Howard Goldstein /p> p> Wouldn't it be great if upon return to the USA , the state department pulled Jimmy Carter's passport? It would thrill me to see that done and I believe that it would be seen by many Americans in the same way. Just yank it and let him sue to get it back! br> -- Gene Hauber br> Meshoppen, Pennsylvania /p> p> I'll break my policy of not responding from my workplace to express my disgust as the Georgia Goof betrays his country again. It was H. L. Mencken who observed that ex-presidents should be hung in the interests of public sanitation. He must have had his Swami-hat on when he wrote that, peering down through the years to behold the Carter Manure Spreader in action. It seems to me that Jimmy should be invited to stay over there and not come back here... br> -- W. G. Wheatley /p>

RET, I was sitting in a doctor's waiting room a few years ago, and the TV was blaring Oprah. Melissa Ethridge and Dolly Parton, obviously two experts on the subject (Ethridge is a lesbian), were discussing gay marriage with Oprah. Parton, asked if she was in favor of said couplings, responded charmingly by saying something on the order of, ". . . sure, why shouldn't they have to put up with the same crap everybody else does."

p>Now, there's logic in there somewhere (remember Reagan's pony joke?), but what does this have to do with Jimmy "Mr. JC" (hmm, maybe that's where the problem lies) Carter? I'll take the last sentence in your piece. "A failure as a president, Jimmy is appraised as a useful tool by our enemies." Maybe, they will realize what a pain he is, and the honeymoon will be over. Let the headaches in Hamas begin. br> -- Mike Showalter
