In the category of even a broken clock is right twice a day, ex-prez and demo luminary Jimmy the Peanut Carter has come out squarely against abortion, for the babyjesus and against Clinton.
Amen.
Former President Jimmy Carter yesterday condemned all abortions and chastised his party for its intolerance of candidates and nominees who oppose abortion.
"I never have felt that any abortion should be committed -- I think each abortion is the result of a series of errors," he told reporters over breakfast at the Ritz-CarltonHotel, while across town Senate Democrats deliberated whether to filibuster the nomination of Judge Samuel A. Alito Jr. because he may share President Bush and Mr. Carter's abhorrence of abortion.
"These things impact other issues on which [Mr. Bush] and I basically agree," the Georgia Democrat said.
"I've never been convinced, if you let me inject my Christianity into it, that Jesus Christ would approve abortion."
"I have always thought it was not in the mainstream of the American public to be extremely liberal on many issues," Mr. Carter said.
The worst treatment he's received, the former president said, was from President Clinton.
eta: i hope that if the Ritz-C gave him a room that the the toilet was cleared before he checked in.
