As regular readers of this blog know, I keep a list of idiots and creeps who stand out as particularly perfect examples as such. I mentioned in a previous post that I try to keep it from being populated by politicians since it would be easy to crowd out such deserving listees as Mike Tyson, Barbra Streisand and others. But Jimmy Carter's tirade at the funeral of poor Mrs. King the other day earns him a place.
Carter tried to zing Bush for his terrorist surveillance program - by referencing the wiretapping of Martin Luther King that had been ordered by the Kennedy administration. Of course, the bitter-sounding Georgian never acknowledged that it was Democrats who had violated the King family's constitutional rights. A jerk like this must be on the list.
