What’s that say about the other guys?
Jimmy Carter, probably the worst President in American history, tried to convince NBC viewers that he’s the best ex-President ever. (Picked up at Hot Air who linked to NBC – see how I linked to you there, Hot Air?)
In an interview with NBC’s Brian Williams, former President Jimmy Carter, who has been a target of the right through the years, lauded his own post-presidency, telling Williams, “I feel that my role as a former president is probably superior to that of other presidents.”
Superior? Really? Like the way he bought time for North Korea to develop their nuclear weapons program? The way he encourages Palestinians to kill Jews? The way he’s silent on Iran, but condemns Israel at every opportunity? Well, apparently even carter was embarrassed by his remark;
*** UPDATE 3:59 pm ET *** Former President Carter issued a written statement after his comments aired:
“What I meant was, for 27 years the Carter Center has provided me with superior opportunities to do good.”
The Carter Center has provided him the opportunity to be the most superior meddler in history. Didn’t the Carter Center certify Hugo Chavez’ last election despite clear evidence that there was malfeasance involved in the election? Was it a coincidence that the certification occurred during the Bush Administration?
Exit polling from the American firm of Penn, Schoen & Berland Associates suggested the inverse of the results Mr. Carter blessed last Monday that showed Mr. Chavez survived the recount referendum by a margin of 59% to 41%. Nor does the list of concerns for the opposition end with rigged voting machines. Many parties say they have names of government employees fired after their names were disclosed on the Internet by a pro-Chavez legislator as signers of a petition calling for the referendum. Some Venezuelan papers even reported that the paper records of the votes were found in rivers and vacant lots.
And then Carter was disappointed when Chavez became an authoritarian and wouldn’t cooperate with the Democrat Administration.
Carter says Chavez initially helped the country by sharing national wealth. But Carter says Chavez is now consolidating political power, making it “almost impossible” for the Obama Administration to establish friendly relations with Venezuela.
Yeah, that’s a real superior record there, peanut boy.

Meh….I’m thinking that Billy could have done a better job…but (snifff) Jesus called him home.
Jimmah the Peanut … yeah, he’s a real Germanicus.
Well, to this I would say – You’re not a man until you stop trying to prove it.
and 2.) I’d say LBJ was the worst president based on actual physical damage to the USA.
Gotta disagree, Kid. Jimmah was, by far, the worst ever. You only have to look at Desert One, the misery index, the oil embargo, “turn down your thermostat and wear a sweater”, double digit inflation rate, among a host of things.
Politically, he’s a dangerous fool. I will give him credit for his Habitat For Humanity work though.
I don’t think that there is any question that Jimmy Carter has now lost his title as the Worst President in American history. He’s now only number two.
