Obama May Get Carter’s Support

Former President of the United States, Jimmy Carter has hinted that he might cast his vote for Senator Barack Obama to aid his emergence as the candidate for the Democrats in America’s bid to elect a new President. Carter, who is a Super Delegate from Georgia State, gave this hint at a media interaction after the Carter Center Awards for Guinea Worm Eradication in Abuja yesterday. Carter, who was accompanied by his wife Rosalynn, did not profess a direct support for Obama but rather choose to make a veiled statement. “We are very interested in the primaries. Don’t forget that Obama won in my state of Georgia. My town which is home to 625 people is for Obama, my children and their spouses are pro- Obama. My grandchildren are also pro- Obama. As a Super Delegate, I would not disclose who I am rooting for but I leave you to make that guess," he said.

Jimmy Carter supports Obamma Lamma Ding Dong?
Boy oh boy, that sure makes all the difference in my book.

Jimmuh never met a communist he couldn’t support.

It must have been tough for him this time, since he had two communists to choose from.

Stands to reason, though, that he would chose the most communistic of the two.

Carter must be passing the torch to a new generation of ineffectual Democratic leadership ... and just in time for the next major recession. Obama = Carter 2?

Jimmuh's so decisive!

No one can blame HIM for waiting to see which way the wind is blowing!

I guess Hillary’s FJB statement didn’t carry enough weight with Carter.

What IS surprising about this is why is anyone SURPRISED??

If Obama makes it to the White House, we'll see MASSIVE repeats of the following actions during the Carter years.

During the Carter years, at Carter's urging, Senator Frank Church held hearings on the operation of the CIA and found that -- HORRORS -- taxpayer money was being paid to any foreign citizen snitches who had CRIMINAL RECORDS for vital human, on-the-ground intel on the activities of those who were planning the destruction of this country. Church commented at one session that "Gentlemen do not read other gentlemens’ mail." Interesting how Church and his fellow Dimocraps viewed men who would destroy America “gentlemen.” Glad that a**hole didn't serve during the run-up to WWII. (Although he may have handled the "delayed" communication to Pearl Harbor that the Japanese were on the way!)

The sorts of people who consort with -- and, more importantly, get cozy with -- the leaders of terrorist organizations are not normally choir boys. Church moved the legislature to PROHIBIT any US funds going to these potential informants. Since it can take upwards of 20 years for these guys to move close enough to the top to be seriously valuable, we had virtually NO humintel on bin Laden's plans for 9-11!

While there are still Church-like imbeciles (Reid, Pelosi, et come to mind) at the levers of power here, I THINK the law has been changed. (NOTE: It will almost certainly revert to its previous status should Obama make it.)

While the NSA wiretaps and eavesdrops on US citizens HERE, isn't it comforting to know that in just 15 or 20 years we may be able to thwart a plan hatched THERE for some future 9-11 with information gathered THERE.

Anybody else see a pattern here?
