From Townhall.com - There used to be a code among former presidents that you did not speak ill of other occupants of the White House. In the summer of 1998, President Gerald Ford told me that he would not comment on President Bill Clinton's personal problems, saying only that he hoped "respect for the presidency would be restored soon." A couple of weeks ago, George W. Bush also declined to speak about President Barack Obama, except to say that raising taxes on anyone right now would not be a good idea. But former President Jimmy Carter is apparently not a code keeper. On his recent book tour, Carter has taken to blasting the Republican Party and Bush-the-Younger. Carter is also very, very disenchanted with Fox News. Read full column here:

Because many historians often site the Carter presidency as one of the most miserable failures in our history, Carter is desperate to make some contribution that would temper his failures as an American political figure. Obama's failed economic policies may not erase the historic nature of Carter's failures, however, in terms of focusing on the NOW, Obama's one term presidency and failed economic policies will certainly bear enough ridicule to overshadow Carter's buffoonery for quite sometime. The only thing Carter can do to minimize the focus on his presidency would be to fade away and avoid the political spotlight. Fat chance of that happening.
