Turn Up The Stupid. Cue Jimmy Carter.

Jimmy Carter, America's second-worst President and full-time anti-semite, will find a way to blame ISRAEL anything and everything, now to include the actions of the French cartoon terrorists.

Jimmy Carter Blames Recent Terror Attacks On ‘Palestinian Problem’

Is there still anyone who thinks that this bitter, hateful old man is even remotely relevant?

Jimmy Carter says...


Ah, yes. Jimmy Carter is now whining that he'd have won in 1980 if he'd been more manly.

Yeah, yeah...and John McCain would have won in 2008 if Barack Obama had been white.

And America would have won in both years if Carter and Obama hadn't been such total unmitigated losers who still fail to understand America's greatness.

Still wanna play the "if" game, Jimmy?

Mix a slacker with an X-Box and a lawyer and you get...

one of the dumbest lawsuits of all time.
HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - A Hawaii man is suing the maker of an online video game because he says the game is too addicting. Craig Smallwood says he has played Lineage II for about 20,000 hours.

The lawsuit alleges that he is so addicted, he can't do daily activities like get up, get dressed, bathe or communicate with family and friends. Smallwood says the company, NCSOFT of South Korea, did not display proper warning that the game could become addicting.

The NCSOFT website describes the game as "an immersive and dramatic fantasy world known for its unique political and economic systems."

A federal judge is allowing the lawsuit.
So to sum it up, this loser spent 20,000 hours playing a game--a game that he could have turned off and walked away from any time that he wanted. He played so much that he failed to bathe, alienated his family and friends, and presumably didn't work (so whose house was he living and playing his game in and who bought the groceries that he ate?) and that's now suddenly someone else's fault and he deserves some cash? More to the point, he couldn't clean himself or talk to people but he still managed to shop for a lawyer?
According to Smallwood, he has spent some 20,000 hours from 2004 to 2009 just playing Lineage II. Because it got him hooked so bad, he is now asking for an unspecified amount of money as damages from NCsoft.

He also alleged that NCsoft "acted negligently in failing to warn or instruct or adequately warn or instruct plaintiff and other players of Lineage II of its dangerous and defective characteristics, and of the safe and proper method of using the game." Had he known that the game would be that addicting, he said he wouldn't have touched it in the first place.

The judge handling the case, U.S. District Judge Alan Kay gave out a ruling earlier this month, making it possible for the case to proceed to trial: "In light of plaintiff's allegations, the court finds that plaintiff has stated a claim for both negligence and gross negligence."
The only thing stupider than Craig and this lawsuit is the addle-brained judge, U.S. District Court Judge Alan Kay, who decided that this case was worthy of occupying space on the court docket. This is why we need tort reform...and a means of sanctioning plaintiffs like Smallwood and any attorney sleazy enough to file a case like this.

In other news, Jimmy Carter has gone to North Korea to try to gain the release of Aijalon Gomes, an American citizen held in prison there after (rather stupidly) entering North Korea illegally from China. Might I be the first one to suggest a trade where the North Koreans get Craig Smallwood in exchange for Gomes? That sounds like a good deal, at least for us, and if it's not good enough for North Korea, I'm open to letting them keep Carter too.

Sarah Palin vs. Jennifer Granholm

OK, this is the match-up that people in the media keep talking about. Apparently the Dems are upset because Alaska's Governor Palin is considered hot and more than a little sexy by much of America. So they're now trying to market Canadian-born Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm as an alternative.
Playboy even has a poll on it (Granholm's getting stomped) and many talking heads and snarky leftist columnists are comparing the two. Most of them, predictably, are trying to make the claim that Granholm is allegedly smarter than Governor Palin because she went to Berkeley and because Obama's considering her for a US Supreme Court slot. Of course they overlook the fact that her meteoric rise to the governorship of Michigan came about through political patronage and little else, unlike Sarah Palin's. Yes, Jenny Granholm started out as Corporation Counsel for corruption-plagued Wayne County, Michigan (think "Detroit", folks), where she was basically a lackey for Ed McNamara, the man who also made Kwame Kilpatrick Detroit's mayor before he went to jail.
Jenny rode McNamara's coattails and used his influence to become Michigan's first female Attorney general, a position in which she basically did nothing other than pose for photos and hold press conferences while dramatically shrinking that office's staff of criminal prosecutors. Using that publicity and running against a former governor that no one wanted to see back in office (Jim Blanchard, folks...Michigan's version of Jimmy Carter), She replaced outgoing conservative Governor John Engler, inheriting from him a robust state economy and bulging state coffers. (Engler had saved Michigan from Blanchard's ruinous policies just as President Reagan had saved America from Carter's. Conservatism works wherever it's allowed to be implemented, folks.)

Jenny managed to narrowly win the governorship, a feat credited in large part to Kwame Kilpatrick turning out the Detroit voters--almost all of whom vote Democrat--in record numbers. It was just enough to push her over the top even though most of the state's rural population voted against her, proving once again that "Machine" politics is effective, and usually to the detriment of everyone but the machine.

But here's the part that most people who like to compare Granholm to Governor Palin overlook:

Under Governor Palin's leadership, Alaska's economy soared, and the people in that state enjoy somme of the lowest taxes and least amount of government regulation in the country. Through Palin's negotiations with the oil companies, the average Alaskan gets over a thousand dollars a year in Permanent Fund (royalty) payments in lieu of paying a state income tax. People in Alaska are keeping their money and actually getting paid directly as the rightful beneficiaries of favorable contracts negotiated on their behalf by their governor (Palin) and other elected officials. Alaska's unemployment rate is below the national average (9.4%) at 8.0%. Michigan's--one of the lowest in the country when Governor Engler was running things just a few years ago--is now one of America's highest at 14.1%. Good job, Jenny! Just keep taxing those businesses like you've done since taking office. The revenues are just flowing in from that scheme, aren't they?

So to those who want to compare the two woman governors, it's time to put the snark aside and focus on actual records. While it may by fun and serve a political agenda to mock Governor Palin and pretend that she's some sort of hick or buffoon, all while holding Governor Granholm out as the next star child, honesty requires an evaluation of their respective accomplishments, and that evaluation is more devastating to Granholm's image than anything that Tina Fey or David Letterman could ever say. You see, the facts paint a different picture. They show us two governors, one of whom--Jenny Granholm--was handed the throne in a state that was looked upon as a model for the nation, only to tank it in her first term, all while the other governor--Sarah Palin--clawed her way to the top on her own merits by promising the voters a government based in conservative principles. Governor Palin kept those promises and her state is one of the healthiest today, in stark contrast to the formerly healthy one that Granholm rode into the ground. And it begs the question: all other things being equal, where would you rather live and who would you rather have in charge if you had a choice? People are moving to Alaska today to take advantage of the jobs and the opportunities there. I haven't heard of anyone deliberately moving to Michigan--or even staying if they could get out--for a long time.

Take a bow, Governors Palin and Granholm. Your accomplishments and your legacies speak much louder than the political hacks and the late-night talk-show fools. And when you compare those accomplishments and legacies, suddenly Governor Palin doesn't look all that dumb, nor does Governor Granholm look all that bright.

He's at it again

Well it appears that Jimmy Carter, America's first anti-semetic ex-president, is up to his old stunts again, doing what he does best: undermining America and insulting our Israeli allies. In this instance, he's over in Israel stroking Hamas and slandering the great people of Israel and our own nation's foreign policy.

Despite 50 current congressmen from both parties sending Carter a letter urging him to refrain from meeting with Hamas representatives, Carter let his ego and his disdain for our Jewish allies guide his decision-making and he blew us all off and gave the terrorist organization a badly-needed credibility boost.

The letter, sponsored by Reps. Mark Kirk, R-Ill., and Shelley Berkeley, D-Nev., and signed by congressional leaders including House Minority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, and veteran representative Barney Frank, D-Mass., lists the 26 Americans who have been killed in terrorist attacks launched by Hamas.

"President Carter, do not meet with the man who ordered their deaths," wrote the congressmen.

Carter reportedly hugged — and kissed — a Hamas leader Tuesday in the West Bank town of Ramallah on a Mideast visit that is to culminate in a meeting Friday with the group's exiled leader in Damascus, Syria.

Carter's embrace of Nasser Shaer, a senior Hamas politician, at a closed-door reception organized by Carter's office was reported by several news outlets Tuesday. Carter has been widely criticized over the trip by both U.S. and Israeli officials, who have listed Hamas as a terror organization.

Carter also laid a wreath at the grave of Yasser Arafat, whom he praised as a man who fought for "just causes" in the world.

Of course the rest of us call a spade a spade. Arafat was a purveyor of death and a murderer of women and children. His death of AIDS made the world a safer place but it can never undo the damage that his evil presence wrought.

On the patriotic side though, it's nice to see at least one American with backbone taking a real stand against Carter's support for terrorists. Rep. Joe Knollenberg, (R)--Michigan, has introduced legislation intended to strip the Carter Center, Jimmy Carter's Georgia-based scholarly institution of taxpayer support because of Carter's plans to meet with Hamas.

"America must speak with one voice against our terrorist enemies," Rep. Joe Knollenberg, R-Mich., said in a statement from his office. "It sends a fundamentally troubling message when an American dignitary is engaged in dialogue with terrorists. My legislation will make sure that taxpayer dollars are not being used to support discussions or negotiations with terrorist groups."

Knollenberg said the Carter Center has received about $19 million in taxpayer funds since 2001. He named his bill the Coordinated American Response to Extreme Radicals Act — or CARTER Act, for short. The Carter Center is housed at Emory University in Atlanta.

And of course Obama, fearful of losing a potential endorsement that Carter is shrewdly withholding from either him or Hillary, refuses to condemn him for meeting with Hamas.

So put Obama in the "No moral principles" category. If a mere endorsement from a washed-up America-hating has-been is enough to keep him from standing the enemies of freedom and democracy, how can we ever expect him to stand tall when there are some real chips on the table?

But back to Carter. Today he complained that he was denied entry into Gaza by the Israelis. I think Israel should let Carter go into Gaza. And then they should refuse to let him cross back into Israel again. And our own State Department should nullify his passport and put him on the "no fly" and "no US entry" lists due to his support of terrorism and terrorists. Hell, let's just strip him of his citizenship in the name of justice and world peace. He can stay with his terrorist buddies and perhaps we can swap him for some Palestinian refugee who actually dreams of freedom and would appreciate living in a great country like America.

Carter says what?

Mind you, I'm definitely not a Bush fan in any way right now, but I can't believe that former President Jimmy Carter publicly proclaims George Bush to be the worst President ever.

I'm not going to defend President Bush one bit, but Jimmy Carter calling someone a bad President is kind of like Michael Jackson calling someone a freak. It's like Paris Hilton calling someone spoiled, or Richard Simmons calling someone gay. Carter couldn't even manage a second term after he botched his first one so badly, and I'm at a loss to recall a single thing that he did that he deserves credit for. It certainly wasn't his economic agenda or his foreign policy acumen. And his continued breaches of protocol whereby he publicly bad-mouths his successors are unacceptable. His only excuse has to be the onset of senility, and he's lucky that other office-holders have kindly refrained from commenting on HIS pathetic four years in office even as he refuses to show that same respect to others.

Holocaust researcher attacked by stalker in hotel

It never ends for these sufferers, does it? According to this report, Well-known author and Holocaust scholar Elie Wiesel was dragged out of a San Francisco hotel elevator by an apparent Holocaust denier who reportedly had been trailing him for weeks.

Wiesel was fortunately not harmed and police escorted him to the airport after he was able to break away from his attacker, who reportedly wanted to force Wiesel to deny that the Holocaust ever happened.

Wiesel, a Holocaust survivor and author of more than 40 books, including the memoir “Night,” about his experiences at Auschwitz, won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1986.






Well they don't have a suspect in custody yet, but one comes quickly to my mind-->

Jimmy Carter's anti-semitism comes out again

According to thi article from WorldNet Daily News, Former President Jimmy Carter once complained there were "too many Jews" on the government's Holocaust Memorial Council.

Also in 1987, Carter reportedly lobbied Neal Sher, who served in the Justice Department's Office of Special Investigation, and tried to get re-entry approval into the US for former Nazi Martin Bartesch, who had been deported by Sher's office to Austria after it was established he served as an SS officer.

Both of these revelations come weeks after the release of Carter's latest book, Palestine: Peace not Apartheid, in which he blamed Israel for most of the problems in the mid-east. Carter has also been an unapologetic supporter of Hamas, the Palestinian terrorist organization that supports suicide bombers that attack Jewish civilians in daycare centers, hospitals, wedding parties, senior centers, and on school buses, among other locations.

I don't know if it's senility coming on or if he's finally showing his true colors, but I have to think that he should just worry about knocking together more of those habitrail houses for welfare recipients and leave the politics to people who have a better record on the issue than he had when he was President.

(Note: That would include pretty much everyone who hasn't caused the fall of a pro-US government in the mid-east--Iran under the Shah--and the subsequent rise of a radical anti-western Muslim fundamentalist regime that has been a prime sponsor of terrorism and which now seeks nuclear weapons. In short, even Lagniappe has a better record than James Carter.)

Illegals are at it again




Now the illegals are tangling with Sheriff Joe Arpaio, the man who keeps order in Maricopa County, AZ by putting prisoners in tents in the desert, making them wear pink underwear, and bringing back chain gangs for women. Arpaio has also been arresting illegal aliens and cherging them with conspiracy for smuggling themselves into our country. And in reasponse, illegals marched in front of his office and warned him that unless he respected the hispanic community, they would oust him at the polls.

Full story here.

Amazing. People who aren't evewn supposed to be in our country threaten our elected officials and insist that they--the illegals--will vote our public servants out of office unless we give them their way.

This kind of puts Georgia's flap about voter ID's in perspective, doesn't it?

Story here.

Georgia's legislature continues to pass legislation requiring that anyone who shows up to cast a vote and have a say in our governing ourselves must show identification to prove that he or she is in the country legally and actually entitled to vote. But it's been thwarted by a leftist judge and critics who make the phony argument that there are people out there who want to vote but cannot afford to get an ID card or make a trip to a government office to get one.

Let's be real. The only people in Georgia or anywhere else in this country who cannot produce photo identification of some sort are illegals and those people who only exist on election day to cast ballots in the names of people long dead or moved away.

Not suprisingly, all of the challenges against the Voter ID law are Democrat or groups that support the Democrats entirely. Jimmy Carter is right in there condemning this law as "racist" but then he thinks that Hugo Chavez, Venezuelan dictator, is a nice guy. It's sad to see our former President losing his mind to senility but even sadder to see his handlers use him as a prop on issues like this.
