Carter Gets Bush-Whacked by Administration for Accuracy

Posted in General at 8:52 pm by MamaSaid

I have had a momentary diversion from my veteran husband’s medical concerns today as I read the statements made by former United States President, Jimmy Carter, regarding the current President, George Bush, Jr. Carter stated about Bush, quite accurately, that, “I think as far as the adverse impact on the nation around the world, this administration has been the worst in history.” Carter’s response was in response to a question that compared the Bush administration to Nixon’s foreign policy. The Carter statement was published in the Arkansas Democrat Gazette and it didn’t take Bush long to catch wind of it.

Apparently Bush’s good old boys didn’t take too long to retort. Though they didn’t have anything to say on Saturday, by Sunday they were ready. The White House spokesman, Tony Fratto, stated, “I think it’s sad that President Carter’s reckless personal criticism is out there. And I think he is proving to be increasingly irrelevant with these kinds of comments.”

Of course, I bristled immediately at this response from the White House. Obviously anyone that disagrees with these idiots is deemed to be “irrelevant”. Apparently the majority of this county, as well as other countries internationally, are basically unimportant to Bush and his boys because they don’t agree with his self-centered reign of terror. Our country has made no progress with regard to homelessness, Social Security reform, proper care of veterans or establishing a functional national health policy that actually cares for people. Instead, Bush intends to offers Social Security benefits paid by working class Americans to illegal – key term ILLEGAL- aliens. But then again, when did the actual laws or the people they are supposed to protect ever really matter to these renegade leaders anyway? Frankly, we shouldn’t be worried about Iraq when we consider the sad state of our own nation today compared to where it was a decade ago.

Clearly, people must feel threatened by the Bush boys because it then seems that Carter backed off his statements a bit, saying, “Well, I don’t claim to have any relevancy. I have a completely unofficial capacity. The only thing I lead is the Carter Center.” He went on to state that his remarks were “careless or misinterpreted” and that his comment was reserved to the comparison of Bush foreign policy with Nixon foreign policy. Jimmy did uphold that, “I think this administration’s foreign policy compared to President Nixon’s was much worse.”

However, this has not been the first time Carter was a critic of Bush. The former president had said that the Bush administration had a “radical departure from all previous administration policies” with the Iraq war, going on that, “We now have endorsed the concept of pre-emptive war where we go to war with another nation militarily, even though our own security is not directly threatened, if we want to change the regime there or if we fear that some time in the future our security might be endangered.”

Jimmy Carter also denounced the relationship between Bush and Tony Blair, British Prime Minister, in during a BBC interview. When he describes Blair’s relationship with George, he calls it, “Abominable. Loyal, blind, apparently subservient. I think that the almost undeviating support by Great Britain for the ill-advised policies of President Bush in Iraq have been a major tragedy for the world.

I find it interesting to note that Jimmy Carter, who was president from 1977-1981, won a Nobel Peace Prize for his charitable work and has been in opposition to invading Iran prior to the launch in 2003. It is even more notable to consider that I didn’t see Jimmy Carter’s name on the list of world power people who attended secret societies described in this blog. Frankly, I’m glad there’s a person in power who doesn’t dance with these deviants and actually wants to address the real issues – there’s nothing irrelevant about that to the rest of the world – just a small group who wants us to believe they are the final word.

    Too bad Carter became intimidated into backing off his statement, because it’s absolutely true. Bush is the worse president in history.
