perception and going with the flow. That is what has changed.
I think over the last 5 years or so he has gotten noticeably nastier. The liberals are late to the party (as usual), but I think there really is something that has changed over that time. It just finally got too bad for them to ignore.
One of the first signs of senile dementia is a decrease in inhibitions, and it's progressive. So some of us were noticing a few years ago, others have only noticed now, when he's gotten really bad.
Yes, that's certainly true of conservatives. I used to think he was just stupid, before I decided he was basically evil. What's interesting is the way the liberals have now turned on him, like a pack of dogs, all within about a week or two.
It was OK when he said I'manutjob was within his rights to threaten to nuke the evil Israelis, but for some reason it was not OK when he gave his seal of approval to I'manutjob's Holocaust Denial Party. That crossed some sort of line in the liberal sand. Maybe it was the Hitler connection.
Both our theories may be true. IOW, in the past he had sense enough not to touch that Third Rail . . .
I must admit, my first reaction was, how can people get so angry about Holocaust denial but completely ignore the threat to annihilate Israel. That was then, and this is now. Hitler is dead.
But that seems to be the way the liberal mind works, and who am I to question it? I agree that Holocaust denial is ugly. It's just that, to me, the idea of annihilating all the Jews in Israel as soon as they can get a few bombs put together, a present threat, is even uglier.
There's a strong strain of anti-Semitism in modern American liberalism, though. I think they use their emphasis on the Shoah to provide cover for their current attacks on Israel and on Jews who do not toe the party liberal line.
"We have one permanent friend in the region and that is Israel."
I think we'd be a better friend just letting nature take it's course in the Middle East, with Israel getting pushed into a corner and unleashing it's nuclear arsenal to the long-term benefit of itself and the United States. Right now all our policies do is restrain Israel until the exploding Muzzie population surrounding them gets so large they won't have enough conventional/nuclear weapons to stop them.
Israeli Moon Purchases Denounced
Jan. 12, 2007
Last December over one thousand Israelis purchased land on the moon. The price of each one-eighth-acre plot of land is about $60. Each buyer gets an ownership certificate and a photographed map of the purchased area. So far some 55.5 million acres of land on the moon have been sold to people all over the world.
Daniel Yaron, CEO of Crazyshop, the company which markets moon property in Israel, said that the typical rationale for such a purchase is as a “gag gift.” “It makes for an unusual gift for those ‘hard-to-buy-for’ friends and relatives,” Yaron explained.
Yaron’s explanation was denounced as “Zionist lies” by Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. “People laughed when I tried to warn of the Jews’ plan for world domination,” Ahmadinejad said. “I hope this news awakens them to the encroaching dangers Jews present to our world. Not only are they plotting to dominate the Earth, but they’ve set their eyes on other planets, as well. They must be wiped off the face of the Earth before they succeed in their evil plan.”
In Pakistan, rioting and looting broke out in Lahore, as angry mobs shouted “death to the Jews.” Ameer ul-Azeem, spokesman for the Mutahida Majlis-e-Amal, an Islamist movement the country declared the purchases “offensive to Muslims.” “Jews know very well that the moon has great significance to Muslims,” ul-Azeem complained. “The moon is on our flag and the flags of many brother Muslim lands. Land on the moon is Muslim land. The Jews are deliberately insulting us—it’s like they are rubbing pork in our wounds.”
Former president Jimmy Carter declared that this latest revelation validates everything he said in his book (“Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid”) about the Jewish quest for world hegemony. “The Jewish lust for land is greater than I thought,” Carter claimed. “When I wrote about the Israeli apartheid regime I thought it applied only in Palestine, but apparently, the Jews intend to extend their hegemony to the moon.”
Carter insisted that more personal diplomacy is needed to calm the region. “I’ve seen photos of President Bush holding hands with Saudi Arabia Crown Prince Abdullah,” Carter said. “This is a good start, but he must go further. I kissed Arafat. Bush needs to do at least as much. In today’s more intense relationship he may need to be even more receptive to input from the heads of state in the region and be ready to go all the way for the sake of peace. I know that’s what I would do if I were the president.”
In related news, 14 more academics resigned from the “Carter Center” in response to his book, calling it the “malicious babblings of a senile nincompoop.” Carter shrugged off the criticism. “Every one of them is a Jew,” Carter asserted. “Need I say more? The evidence of a Zionist conspiracy couldn’t be clearer. Ahmadinejad doesn’t sound so crazy now, I bet?”

I really think Carter has had something similar happen to him like multiple TIA's that have effected his brain.
