President Carter gets into the act too ...

As Cheney crosses the region underscoring the Bush administration's commitment to the war in Iraq and rallying key American allies - Australia and Japan - he confronts a growing chorus of criticism at home.

Former President Jimmy Carter, in an interview to be aired Sunday morning by ABC News, sharply criticizes Cheney's record on the war.

"If you go back and see what Vice President Cheney has said for the last three or four years concerning Iraq, his batting average is abysmally low," Carter says of Cheney in an interview with George Stephanopoulos that will be shown on ABC News' This Week.

"He hasn't been right on hardly anything, in his prediction of what was going to happen . . . He's just been almost completely wrong on just about everything he's said."

Maybe a little more ridicule and lampooning since Dick Cheney is such a joke. But this ain't bad.
