Carter on Bush: Worst Ever ...

It's fascinating to see the propaganda machines at work today, mixing revisionist history with personal agenda. There has been a huge, recent wave of declarations all over the Internet declaring George W. Bush as the worst president in history. Most of the claims are from wackos or media whores (see Fatty Trump) because anyone who studies history knows a president's legacy is determined over decades, not months. What we are seeing is a blatant attempt at huge smear campaign that will hopefully contaminate any Republican presidential candidate who has ever supported Bush at any time in any way. Just watch the file footage roll out of Giuliani's 04 Republican convention speech praising Bush and his war on terror. It will come, count on it.

Today's example comes from that hot bed of nonpartisan, pro-American journalism Al-Jazerra where former president Jimmy Carter again breaks precedent, by slandering a sitting president during a time of war. While most have written Carter off as a bitter, anti-Semitic nut job long ago, I say he does have some experience on this topic as he himself proved to be an abysmal failure in the Oval Office. This comes with 28 years to reflect. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.

Maybe Jimmy should advise us on how to deal with the Mullahs since he did so well when he was at bat. If he and Bubba had any balls 9-11 would most likely have never happened.

Carter: Bush 'worst president ever'

Former U.S. president Jimmy Carter has called George Bush's presidency as "the worst in history" while also condemning Tony Blair, the out-going British prime minister, for his close support for Bush's policies.

Carter's comments made in a series of interviews with US and international media which appeared on Saturday.
