#1 I guess Zell chose country over party.

#2 Carter apparently places loyalty to Party above loyalty to the nation.

Not a really shocking revelation, is it?

#3  Carter was one of the WORST Presidents America has ever had to endure. Think there was a direct correlation between his horrible job as a Democratic President and 12 consecutive years or Republican Presidents? Which, by the way, would have streched even longer if Perot hadn't been the spoiler in the Bush/Clinton election.

He started to reshape his legacy with Habitat for Humanity (a noble cause). Then when he (IMHO, wrongly) won the Nobel Peace Prize. THAT went straight to his head. He then cock blocked Clinton in North Korea, then got snookered. The ego maniac then broke precedence with tradition to start bad mouthing a sitting President. (Clinton, not to be outdone jumped on the bandwagon shortly thereafter)

Now, the spineless bastard shows how shallow he really is and PROVES that the Democrats are loyal to THE PARTY first, then the country.
Zell Miller is an inspiration. He, McCain, and Lieberman are the only politicians that are willing to go against the party to do the right thing for the country.

Lastly, I saw an interview with Carter, who was TOTALLY out of his mind. Saying his 4 years were an example of statemanship bar none. What an idiot. Carter is just another good example of an Oxygen Thief(TM).

#5 He started to reshape his legacy with Habitat for Humanity...

All Carter did for HfH is popularize it. It was a running concern long before his involvement.

#6 Carter is a expert in "unprecedented disloyalty."

He's been selling out this country ever since he was - God help us - elected president.

#7 Carter said he served in the Navy from 1942 to 1953 and, as president, strengthened the nation’s military.

I must've missed that. Must've been asleep that day.

#8 Kerry is Carter Lite. With all due respect, Jimmy Carter always tries to balance his bad decisions with moral responsibility, with which one can agree or debate. John Kerry bases all his decisions on what makes John Kerry look good right now.

Notice that the letter was not released, which suggests to me that the Kerry machine would rather let the media mislead speculate on the actual content.

#9 98Zulu, I think you have your chronology wrong. Carter didn't get the noble price until Bush was President, the committee wanted to show their disdain for Bush and elevating Carter was the best way. He was cock-blocking Clinton before he got the prize.

#11 definition of "unprecedented disloyalty":

Working with Fidel Castro as a private citizen, at cross-purposes with national policy. NO! That's treason!!

#12 Carter probably bears more responsibility for the WoT than any other American. If he had dealt properly with Khomeini instead of being a LLL, the Arabs wouldn't have started drawing the worng conclusions about the U. S.

#14 tu3031...I was active duty during the Carter administration and what I remember is not great. We were constantly without parts for the aircraft and having to cannonball (borrow) from other aircraft down for other problems. And I think it was during his administration that we were told we might not get paid one month because the budget had not been approved. Lots of sour airmen on that one. We did but at the last moment.

During the Iran situation we went on full alert (and not a drill) but everything was wishy-washy about what we were doing or what was going on. They'd put us on alert then take us down and then back up.

He definitely did not strengthen the military!! I for one was so happy when Reagan defeated him.

#15 Heh. Ol' Jimmuh sure do love those poor people. Lord knows, he created a whole lot of 'em.
