| Jimmy Carter finds an election he says was stolen | ||||
| 2005-09-24 | ||||
| Five years after the controversial 2000 presidential election, ex-President Jimmy Carter now says he's certain Al Gore defeated George W. Bush. "Well I would say that in the year 2000, the country failed abysmally in the presidential election process," Carter told a panel Monday at American University in Washington, D.C. "There's no doubt in my mind that Al Gore was elected president." There's no doubt in My mind that you're the worst ex-President. Ever.
"[Gore] received the most votes nationwide, ...But not of living legal citizens
Actually, the vote was 7-2, including one Clinton appointee in the majority ... on a highly partisan basis by the U.S. Supreme Court, so I would say in 2000, there was a failure." The election failure was in 1976. And 1960. And maybe 1876. Carter's analysis went on to include last year's matchup between Bush and Democrat Sen. John Kerry, as the election came down to a battle over the electoral votes in Ohio. "The year 2004 is hard to grade," said Carter. "I don't have any detailed information about what actually went on in Ohio. If Ohio had gone one way or the other, it would have changed the outcome of the election.
And if Wisconsin (and maybe Washington) hasn't been stolen, Ohio wouldn't have mattered. Please may he travel in the Ninth Circuit court's juristiction, where calling for the assassination of a President is protected speech.

| #25 Do we still have gunnery target ships? One of those would be cool. Perhaps one for Clinton, too. |

| #23 Jimmuah was a good priss pants Rickover kisser, so he get's a sub. Frankly I'd have named a small insignificant non-combatant after him. Or perhaps one of the big in-commission dry-docks. |

#22 He actually did complain a bit about Ethiopia."The Carter Center's assessment of the elections suggests that the majority of the constituency results...are credible and reflected competitive conditions," the group said in a statement. Must have been a doozy of an election if Carter was willing to complain about it. |

| #19 If Gore had managed to carry his home state of Tennessee then all the fuss in Florida would of meant nothing. Pretty embarrassing when your own home state tells you to take a flying leap at a rolling doughnut |

| #18 Let him keep yapping. He is only furthering his legacy. History will be most unkind. |

| #17 between Carter and the other moonbats I think on the week of a full moon you should have a page 5 and call it the moonbat reports. |

| #16 Hey, at least Millard Fillmore had the decency to run as a Know Nothing. Carter has just descended into a fever swamp of bitterness as more and more people acknowledge him as the worst president of the modern era. He lowers the world opinion of America with every breath he takes, a man who has never met a left wing dictator he didn't support. Wanker. |

| #15 Carter's still alive? Physically, at least. |

| #14 Remember when I called Sunday School Jimmy the biggest liar I'd ever seen? Remember laughing at an olde racist? Was I wrong? I should'a taken an axe handle to that sniffer when I had the chance. BTW I run Gawd's fried chicken stand now. |

| #13 The first and only successful Buchanan for President, James, was the worst occupier of the White House. Jimmy is making for number two. Too many of his missteps thankgoodness have happened after his departure. However, if the Islamists successfully denotate a nuke in the US, then his bumbling of the hostage situation will propel him from the student to the master standing. |

| #11 Millard Fillmore was pretty bad. Believe it or not, it's true. Fillmore was one of the most enthusiastic enforcers of the Fugitive Slave Act. He (and Pierce and Buchanan) also pursued a policy of appeasement toward the Southern cotton interests that only encouraged them to demand more in later years--leading ultimately to secession and the Civil War. Carter thought he was presiding over the inevitable decline of a United States facing the ascendancy of the clearly-superior socialist system, led by the invincible USSR, and conducted himself accordingly. (There was also disco, avacado-green shag carpet, and the whole Billy Beer thing, but those are minor irritations.) Since leaving office, he's sided with tyrants against free people every chance he gets. When you lay it out like that, it's kind of a coin flip which is worse. |

| #10 Actually, Gore probably did get the most votes nationwide. Of course, that's not how we decide elections. It was reasonable for a few days in November 2000 to think Gore may have won Florida, but you have to be pretty resistant to facts (non reality based?) to still think so. One of the more harmless delusions of Jimmy and his friends, unfortunately. Speaking of Jimmy's delusional friends, it will be interesting to see how Saturday goes in DC. They removed all the newspaper machines and trash cans from the streets around the Mall a few days ago. |
