Carter Fiction



Checking out Powerline blog yesterday, I came across an interesting post about Jimmuh Carter entitled Errors, omissions, inventions and falsehoods .

In short, Professor Kenneth Stein of Emory University, is terminating his long association with the Carter Center, solely as a result of Carter's new book, Palestine: Peace, Not Apartheid.

In Professor Stein's words, "President Carter's book... is not based on unvarnished analyses; it is replete with factual errors, copied materials not cited, superficialities, glaring omissions, and simply invented segments."

The resignation letter is well worth the read. What I don't understand is, what took an intelligent person like Professor Stein so long to figure out that Carter is a liar and a cheat?

Awww, but he's old and such a nice guy! You should be nicer tohim. So he made a few mistakes. He's a minister or something, right? I'm sure his heart's in the right place!

No more than Ronald McReagan.... that piece of human debrit that sold us to Japan in the 80's..... Remember pear harbor, I wouldn't polute my urine on Reagan's grave...... Where does the republican party find all these morons?

frank: I can't disagree more. I wouldn't put Ronald Reagan in the same category as Carter. Not for one nanosecond.

He negotiated with terrorists! Remember Iran-Contra..... Payola for releasing the hostages, that was all negotiated before Ronny took the Oath of Office....... Since he negotiated with them once we are forever vulnerable...... Ronny's legacy just stinks. And W. capitulated to them after 9/11 they demanded that we get all our troops out of Saudi so Bush did, he sent them to Iraq..... Guess the GOP is just spineless.

frank: If the GOP is spineless, what does that make the democrats?
