Jimmy Carter: An Act of Contrition...Pennance? - mapoui - 06-28-2012 http://www.counterpunch.org/2012/06/27/jimmy-carters-penance/ I read these words and focus on the present tense of “is”.  And I think:  When was this country ever anything but an imperialist nation?  When was the US anything but an enemy of human rights?  And I think about the blood on the hands of Jimmy Carter whose presidency was a devastating illustration of inhumanity.
