I think you are right. As president, Carter was merely one of the stupidest liberals who ever lived. Now he is pure evil, to the core. I think the slow recognition of what a total failure he was as president turned him into the hateful and malicious cockroach he is today.
His presidency will be forever seen as one of incompetence and failure. And he has accomplished the amazing feat of cementing that perception during his post-presidency.
But he must be a very happy man these days knowing that Obama will permanently take his place at the bottom of the list of presidents.
You are exactly right. Then Carter tried to do an ex-president rehabilitation with his volunteer projects like Habitat for Humanity...and it worked for awhile. But then he started off on his “visit every American hating despot” tour, like visits to North Korea, even during the Klinton years. Then came the hate Bush speeches even when Dubya invited him back to the WH. He is a venal, hate America, angry man.
