BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Former President Jimmy Carter said on Friday the "atrocious economic policies" of the Bush administration had caused the worst global financial crisis since the Great Depression of the 1930s.
Carter told reporters on a stopover in Brussels that "profligate spending," massive borrowing and dramatic tax cuts since President George W. Bush took office in 2001 were behind the market turmoil and economic crisis.

Actually peanut we can thank YOU for CRA!
No nerve from this idiot, just typical bullshite. THIS is the jerk who started the whole mess with the CRA of 1979!
Yeah, he was such a financial genius at the end of the ‘70’s, we should all listen to him! /s
Yeah, that’s the problem Jimmy. He have too much money in our pockets.
What a maroon.
You can ALWAYS count on Jimmy.
To bash our nation and our sitting President from abroad.
Putz
I will get banned saying what I really think of this senile has-been.

Unfortunately, most of these young Obama supporters aren’t old enough to remember the economic policies of this buffoon. Also, notice how the Democrats never mention any specific policies? Just once I’d like to see the MSM ask “Oh yeah? Which policies specifically?”
That would be the same thing as asking them what Obama means by change.
Carter is the idiot who gave us double digit inflation and double digit interest rates, yet he continues to mouth off against current presidents. The guy has no class whatsoever.
Jimmuh Cottah's headstone will have the same inscription as the Kennedys:
Here in his last lying performance is _________________.
Dance first, then piss.
Peanut boy had no sense when he was playing Pres. and he sure doesn’t have any now....
Only difference between now and then was Mama was there when he was Pres. and she isn’t here to control his peanut brain today....
This from the architect of 20% Inflation rates, gas shortages, Prime Rate at 20% and on and on? Carter should STFU, period!
Carter has a point, spending on expensive entitlements like medicare prescription drugs, expansions of medicaid and new educational entitlements under “no child left behind” have done nothing for the budget or the overall economy.
And that stuff was all signed by President Bush.
Economic advice (criticism) from Carter?
How about parenting advice from Brittany Spears?
The two things Carter shouldnt be talking about is economics and terrorism.
It truly hurts to hear an “Academy” grad called a buffoon but that is exactly what Carter has become.
