Hayward: I got sick and tired of hearing people describe Carter as "our finest ex-President."

Man, I understand that feeling. After the initial gag reflex, I just have to bite my tongue when somebody says that. Anybody who says that Carter is "a fine ex-President" is too ignorant, stupid, or far-left to bother discussing the matter.

Sure, Habitat for Humanity can be commended for some good works for poor folks. Carter has a winner there and has pumped it for all the photo ops and publicity he can. But otherwise, he has been a thoroughly awful ex-President.

The thing is, that Habitat for Humanity, was all he had for many years. (Or so it seemed.) However, when Nixon died, he got his own personal wake-up call, and decided to work on 'peace'. (I don't remember when his so-called "Carter Center" was actually created.[actually 1982])

His problem is that he thinks that appeasment leads to peace, not war or destruction.
