Speaking of terrorists...let’s take a look at Hamas:

Carter is a looney. I saw the clip of him on the “Today” show yesterday, shrugging off the notion that Hamas was a terrorist organization.
Kook.
Such a vapid, corrupt little man.
If peace came to the Middle East, whatever would he do to get the attention he so desperately wants?
Whenever I hear liberals singing his praises, I don’t think of his failed presidency, his despicable anti-Israeli position, his working with Arafat to craft speeches with which to dupe the west, his telling the Soviets they’d better hope he won re-election over Reagan...well, ok, I guess I do think of all that... ;)
But I ALWAYS think of this:
Carter won the governorship of Georgia in 1970 via a race-baiting campaign. In his 2004 book The Real Jimmy Carter, Steven Hayward writes that Carter’s campaign staff sent an anonymous mailer “to barbershops, country churches, and rural law enforcement officers containing a grainy photo of [his Democratic opponent Carl] Sanders, part owner of the Atlanta Hawks NBA franchise, at an after-game locker room victory celebration. Two black players were pouring champagne over Sanders’s head. The Atlanta Constitution noted, ‘In the context of the sports pages, it was a routine shot ... But in the context of this political campaign it was a dangerous smear that injected both race, alcohol, and high living into the campaign.’ Carter’s senior campaign aides Bill Pope, Hamilton Jordan, and Jerry Rafshoon were behind the mailing; Pope was even spotted passing out the flyers at a Ku Klux Klan rally ... The Carter campaign also produced a leaflet noting that Sanders had paid tribute to Martin Luther King, Jr.

In April 1976, however, a glimpse of the old Carter shone through when he answered a question about integration issues, blurting out, “I see nothing wrong with ethnic purity being maintained.” According to Hayward, the NY Daily News buried the quote in a jump paragraph that picked up on page 134.

Later, in the late 1980s, notes Hayward, “Carter kept in touch with the PLO through the Carter Center’s Palestinian financial backers.” (Other backers include notorious Saudi arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi, the Sultan of Oman, and the Saudi bin Laden Group.) The author quotes Carter biographer Douglas Brinkley: “’Carter began the long process of trying to persuade Arafat to make statements that would be regarded as responsible in the United States,’” and eventually wrote the PLO leader a long letter “outlining a speech Arafat should give for Western consumption.”
When Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait in 1991, Carter wrote in the New York Times that the whole war could be avoided if only Israel would withdraw from the West Bank. Because Arafat also sided with Hussein and therefore lost financial support from other Arab leaders, Carter flew to Saudi Arabia for what Brinkley described as “essentially a fund-raising mission for the PLO.”

Carter has quoted Martin Luther King, but Dr. King would tell him what he told a student at Harvard who criticized Zionism: “When people criticize Zionists, they mean Jews. You’re talking anti-Semitism.”

until the Jews would put themselves in the gas chamber, they can not have peace.
You Yanks may wish to consider drafting and implementing “The Carter Law”. The thrust of said proposed law should be this:
“1) Ex-Presidents, in exchange for Valuable Consideration (the sum and sufficiency of which is hereby mutually accepted) agree to retire into Relative Obscurity upon leaving the White House at the end of their term of service.
2) Valuable consideration comprises one million US dollars, continued protection provided by the Secret Service for the rest of the life of the ex-President and/or his Spouse, and exemption from all taxes of any sort for the rest of the life of the ex-President only
3) “Relative Obscurity” precludes the ex-President from engaging in any activity whatsoever that may put him or her in the position of acting as an official spokesperson for any person, organization, or cause. Specifically excluded from this provision is service on Boards, being the author of Books or musical recordings, or acting as an officer of a private company. Additional individual exemptions may be sought by application to the Attorney General who will consider such applications on a case-by-case basis.
4) Penalties for breaching the Carter Law shall be no more that 50 years in solitary confinement in a Federal penetentiary or a fine of $100 million US Dollars, or both.”
That would fix the Carter situation for once and all, as well as preclude Obama (or any subsequent President) from following Carter’s example.
LOL!
You don't understand something about our country--Democrats don't have to obey laws. (See our Treasury Secretary who didn't pay taxes, the former Clintonian advisor who stuffs documents down his pants and doesn'tdo time, our Secy of State who never paid any price for missing documents that showed up in her quarters with her fingerprints on them that proved she'd ruined the fortunes of retirees and others, etc.)
Aren't you glad I've given you this valuable tip? :)
It would really eliminate entire classes, and provide good entertainment.
Not a KOOK....just a TYPICAL DEMOCRAT!
Yep .... Read the last chapter ... the Devil did it and Israel wins ... !
> Aren’t you glad I’ve given you this valuable tip? :)
To say nothing of presidents who don’t have to prove that they are eligible to be presidents...
Are you sure duelling isn’t still accidentally part of your laws? I believe US law is based on British Common Law, true?
Duelling remained as an obscure part of British law until relatively recently.
And I agree: duelling would be an immense amount of fun: much more satisfying than taking perps to court.
Saudi Money for Harvard and Jimmy Carter
"Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, whose $10 million contribution was turned down by Rudy Giuliani in the days after the 9/11 attacks, is showering American colleges and political institutions (like the Jimmy Carter Center for Peace and the James Baker Institute) with multi-million dollar donations."
Conservative journalists and activists should also start taking a close look at the financial dealings of various academics and media figures.
He doesn’t need a birth certificate, he was never born, he descended on a cloud.
So Jimmy Carter has taken to passing along Hamas threats - isn’t there a law against that?
Carter,one of America’s biggest catastrophes.
“Jimmy has forgotten his Bible. Jimmy is an idiot”
I never thought he was much of a president, but I did think he was a good man. Now I think he listens too much to “the man from God knows where”.
