So you operate under the theory that you have no obligation to refrain from hurting your wife? Just toss it out there in the public domain that you lust after women other than your wife? Who cares if that really hurts a woman you’ve been with for decades? Hey, “You’re the man!”
May not have been the brightest bulb? Yeah, maybe not. How about, “I do not think that is a dignified question.” Next. If you wish the interview to be over now, we can stop.
No, I’m not saying I want to see the man dead. His time will come.
I’m just not going to watch people be an apologist for the second worst president we’ve ever had, and without a doubt the worst former president we’ve ever had so far.
As for how I do in the end, I’m open to the same criticism as anyone else. I won’t be selling my nation out to prove what a caring man I am.
You don’t cast pearls before swine....you have to be mindful of the audience you are venting your spleen to. Of course one might admit one’s weaknesses...with other Christian males at a prayer breakfast; for scripture tells us to “confess one’s faults one to another”. Scripture doesn’t tell us to confess them to a writer from Playboy who will probably deliberately misinterpret and misconstrue the context from which your true confessions derive!
I believe had Carter made these comments to a writer from Christianity Today(of 1978-79 not today’s mess), we would have had a more contextualized and better understanding of what Carter was trying to say as opposed to the slanderous mess we got from Playboy.
