Three months ago Commentary Magazine called Jimmy Carter "our worst ex-president" (because of his position on Israel, of course). Now Carter is calling Bush "our worst president ever," and the press is attacking him for violating some unspoken ethic of the presidency (as Brian Williams and Chris Matthews said last night): Presidents shalt not criticize the president. This is ridiculous. The country is in a crisis, despised by the world, and Carter is supposed to be polite? The press should seriously consider the question Carter has posed.
