Former President Carter is so predictable

We read today this from the Associated Press:

Ex-President Carter: Eavesdropping Illegal

Former President Jimmy Carter criticized the Bush administration's domestic eavesdropping program Monday and said he believes the president has broken the law.

"Under the Bush administration, there's been a disgraceful and illegal decision _ we're not going to the let the judges or the Congress or anyone else know that we're spying on the American people," Carter told reporters. "And no one knows how many innocent Americans have had their privacy violated under this secret act."

And so on here.

Anyone surprised?

No, and you won't be surprised in a few days or weeks when the former President makes a statement that begins: "Of course I deplore violence but...", and then goes on to criticize the cartoonists and those who are standing with them.

Let's watch for Carter's sure to come statement.

Please let me know if you see it first.
