Laurian (1,581 posts)I wish online newspapers would stop allowing comments.I live in the Atlanta metro area and went to the AJC online edition to catch up on today's developments. I was sickened to see some hateful comments made by assholes hiding behind screen names.What can such ignorant (often illiterate) jerks possibly add to a news story? Why allow them to spew such ugliness? Who cares what they think?I've been quite sad about President Carter's health problems, but was heartened by his grace and spirit during today's press conference. To think anyone would be mean and disrespectful at a time like this makes me lose faith in the human race.
Well, I think it's only natural that people tend to be somewhat unwarm in remembering someone who was a really nasty person and lousy president.
There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
I don't know that he was a nasty person, but CERTAINLY an absolutely lousy President. That having been said, I wish him the best in these struggles. Gotta be rough for someone of his age to try to get through such a disease.

I'm looking at a book on my bookshelf, right now, titled The Real Jimmy Carter, written by Steve Hayward (Regnery Press). It pretty much confirms what you say, and also tells just how dirty he could be in politics.
Jimmah is now the second worst president in our history.That's all I got.
Yeah...... never thought it possible.
Just wait until The Donald gives you four years of President Slow Joe.
