jimmy carter

I was too young to appreciate much of anything of the events of his presidency, but from what little I know of his life, he seems to be a person of humility, decency and integrity.

Jimmy from Plains has outlived the most recent record holder George Bush by one day. So far. Good luck with that. Over on FARK these other old record holders only carry the mantle for a few weeks after being designated. But with C, B, and O left it should be a while before the next one RIP’s...

Jimmy Carter was not a popular or successful President. But it's worth reminding ourselves what integrity and commitment to public service look like...

I was reading about what a bloodthirsty imperialist Jimmy Carter was and now I forgot what he did. Anybody know who he had assassinated or what war he started? I am tempted to recheck out the book from the library to find out.

The words of God do not justify cruelty to women. Discrimination and abuse wrongly backed by doctrine. "I have been a practising Christian all my life and a deacon and Bible teacher for many years. My faith is a source of strength and comfort to me, as religious beliefs are to hundreds of...

Not a sympathizer. Not an apologist. Not a propagandist. A terrorist. Jimmy Carter proudly becomes Hamas advisor Israel Today He has crossed the line. He is now a terrorist.

I've begun to read some of the available info on the original October Surprise during the fall of 1980. It's been alledged that Regan's people and the CIA orchestrated a deal to sell arms to Iran if they waited to release the hostages until after the election. I tried a search and didn't come...

Jimmy's World

Has Carter ever described what he saw as a spaceship, alien vehicle, paranormal phenomenon or anything like this? He saw something, he could not identify it, therefore it was technically a UFO. Out of fairness to President Carter, I'd like to clarify this point. I myself have seen a UFO. I saw...

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,284673,00.html (note, this is an AP Story I first saw at Faux) Jimmy, all that street cred you had built up after your milquetoast presidency is about gone. Cash out before its all gone bud.

Just finished reading this book; it's an excellent overview of the sitution over there. It leans toward Israel being the main agressor, but does not excuse acts of violence from anyone.

This time, it's Vic Gold: He's just another Bush hater, so it doesn't count.

Has anyone read Palestine: Peace not Apartheid by Jimmy Carter? Once you get passed his "Historical" account of Israel (which includes Abraham founding the 12 tribes and Jesus' birth) in is a very interesting analysis of the situation. I found Carter handling of the material fair and concise and...

I always thought that Jimmy Carter, despite not being able to get re-elected, was no dummy. Well, when he was president, he consulted a "woman in a trance" to find a missing plane. And he thinks to this day that she did it. From http://www.nydailynews.com/news/gossip/story/375188p-318847c.html

Does anyone know any more information about the UFO sighting of Carter debunked by Shaeffer mentioned in this weeks commentary? It seems strange. For example, how did Schaeffer determine that Carter's date was 9 months wrong? That would certainly affect the conclusion that Carter probably saw...
