It is when you act like an honest broker, while all the time you're strongly favoring 1 side.

What do we get from the Palestinians except rabid hate?

I don't deny that carter is a shill for the Islamic world and that's why I will never take him seriously in his post presidency. He's a shill for a culture that's completely the antithesis of western culture and that's just something I can't ignore.

I can still agree with a broken clock that's right twice a day though.

Just because I have a problem with Israel does not mean I favor the other side. Just calling a spade a spade and that's Israel being a terrible ally. Israel, a foreign country, has an unbelievable amount of involvement in our domestic politics and politicians here defer to them when it's necessary and sometimes unnecessarily and it's disconcerting to say the least.

He was a shitty president and was a problem for several administrations but I wouldnt wish cancer on him or his family.

If its not curable, I hope it runs its course quickly. He's lived a long life.

Meh, the Palestinians got screwed. Their current actions make us think they deserve it, but they did get screwed out of their land.

the Israelis realize you can never trust Arabs, or Persians, so they will never give up what is necessary to achieve peace, which makes Carter against them.

I'd sell/give the Israelis whatever arms they need, and just give them a free hand over there. There will never be peace. May as well have an ally we can semi-trust in charge, instead of a bunch of rat bastards continually stabbing us in the back.

Gotta agree here......... He tried to do it "the right way" and failed.........

The late 70's were still pretty rough to be president. Oil embargoes, multiple revolutions around the world, and the Soviet Union at it's mightiest.

So true.............. The 80's were a GREAT decade because of Reagan..............

When conservative leaders die people have death parties. I think you'll be able to handle some insensitive message board posts.

Yep. He is graduate of Annapolis. Unseated a virulent racist to be Governor of Georgia. He made some really bad choices for cabinet members and had a Muslim uprising that the CIA totally missed in Iran. He is a really good man and has done more with his after Presidency life than anyone I can think of. He is a great person, just wasn't a great President.

Maddox was term limited and actually served as Carter's lieutenant governor.

Agree with presidents or not, it's always nice to see the pics of past presidents all together. Sad that the last one of those pictures with carter has probably already been taken. Prayers sent to the family

Given his age, I am not sure this is at all much of a surprise.

That said, he will be the second worst president. The worst one is currently in office.

However, I would not wish cancer on anyone.
