(Page 8 of 17)

I read on another blog that Mr. Carter is borderline certifiable for mental illness. While I doubt that this is true, when he makes comments such as those quoted in this article, they don't help to combat that judgment of his mental state. Notwithstanding that my 1976 vote for Mr. Carter is one of my greatest regrets, I now see that his incompetence as President has morphed into monomania. He is obsessed with the notion that he can erase his numerous glaring misjudgments, both as President and as self-appointed arbitrator of the fate of other nations, by bringing an end to the Hebrew/Muslim conflict in the Middle East.

Unfortunately, according to his actions, he believes that the only way this end to conflict will come is if the Nation of Israel is destroyed. I would suggest that this belief is the guiding factor of most of his post-presidential activities, and while I don't presume to know what is in his heart, I think it is only logical to conclude that this behavior is at odds with what he has always publicly claimed to be his great commitment to morality. With each public appearance and speech, he more deeply entrenches himself in the snake pit of Muslim hatred. As such, it is difficult to accept his posturing as someone who is not anti-Semitic, not anti-Israel, but rather pro-peace.

p>I have given him every benefit of the doubt, yet he comes up short. If his convictions are genuine, he is an utter fool. If they are not, he is an amoral charlatan. I can find no other way to describe him. br> -- Joseph Baum /p> p> Jimmy Carter doesn't have a Jewish problem -- he has anti-Semitic problem. Like a sizable portion of the Democrat/Copperhead/Quisling/Appeaser party Jimmy Carter is an anti-Semite. America's worst President is also its nastiest and most hypocritical. Time for the man who sold Iran out to the fanatics and was Yassir Arafat's bosom buddy to stop the verbal goose-stepping and fess up to his hatred of Jews. Honesty is the best policy. br> -- Michael Tomlinson br> Jacksonville, North Carolina /p> p> HOMNICK HUMOR br> Re: Jay D. Homnick's Cherokee Indignation
