Florida Officials Shred Jimmy Carter's 'Shockingly Partisan' Lies

Florida officials have put the worst president in modern American history in his place.

Jimmy Carter's latest paranoid fantasies about the presidential vote – apparently he fears that John Kerry, like Al Gore, might not be able to steal the election – are as botched as his four years of White House malaise, according to officials.

"This is a shockingly partisan opinion piece, and it's unfortunate that a person such as the former president is being used by the Democratic Party for low-level political rhetoric," Jacob DiPietre, press secretary for Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, is quoted as saying today in the Washington Times.

"It's clear that [Carter] doesn't have his facts straight. The governor believes that it's ironic that someone who has spent so much time and so much energy encouraging faith in the elections of Third World countries would go to such lengthy, partisan extremes to undermine voter confidence in his own country," DiPietre said.

I don't understand why Jimmy Carter is still in the public eye. You'd figure after his policies nearly drove our country into the ground, people would start to realize that he was full of crap.

EXACTLY! Do you remember when the first Bush was Pres and Carter's mealy mouthed wife whined on an interview 'Anathin is betta than what we got now'. I almost barfed up my grits. I haven't eaten a p-nut since.

(I'm from the south....I can make that joke!)

Merika, i was in BOOT camp when Peanut Head started screwing up by the numbers. I can state without prejudice that his policies were micro-managed cluster-f&^(s!
Case in point, an US Vessel or aircraft, when confronted with hostile fire, needed to secure permission from the joint chiefs of staff. Cell phones were still science fiction in those days.
The Tehran Embassy was over-run because the security force was not issued ammunition!
When Reagan took office the policy was changed to fire when fired upon! There upon the Malluhs, the Ruskies, and the Red Chinese cooled their jets!
