Carter made, what i believe to be, very homophobic comments at Emory Univ. this week. I have been scouring the web for video or transcript of his comments, but can’t find them.
A woman asked him about the photo of him in the White House with Bush, Obama, Clinton and Bush Sr. She said she noticed how far away he was from the others, and if he ever stopped feeling like a Washington outsider.
Carter responded, revealing his homophobia. Carter said where he is from men don’t stand next to each other, touching each other. He was the only one acting as men should, normal. If you look out on (Emory University) campus, you won’t see, you will see very few men standing so close they are touching each other.
The laughter, and his delivery revealed an homophobia. He said the majority of dissent against Obama was racist, offering no evidence (and when he tried, he was wrong – he misstated the Bury Obamacare with Kennedy signs as Bury Obama with Kennedy) but yet he believes it is not natural for men to stand near each other?
I am surprised I haven’t heard anything about this anywhere. I think this is the perfect opportunity to show him how giving people the benefit of the doubt is the right thing to do. He painted a massive amount of people as racist. Well, I am calling him a bigot!
(If anyone can find the video, please let me know!) Thanks!
Carter is doing nothing but further damaging the potential for debate.
