Jimmy Carter has done more unselfish acts of kindness to improve the world than any 10 Republicans you can name combined.



Al Gore won the election for the presidency. He exposed the irrefutable, indisputable, scientific fact that man-made global warming is real in an accurate, truthful, honest, and scientifically sound movie that won an Acadamy Award, and he deservedly won the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in bringing about international cooperation in dealing with something that is very likely to end all life on earth if nothing is done.



President Obama's efforts to close Gitmo, and reverse the horrible foreign policy of his treasonous predecessor while reaching out to other nations in an effort to repair our damaged reputation and moral standing in the world greatly increase peace in the world.


Yassir Arafat was the leader of a terrorist organization, but he's come the closest of any Palestinian leader to bringing lasting peace to that part of the world when he publicly stated that Israel had a right to exist in peace and security and he very nearly got Israel to agree to return to the 1949 armistice lines while recognizing a state of Palestine. This is the closest to true peace those people have ever been.


And you? You're just a loudmouthed douchebag with a chip on your shoulder and nothing to back it up.
