#1 I hate the word 'balance' and anyone who thinks it represents a coherent (and never mind moral or rational) way of dealing with the world. Too many examples of its sheer ludicrousness come to mind. I would like to send a suicide bomber to Carter's house such that he can give us a practical demonstration of balance. Perhaps he can achieve balance by letting only half his family be blown up.

#2 Send a suicide rabbit. A vicious one. I find it wonderfully ironic that he was talking about the environment to people in an RV park...some of the biggest gas guzzlers on the road. But as we all know, pointing out faults of Carter is far easier than wrestling lollipops from infants.

#3 Ok, let's put it into small words so the Georgia Genius can "get it".
The air and water are cleaner now then when you were president. That's why you can go see the pretty birdies on your trip.
The people blowing themselves up aren't the evil Joooooos. (Put your copy of "The Protocols of Zion" down, Jimmy. It's not real. The Russians wrote it.)
The Joooooos are pulling out of the occupied territories. They have had enough of Arafat's crap, even though you haven't.
(Yeah, I know.....wasting my time......)

#5 Dhimmi Carter - America's answer to Jacques Chiraq. Why can't that man simply dry up and blow away? I have to admit, he's made his mark in American History - he's finally surpassed Franklin Pierce as the most useless of US Presidents.

#6 Ah, Dhimmi Carter who put into motion 25 years of mega terrorism by pushing out the Shah of Iran.

http://www.nationalreview.com/impromptus/impromptus050302.asp

No one quite realizes just how passionately anti-Israel Carter is. William Safire has reported that Cyrus Vance acknowledged that, if he had had a second term, Carter would have sold Israel down the river.

But here is Carter, to Douglas Brinkley, Carterâs biographer and analyst: âThe intifada exposed the injustice Palestinians suffered, just like Bull Connorâs mad dogs in Birmingham.â

In The Unfinished Presidency, Brinkley writes, âThere was no world leader Jimmy Carter was more eager to know than Yasir Arafat.â

At their first meeting â in 1990 â Carter boasted of his toughness toward Israel, assuring Arafat at one point, â. . . you should not be concerned that I am biased. I am much more harsh with the Israelis.â Arafat, for his part, railed against the Reagan administration and its alleged âbetrayals.â Rosalynn Carter, taking notes for her husband, interjected, âYou donât have to convince us!â

Much more Carter silliness at the link.

#8 As a birdwatcher myself, I take great offense at the characterization of it as boring.

Have you ever tried taking candy from a baby? Baby doesn't care that it'll spoil her supper, baby wants that lollipop!

#14 My theory is that Jimmy Carter dedicated his life to restoring Neville Chamberlain's reputation. He's doing a damned good job of it, by the way.

#15 "...the decimation of forest lands."

Has this idiot seen the ANWR? If there's anything growing over 6" tall, I'll eat it.

I don't think we've ever had a worse ex-President. Even Clinton just mugs for the camera now and again, but otherwise had shut up.
