Jimmy Carter,first American ex-president to be a traitor to his country

While the press may assail Jimmy's trips, may it also note, the parellel confusion of the American government issuing an arrest warrant for a master chess player for participation in a chess game rematch against a former world chessmaster adversary Spassky in Yugoslavia in 1992 in defiance of the UN's embargo.

Jimmy, a former president and peanut farmer, is able to fly around the world learning to teach terrorists about good will and love for their fellow man and misrepresent America's foreign policy, and therefore, my question is why is Jimmy not a criminal or have an arrest warrant issued to him.

Jimmy can do what he wants, insult successor presidents and invoke his foreign policy, acting like a layman practing law without a license, or making fraudulent claims with the assistance of foreign heads of states or institutions in name of his quasi-political agenda as private citizen/ex-president of the USA, but as long as he does not play chess, he is not breaking the law. What is going on?

As former president, he holds title to top secret information and therefore is a liability and should have been prosecuted. He should have had his passport and title as president of the USA revoked, and sent to Guantonoma, to do what he does best, growing peanuts, to feed to his muslim brethren...call it community service. At least our American soldiers who fought under his leadership (Lebanon and Iran hostage rescue failure) will not be dismayed anymore with the thought of having such a buffoon to lead this great nation into military action again.

False statements

After much research I'm tired of the endless bashing of israel with false information, such as "the real terrorist". Israel has never gone in anywhere when they weren't under fire by those who'd said in writing their goal -- to wipe Israel off the face of the earth.

Dear Likud/Hamas

Likud's new party also lead by Sharon, Kadmina, withdrew from Gaza. It does not throw leaders of other Israel political parties off roofs so that there is no one for Arabs to talk wtih. They do not have a charter with a goal of destroying others. Their charter talks about compromise & peace! Try it sometime.

Likud/Hamas

Likud and its predecessors are no different than hamas imo

jimmy carter-middle east

If we make Israel another state-maybe then we dont have to send 10 billion dolars of aid and thus will be subject to US Laws.

the real terrorist

if people can't see that israel has more blood on their hands than any other terrorist ever had....how many women and children did they kill with one bomb..but its okay cause israel has a right to defend....remember....when they go into neighbouring countrys and take stratigic sites, water, food and peoples dignity..no wonder why millions of people hate em....

just too bad they have control on america.....all the U.S needs are more lying bloodthirsty warloving businessmen telling the people what to think

JD in New York, I am very impressed. Thank you for speaking clearly and rightly. I applaud your fantastic response.

Re: Carter...Treason

I feel that President Carter has comitted Treason and should be tried. The fact that an ex president of The United States went on television and released classified information about our allies on behalf of our enemies is treason. There is no way around it. If one of our soldiers did what he did yesterday they would be in Levinworth so fast your head would spin. Shameful and shocking behavior from someone with access to confidential information. They should at lease take his passport!

What the 2009 Elections Tell Us About 2010

By Tom Davis

Seven lessons the parties need to learn from Tuesday's races.

The 2009 off-year elections in Virginia, New Jersey, and New York's 23d Congressional District offer a small snapshot of the current views and motivations of the American electorate. While there may be a desire to extrapolate the events of Nov. 3, 2009 into a prediction of what will happen on Nov. 2, 2010, that is impossible.
