I think calling Dick Cheney a "militant" is carrying things a little too far there, Jimmy.

I think Jimmy Carter calling anyone else a disaster is about as cheeky as it comes. Hey Jimmy, remember that pot and kettle thing?

Jimmy Carter is an embarrassment.. As Zell Miller once said a few years ago, "Jimmy Carter still believes he's president."
