Jimmy Carter Repeats MSNBC’s “Bury Obama With Kennedy” Lie

It wasn't enough for former President Jimmy Carter to falsely accuse critics of Barack Obama of being racists; now he's added a blood libel. Carter reiterated his belief that all disagreements with Obama are "based on the fact that he is a black man" Tuesday. Last night MSNBC's Keith Olbermann thanked Carter for rendering this "service" during a forum in Atlanta, where Carter said:

The outbursts that we see of this scatalogical language -- the sign that I saw on television last night "We should bury Obama with Kennedy," for instance (audible gasps in the audience)...Those kind of things are not just casual outcomes of a sincere debate of whether we should have anational program of health care or not.
There's one small problem with the sign Carter "saw on television last night" with his own eyes: it's an urban legend. As I noted on this blog Tuesday, the sign misquoted by numerous left-wing commentators actually says, "Bury ObamaCare with Kennedy." On Monday night, Olbermann's colleague, Ed Schultz, had the audacity to "read" the message as "Bury Obama with Kennedy" while showing a full-screen shot of the actual sign.

Apparently the Democratic talking points have gone out, because in addition to Schultz and Carter, James Carville misquoted the sign on Monday's edition of CNN's Anderson Cooper 360. Calling the protesters "very low class" (way to stand with the downtrodden, Jim), he claimed 9/12 protesters marched with a sign that said, "Bury Barack Obama with Kennedy." He further alleged, "a senior CNN executive...told me two hours ago there were thousands of them; other people have confirmed that. They were printed; they were passed out."

His co-panelist, sometime Republican David Gergen, promptly...

Anyone else watch Glenn Beck last night when he pointed out how MSNBS lied about whitey extremists carrying assault weapons at the recent town meetings?

MSNBS showed a close up of a person with an assault weapon, but when they panned back, the person was black.

Carter is an old fool. And eveyone knows that Dummies lie as a mark of their character.
Crazy K just got ole Carter to spread the Kos Kids filth for him. He probably told Carter this and Carter spouted it as if KO would tell the truth.

Jimmah is a dolt. The mere fact that the communist democrats are using him to speak for them is proof they are desperate liars.

as for “scatological” - who branded protesters as “teab*ggers” and brought to light a deviant practice that few people even knew about?

They’re reaching - they’re on the ropes and know it.

Even Obama is probably disgusted to have Jimmy so publicly on his side.

I’m beginning to think that Jimmy Carter is losing his marbles.

I agree, David Gergen left the reservation a long time ago. In fact, when The One is forced to fire/replace some members of his senior staff due to his tanking poll numbers and his inability to get anything important through Congress, I think he’ll hire Gergen just like Clinton did during his first year in the WH.

"Ed Schultz, had the audacity to "read" the message as "Bury Obama with Kennedy" while showing a full-screen shot of the actual sign. "

I fully expect that one day we will read on the back page of some rag that Ed Schultz has been arrested for his involvement with Prostitutes (ACORN Certified) or Child Pornography.

The racism charge is pretty rich coming from Carter, who campaigned for governor of Georgia as a self-proclaimed “redneck” whose campaign distributed a photo of gubernatorial opponent Carl Sanders being embraced by black basketball players to a Ku Klux Klan rally; who pledged to invite George Wallace to Georgia; and who said he was “proud” to have Lester Maddox as his lieutenant governor in 1970, calling him “the essence of the Democratic Party.” (Which he was.) In 1972, he promised – then broke his promise – to the newly crippled Wallace to nominate or second him at the 1972 Democratic National Convention.

As President, Jimmy “lusted” in his heart. Now he just lusts for attention. Holding him up to those of us who lived thru his debacle as President only galvanizes opposition to Obamas agenda. May he have many years to espouse his bitterness. That is my hope, that is my desire, that is my prayer.

No he is not. He is distracting us from the real story of 0bama signing his own self up for the U.N. going to the U.N. summit and selling us out after he renders all missle shields null and void creating WW3.

Think about it...

These fools, (Soro’s 0bama,Rahm et al) are so full of pure communistic, egotistic power; they really think the world will ALL sing kumbaya with them in global unity.

This is what Satan does with Scripture. Changes the words and twists the meaning.

Actually, that's really good. Any viewer that was watching the show could see that Schultz was lying about the sign.

I've always thought Ann Coulter's description of Carter in "Treason" was superbly accurate:

"Carter is so often maligned for his stupidity, it tends to be forgotten that he is also self-righteous, vengeful, sneaky and backstabbing."
