Dear fellow member of the Carter Center Board of Councilors,
This has been a difficult time for us. As members of the Board of Councilors of the Carter Center we have endeavored to promote the efforts of the Carter Center in our community. However, the recent book authored by President Carter "Palestine; Peace not Apartheid" and his comments in the press made while promoting the book have given us pause in our efforts. We are deeply troubled by the President's comments and writings and are submitting the following letter of resignation to the Carter Center. We wanted to inform you, our fellow Board members, of our actions and encourage you to contact us if you have any questions regarding our resignation.
Dear President Carter,
As members of the Board of Councilors each one of us has been proud to be associated with the Carter Center in its noble struggle to repair the world. However, in light of the publication of your latest book Palestine; Peace Not Apartheid and your subsequent comments made in promoting the book, we can no longer in good conscience continue to serve the Center as members of the Board of Councilors.
In its work in conflict resolution the Carter Center has always played the useful and constructive role of honest broker and mediator between warring parties. In your book, which portrays the conflict between Israel and her neighbors as a purely one-sided affair with Israel holding all of the responsibility for resolving the conflict, you have clearly abandoned your historic role of broker in favor of becoming an advocate for one side.
The facts in dealing with the conflict are these: There are two national narratives contesting

"I hope this embarrasses the hell out of that buffoon who thinks he sees killer rabbits."
You know damn well dems are NOT CAPABLE of admitting wrong or being embarrassed. Remember klinton, burgler, reno, et al.
Rosalyn is as bad as Jimmy.
He doesn't know the meaning of the word embarrasment- He's a virulent anti-Semite and nothing will disuade him from his hatred of Jews and America for supporting the Jews. Not even his own stupidity when people point it out to him will disuade him.

"His forthcoming eulogy is being written, insult after insult. "
Brings to mind the movie "Miracle on 34th Street" when Edmond Gwenn chastises the store 'shrink' as being a small man, not just small in size but small minded.
That, my friends, is Jimmy Carter.
How many are left after these leave?
I did not remember any resignations when Jimma turned the entire nation of Venezuela over to a totalitarian communist warlord.
"noble struggle to repair the world"
Is that arrogant or what?
I truly believe Jimmah Cuahter has lost his marbles.
In his quest to achieve anything to eclipse his ignominious tenure as U.S. President, he slided deeper and deeper into the hardcore left. A sorry spectacle to witness.
It's about time the someone told the old fool off.
You know, Nancy had the decency to pull President Reagan out of the limelight when he started losing his marbles. She didn't wait for Ron to ruin the memories that we all had of a hard working, vibrant man.
All this BS with Carter isn't doing anything but kick dirt on the good things he did with Habitat for Humanity.
You'd think one of his loved ones would quietly herd Jimmy back inside his house.
My, My. Jimmuh got a smackdown from his own think tank.
Roslyn used to be spokeswoman for the GA Mental Health Alliance, so she should know where to go to get help for Jimmy.
Glad to read of this.
After all the dictators Carter supported, it takes THIS for these people to quit their jobs? Were they born stupid or did they finally hit bottom after living a life of being stupid? Or, did they simply run out of excuses for Carter?
Isn't that the truth!
It looks like anti-semitism has reared its ugly head.
That's a real barn burner, isn't it?
Now, that's a killer rabbit.
