Jimmy Carter: The “overwhelming” portion of animosity towards Obama is racist
posted at 9:01 pm on September 15, 2009 by Allahpundit
Deep thoughts from the guy whose book on Israel was most recently plugged by, um, Osama Bin Laden. I’m tempted to tout Jesse Walker’s Reason piece for the third time today on HA as an explanation for Jimmeh’s cynicism here, but I can’t quite do it. The difference between Carter and most of the left, I think, is that he really believes this crap. And, to boot, he really believes he’s doing good by mentioning it rather than poisoning race relations by equating opposition to government expansion with white supremacism.
It’s pointless to try to explain to people like this that they’re well well well into “boy who cried wolf” territory when it comes to the race card, but Brit Hume’s going to try. You’ll find the clip of that below the Carter video.

Update (Ed): Just FYI, conservative blogs seem to be plagued at the moment by trolls using racially inflammatory language as a way to make Carter’s point. We’ve warned about this before, but I’ll say it again — people making racist comments in these threads will get banned with no warning and no debate. If you can’t make your point without dropping the “N” word or a variant, then hit the road. I’ve deleted several such comments, as well as responses that excerpted the language.

How can anyone ascribe any credence to an anti-semite in the first place. Jimmy Carter has no credibility, he demonstrated that when his held the Office that Obama is currently occupying. The best thing we, as a country, can do is to turn our backside to Jimmy and shun him for being an anti-semite. We should ignore him because he is nothing more than a political hack pushing the meme of “It’s America’s fault for what is wrong in the world”.
Jimmah, its time for you to STFU and slide off into the sunset.

I presume crr6, afrolib, BleedsBlue, terryonline, and the ever-popular AnninCA are on there as well. And possibly The Dean, too.

That sounds suspiciously like criticism; I believe a former president has label for you.

This guy is irrelevant……he shouldn’t be given the time of day.

If that is the case, why does BHO have to extend them?
Hint, we’re fighting an enemy that is hiding among us. Do you want them to know how we can track them, so they can devise methods to escape the surveillance? Given what has happened in New York this week kinda brings that fact to light once again.
Seizing control of one fifth of the economy and instituting new goverment regulations on ALL citizens from cradle to grave is far more invasive than the Patriot Act. At least the Patriot Act still has provisions to protect freedoms in it. ObamaCare seeks to eliminate any of that.
Then you don’t read much past Daily KOS and the Huffington Report. Conservatives WERE worried about the spending, but saw the need, as we were fighting an enemy with no central location and global reach. BUT, BHO hasn’t been in office a year yet, and has already jacked the annual deficit to a point Bush didn’t reach with 4 years combined! The deficit spending up to through month of July alone raised the debt more than bush’s last 3 years combined.
I guess BHO really has you snowed. If you cannot see the change in direction government goes in based on who runs congress and who’s in the White House, then you should pull your head out of your ass and look around sometime.

all carter knows about is being a hateful, anti-semitic, left-wing wacko….ie a typical liberal.
right4life on September 16, 2009 at 9:57 AM
Now the spokesman for the Liberal party is a half-dead senile old loser president who wears diapers and smokes opium with terrorists in caves abroad? This nut got cracked years ago.

right2bright on September 16, 2009 at 9:59 AM
And where is Carter’s,Maureen Dowd’s,kurtz’s,and other liberals proof of all this “racism” coming from the “extremist”.
Well there is none.
None at all.
Just these liberals “feelings” and imaginary pronouncements of hearing “boy” in their heads.
The stereotypical bigotry of liberals to believe that Obama is so great that no one can appose him unless it is based on the color of his skin is breathtakingly ignorant.
The goalposts have been moved so far that you now don’t even have to have actually said or done anything racist,it is just so because liberals “believe it” to be so.
Expose Charlie Rangel’s tax corruption…..smear campaign because some people can’t handle a black man in a powerful position.
Expose Van Jones support of cop killers,his admittance to being a communist and 9/11 truther…..Smear and lie campaign to bring down another successful black man.
Expose ACORN’s support of prostitution,tax evasion,voter fraud,and trafficking in child prostitution…. lie and smear campaign to bring down minorities.
Expose Obama’s lies,dis-information,and hypocrisy on just about every political issue….you are a racist and can’t handle a black man being President.
Besides the pathetically transparent racial hustling going on by liberals there is another main theme that is consistent:…liberals have not produced any proof or actual words and actions to back up these “racist” accusations supposedly perpetrated in a systematic manner.
None…
Nada…..
In fact,the only people constantly talking and passing judgment based on the color of someone’s skin is the very people yelling the loudest about it.

t.ferg on September 16, 2009 at 10:09 AM
The Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary defines Racism as: “racial prejudice or discrimination”
In other words: ‘Judging people based on their race’
Question: Who is constantly judging people based on their race?
Who is constantly impugning the motives of people based on what race they are?
What group continually uses race to determine people’s motives?
We don’t really know the reason’s behind the animosity towards Obama, but we DO know that Jimmy Carter and others are Judging people based on what race they are.
So who are the TRUE racists????
Chainsaw56 on September 16, 2009 at 10:10 AM
Like the birthers and truthers before him, former President Carter is investing in a ridiculous, unfounded idea that fits his ideological agenda. I suggest we call such believers “HATERS,” because they believe a big portion of our country simply hates and does not have legitamite concerns about government policy. This is a minority view according to Rasmussen, BTW….they find only 12% of Americans agree with Carter, notably 78% of independents disagree with him! Jimmy Carter….a hater….he has cast a harsh judgement on the hearts of his fellow Americans and I will not join him in being so arrogant and hateful.
cee on September 16, 2009 at 10:10 AM
I wish we had youtube from the 1960′s. I was living in Georgia at the time and saw a debate on TV between Jimmy Carter and his Atlanta opponent. I think Julian Bond was running for election for something from the Atlanta area. Carter’s opponent has to say that he was going to vote for Julian Bond. Carter put a big fat grin on his face and said: I can’t vote for him because I am not in his district. And then said I AM SUPPORTING GEORGE WALLACE. I think Jimmy Carter is at heart a racist and believes that others are also.
jeannie on September 16, 2009 at 10:11 AM
Does Carter not realize we all hate him too… and he’s not black?
Socmodfiscon on September 16, 2009 at 10:12 AM
Ah, but his heart is.
Shy Guy on September 16, 2009 at 10:20 AM
Nice to know he remains the same Jimmy Carter we all knew and loved when he was President
Rockman44 on September 16, 2009 at 10:23 AM
So tell me. If a Republican wins the White House in 2012 do you seriously think the deficit goes away, all government spending stops, the world has endless prosperity, public schools get better, all abortions stop, and we defeat all threats against the country?
No. If a Republican replaces Obama in 2012, the endless political cycle continues and the government continues to spend. There is no difference between Obama and Bush. Just different cheerleaders. You sir are simply a Republican cheerleader. A pawn to be used for Fox News ratings.
Decider on September 16, 2009 at 10:26 AM
How about we DON’T give news cycles away to people who became irrelevant DECADES ago?
How about we focus on the vulnerabilities of the radical regime we find ourselves under and stop giving credence to whatever hapless distraction they throw up onto the wall hoping one would stick?
Carter’s observation is as predictable as it is specious. EVERYONE would be more surprised if he sprouted butterfly wings and started sprinkling fairy dust than if he had claimed that criticism of the only president to share his political delusions is based on anything other than hatred.
Let’s ignore the old fool and keep undermining the popular front that’s keeping HR3200 afloat.
The more pressure we put on ACORN is more pressure on SEIU. The more marginalized and vulnerable SEIU becomes on a national framework is less pressure on Blue Dogs to compromise. The less pressure on blue dogs to compromise means a weakened or even defeated HR3200.
Khorum on September 16, 2009 at 10:27 AM
It’s not about the color of his skin, it’s about the content of his character. Sorry if this has been said before.
long_cat on September 16, 2009 at 10:28 AM
Carter was a gutless a$$clown and will go down in history as one of worst presidents in the history of these great United States. Eh, I guess that means I hate all white folks.

I’m being very careful about who I label a troll as I’ve seen a bit of troll calling that seems inaccurate. So, I do a lot of research first.
crr6 and afrolib, yes, definitely. And both of them also very often need disproving. There are 36 actives on my list. As to the others you mention, all but one are not on my troll list.
And Ann is just here to participate!
I am concerned.

Yes, indeed.
Loxodonta on September 16, 2009 at 10:34 AM
So, if you read a 1,200 page bill, and find something you don’t like, you’re racist.
If you disagree with Nancy Pelosi’s handling of the health care debate, you’re racist.
If you like Obama’s effort in Afghanistan and Somolia, but don’t like his health care agenda, you’re racist.
If you voted for Obama, but don’t like the health care plan, you’re racist.
If you want poor black people to have a better opportunity to get quality health care (ie – by lowering taxes, making health care portable, and keeping low-cost insurance options), you’re racist.
hawksruleva on September 16, 2009 at 10:35 AM
Exactly.
If I may be so bold, the issue of Race is irrelevant to most Conservatives. Most voted the way they did based on agendas and character, Not on race.
My main point is that the leftist that are constantly obsessed with race – and if that is their primary focus what does that say about them?

jeanie on September 16, 2009 at 10:39 AM
Ahh….the point of making ALL public offices a revolving door is to change the corrupt culture in that pig-sty we call Washington, D.C. If every person running for public office understands that it is no longer a power base for his/her personal fiefdom, the better we will be. The real catch is to vote them all out of office every election, that way they won’t have enough time to figure out how to screw us.
belad on September 16, 2009 at 10:39 AM
The US govt owns 42% of General Motors, and Obama is touting how awesome cool it would be if Blue Shield and Aetna had to compete with the Government. What’s so ridiculous about it? Newsweek wore the socialist label like a badge of honor a year ago. Get a dictionary.

If I may interject, I would agree on those two – although I like the term ‘putz’ as in Pop Up Tollz.
I wouldn’t classify Ann in the same category by any stretch of the imagination – despite the fact that she uses a Flexi-lead, LOL
Chainsaw56 on September 16, 2009 at 10:43 AM
Let us not forget that through this all, the Democrats are simply trying to atone – in their own, thoroughly misguided way – for their grievous sins past and present, in the words of Frances Rice, as “the party of slavery, secession, segregation and socialism.”
Track-A-'Crat on September 16, 2009 at 10:44 AM
I read that the congressional black caucus was leading the charge to rebuke Joe Wilson. So … it isn’t racism when a group comprised of one race makes charges of alleged racism against an individual of another race?
Democrats confound me into a state like Gumby playing mental twister!

Jimmy Carter: The “overwhelming” portion of animosity towards Obama is racist
The overwhelming portion of animosity towards Carter is that he is an idiot!
PrincipledPilgrim on September 16, 2009 at 10:53 AM
If you disagree with anything obama says, any of his policies, you’re a racist. How does Carter account for the white people who work in Obama’s administration? Or the white people who support and elected him?
That’s a broad brush Carter is using, maybe he should stop watching network news so much!
TN Mom on September 16, 2009 at 11:00 AM
I seriously do not think Conservatives would be questioning that the President was an American or creating such an uproar for a school speech if he was White. Conservatives disagreed with Bill Clinton on the issues such as healthcare not on superfluous topics such as that.
Decider on September 16, 2009 at 11:03 AM
Great. Carter just handed a case of ammo to the nutjobs who really-and-truly think that Obama is planning melt-and-repour. (The Right’s equivalent of those who were certain that Bush would declare an emergency, suspend the Constitution, and install himself as Fuhrer.)
Here’s the line they’ll use: “If you criticise Obama you’re a racist. So criticism is the President is now hate speech. So ANY DAY NOW criticism of Obama will be a prosecutable offense. The sky is falling!”
It’s absolute bosh from beginning to end but a dollar gets you a doughnut some fool is gonna say it and mean it.

That is true, and combining them all really makes for a toxic brew.
What they don’t realize is that their racial obsession makes them the True racists.
Most Conservatives find race to be an irrelevant factor in judging someone.
It some how doesn’t occur to them that we oppose their big government agenda even though it is lead by people of varying ethnicities and genders.
Chainsaw56 on September 16, 2009 at 11:12 AM
If policy dissent is to be equated with racism at every turn one of two things will happen. Either the charge of racism will totally lose its sting or the American people will never again elect a minority President. “Shut up you racist he explained” can never be the basis for healthy civic life.
Mason on September 16, 2009 at 11:19 AM
Disputing anyone’s policies, re Hillary Clinton’s rant, is not racist.
Writing an anti-Israeli book filled with lies and one-sided distortions and Jewish hatred is racism.
dthorny on September 16, 2009 at 11:19 AM
Only a few questioned his citizenship, and that issue has arisen before.

At least Bill Clinton knew when he was wrong.
Chainsaw56 on September 16, 2009 at 11:20 AM
We’re you around during Clinton’s term or did you just arrive on the planet in the year 2000?
Clinton was our “first black President”. Opposition to him was termed “racism”, especially when the Republicans wanted welfare reform, which he refused to sign until his advisors kicked him in the ass and made him pay attention.
You don’t remember, “it’s a private matter” and that we were using his abuse of a subordinate and his perjury as a mere excuse to bring down his agenda?
“Progressives” didn’t consider any criticism of Bill Clinton to be legitimate during his term and this is no different.

Take a look at the Merriam-Webster online Dictionary Definition for Racism
1 : a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race
2 : racial prejudice or discrimination
If you use race to judge a person, isn’t that Racism?
Who is primarily using race to judge people?
Chainsaw56 on September 16, 2009 at 11:28 AM
Jimmy is good for building houses and such. For all other things foreign and domestic, ehhh—not so much.
I remember gas lines, Jimmy.
I remember when my dad could barely buy milk for 6 kids.
I remember the picture of our dead Delta operators and aircrew at Desert One.
I remember the sweaters and the malaise, and you gently banging your fist on your desk, chastising the American people. I remember it like yesterday.
I also remember the leap for joy we all made when hostages were released after 444 days, 52 hostages and Reagan became president.
Jimmy, your opinion regarding most matters—is irrelevant, you had your shot, and you failed. Now your failure of a presidency is being used by Carter Jr., to give you both relevance. It won’t work.

Did you understand my question?
Certain groups are using race to make judgment calls on people,
as in claiming that Joe Wilson made that remark not because Obama is a Liar, but because of his race.
Doesn’t that itself fit the definition of Racism?

Just saw Michael Steele response to Carter’s statement. Would it be racist of me to say I’m glad we have an African American heading up the RNC? Because of his personal experience of racism, Steele was able to make Carter look like the clown he is–and he did it with authority. Makes me wonder if the RNC didn’t anticipate this whole ‘racism’ meme and take it into consideration when they chose Steele.

Obama’s election has made race relations much worse — not because Conservatives dislike blacks but because Liberals hate Conservatives and screaming “RACIST!” has always successfully shut down debate before.
Unfortunately, overusing any tactic eventually makes the tactic toothless. That is happening now.

J_Crater on September 16, 2009 at 12:03 PM
Jimmy Carter suffers from white guilt, probably from growing up in the deep south, and cant come up with any logical reasons why people dont like this communist regime in the whitehouse.
.
.
.
William Ayers suffers from white guilt, probably from seeing his father drive around in the best that money can buy, as he was CEO of a utility company in Chicago. He couldn’t use logic to figure out why black people suffered, so he lashed out with bombs.
.
.
.
Illogical people who suffer from white guilt are very dangerous people. When things dont go their way, the first thing they turn to is “DISCRIMINATION!!!!!” “RAAAAAAAAAACIST!!!”
Logical people in general believe that we all are responsible for our own happiness,and our own well-being, as most successful people are.
I guess i just wanted to point out the similarities between Jimmy Carter and Bill Ayers, both dangerous in their own rights.
UNREPENTANT CONSERVATIVE CAPITOLIST on September 16, 2009 at 12:03 PM
The only people this nonsense hurts is the people who believe Carter.
It’s too bad too. I’m sure there are a lot of African Americans out there who are being taught that criticism directed towards them is always racial in nature, and that at any moment white people might just start riding through the hills again in white sheets.
Not much we can do about it either.

Kenosha Kid on September 16, 2009 at 12:17 PM
I never said Wilson was a racist however coming to that conclusion is simple:
1. He is from South Carolina.
2. He voted to keep the confederate flag on the capitol.
3. This type of outburst has never happened on the floor of the congress before. He has a transcript of the speech so no “surprises”.
4. He is a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans who want secession and defend slavery.
No it is not the definition of racism. It is more like prejudice or bigotry. My guess is that Wilson is so ingrained in hatred of Obama that comes from living on South Carolina that he actually thought others will join him in his outcry.
Decider on September 16, 2009 at 12:18 PM
We can point out that it is the Left that incessantly complains about racial issues.

Funny how Republicans seem to forget they rose to power using a technique known as the Southern Strategy. Bush43 even apologized for using that strategy in the past.
Is anyone here old enough to remember Jesse Helms? Jesse Helms was about to lose an election to a Black man, Harvey Gantt. He told White people in the now famous Hands Ad in North Carolina that if Grantt wins he will take their jobs and give them to Black people. Helms won reelection using that tactic.
Glenn Beck is currently using the same technique to solidify his audience. Republicans can act sanctimonious now about racism but it is was a major element of the Republican party’s past and is a major element of it’s future. We see it used everyday on Fox News.
Decider on September 16, 2009 at 12:34 PM
I’m sure this has been said, but the problem with the “racism” card and why it’s currency is depreciating is that it can’t be proved. The charge therefore is essentially un-American. It requires an assumption of bad faith. After awhile, this wears on the public consciousness and our collective sense of fairness. Making the charge indiscriminantly means sooner or later you’re going to accuse someone we all know and either like, trust or don’t believe is a racist, thus bringing home the sense of unfairness. I mean, maybe WE’LL be next.
rrpjr on September 16, 2009 at 12:37 PM
Great! You contradicted yourself in the first sentence.
So do a lot of other people, are they ALL racists?
So?
I guess you don’t know your history, do you? I guess the Boos of President Bush don’t count?
So You’re saying that Everyone that is a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans
wants that?
All extremely weak and circumstantial arguments.
Did you read the definition?
It doesn’t matter anyways, The point is that we don’t really know Why he did that, but we do know that people are judging him based on his race – and that in and of itself is Racism.

Anyone from SC is a racist.
Carter served under the Stars And Bars of Georgia for 4 years as Governor, and spent 4 years as POTUS without complaint.
You’re sure about this, right? No member of Congress has called the POTUS a “liar” on the floor of the House?
You’ll need to back this up with OQE. BTW, Abe Lincoln defended slavery, and argued that states had the right to secede. Was good ol’ Abe a racist?
Sorta like a really outpoken version of Rev’s. Jackson and Sharpton.
The liberal inside peeks out here. “I thought of it, so it can only be true. I have the power to make official judgements of other people based my ability to guess.”
Keep developing that gift, and one day maybe you too can become the White House press secretary and tell us what others actually meant, even if it seems in direct controversion to the words used.
