April 24, 2008 -- So much for Jimmy Carter's triumphal peace mission in the Middle East. Like everything else he has done on foreign policy, the world's biggest tool for jihad propaganda created yet another bloody mess. Quick review:

After proclaiming that Hamas terrorists were willing to accept Israel as a "neighbor next door," Carter's Hamas-hug buddies flipped him the bird. They gladly accepted the diplomatic legitimacy his visit conferred on them, while clinging bitterly to their insistence on the Jewish state's destruction.

Exactly!  We spend decades marginalizing terrorits, and in one fell swoop, this jackass eleveates them to International Statesmen.

Michelle is such a gem.

Senator John McCain wants to be the figure-head of Conservatism.  Okay, lets think that out...

John McCain becomes President.  He's still the same old John McCain.

The RNC backs his liberal policies to maintain a position of power
The Republicans in Congress back his polices to maintain access to the White House
Republican candidates for Congressional seats move to the left, since John McCain proved that moving to the left assures
RNC support  and
votes
The Republican party leadership at the state level moves left as McCain and the RNC demand it
Republican candidates at the state level move to the left, since John McCain proved that moving to the left assures Republican support and votes
Republican Conservative office holders across the nation will be silenced
Apologists on Conservative forums across this nation defend McCain against the few Conservatives who are left, and attack them there (forums move left)
Last but not least, the Democrats move even farther left to differentiate themselves from McCain

Who writes Conservative bills and rams them through state or federal government after that?

Who talks about Conservatism from a position of power?  Who takes the chance to disagree with McCain on anything?

Under a John McCain Presidency, Conservatism ceases to become a movement, and becomes a theory.  It will no longer be practiced by enough politicians to be viable.

Under leftist McCain, there is no functional opposition.  Promoting leftist policy, it all passes without opposition, nobody objects to the liberal policies
Under leftist Hillary or Barack, there is not only a functional opposition, it grows by leaps and bounds in objection to their policies

We saw what a one party system did to Arkansas under Clinton.  It was terrible.  Now we want to install that in our federal government, leftists one and all.

No thanks.  Color me dumb, but I'm not voting to turn the U.S. into 1980s Arkansas.

LINK: Welcome to McCain's impact on State level Republican party leadership, it's happening
LINK: Welcome to McCain's impact on Republican Conservative office holder voices, it's happening
LINK: Welcome to McCain's impact on Conservative forums, it's happening

Folks, you either wake the hell up, or doom conservatism to oblivion.  After November the 4th, it's too late.  You will have silenced Conservatism in our nation for four or eight years, and quite possibly forever.

Hillary, Obama and Jimmy Carter. Birds of a feather. McCain? Certainly not as bad but I'm not very happy with him. In my life I can't remember a presidential election where we have to choose between cyanide and hemlock.

Amen! I hate to make statements like this, but so goes the nation.

If we are this addled, then we’re in a serious world of hurt!

Not all of us are this addled but it seems many are. That's the problem.

No need to remind anyone here what an idiot Jimmy Carter is.

I agree.

The only reason I said ‘if we as a people’ is because it begins to look as if the public of the United States, the We The People, are collectively losing it.

I realize many of us haven’t, but the end result will be the same as if every one of us had lost it.

You, I, and others have to find a way to turn this around.

“No need to remind anyone here what an idiot Jimmy Carter is.”

Your statement is an insult to idiots.

The only time you give up is when you are dead. At that point you have no choice.

It is not necessary for us to color you dumb. You do very well yourself.

Suit yourself - but don’t waste our time by attempting to drag the rest of us down into your fevered, lobotomized, suicidal descent.

Someone please tell Jimmy “the crypt keeper” Carter that he died many years ago!

I’m no fan of Carter and didn’t vote for him (because he’s too liberal). But this article is disingenuous — the U.S. has often negotiated with terrorists (Stalin, Mao, Begin, Hussein, Arafat, to name a few); so what’s the big deal that Carter talked to one?

Another bitter, bitter, unhappy liberal bites the dust. I WISH.

He’s the cause of whatever is going on in Iran and the Middle East right now because of his buddying up to Khomeini and kicking the Shah out of Iran. I hope he pays for that one day.

Carter is paying for it. He wants a legacy and he has one. A big looser.
