Jimmy Carter Accuses Obama Admin of ‘Widespread Abuse of Human Rights’

[Vidi]

Ok thanks. There were a few on the right who did call him a traitor it seems. SOME on he left called Bush a traitor for the same policy Obama is carrying on. Heck I see them calling Romney a traitor all ready. It does not mean that everyone agrees with them though.

Either way, Carter told it like it was.

Traitor gets thrown around an awful lot.

Dissent does not make one a traitor.

Personally though, I think Carters getting a bit senial. He seems to forget Obama tried to move the GitMo detainees and was met with overwhelming opposition when it was elarned he wanted to move them onto American homeland soil. Is it a broken promise? Yes. Is it underastandable? Yes.

Theres far more important things to jump on Obama for.

Closing GTMO is really not the only issue here. Leaving GTMO open and continuing the rights violations are more important, wouldn’t you agree? Look at the extraordinary rendition, and the claims of detainees that say torture has continued under Obama at GTMO. As far as Traitor, I saw/see Joe the Plumber being called a traitor for asking a question. It's insane.

Everything you said in that post is true.

A former U.S. president is accusing the current president of sanctioning the “widespread abuse of human rights” by authorizing drone strikes to kill suspected terrorists...

Instead of making the world safer, America’s violation of international human rights abets our enemies and alienates our friends,” Carter wrote...

In addition to the drone strikes, Carter criticized the current president for keeping the Guantanamo Bay detention center open, where prisoners “have been tortured by waterboarding more than 100 times or intimidated with semiautomatic weapons, power drills or threats to sexually assault their mothers.”

The former president blasted the government for allowing “unprecedented violations of our rights to privacy through warrantless wiretapping and government mining of our electronic communications.”

Where is Code Pink?

So Carter is a racist when he made this comment years ago.

Carter criticized Bush for pretty much the same things.

Hmm, sooo... Bush and Obama are pretty much the same is what you're saying? I can agree with that.

You planning to vote for Bush... er, I mean Obama in 2012?

Carter attacks Obama.

Clinton undermines Obama.

Merkel mocks Obama.

Putin disrespects Obama.

And that's just the last two weeks.

And no one said anything bad at all about Romney?

Romney is not the President, yet. I think this thread was about Obama and Carter.

Romney did not just write a book deriding the President's policy.

Under Strict orders to Keep their Damn Mouths Shut and toe the Party line.

Politics sure does make strange bedfellows.

I bet you guys would rally behind Stalin himself, if he came back from the dead and said something mean about Obama.

Not sure I see any right wingers supporting him. Pointing out what he is saying about Obama is not supporting what he is saying.

I happen to agree with the Drone Program. Just think it's kinda Funny it's only Lonely Carter out there bitching about it and all the Masses of People and groups like Code Pink that were so Loud When Bush was President are pretty much Silent, or at least no longer getting covered by the Main Stream Media. Every time we try to Point something out like this, you guys try and Twist it and say look at these guys supporting a Lefty. Carter is a Dumb fuck, and he is wrong about this issue. However this is another glaring example of Both the Hypocrisy of the Left who are so Vocal about things when a Republican Do them, But then Toe the Party line and Keep their Mouths shut when a Democrat does the same stuff. As well as the Bias of the Media who so Gleefully Covered the Anti War Protestors Against Bush, But Don't Cover it the Same way when a Democrat is in Office.

same old thing we see over and over and over from the Left, and the Media.

If Carter were saying this About a Republican this Board will already have 2 or 3 Threads started by Democrats on it, where they are trashing the President for being a war criminal. But alas all your Liberal High ideals you preached about when Bush was President fall to the Way side in the Name of Keeping a Democrat in office no matter what he does.

Which is why I've been saying "ODS" has "BDS" beaten by a country mile.

Carter is correct, we have Bush III.

I hate to tell you this, either way you go come Jan 21 2013 we are going to have Bush 3

Bush III (Obama), or possibly Bush IV (Romney).

Obama is a war criminal and should be treated as such. With every drone strike he creates more terrorists and as a result creates more security and the expense of liberty.

Indeed. If Karl Rove released a book tomorrow, which spoke of Bush and ‘juicy details”? There would be 100 threads on such by the left. Strange that!
