Why don't you call him a traitor and unpatriotic?

Just because he did things that were foolish and counterproductive doesn't make him a traitor or mean that he doesn't love his country. I don't want him accused of being a traitor I just am glad that he is not president now.


In a free society, what he said should not be viewed as foolish but rather, as an exercise of his right to free speech. In the very recent past, anyone who voiced opposition to Mr. Bush's policies immediately was branded unpatriotic and unAmerican by the right.

And there are many in this country who do not believe Carter's speech was counterproductive. In the latest WSJ poll, 55% of the American people insist Bush continue to work through the auspices of the UN. Hardly counterproductive but rather a revalidation of what the people in this country want.
