Jimmy Carter Hopes 'Venezuelans Mourn the Passing of President Chávez and Recall His Positive
Weekly Standard ^ | 3/5/13 | Daniel Halper

Posted on 03/05/2013 7:48:15 PM PST by Nachum

Former President Jimmy Carter released the following statement on the passing of Hugo Chavez:

"Rosalynn and I extend our condolences to the family of Hugo Chávez Frías. We met Hugo Chávez when he was campaigning for president in 1998 and The Carter Center was invited to observe elections for the first time in Venezuela. We returned often, for the 2000 elections, and then to facilitate dialogue during the political conflict of 2002-2004. We came to know a man who expressed a vision to bring profound changes to his country to benefit especially those people who had felt neglected and marginalized. Although we have not agreed with all of the methods followed by his government, we have never doubted Hugo Chávez's commitment to improving the lives of millions of his fellow countrymen.

I still recall the election night when Reagan whipped this moron’s butt. It was the most fun I had in years.

Like all libs, Carter thinks it is OK to steal from some people to give to others, even if the thug keeps most of it for himself and his cronies. Chavez and his ilk fool the poor and ignorant to gain power. They are evil.

Everytime he says stuff like this it just reaffirms my first vote to send him packing back to Plains and to start to save America by electing Reagan. Sadly, we now need another Reagan.

that they all worship an evil genocidal socialist dictator like Chavez who murdered so many people and who enslaved so many people, and took their opportunity to make a living and money and freedom away

Jimma Carter: “I wish I would have had hugo’s example. Thank God obama had his example on how to use ‘executive orders’ to make the Presidency the dictatorship it should be.”

The day that Jimmuh joins Hugo is the day America can finally get relief from this moron! It seems that the only time Jimmuh is happy is when he is bad mouthing the USA or applauding it’s enemies. A sad twisted little, little man!

In other words, Carter reaffirms his designation as the country’s most clueless dope.

I used to think Carter was a nice well meaning incompetent liberal. The more I see of him, the more I realize he has a very dark heart.

Hey Jimmuh and all the other apologists. Remember the positive? How do you live with yourselves?

Skewerd increase numbers in education levels and morbidity rate vs the plundering of the oil industry, shipping ports running supplies 30 to 45 days late. Wages that even China would be embarrassed to admit. Enough murder, rape and plundering through out the land to make Obama Land look like Disneyland.

The only positive I can think of is . . . finally, he is gone! That nightmare has ended.
