Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich compares President Obama to Jimmy Carter because of his "sense of confusion" of who our enemies are. Gingrich also criticizes Obama for his "unwillingness" to be "bold and positive about America when overseas."

One blacker, one cracker
I’d love to trade O for Jimmah.
The Obama comparisons to Carter will flow like Billy Beer when hyperinflation arrives.
feel free to flame me, but i believe jimmy carter did at least love america and want what is best for all of the american people. unlike oblabo who hates america and only wants what is best for himself and his zealot followers.
This evil 0bama is causing damage that only God will be able to repair.
Go Newt!
Just proves the point, no matter how bad things are they will get worse.
The only problem with the comparison is that Carter governed out of sheer naivete. Obama is smarter and ideologically driven (driven like the bus in the movie “Speed” that won’t slow down). This makes the ZerO much, much worse.
We are in the midst of Carter’s second term.
How long til' he apoligizes???..........
As Sgt. Dan asked Forrest and Bubba, “are ya’ll twins?
pray for our country
“feel free to flame me, but i believe jimmy carter did at least love america and want what is best for all of the american people. unlike oblabo who hates america and only wants what is best for himself and his zealot followers.”
This is not to flame you, but Jimmy Carter is a utopian simpleton. His actions as president were deplorable but his actions since are even worse. “Can’t we all just get along”? ring a bell?
He's being kind.
I served in the Navy during the Carter years, and I can tell you that he was the single worst Commander in Chief, this country has seen up until now.
He was the first "Blame America" president, and Obama is just the democrat's sequel to his administration. If he'd have been given a second term in office, the changes that Obama wants to bring us, wouldn't be necessary.
Also the man never met a third world dictator that he didn't love! Obama is merely a "Black" facsimile of Carter.
Truth is one can't, make a stand when one's
feet are planted in a foundation made of mush.

obozo is worse.
An insult to Carter.....if that’s possible.
Better get out the sweaters and paper bags. (Only you folks who lived through the Carter debacle will grasp that one.)
Back around 1975, Senator Frank Church held hearings on the operation of the CIA and found that -- HORRORS -- taxpayer money was being paid to foreign citizen snitches who had CRIMINAL RECORDS for vital human, on-the-ground intel on the activities of those who were planning the destruction of this country. Church commented at one session that "Gentlemen do not read other gentlemens’ mail." Interesting how Church and his fellow Dimocraps viewed men who would destroy America “gentlemen.” Glad that a**hole didn't serve during the run-up to WWII. (Although he may have handled the "delayed" communication to Pearl Harbor that the Japanese were on the way!)
When he became president, Jimmy Carter fully supported and enforced the Church Amendment. The sorts of people who consort with -- and, more importantly, get cozy with -- the leaders of terrorist organizations are not normally choir boys. Church moved the legislature to PROHIBIT any US funds going to these potential informants. Since it can take upwards of 20 years for these guys to move close enough to the top to be seriously valuable, we had virtually NO humintel on bin Laden's plans for 9-11!
While there are still Church-like imbeciles (Reid, Pelosi, et come to mind) at the levers of power here, I THINK the law has been changed.
While the NSA wiretaps and eavesdrops on US citizens HERE, isn't it comforting to know that in just 15 or 20 years we may be able to thwart a plan hatched THERE for some future 9-11 with information gathered THERE.
Anybody else see a pattern here?
“Also the man never met a third world dictator that he didn’t love! Obama is merely a “Black” facsimile of Carter. “
Very true and both are Anti Semitic.
Sorry guys, but given how he has retreated on Sotomayor, I expect a retraction from Gingrich in about a week.
....Except that Barack Obama isn’t black. He’s a dark-complected white man trying to fake being black.
He was raised by white people, went to a rich white-boys’ school in Hawaii, the white-kids’ colleges at Occidental, Columbia and Harvard. He went to Chicago at the age of 23 to learn how to pretend to be black.
His father, who abandoned him, was from the LUO tribe of East Africa, feared in history for its slave-raiding of nearby tribes.
It is possible. Carter used to grow peanuts. 0bobblehead has never done anything that productive in his life.
It took a Carter to get a Reagan.
That is one of the most beautiful pictures ever made! I was an unemployed construction worker in the fall of 1980. I spent many hours walking the neighborhoods of my hometown of Tucson, AZ handing out Reagan campaign brocures.
Carter was a middleman - he didn’t pull weeds.
And 0bama did what?

Hi:
“I just crapped in and peed in my pants, and it feels wonderful.”
Jimmy himself was reported to have preferred Pabst Blue Ribbon.
