Jimmy Carter grounded. Plus: Protestants and the Pope. Ithaca's finest students. Democratization. Detroit. And much more.

Jimmy Carter

p>Even in the State of Georgia, Jimmy Carter's headline grabbing
is getting old. Retired presidents (are you listening, Slick
Willie?) should stay that way. Retired! Assisting in natural
disasters and war effort for the good of everyone is fine. Critique
and contradicting past and current presidential administrations is
not and has not been acceptable. But then it only seems like the
last two Democratic presidents are guilty of this so who cares? I
am just sick and tired of these two guys (Carter mostly) bashing
our country and its principles. Carter has really lowered his
stature as a "Statesman" among people. He is a bit of a joke now
and some people still take this Socialist-hick seriously! He is
"Full of Hope" and "He Cares." He had his chance to change the
world as president and he was a flop!

Your article on Carter not going to the Pope's funeral was
interesting. There was a statement by an administration source
claiming that Carter has bad mouthed Bush more than Clinton. I feel
that is very untrue. I have read and heard more statements from
Clinton bashing Bush than Carter. Why Bush insists on attaching his
hip to Clintons the way he has is beyond me. I am so disgusted with
the way Bush is snuggling up to Clinton and wonder if the facade
has come off of him.
