Jimmy Carter Makes An Arse Of Himself

Don't agree with Obama? It's all down to Teh Racism!

Now Carter has a reputation, that of a fine man, but who was one of the lousiest presidents ever, and comments like this endanger that reputation - not being a crappy president, but being a decent man.

Elsewhere this new it's all about the racism attitude has been described as the new McCarthyism, a way of stifling debate. Barry O is in danger of becoming Ali G - is it cos I is black?

There are elements of racism where Obama is concerned, but that is no reason to discard opposition to his views and regard the opposition, simplistically, as mere racists.

Obama was happy castigating Kanye West, will he now tell Jimmy Carter to keep it zipped?
