#1 Being a former President does not give one a unique privilege to invent information or to unpack it with cuts, deftly slanted to provide a particular outlook.

Worked for Carter in the past. Slick Willie, too.

#2 Ouch. Anyone with the slightest tinge of honesty in his soul would would be unable to venture forth from the darkest recesses of his home after Professor Stein's statement, lest someone aware of it might see him. Mr. Carter, however, will be unfazed, I'm quite certain, claiming special knowledge because of his special work experience.

#4 Errors, omissions, inventions and falsehoods

Is that the title?

#5 Carter has been forced to gulp twice in one week-once over being accused of being anti-Semitic on C-Span, once over a long-time and expert colleague basically saying that Carter fabricates truths about the conflict. Beautiful.

#6 No, TU3031, that's his life accomplishments.

#7 Carter is not anti-semitic: he loves the arabs, who also happen to be semitic.

Tell it like it is: He's a jew hater.

#8 That's true, Ptah, but I can't change what the viewer said. We all understand what he meant, though, even if "Jew hater" is more precise.

#10 Carter has never really gotten the justifiably vicious review of his presidency that he deserves.

The entire nation was just so glad at his departure that nobody got around to it.

However, in the future, Carter and Clinton will be inexorably tied together as utterly wasted, worse-than-useless presidencies. Being peers at the bottom of the class, comparisons will be inevitable.

And this will irritate both of them more than anything else.

#13 #2 tw: "Anyone with the slightest tinge of honesty in his soul"

Leaves out Cahtah. He hasn't got honesty or a soul. :-(

#14 Leaves out Cahtah. He hasn't got honesty or a soul.

Not according to too many true believers (like my siblings, unfortunately). Just last month I was listening to them spew the old "Carter was too decent a man to be a good president" line. GAG!

#15 Kinda makes me wonder if he isn't developing Altzheimer's or something. Anyone know how long he's been working on this book?

#16 I, once again, reiterate my quote from the Dixie Twits (spun toward Jimmuh):

"I am so embarrassed that our ex-President is from my home State of Georgia."
