It's about having the moral courage to speak out against injustice. It's character, an attribute completely lacking in today's political establishment. Carter is slammed for his handling of the Iranian hostage crisis. That was a horrendous situation that Carter inherited after decades of US policy in Iran. Iran is a blight on his presidency, but Carter is an inspiring man of intense moral clarity. He is not one to compromise his values or theology for political convenience. He is no hypocrite. He didn't wear his faith on his shirt sleeve, and he respected the lives of all people. If anything, history will probably remember Carter as one of the most moral and religious presidents. Far better than history will remember Bush.
Tonight, Fox aired an incredible propaganda piece on Irag, for free. I'm sure the administration paid nothing for that fluff piece.
