Sorry, bub, you're going to have to take second place to me in your disdain for Carter.

I claimed the spot first! You wait your turn you line jumper you!

Okay, back on message: Jimmy Carter and OBL, the connection.

The connection is this: between the two, there isn't much to choose. Both agree that if it hates GWB, it can't possibly be all bad.

And Saudi Arabia is a terrible place to raise a family.

(Fireproof suit on)

Agreed, agreed, and agreed. That does not mean, however, that Jimmy Carter is taking money from Osama bin Laden.

To call Jimmy Carter scum would be to insult scum, which after all cannot help being slimy and disgusting. But when I attack my political enemies, I prefer to do so with true allegations. Hurling bogus claims like the one hurled here does nothing but harm one's own credibility. Especially when the accusation is one which can so easily be reversed, as by pointing out the close ties the bin Ladens have with politicians other than Carter. If you claim that having connections with the bin Laden family involves being in Osama's pocket, you've just smeared a lot of your allies.

Now I'm interested. Tell me more about good and bad bin Ladens. Like, how do they feel about each other and how they intend to back up their opinions of one another?

Sure. The bin Laden family owns a company (the bin Laden Group) that is one of the world's largest construction firms, grossing over five billion dollars per year. The patriarch of the family, Mohammed bin Laden, spawned over 50 children, one of whom was Osama. The family and the company definitely tilt pro-Western; they're fairly modern and secular, at least as far as Arabs go. Osama is truly the black sheep; in 1994 the Saudi government revoked his citizenship and the family publically disowned him.

Unless the plan is to eventually kill every single Muslim on the face of the planet, we'll need friends there. The bin Laden family is about as friendly as we can hope to find. It's not right to smear the entire gigantic clan because one of its sons is an asshole, especially when the entire gigantic family cast him out long before most Americans had even heard of him.

Michael Moore tried to use those bin Laden connections to smear the Bushes, his target audience being the ignorant who didn't know any better. I refuse to stoop to his level. So should everybody else.

Excellent point.

But we can still all disdain Jimmuh for what he really DOES and SAYS.

all is forgiven, Carter is really jsut a preecr! he lives in an illusionary world much like that teacher that married the 13yr old she raped! she doesn't think she did anything wrong either. she was on Larry King jive talk tonight , and noticed in all her comments, she is convinced she has a normal, happy family now, ah, but what about all the pain she caused others, not a word of it, to her, finding "love" is no1...........who knows, Castro and the commie element may have fooled Carter into thinking he was an important political leader........eeeek!

True. However, it is perfectly valid to point out that if Michael Moore was being intellectually honest, he would have to label Carter a Bin Laden sympathizer like he did Bush. In the limiting confines of that argument, there's room for discussion.

Still basking in the limelight of Fahrenheit 9/11 during the 2004 Democratic National Convention, the Carters hosted Michael Moore in the presidential viewing box, while ex-President Bill Clinton addressed the flock.

If Carter had any shame or humility whatsoever then he wouldn't have been caught dead within a hundred miles of Moore.

It's stunning that many people actually believe that the man is a bona fide Christian. The man stands for just about everything that is anti-God, anti-good, and pro-evil.

look at all this digging up in a war! the whole city of Dresden was bombed! we let off two atomic bombs in japan, eeek, I can see now why Michael Savage says to bomb the Sunni Triangle, etc. , as a Catholic, I do not support war, I don't advocate it, unless it is for self defense, and how long are we going to let the insurgents breed this evil in that area? It is for self defense now and for the future of the people there, but I have to back off and not promote it, so I have to do the only thing I can, pray and pray for our troops.....it is China, CHINA, the godless country who is building up its military, Iraq geopolitically is why I think we went in there, but the Pres. won't say it, it would cause too much panic. It is a war with China, and it's coming.

It goes without saying that you'll never read or hear about this in the "drive-by media".

if anyone cares to know, Maslow named three different body types, endomorphic, ectomorphic, and masomorphic(or something like it) anyway, I saw Franken walking in, and later, out, of Lund's store in Mpls. last week, sorry , but his bodilyproportions are out of line, looking bulllegged with baggy pants, short waisted so his pants look big etc. , the way he walks, well, I just can't imagine how he would look out of the helicopter, bending over to greet his dog, and walking across the grounds, not, Presidential material I would have to say....sad sack maybe, cartoons, yes!

If Michael Moore was being intellectually honest, he would have to label Carter a bin Laden sympathizer. And if my grandmother had balls, she'd be my grandfather. As long as we're considering ludicrous hypotheticals with absolutely no basis in reality, we might as well consider this one.

Pointing out Michael Moore's intellectual inconsistency makes shooting fish in a barrel look like a challenge.

Well, then, contact the mod and have him pull the original article. Or don't.
