Former President Jimmy Carter has proven himself clueless once again.
Former President Carter says President Bush’s administration is “the worst in history” in international relations, taking aim at the White House’s policy of pre-emptive war and its Middle East diplomacy.
The criticism from Carter, which a biographer says is unprecedented for the 39th president, also took aim at Bush’s environmental policies and the administration’s “quite disturbing” faith-based initiative funding.
“I think as far as the adverse impact on the nation around the world, this administration has been the worst in history,” Carter told the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette in a story that appeared in the newspaper’s Saturday editions. “The overt reversal of America’s basic values as expressed by previous administrations, including those of George H.W. Bush and Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon and others, has been the most disturbing to me.”
Carter’s astounding pronouncements were made as he promotes his new audiobook series, Sunday Mornings in Plains.
“Apparently, Sunday mornings in Plains for former President Carter includes hurling reckless accusations at your fellow man,” said Amber Wilkerson, Republican National Committee spokeswoman. She said it was hard to take Carter seriously because he also “challenged Ronald Reagan’s strategy for the Cold War.”
Of course President Carter has the right to say whatever he wants, but could show a lot more class if he kept a mouth full of peanut butter.

It’s apparent that former President Jimmy Carter got the the party a little late. Who didn’t already know that President George Bush is the worst chief executive in the history of the United States? We will be paying for his war for the next twenty years. The military is practically broken, reduced to recruiting semi-literate thugs, and nearly 6000 of them are AWOL, We’re starting to see record numbers of home foreclosures and business bankruptcy filings, Iran is trying to build a bomb, and North Korea may have tested one on his watch… and the only surge we’ve seen in Iraq, is a surge in casualties. Now that many of the co-conspitators who are responsible for the disaster in the Middle-East have left the scene of the crime, President Bush is running out the clock, so that he can dump this mess on the next President, and if he or she is a Democrat, so much the better. It’ll be win/win for his legacy, because if the problem gets worse after he leaves, he’ll claim that its his successor’s fault, and if things get better, he’ll claim he was right all along.
