Former President Jimmy Carter of the United States has weighed in on the controversy over Guantanamo Bay. He says the prison there us a "disgrace" and an "embarrassment" to America. He also calls the invasion of my peace loving nation, which would never have hurt a fly--well, unless it was a Shiite, Kurdish, or Kuwaiti fly--as "unnecessary and unjust."

Strong words indeed, and normally I would welcome such opinions from a former leader of the U.S.

On the other hand, we are talking about Jimmy Carter, who was and still is a wiener. I mean, the guy allowed a mob to occupy his embassy in Tehran and hold 52 of his countrymen hostage for a year and a half. Do you think Bush would have allowed that kind of nonsense? Of course not. Hell, Bush is crazy enough that he would have bombed Iran back into the stone age.

On the other hand, how would anyone have told the difference?
