Carter: the anti-president

Besides sipping tea with dictators, Jimmy Carter also enjoys long walks on the beach, beautiful bouquets of flowers from ardent admirers (like Kim Jong Il), cute little puppies (always), and rampant anti-americanism. He is, in all candor, the anti-president, which prophecy predicted would come in the last days.

While we are celebrating the birth of our country on the 4th of July with traditional kinds of patriotism, Jimmy Carter will be exercising instead the liberal version of patriotism, the rite of dissent, against an America he views as more dangerous and unfree than any nation in the Axis of Evil.

The U.S. Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) turns 40 tomorrow, the day we celebrate our independence. But this anniversary will not be a day of celebration for the right to information in our country. ~Washington Post

No! No celebrations. America is the enemy. It always is. In liberal-speak: Dissent is patriotism; thus the more you slander America, the more you actually love it!

This is not surprising since Jimmy Carter believes that America was tainted from the start. The birth of our country is something like that of Damian Thorn in the Omen.

'If only it had been conceived in non-violence! Then we would be a free country like Canada!'

CARTER: Well, one parallel is that the Revolutionary War, more than any other war up until recently, has been the most bloody war we‘ve fought. I think another parallel is that in some ways the Revolutionary War could have been avoided. It was an unnecessary war.

Had the British Parliament been a little more sensitive to the colonial's really legitimate complaints and requests the war could have been avoided completely, and of course now we would have been a free country now as is Canada and India and Australia, having gotten our independence in a nonviolent way. ~msnbc.com

It's no wonder that at every turn Jimmy Carter spares no effort to slander this nation and support dictators around the world.

Our government leaders have become increasingly obsessed with secrecy. Obstructionist policies and deficient practices have ensured that many important public documents and official actions remain hidden from our view.

The events in our nation today -- war, civil rights violations, spiraling energy costs, campaign finance and lobbyist scandals -- dictate the growing need and citizens' desire for access to public documents.~Washington Post

We don't have a secrecy problem. We have an anti-american problem. We have a problem wherein the left continues to paint fellow Americans and America itself as evil and the source of all that is wrong with the world today.

What we have today is a cadre of self-appointed leftists who have no problem blaming Bush for failing to stop 9/11 and who demand that the war on terror be fought as a law enforcement excercise-- giving full ACLU defence treatment and rights and due process to Osama Bin Laden and Al-Zarqawi while they are sawing the heads off civilians. Then they turn around and say that we are the corrupt, no-good, barbaric monsters!

Then to top it off they leak to the world the very tools used to pursue the war on terror through law enforcement means, thereby making it harder to fight the war on terror.

It is as though the left is always working to defeat the United States. Working to minimize our hegemony and influence.
