The Real Jimmy Carter
FrontPageMagazine.com ^ | April 27, 2007 | Alan M. Dershowitz

Posted on 04/27/2007 9:09:33 PM PDT by bnelson44

I have met cigarette lobbyists, who are supported by the cigarette industry, and who have come to believe honestly that cigarettes are merely a safe form of adult recreation, that cigarettes are not addicting and that the cigarette industry is really trying to persuade children not to smoke. These people are fooling themselves (or fooling us into believing that they are fooling themselves) just as Jimmy Carter is fooling himself (or persuading us to believe that he is fooling himself).

If money determines political and public views as Carter insists "Jewish money" does, Carter's views on the Middle East must be deemed to have been influenced by the vast sums of Arab money he has received. If he who pays the piper calls the tune, then Carter's off-key tunes have been called by his Saudi Arabian paymasters. It pains me to say this, but I now believe that there is no person in American public life today who has a lower ratio of real to apparent integrity than Jimmy Carter. The public perception of his integrity is extraordinarily high. His real integrity, it now turns out, is extraordinarily low. He is no better than so many former American politicians who, after leaving public life, sell themselves to the highest bidder and become lobbyists for despicable causes. That is now Jimmy Carter's sad legacy.

“Recent disclosures of Carter’s extensive financial connections to Arab oil money, particularly from Saudi Arabia,...”

I’m confused as I thought it was common knowledge that Carter was accepting monies from the Saudi’s even during his misAdministration.

Not that Carter doesn't deserve it mind you.

He’s been on Carter for a while. He’s a staunch supporter of Israel.

Yep and he is a Jew hater too in my opinion. The Bible syas he is cursed for bartering away Israel's Land with its enemies.

Jimmy “I’m going to f**k the Jews” Carter, a bought and paid for agent of Arab tyrants. I can honestly say that this is shocking news that I would have never seen coming in a hundred years./sarcasm

They usually don’t start with the Old Chief either.

“The Carter MisAdministration”

I like it! You, sir, have added to the language!

Four years were never more perfectly summed up. Bravo!

Seems that the article has been pulled. The link isn’t working properly, but I managed to save the text from cash. Anyone want a copy?
