Did he just say "Obamanible?"

Nice to see someone of his stature and wisdom addressing these disturbing issues.

Good on Carter again. WTF is with Brian Williams' uncomprehending Frankenstein stare?

Unfortunately Carter doesn't get a lot of respect, particularly from the people who don't want a black man in the White House.

EPIC PRESIDENTIAL FAILURE.

A Jew-hating socialist and one of America's worst presidents is attempting to defend a freedom-hating communist and one of America's future worst presidents.

This is good news. The public should associate their bad memories of Jimmy Carter I with Jimmy Carter II.

^See?

Good on Carter again. WTF is with Brian Williams' uncomprehending Frankenstein stare?

Because Brian Williams is one of the few news persons on the air that at least TRIES to be a little bit logical and sensible. So when his half-insane guest said something patently ridiculous, Williams had a natural reaction. Carter isn't serious, sober, or presidential. He's a small, petty man seeking significance the only way he knows how - by lying about people he politically opposes and making a further @$$ of himself in the process.

The opposition to Obama isn't race motivated. Such a statement is nothing more than a self-delusional neolib fantasy being trotted out of the standard stable of Democrat political tactics as justification to ignore the massive public rejection of Obama's policies and agenda, and his own inability to lead his party. This is nothing new. Democrats always call Repubicans racists & bigots merely for opposing Democrat policy. It is patently absurd, but they keep doing it.

This is the same utter garbage that Nancy Pelosi is trying to pull with her uber-fake "I'm concerned about hate speech inciting violence" stunt yesterday. Oh PLEASE. Democrats have been the primary source of hate speech for the past 8 years and now they're all worried about it? What a load of garbage. They're hypocrites. Complete hypocrites.

"Racism". It's the new McCarthyism! Don't like someone? Call them a racist. Disagree with someone politically? Call them a racist. It's easy and fun!

Unfortunately Carter doesn't get a lot of respect, particularly from the people who don't want a black man in the White House.

Carter earned his FAIL the old-fashiond way: by being a demoralizing spineless failure. The only color I hate about Obamarx is communist RED. Like Carter, he will be judged by the content of his character in choosing to be a left-wing radical doofus.

Race hatred? Knee-jerk liberals hate Whites even when they're White. What's THAT about?

Nope, no race-related opposition to Obama at all: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mukulr/3914469206/in/photostream/

No one is saying there aren't some isolated kooks who are racist. Shame on them. What I'm saying is that for Carter to generically label ALL opposition to Obama as racist (which is what he's doing) is pure garbage. Carter made no qualifications on his comment. He said "The overwhelming portion of the animosity to Obama is because he's a black man." He's lumping anyone and everyone who opposes Obama POLITICALLY into a bin and ascribing thier motivation as racial. Bullcrap.

Race is the last thing on the mind of most of the people that oppose Obama. They oppose his radicalism. They oppose his interpretation of the Constitution as lacking 'negative rights'. They oppose his Kenesyian propensities. They oppose his cradle to grave vision of America. They oppose his attempt to change health care. They oppose his attempt to tax energy & carbon. They oppose his takeovers of the auto industry and key financial institutions. They oppose his union ties. They oppose his deplorable habit of bad mouthing his own country. They oppose him for a million and one reasons, and none of them have anything to do with whether he's black, white, or purple.

Carter is full of crap. His comments are more a reflection of is own propensity for viewing the world through the lens of race than anything else.

UPDATE: And hopefully this little gem from Obama himself will put this silly matter to rest... Whatever racism actually exists against Obama is isolated, and in the remotest, most miniscule minority.

I can't tell if Brian Williams is incredulous or about to fall asleep.
