Amongst other items, Obama ran promising that the bottom 95% of income earners would not see $.01 of tax increases. He also claimed that other countries would once again listen to and respect us. Funny none of that seems to be happening. Finally, Obama claimed that he would heal the country’s “racial divide” and be the first “post racial” president. Jimmy Carter doesn’t think so (video at the link)

I live in the south

Is Carter’s statement of credibility for being able to discern when people are opposed to someone’s race as opposed to someone’s destructive national policies.

According to Rasmussen, President Obama was elected gaining nearly 53% of the popular vote.  On the day he was inaugurated, President Obama enjoyed a favorability rating of 65% and a net positive rating of 28%.  This morning, President Obama’s favorabilty rating is just 49% and he has a net unfavorable rating of 6%.  Obviously a change of this magnitude begs the question:  What has changed?  Does Jimmy Carter and the other Democrats who echo the “racism” charge believe that nobody noticed the color of President Obama’s skin on January 21st?  Does Carter and others, believe that Obama’s skin color has changed in the past eight months?

In this case, resorting to a charge of “racism” shows that the Democrats are short on ammo.  They are firing their final, desperate rounds in an attempt to prevent or forestall an over run of their positions by a populace backlash.

In the specific case of Jimmy Carter, it’s interesting that he relies on his southern heritage for his credentials.  It seems to me that rather than his heritage, Carter need no more reason than “it takes one to know one” for his charge of racism.

I think the words of the famous philosopher Mr. T sums up Carter’s take perfectly,

I pity the fool!
