#1 "I'm not anti-semitic. ~~I hate all Jews, not just the semitic ones, so~~ don't call me anti-semitic"

#2 "If I was memorializing Martin Luther King, I would expect a significant number of board members to be African American. If I was memorializing Native American figures I'd expect a lot of Native Americans to be on the board"

I'm sure Carter would actually agree with this statement. A large number of African and Native Americans isn't disturbing to him. A lot of Jews, apparently, is.

#4 Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp system from Wikipedia:

The death toll remains unknown, although most sources place it between 122,766 and 320,000 for the entire complex. The camps formed one of the first massive concentration camp complexes in Nazi Germany, and were the last ones to be occupied by the Western Allies or the Soviet Union. The two main camps, Mauthausen and Gusen I, were also the only two camps in the whole of Europe to be labelled as "Grade III" camps, which meant that they were intended to be the toughest camps for the "Incorrigible Political Enemies of the Reich".[1] Unlike many other concentration camps, intended for all categories of prisoners, Mauthausen was mostly used for extermination through labour of the intelligentsia, who were educated people and members of the higher social classes in countries subjugated by Germany during World War II.[4]

#5 In related news: President Carter should be tried for crimes against humanity.

#6 Former Thank God for that. President I'm still ashamed of that. Jimmy Carter

As A lifelong Southerner I feel the need to Apologise, Most of us realize racial hatred is stupid somewhere around the junior-high years.

#7 To be fair, this story is not sourced very well. I would really like to see the actual note and have the "prominent Holocaust scholar who is actually Presbyterian but has a Jewish-sounding name" be identified. I'm fairly sure Professor Freedman is a 'reliable source' but this allegation is very serious and he ought to back them up with some verifiable facts. If it cannot be proven, the moonbats will have a field day, and rightfully so.

I still stand by my statement that former Presidents should keep their yaps shut.

#8 Senile Dementia is so sad. Even more so when it affects an ex-president.

Isn't it time for his family to put in a "home" that can properly sedate him?

#9 I don't know Sea...I somewhat agree with you, but based upon prior experiences with Jimmuh, I'm betting it's real. Kind of like "circumstantial evidence," methinks.

#10 It's clearly not senility, 3dc, since he's been acting quietly on his bigotry since he was elected to office. It's just that in order to bring the world round to his way of thinking he's got to shout it to the rooftops. I'm sure he's honestly confused by the brouhaha, since nobody's openly protested his attitude or actions before. I f we could read his thoughts I'm sure they would run along the lines of, "I'm couldn't possibly be antisemitic since I was the one who established the Holocaust Museum that they so badly wanted; I can't be anti-Israel, since I was the one who made them make peace... which those Jews are screwing up by not doing as I tell them to! I'm not a hypocrite or a liar because I'm a good Christian -- I taught Sunday School and everything! Why do those Jews and their friends keep picking on me?"

#11 I know, BA, but these are *very* serious allegations. The people making the allegations had best be able to back them up or there will be hell to pay.

#13 I think Jimmy Carter would like a Final solution to teh "to many Jews" problem.

#14 TW:

I agree -- I think he's sincere. And that's the scariest part -- he thinks his beliefs are absolutely normal, centrist and morally correct.

Working from that set of assumptions, he probably sees antagonistic positions as being agenda-driven (jooooos), whereas he doesn't believe his position is agenda-driven at all. He believes it to be "Truth."

#15 "He said he decided to speak out after the release of Carter's latest book..."

Where's the sour grapes graphic when you need it?

#16 Muslims paid for Carter's cowardly soul. Muslims own Jimmy Carter. And they have the receipts to prove it.

#17 Too many former Presidents flapping their gums, is what I say.

Only two are really doing any talking. I expect Jimmuh to go Tango-Uniform fairly soon, that or be placed in seclusion by his family. Now Bill, I had a though the other evening just as I was dozing off.

It would not surprise me in the least if Bill had a "Vince Foster™" encounter before the actual election in 2008, after he had helped the Hildabeast get the nomination. It's crazy, I know, but still it would not surprise me. They could claim he was despondent at being the First Dude, so he shot himself in the back of the head...twice.

#19 Chuck...I've been thinkin' the same thing the past year. It would solve many issues... and provide the sympathy vote to put her over the top. Bill hasn't looked the picture of health of late... I"m thinking he'll buy the farm but it'll be the result of issues related to "bad health"

#20 I'm thinking he'll buy the farm but it'll be the result of issues related to "bad health".

They'll find him with a bunch empty Quarter Pounder with Cheese containers littered about, and clutching a half eaten one.
