: Jimmy Carter 'Worst' in U.S. History

Former President Carter recently lashed out at the Bush
administration, calling it "the worst in history" in international
relations.

But Investor's Business Daily believes the "worst" label applies to
Carter.

In an editorial headlined "Carter: Our Worst Ex-President?" the
newspaper slams the ex-president for his book "Palestine: Peace Not
Apartheid," saying "Carter has deservedly been hammered for his
twisted anti-Israel beliefs. Now, his namesake Carter Center has been
rocked by the departure of a number of well-respected board members,
angry over the book."

Calling the book "a doozy," IBD says it is permeated with anti-Israel
bias. It also rips Carter for telling a "truly big whopper" in
claiming that the late Yasser Arafat, Hamas and others in the
Palestinian leadership are men of peace.

"This is an absurdity, by any stretch of the imagination. These are
men of terror, and should be treated as such," IBD says.

"Carter on page 62 recounts a meeting with Yasser Arafat in 1990. He
quotes Arafat, uncritically, saying: 'The PLO has never advocated the
annihilation of Israel.' Arafat blames the idea on 'Zionists.'

"Since Carter lets this lie go completely unchallenged, he must
believe it. In fact, the very reason for the PLO's founding was to
eliminate Israel. There are many other lies, large and small."

The editorial, which kicks off a 10-part series about Carter,
concludes:

"We're pretty sure Carter's reputation will remain in tatters, given
his anti-Israel diatribes. The peanut farmer from Georgia, once the
leader of the free world, now seems a very small man indeed."

The 10-part series also states:

"So Jimmy Carter calls the Bush administration "the worst in history."
This from the man who wrecked the world's greatest economy and made a
nuclear Iran and North Korea possible."

"When it comes to economic performance, there's no contest: Apart from
the early years of the Depression, Jimmy Carter's brief tenure as
president was the worst in the 20th century."

Carter will always be number 1 for allowing the Shah to be
overthrown. This fueled what we know today as Muslim extremism. Iraq
is close to a nuclear bomb. Bush has failed in Iraq but that pales in
comparison to a former President allowing a friend, like him or not,
to be overthrown. So Iran with a Nuke trumps the ***** ups of Bush in
Iraq anyday.
Carter - #1

H. Bush - #3

The article calls Carter the worst Ex-president, he is and will continue to
hold that title until 2009 when Bush takes over and will hopefully hold the
title for 1,000,000 years because if we have a worse president than
President *****-For-Brains then our country wont last another 50 years. Daddy
Bush is not in the bottom 25, he was not a bad president. Even though his
Kuwaitie masters called for his help and he used the US Military to pay back
his political debt by helping Kuwait, he still managed to gain World Support
and went in with a real coalition that shared in the liberation of Kuwait.
When it came time to push into Iraq, he did the correct thing and did not
overthrow Saddam because of this smart guy in his administration named *****
Cheney who said this in 1991:
"If you're going to go in and try to topple Saddam Hussein,you have to go to
Baghdad. Once you've got Baghdad, it's not clear what you do with it. It's
not clear what kind of government you would put in place of the one that's
currently there now. Is it going to be a Shia regime, a Sunni regime or a
Kurdish regime? Or one that tilts toward the Baathists, or one that tilts
toward the Islamic fundamentalists? How much credibility is that government
going to have if it's set up by the United States military when it's there?
How long does the United States military have to stay to protect the people
that sign on for that government, and what happens to it once we leave? "
I miss the 1991 pre-billion dollars ***** Cheney, I wonder what ever happened
to him?
