I never thought, with all of the other flops former-President Carter has, that he would add being a mind-reader to the list.

I haven't seen a direct quote from any Senator or Representative where they state they are racist. Not one.

So, Mr. Carter's statement since it isn't supported appears to be just another charge tossed out into the court of public opinion that many have picked up on and have run with. No wonder most don't trust our own media.

BO is just another version of Carter, in a much more polished reincarnation. As far as policy is concerned, there is literally no difference. We need a president who has gonads, not one who speaks well, thanks to his trusty teleprompter. Waffling does not bode well for a president.

You'd better hope you're as sharp as Jimmy Carter when you're 85 years old.

Let's see:

Naval Academy Graduate
Submariner
Nuclear Engineer
Millionaire Farmer
Governor
President of the United States
Successful Author
Humanitarian
Nobel Peace Prize

(This is what the right refers to as a loser)

Now let's look at Dubya

Rich spoiled brat
Frat Boy
Drunk
Failed oil man
Loser in bid for congress
Baseball owner that traded Sammy Sosa
Became Gov based on daddy's name
Stole Presidency based on daddy's name and brothers help in FLA, Supreme Court decision
Retires to Crawford to "clear brush"

(Now that's a real American to be proud of)

In a typical liberal move, Carter plays the racism card instead of dealing with the facts, which are; Obamas policies have been a complete failure.

So what do you suggest, that we just allow illegals to continue to stream into our country, flooding our schools and hospitals, while never contributing a dime for the costs they incur? Are we to keep on overlooking the fact that they game our entitlement system, steal and/or forge ID's, SS#'s and documents to obtain jobs that Americans would most certainly work. By the way, they are driving to those jobs without insurance and valid licenses, putting innocent motorists at risk. Let's not forget to factor in the fact that they also have a penchant for driving while totally inebriated. Are you flat-out daft?

Lordy, an idiot who still thinks anything he says is relevant.

You KNOW why they're still trying to demonize Joe Wilson doncha?

He's gone over ONE MILLION DOLLARS in contributions now.

Within 48 hours, he raised $750,000 for his campaign.

The MEDIA tried to run with "his opponent raised $50,000 within 24 hours."

Yea, notice how SILENT they are on how much WILSON raised?

They don't want to TALK about THAT now, do they?

THAT'S why the media, the house, and everyone wants to villify Wilson.

He's become a bit of a fundraising stormer.

And the democrats are jealous. So, they're trying to tear him down.

MMMmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm. Myyyyyyy myyyyyyyyy....

They can't beat him, so, they trot out the tired old ridiculous "racist" card.

So pathetic...

In a typical obstructionist Conservative move, private citizen Bush...back when he was "playing president" appeases the terrorists and invades a sovereign nation that hadnt attacked us. He made this decision one night after a fifth of scotch, after his "make believe friend in the clouds" told him so.

Who cares what the peanut counter has to say?
I wonder how he feels about the "white" percentage

Jimmy Carter is the worst president ever and why democrats are even so stupid to pay attention to this moron is beyond belief.

At the end of the day, Wilson was wrong for shouting "you lie" at the president.
He apologized to the President, vice-president, chief of staff. The president accepted.
End of story already.

There is no racism, the fringe idiot democrats and media liberals want to create a story to cover up the ongoing ACORN corruption.

The majority party should work on solving todays problems and not worry about something the President and Nancy Pelosi put behind them (Nancy was for no action against wilson before she was against it....)

The president is going to use 500+billion of waste in medicare to help pay for the healthcare bill.

Folks, key your eye on the ball. Fix medicare to help solve our healthcare first.
