I guess we shouldn’t be surprised at Carter’s clumsy remarks about Israel and Palestine.

First, the poor man attended Georgia public schools. Second, he grew up in a very narrow, close-minded, superstitious religious tradition where spreading superstitions and lies about Jews was commonplace.

Not too much of a chance for sophistication or enlightenment in either of those places, I’m afraid.

Then, he joined the Navy, he got to see the world, but mostly underwater in a submarine. I’ll venture to say there’s still not a lot of cultural diversity amongst the Navy submarine forces, and it was even worse in the 1950s when Jimmy was floating around. Then he goes back to the stultifying cultural atmosphere of Plains, and Georgia, and doesn’t leave until 1976.

He’s done very well to do as much as he has, especially given the strikes against him.

And I have to hand it to Jimmy. Unlike the vast majority of professed Christians, he does take the example of Christ seriously – you know, the stuff about helping the poor, loving one another, etc.

If more Christians were like him, the world would be a much better place.

Carry on, friends, and have a Happy and Peaceful New Year.

I thought ol’ Billy peed on the tarmac at the ATL, but I could be wrong.

Typical Georgian.

Well if Carter had any BALLS he’d go after the military industrial complex. But he doesn’t. Many Democrats deride the Republicans f0r playing the race card ect… but they’re doing the same thing: Mucking around in other countries’ affairs and taking sides, stirring up trouble, ect… And don’t get me started on Jimmy Carter apologizing. He’s the worst ever at this. Why did he have to go on national television simply to apologize for his brother Billie taking a whiz on a runway in Libya? Say what you will about Reagan but he never apologized.

For the first few lines I thought this was going somewhere hilarious, but this pretty much sums up the funny-quotient as I continued reading:

Steve, try picking up Karen Armstrong’s “Holy War.” Reading it can be a bit of a slog at times and there are probably better historical analyses out there, but it gives an interesting analysis of the roots of the conflict from the times of the Crusades, and how the Muslim, Christian, and Jewish faiths shape different perceptions of the conflict.

Running as blatantly racist a campaign as possible is still the best way to get elected state-wide in Georgia.

Karen Handel and V0ter ID (wink, wink – keep the coloreds from the polls)! She’s your gal, GOPers.

We know what motivates the southron GOP voter – xeno- femi- homo- and negrophobia.

DMZDave is absolutely correct. Carter ran a blatantly racist campaign for Governor back in 1970. If you have access to a newspaper archive, check out the Carter ads posted in the small rural newspapers.
