International disgrace? How about the embarrassment of sitting on our butts while our citizens were held hostage in Iran, hmmmm?

Former President Carter is urging northern Nevadans to elect his son, Jack, to the Senate to help combat a Bush administration he says has brought “international disgrace” to the country.

And then there’s this from the man who embraces dictators:

The winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002, he says he’s deeply embarrassed that the American government now stands convicted around the world as one of the greatest abusers of civil rights.

Greatest abusers of civil rights????? Go here and here and here and here and see how country, after country abuses their people. I have blogged over and over again about people who are killed because they’re Christians. There are countries were people are put to death for being homosexuals. People are jailed because they criticized their country. Women are put to death because they are raped!!!! That’s an abuse of their civil rights!! Go out and campaign against that.
That anyone in this country would say anything like this is appalling. It reminds me of a spoiled brat who sits in a room filled with toys and says, “I don’t have anything to play with.” We are spoiled by our freedom and Carter is the biggest baby. Go to Iran, go to China, go to parts of Africa, go to Cuba, go to Venezuela and speak out against the dictators there and you will see abuses of civil rights, you own, up close and personal.
And do you think this guy is making a play to run for office in some upcoming election? Maybe as a write in candidate? Isn’t Bush bashing the Democratic strategy this election cycle:

Al-Qaida No. 2 Ayman al-Zawahri condemned President Bush in a video statement released Friday, calling him a failure and a liar. “Why don’t you tell them how many million citizens of America and its allies you intend to kill in search of the imaginary victory and in breathless pursuit of the mirage towards which you are driving your people’s sons in order increase your profits?”

The Democrats make Al-Qaida’s job so much easier.
Bitter? Why, yes, how did you notice?
