Uh, I did. And you actually quoted me doing so. Was I not clear enough for you when I said that he can be an idiot and says stupid things?

No. I never said that he can't have a Jewish problem because Nixon had a Jewish problem. My point was that Nixon was not only arguably unfriendly to Israel, he was anti-Semitic -- as revealed in the tape recordings that still continue to dribble out of the archives.
I think that you and slave are trying to score partisan points by posting Carter's idiotic (there again -- happy?) comments, and so I think that pointing out the comments that recent Republican presidents have made about dictators, thugs, and despots is appropriate.
