All may not agree with this previous President's opinion, but, at least he is telling it like he sees it . . . rare for even an 'ex' politician!
Hurray for freedom of speech, and thinking . . .!!!

Freedom of speech is protected by using it.
I do agree with President Carter about Bush.
We have never had a president work to overthrow the Constitution he swore to defend and protect as this president.
The harm done under this administration to the USA has not ended yet. Some of the effects will last a very long time.
Congress has failed miserably to step up to the plate after the last elections.

Yeah, Carter is the last person who ought to be talking about the "worst" presidency. Of course, he's probably just trying to get someone to look worse than his own regime. The Carter years were undoubtedly the worst economy in my lifetime, and his foreign policy was a well-meaning mess. Bush has been anything but impressive, but those of us who remember Carter's presidency have a hard time with his comments here.

True the Carter years were not the best but when compared to the present years of Bush these past years have show how low the presidency can sink.

Jimmy Carter what a Joke?
Some of Jimmy's greatest Hits, oh there is more
Remeber that Time when Carter was president and he allowed CASTRO to empty out his jail and send them all over tp us.
Remember that time when carter was president and Iran held U.S. TROOPS, AND Diplomats hostage for over 400 days.
The Iran hostage crisis was a diplomatic crisis that lasted from November 4, 1979 until January 20, 1981. Members of the Muslim Student Followers of the Imam's Line, a group of militant university students who were supported by the new Islamic regime, held 63 diplomats and three additional U.S. citizens hostage inside the American diplomatic mission in Tehran, Iran.
The crisis reached its conclusion with the signing of the Algiers Accords. On January 20, 1981, the hostages were formally released into United States custody after spending 444 days in captivity. The release took place just minutes after Ronald Reagan was officially sworn in as president
Late 80's SADDAM GASES NORTHERN IRAQ!! KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE,
1993 WTC Bombing
1996 Khobar Tower 19 U.S. Airman Dead 300 wounded
1998 2 U.S. Embassy bombings in Africa
2000 U.S.S. COLE
2001 9-11 OVER 3,000 AMERICANS DEAD

Just another Bush Basher, Look we went to war in Iraq with the Best Intell at the time, so did he really lie? John Kerry, HILARY CLINTON, John Edwards, Ted Kennedy all made speech to the constitutes saying that Iraq had WMD's or the capability. Now do we give them a pass because there Liberals? Heck in 98 Clinton bombed a supposed WMD depot in Iraq with the same intell as Bush had. Come on get real, How about this WE NO FOR A FACT THAT BILL CLINTON LIED about having and Affair with a girl most of US wouldn't have touched in high school, we also Know that the Clinton's had scandal after scandal WHITE WATER, Jen Flowers, Monica, ETC. Hell David Geffen a Former Clinton supporter stated that THE CLINTON'S LIE COMFORTABLE ALL THE TIME!!! So I ask you and all the other Bush basher's who do you Believe tells the truth BUSH OR THE CLINTON'S?
If your against war that's your right but this hatred toward our president is not right or American if you disagree that's fine you disagree but this pure hatred by these Left -wing - nuts is insane

Watergate? MONICA??? How do those even COMPARE to a war begun on fabricated pretenses, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of human beings? (Yep, that's right, folks---Iraqis are people too.)
Add to that the utter disregard with which the remainder of the world (oh, 'cept maybe for Israel) holds the United States in since this war was initiated. The down-the-toilet economy....gas at $3.50 a gallon...oh, I could just go on and on.
Jimmy Boy, I MISS ya, you old peanut-farmer. You actually had the gall to keep us OUT of a war. Sigh...those were the good ol' days.

What did Carter do?
Double digit inflation
Double digit unemployment
Gutted the military
Fired his Cabinet
Boycotted the Olympics
Gas line were miles long
Did nothing while Russian rolled into Afghanistan
Did nothing about the Hostages in Iran
Was a spineless coward...
No wonder the Liberals love him today.

Carter is a nothing but a sad and bitter man. He has no legacy other than his series of failures. His rants and tirades are testimony to his failed Presidency...
