In an interview with NBG, former President Jimmy Carter spoke out against the increasing vitriol being directed at Obama by the Right:
I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he’s African American. I live in the South, and I’ve seen the South come a long way, and I’ve seen the rest of the country that shared the South’s attitude toward minority groups at that time, particularly African Americans . . . and that racism inclination still exists. . . . It’s an abominable circumstance, and it grieves me and concerns me very deeply.”
If there was ever any doubt about Carter’s words, Rush Limbaugh’s recent jaw-dropper should help clear things up.
Watch Carter.
