Appearing on the radio talk show of conservative radio host Laura Ingraham today, former President Jimmy Carter said he believes the Democratic Party should moderate its position on abortion, which it currently supports without limits and funded at taxpayer expense.Carter said toning down the stridently pro-abortion position would help win back Republicans who abandoned the Democrats because of abortion and other liberal social issue positions.Carter said:“I never have believed that Jesus Christ would approve of abortions and that was one of the problems I had when I was president having to uphold Roe v. Wade

Wow, someone’s approaching the end and getting a little worried. Good luck, Jimmah.

Well that's news to me! I didn't know Carter was against abortion on demand. I have a hard time believing him. Where was he all this time? I was a child when he became president.
When I understood what abortion is (I was in 3rd Grade), I was absolutely appalled. And that's when I said no to Democrats and to Jimmy Carter.
Within a few years, Ronald Reagan ran for president. I have been solidly Republican -- more Republican than most Republican members of government! -- ever since. Actually, to be accurate, I have been a conservative ever since.

I voted for him back in the day. After his single term in office, I never voted for another Dem.

I guess they will have to abandon their stance on taking God out of society as well. When you truly believe that babies are blessings from God, then you will understand. Just like how do you know what love is if you don't know God?

Excuse me, the democrat party should "moderate its position" and now engage in "toning down" the murder rhetoric, that is what he now counsels? The end of the line and he's suddenly calling for lying about the democrat stance on abortion? Bah. When it suited him, he went along to get along, but now calls for icing the cake of abortion, just to make it sweeter/palatable for the masses and the perverted democrat party? How despicable, how soy, how cowardly.
If he truly repented of his silent approval of the democrat positions, he would plainly say so, instead of choosing the wimpy way out of agreeing to be agreeable.

Carter, now the third-worst President, is seeing the fire at the end of the tunnel and is giving up the religious hypocrisy of his lifetime. TOO late now!

I'm against abortion but that said, they're here. So, after two abortions, the woman should automatically have her tubes tied if going for a third. And no taxpayer support.

This man is personally responsible for the dem party embracing abortion on demand as its main plank and the consequences ever since. 1976 was the first election after Watergate as well as after RvW. Anyone who ran as a dem was going to win that election and define the issue going forward. "Personally opposed" but couldn't care less. That's what he said.
After that, every single candidate who wished to run for president in that party had to adopt that position. Both Ted Kennedy and Jesse Jackson renounced their strong prolife views to endorse "choice(!)". We have been fighting that murderous sophistry ever since.
Congratulations carter. You own that. The bloodthirsty business it ushered in. The coarsening of hearts and the dulling of minds to blatant sophistry. You own that carter.

Sorry Jimmy, your weak non-apology on abortion while still supporting DemonRats won't get you into heaven. You've spent your whole life supporting a twisted, evil, communist version of Christianity, and you haven't really changed. Satan got what he wanted out of you. You got paid your 30 pieces of silver. Time for you to get the rest of your wages of sin old man.

This isn't about Jimmah at all, and don't think Jimmah isn't in on the next evil. Ever heard of human trafficking? Thought so. Do you know the cartels are letting small time operators in on the drug systems while the cartels make billions more kidnapping and selling children as sex slaves? Research what the US Marshal's spend most of their time doing now. Freeing abducted children from sex slavery and doing pretty much nothing to the organizations involved in that sex slave trade. Carter's merely paving the way for the sex slave industry and hoping YOU fall for his anti-abortion sleight of hand. Fewer abortions, adopting children for sex trafficking will be huge money and guess what the Marxists like? (Rio Lindans, they like money). Stealing elections? Pshaw. Pumping out innocent kids instead of aborting all of them; adopting them into the"legal" system; then selling them into slavery; and focusing on blaming whiteness for slavery as their misdirection is what they're doing. Carter couldn't give two hoots about murdering kids and is just part of the next outrage; more "product" for the sick "consumers." And I couldn't care less if you accuse me of wearing a tin foil hat or seeing black helicopters. These people are evil, and evil is merely using a sweet old man to delude you.

If Carter believes this, and I am sure he does, he should have left the party. Too little too late although any voice is appreciated.

People forget that in 1976 the Republican Party of Rockefeller Bush Ford Romney was very proabortion. Bushes held hands and skipped through the field of Eugenics with Nazis and Margaret Sanger. Romney’s mom ran for US Senate as a Pre Roe legalized abortion candidate.
Carter ran as a prolife Democrat and got a big piece of the Catholic vote.

I always felt that Carter was a good man in an office that overwhelmed him. He was poorly suited for the presidency and the viciousness that inherently comes with living in the swamp. He upheld the law as written at the time instead of recognizing it for what it was: genocide. He was controlled by his party. Contrasted with Trump, there is no contest. He's like all of us--a mixture of good and bad choices; but he should not have been a president.

Why have we had to protect Jimmy Carter for over 40 years, when we would be so much better off, if we could find someone who would have him.

At Jimmy Carter's first election he was indeed the pro-life candidate. Ford was the candidate of the Rockefeller Republicans, funders and supporters of Planned Parenthood. It had bee that way for decades: the Democrats were the pro-lifers and the Republicans were all for population control abroad as a national security doctrine. Carter was the pivot - before his second election he Grew in Office, and by Carter-Reagan, Carter was the pro-abortion candidate and Reagan the pro-life one. Since then the parties have been as they are now. All the pro-life Democrats changed sides. Time was, Clinton was pro-life, Durbin was pro-life, Kucinich was pro-life, Jesse Jackson was pro-life. And all the others too. Since 1980 one after the other they have changed sides. Bart Stupak did not change sides, to give him credit. Since 1980, it has been the GOP which is pro-life and increasingly working-class and diverse, while the Democrats have become anti-life, the party of the rich, the party of the owners, and religiously bigoted. If you want to know what old-time anti-Catholicism sounded like ... OK skip that thought....

Too little, too late, but a rather courageous statement nonetheless. Nancy and the squad will be seething at this development. The MSM will do its best to ignore it and hide it from the masses. Sometimes, as old age creeps up on us, clarity does too. Even for a few dems.

#22 you are correct. Many repubs advocated for abortion. Some like Nixon mildly disdained it. The difference is, they were all losers. Every single one. Their positions meant nothing going forward, to the party or to the culture war, as they lost and carried no influence in the party.
Carter, however, won, and his position became entrenched. Tolerance for child murder on demand, that was his positon. That is what we have today. And yes, his phony faith allowed Catholics to be "personally opposed" (but don't really care), paving the way for the insane dichotomy we have today, where a building full of dems applaud at the signing of a bill enshrining "choice!" for 4th trimester abortion.
It was Ronald Reagan, an honest intellectual and a convert to prolife after speaking with Dr. Mildred Jefferson, who saved the party from sophistry I mean "choice!". He ushered in a sane alternative of plain spoken truth and gave us enduring leadership.
Thank Almighty God in Heaven for Ronald Reagan and Dr. J. They gave us a sliver of daylight in dark days.

The moderate democrats have no champions... the house and senate are filled to overflowing with socialists who believe America is a bad country... nothing jimmy carter can say now... will change their course of action... I wonder how he will negotiate abortion with God....would be interesting to watch...Thou shalt not kill... is not negotiable... I remember a dear friend saying..."God never sends a baby... He doesn't send a loaf of bread"... something to remember....

This article is almost 10 yrs old. Laura Ingraham hasn't had a radio show for yrs. Having said that if Jimmy Carter felt strongly, that abortion should be outlawed, he should have spoken up more often. He probably should have left the Democrat party

Another victim of dementia, but this time a former president. Pro abortion zealots will literally go to hell rather than change their position one iota, I fear. Pray for their repentance, because this is a heinous crime.

My first reaction was the same as #1 - old man trying to insure he gets into heaven. I remember well when drunken rapist murderer adulterous pervert Splash Kennedy tried the same thing on learning that he had terminal brain cancer. He tried to buy himself a special dispensation and Pope JPII essentially told him where to stick his offer.

Forgot to add, Carter is uniquely responsible for loosing radical Islam on the world and all of it’s tens of thousands of acts of terrorism and murder. Muslims were pretty benign until Carter dumped the Shah and brought back the ayatollahs. He has that hanging over his head too and I would bet that God is not pleased.

What is a moderate position on abortion? You only vacuum out half the brain? You have to sell the body parts at a discount?
