Jimmy Carter said universities with substantial Jewish enrollment have blocked him from discussing his book “Palestine: Peace not Apartheid.”
“My most troubling experience has been the rejection of my offers to speak, for free, about the book on university campuses with high Jewish enrollment and to answer questions from students and professors,” Carter said in an Op-Ed published Friday in the Los Angeles Times. The former U.S. president made a similar charge in a C-Span interview earlier this week; asked to elaborate, he would not name the universities, except to say he was invited by individual professors, but turned down by the universities’ leadership.
Carter’s book, which blames most of the impasse in Israeli-Palestinian peace talks on Israel’s settlement policy, is a New York Times No. 1 bestseller, and he has promoted it in multiple media appearances.
Well, that's a keeper. And thank you for your service as a NYC Cabbie. It must be tough!
Oh God, you have no idea...It isn`t really tough, but just laughable. After a while it gets funny with the yelling. In a lot of ways it`s the greatest job in the world, but in more ways than one NYC cabbies are nothing more than punching bags for the liberati of the city.
Illegals if you can believe it are the least trouble mainly because the majority of them are conservative, especially the Mexicans. Why? Because they have lived under the kind of bull shiet liberals want for this country and they will literally stomp any who promotes that crap. I tell you, a lot of them feel really bad about being illegal but they really don`t have a choice, don`t have the time to wait to be legal. They can afford the legal process but they need cash now to support their families, they can`t wait years that`s how bad it is down there. But that`s another story.
Anyway, I had one liberal psycho on the east side the other day I picked up on Park avenue after his doorman hailed me (it`s always the east side for some reason..It is NOT the West side!!!! And Ann Coulter lives on the east side, go figure!) literally trying to grab my steering wheel because I got him so nuts with my support of the war on terror. He literally thought the only reason we are over there was to enrich Haliburton and Bush, and he just would not admit that Radical Islam was a constant threat.
It`s amazing isn`t it? Two attacks in less than a decade in his own city, yet liberals like this still live in this fantasy world that Bush is the evil one.
I asked him to recite for me the Presidential oath of office, to tell me exactly what part of it he didn`t understand and he couldn`t, so I told him he had no idea what the hell he was talking about. So the effin` freggin` psycho that he is jumps through my partition, grabs my steering wheel and tried to get me to pull over. "YOU PULL OVER THE HELL OVER AND LET ME THE HELL OUT OF HERE YOU SOB!!!I`LL KILL YOU!" This bald bastard literally almost made me crash.
I just can`t wait till one of them screws me up, hurts me, because the way I see it, they can afford to pay $3000- $10,000 a month rent or $3000 a month maintainence on a $10 mill condo to live in Manhattan, that means they can afford to pay me when I sue the living hell out of them.
Liberals can never debate. They always get enraged when you burst their ideological bubble. One day I`m going to rent one of those tiny cameras and film this, you just would not believe the crap I have to listen to everyday.
I had that guy Moby in my taxi last year, and can you believe he would not say ONE SINGLE WORD to me?? He shut up like a clam who just swallowed crazy glue. Yet you look at his website and this dude has pages and pages and pages of opinions on GW Bush and Iraq and the WOT. That`s the thing about liberals, they just will not debate. Even their God Hellary will not debate. She will avoid all direct questions like Ted Kennedy to abstinence.
I understand what you're saying, but there are Jewish students, plenty, on every campus. He's just saying this to manipulate the situation. What a publicity whore he is.
Finally. What goes around is coming around for Carter. Expect to see him playing the "victim" next.
Jimmy should beg that war criminal Bob Kerry to let him speak at The New School in NY. Kerry just provided that fake Indian, Ward Leroy Churchill a forum.
Gang of rats.
See Post #11
Has he tried Howard University?
How about Harvard? I hear it's Saudi property now.
Has anyone seen a transcript of the caller's comments? I was rolling on the floor laughing...the lady had it exactly right.
It has been rewarding to see that Carter has been roundly condemned for his lying, plagerizing, and stupid position as described in his book.

This guy rivals Hutton Gibson in the Jewhatred Dept.
Sounds like he's joined the "Jews run the world" club. Disgusting man.
Blame it on the Jews, Jimmy!
Oh, I forgot. He's speaking here in Pasadena (California) this week. I got an email notice from the bookstore, replied with one word -- 'UCK.' I'd like to sneak by and see if anyone comes, although we do have a wad of old hippies here in the area. I'm sure the liberal Episkies from the big church here will be there.
That's not plagiarism - that's academic fraud, and it's what Ward Churchill was finally nailed on. Jimmy has finally fornicated the canine w.r.t. his leftist academic supporters.
IMO, Carter is just a mean old man on the verge of senile dementia, looking over his past failures and blaming everyone except himself.
