DevilHorse, you do have the right to say whatever you wish. I'm thankful for our freedom. People might understand me a bit more if they knew my family's military history and the stress we face every day. Not only did my brother serve in Iraq but here's a partial list of close family members who are there NOW or have been within the past 5 months. My daughter, son-in-law, grandson, 2 nephews, niece & her husband and there are other distant relatives as well. The stress seems never to ease and I understand that other families are suffering as much as mine.
Not only do the Muslims in the middle east hate us; we have some that are "home grown" who do also, and let's not forget Islam. One peaceful (?) purring reverend comes to mind. Who knows the plans that are being hatched while they pretend to be in the mosques, churches, temples or whatever right here in the United States. I recall the leader of the first bombing in NY.
As for Jimmy Carter, he still has an ego as big as the state of Georgia and just has to hear something about himself in the news. Seeing himself in the mirror each day just isn't enough. I think he should stick to what he does best, and that's building houses for Habitat for Humanity. There is still some good in that old geezer.
