Jimmy Carter, probably the most ineffective President we ever had, uses the funeral to spew his resentment toward Pres Bush.

What is common to these attacks is the failure to address the points Carter and Clinton made and a profound lack of historical knowledge. For example, one commenter claimed that George McGovern made the statement "segregation today . . . segregation tomorrow . . . segregation forever." but that was George Wallace.
