If youre a left-of-center media personality and you use your national TV platform to call a candidate for the United States Senate a bitch, how might you be rewarded? Apparently in this day and age, youre granted an interview with a former sitting president of your political party.
Even though he wasnt one of the most distinguished presidents of the United States, former President Jimmy Carter appeared on Joy Behars HLN program to promote his book, White House Diary. During his interview, Behar asked Carter to offer his assessment of Barack Obamas performance as president.

I know he’s as treasonous as can be.
And he’s as UNBiblical in his beliefs as any SO CALLED So Bap I’ve ever heard of.
Is he also terminally stupid?
What? Failure of the media to worship Obama hard enough? That’ll tank a president’s ratings every time. Complete worship in every way is required.
Is he also terminally stupid?
Yes. But he’s smart enough to know he’s no longer the worst president ever.
We are living in the age of insanity.
What more could the media have possibly done to pimp Obama since he oozed onto the public stage? Lie and claim that unemployment is 3% and world peace has broken out?
But, I thought Carter was happy that he wouldn’t be remembered as the “Worst President” in US history!
I'd be rich quick, and in the very near future to boot.
I feel better now that somebody I admire as much as Jimmy Carter vouches for 0bama. Bwahahaha.
ahhhh, Joy....

If the media had been “responsible” Obama’s Numbers would be even LOWER. Not to mention he may not have made it past hist first primary if the birthers are to be believed.
Jimmy! It’s all of those radical Amish who you should blame.
LOL.
sigh.
I wonder what he thinks of the media’s coverage of Governor Palin?
The MSM’s the only reason Zero’s approval rating isn’t in single digits.
If GWB had this clown’s MSM fawning, he’d be the most popular President ever.
When will MSNBC do a story on how Obama has taken 3 trillion dollars away from our kids and grandkids,much of it going down the drain and to keep the unions afloat?
Yes, yes and Yes,Yes,Yes. Also an Idiot.
You know, every now and then a blind hog will find an acorn, and every now and then, Jimmy Carter can be right, even when it’s for the completely wrong reason!
Carter is right, in that the Obama’s low ratings are because of the media. They anointed him as their (and America’s) Messiah. He was the one who was going to heal the planet, and lower the seas (didn’t he actually say that in one of his speeches?) The media didn’t just put him on a pedestal, they presented him as the only choice to save the nation from the evils of the previous 8 years of republicans.
So assuming that Obama isn’t really the Messiah, he was bound to fail. Couple that with the very real fact that Obama is a typical Chicago political thug, which the media didn’t just “miss,” they actively hid it from their audience. They didn’t just hide the fact that nobody really knew anything about this guy, they hoisted a bunch of lies upon the public. Even worse, I distinctly remember one news show where a roundtable of pundits assured their audience that Obama wasn’t going to govern as a hard core leftist, even though he had years of statements that kept trickling out proving what a leftist he was. “No, no, he didn’t really mean it way back then...” The “Joe the Plumber” incident should have been enough to prove to the world that Obama was STILL a hardcore leftist, but instead the media attacked “Joe the Plumber.”
There was no way he could possibly stay popular once the public realized what a leftist he really was. And it was the fault of the media for presenting him as something decent and reasonable, which of course he’s not, and they fooled a majority of the electorate.

And an arrogant idiot.
