I love Jimmy Carter.
He calls them as he sees them, and he sees the latent racism behind much of the staged outrage we seem to be inundated with.
All the right-wing talking heads are pissing all over themselves in their feigned outrage. I am surprised one of them hasn't used the 'My best friend was a negro!' defense. Like we are too stupid not to catch the meaning behind their code words. Glenn Beck reminds his fans that the president '...isn't one of us.' Give me a break. It is clear that he wasn't telegraphing that Obama is really a dachshund. Unless Beck really is criminally stupid, he knows damn well that when he says that his followers will go for the most obvious 'difference'. It is old fashioned race baiting, and Jimmy Carter sees it, and puts it right out there.
Way to go, Mr. President!
I love it. Republican ex-presidents go to work for Saudi owned multinationals, and Democratic ex-presidents (and ex-vice presidents, I might add) do things that win Nobel Peace Prizes. Yeah, I guess that group really isn't like the followers of Republican/right wing bloviation.
