His greatest contribution to the world will occur when he shuffles off this mortal coil.
Chris B| 9.20.10 @ 2:59PM
Such a nasty, petty, little man.
albert constantine jr.| 9.20.10 @ 3:06PM
His greatest achievement: making possible the two terms of Ronald Wilson Reagan AKA Ronaldus Magnus.
Eric Cartman| 9.20.10 @ 5:08PM
BINGO! My thought exactly.
John W.| 9.20.10 @ 3:15PM
Cut him some slack. He's just celebrating his recent loss of status as worst president in the country's history.
Pete| 9.20.10 @ 3:51PM
Hit the nail on the head there. What a gift before he passes away.

Whaaddya got left after picking the peanuts out of the human form of a current or former Anti-American, terrorist embracing, nuclear proliferation arse kissing, POSPOTUS?
You got,left a steaming pile of Doooo D, CaaCa, Meairda, human excrement et al pertaining to one out of any liberal wastoid within five feet of Barry, Rosalyn, Michele or JIMMMMMMAH..
WB| 9.20.10 @ 3:22PM
Yes, certainly a legend in his own mind ....
Ken| 9.20.10 @ 3:34PM
Carter is certainly superior as ex-President than as President. If that is what he meant, there will be hearty agreement all around.
Ivan| 9.20.10 @ 3:51PM
"Carter is certainly superior as ex-President than as President. If that is what he meant, there will be hearty agreement all around."
Actually not, He did some very good things in economy for example the airline deregulation, while as an ex-president he did nothing apart from palling around with the dictators.
Robert| 9.20.10 @ 4:17PM
He is only superior to the current fool in the WH. Oh yes, I forgot, he is also superior to the buffoon in the VP position!
The current WH resident makes Carter look smart and Clinton look honest!

Carter was President? Who knew?
Christopher Holland| 9.20.10 @ 8:15PM
He must have forgotten about Desert One, the Iran hostage business, getting over the inordinate fear of communism, the malais, unemployment, inflation, ......... He is an old man, he has trouble remembering these things.
KansasGirl| 9.20.10 @ 10:11PM
What an idiot.
J.C.Eaton| 9.21.10 @ 12:06AM
The irrepressible James Earl Carter is quite simply:Shit Nuts.
Dernon Ruton| 9.21.10 @ 12:28AM
He would have been an even more spectacular success as an unheralded submarine officer who never had nor exercised political ambition.

" Carter Claims He's a "Superior" Former President ...."
Yeah - in his nightmares.
Mark H.| 9.21.10 @ 9:27AM
The only good thing Jimmy Carter did was as an ex-president: he lent his support to Habitat for Humanity. That was before he considered world "peacemaking" more important than helping the poor find housing.

This much superior president gifts to our world includes a murderous theocracy in Iran, and a marxist-sandinista dictatorship in Nicaragua.
