docwebsterTalk about divorced from reality.. this moron accuses President Carter of being a Jihadist.
Why, you may ask?
"Skeptics of President Bush's attempt to bring democracy to Iraq have been largely silent since Iraqis enthusiastically turned out for Sunday's elections. Billionaire Bush-basher George Soros and left-wing filmmaker Michael Moore were among critics of the administration's Iraq policy who had no comment after millions of Iraqis went to the polls in their nation's first free elections in decades.
The Carter Center determined that the security situation in Iraq was going to be too dangerous to send election monitors, so the Atlanta-based human rights organization founded by former President Jimmy Carter posted its personnel in neighboring Jordan.Asked whether the Carter Center had a comment on the election, spokeswoman Kay Torrance said: "We wouldn't have any 'yea' or 'nay' statement on Iraq."
Mr. Carter told NBC's "Today" show in September that he was confident the elections would not take place. "I personally do not believe they're going to be ready for the election in January ... because there's no security there," he said.
Jimmy Carter isn't just misguided or ill-informed. He's on the other side."
"You must be out of your tiny mind." - Terry Jones
This was, of course, snagged from the wise and holy Eschaton.
One of the replies to Eschaton's post puts it pretty succinctly:
"Carter expresses a belief that the security situation precludes elections, and just believing that is traitorous? Actually, of course, Carter was right -- turnout in Sunni Arab areas ranged from about 2%to 20%, and we now have an assembly in which only two of the three largest ethnic groups in the country are represented. Call me a "traitor" just for pointing that out . . ."
Go read the replies. People are seriously pissed off over this.
"OF COURSE Jimmy Carter's on the "other side."
He's on the side against totalitarian, gay-bashing, religious-fundamentalist, one-party-despotic-rule, hate-mongering fools like the Power Line asses.
And thank God he is.
Fuck'em with a chainsaw."
Amen.
