Jimmy Carter Calls Barack Obama A "Black Boy"

Can you really say that on TV and get away with it? If it was George Bush, SR all hell would break out about the racist GOP.

Did anybody catch this interview of Jimmy Carter at the DNC last week. If a Republican made this statement you would have Jess and Al screaming and playing the race card. Why does Jimmy get a free pass.

I did see it covered by Hannity and Colmes.

Silly you. Don’t you remember that Democrats can’t be racist? Only Republicans can!

It appears Jimmah must have been discussing Obama’s nomination with Senator Byrd.

Only if you're a Democrat.

Don’t think Obama - or any of the black race hucksters who enforce political correctness on these matters - will chastise ol’ Jimmah on this one.

Why the hell not? I'll wait for him to gum the words... "Jimmy crack corn and I don't care, ol' massa gone away..."

Believe it or not... I still remember this song from 30 years ago! My younger brother had to sing it with his CLASSMATES at a public school function... And this was in California... my... how times have changed.

I think when Carter used the word “boy” he was thinking of Obama’s boyhood, not intending to call an adult black man “boy” as was the custom for so long where he is from, but he didn’t express himself very well. If a Republican had said this, no one would give him the benefit of the doubt—he’d be flayed alive.

Actually, he was referring to Barry O as a boy during that time that Barry O was a boy. I heard the sound bite.

But is anyone surprised? He’s already been exposed as an anti-Semite; now apparently Jimmuh is exposing himself asa anti-black.

And no Democrat will condemn him for it. Simple reason? They share his attitude. That’s why they’re the Party of Tolerance.

I completely disagree.

He was obviously referring to Obama as a child. Pointing out his poor choice of a word is petty and counter productive.

I know it sucks to have Republicans falsely accused of racism but it doesn't justify doing it in return. And certainly not with this blatently false accusation.

Well, at least he got it right. He did say a black boy not a black man.

You can if you're Jimmah!

1. He is mostly ignored.

2. He is senile.

Yes, you are right.

However, in the present climate the dishonest Mainstream Media (MSM) would have taken the bite out of context and bludgeoned any Republican with his/her own words.

Yes...but you know how old leftists die! They just get meaner, and uglier, and older! They die like Ted (hic!) Kennedy is dying. Even when they get fatal brain tumors they linger on for SOOOO long. It's as if they're being artificially sustained... sort of like the ring of Sauron did to Gollum in Tolkien's trilogy.

Maybe we'll get our wish from all of his mouth kissing that he did on Arafat the homo. But I doubt it. He'll linger on for years and periodically fester up like an irritating pimple on the collective backside of America.

I do wish he would shut his trap though. Nobody cares what he says. :-)
