3. No. It's a 3 hour program |

Edited on Sun Dec-03-06 11:36 AM by Viva_La_Revolution
He'll only be talking about his new book for a few minutes.
Former President Jimmy Carter is the guest on Book TV's December In Depth. Mr. Carter is the author of a new book, "Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid," and more than twenty others, including "Our Endangered Values: America's Moral Crisis," "Keeping Faith: Memories of a President," "The Virtues of Aging," "An Hour Before Daylight: Memories of a Rural Boyhood," and "The Blood of Abraham: Insights into the Middle East." He co-authored "Everything to Gain: Making the Most of the Rest of Your Life" with his wife, Rosalynn Carter. In Depth will air live from President Carter's home in Plains, Georgia.
Call in during the show to ask questions of President Carter or e-mail your questions to booktv@c-span.org .

5. THE TITLE OF THIS THREAD IS ABOUT HIS NEW BOOK, NOT THE OTHERS |
|
Edited on Sun Dec-03-06 11:47 AM by still_one
If the thread was meant to be about a GENERAL DISCUSSION of Carter's books it WOULD HAVE HAD A MORE GENERAL TITLE

No need to yell.

but got: You can't edit this message because the editing period has expired.
Why are you so terrified of gentle Mr Carter's new book?

14. I am not "terrified" by his new book |
|
Though there are plenty of distortions within his book falsifying history, a discussion of THAT specific book should be designated to the I/P forum
I appreciate the fact that you did try to edit the title so it was more generic

16. oh, just a thread protocol purist |
|
who coincidentally thinks Jimmy Carter would distort and falsify history. Thx for confirming my suspicion that moving threads to the I/P forum is a way to bury them.
Moderators: this thread is about Jimmy Carter's 3 hours on BookTV and not only his new book.

Edited on Sun Dec-03-06 01:48 PM by still_one
that is where it is suppossed to be, you don't like tough
Notice the other threads concerning the Jimmy Carter's books were generic, not specific as yours was

25. they get moved to I/P, then once there, they all of a sudden |
|
don't meet the stringent criteria for I/P threads and they get locked.

15. I'm still fascinated by Jimmy Carter |
|
If he were younger, he would be the perfect candidate to try and resolve the Iraq War and the problems in the Middle East.

19. He is an amazing human being |
|
full of compassion and humanity. As I'm watching him I can't help but come to terms with the reality that CSpan won't be able to interview Bush for one hour let alone three hours. This is so refreshing. He is so informed on so many subjects and issues.
What's even nicer is that since that one offensive call, only sensible people are calling.

I have been very impressed by the respect the callers have for him. It's nice to know so many others hold the same esteem for him that I do. :)

Imagine Bush engaging on so many subjects for three hours. I love Carter. Sure I don't agree with everything he has said or sone but he's a decent human being.

32. Unbelievable. Jimmy Carter writes a book and talks about it on C-Span |
|
and it's moved to the "I/P Forum." I guess Carter is on the "non approved list" now. Sheesh.

35. This shouldn't have been moved in my opinion. |

That said, if the OP had been smart, he/she would simply have titled the thread: Jimmy Carter on C-Span, 12-3

Edited on Sun Dec-03-06 04:53 PM by Behind the Aegis
I have only seen a couple of comments on something other than the "book." The rest are comments bitching about it being sent to the "dungeon," as if only 'special people' can post here. Besides, it is not about the title of the OP, I think it was moved because of the four links added, all of which only deal with I/P in some form or fashion.

39. Then why did the OP who started the thread add the following links |
|
http://www.endtheoccupation.org / http://jewishvoiceforpeace.org / http://www.palsolidarity.org/main / http://www.stopaipac.org (thanks to Tom Joad) This was more than JUST to discuss Carter's books and the op knows it, otherwise he would NOT have added those other links

41. thanks for reposting the links |

It's important that they are circulated. Hundreds of frightened kids are locked up in Israeli prisons as Carter pointed out while we argue about thread placement. Thousands more are starving or being shot. http://www.endtheoccupation.org / http://jewishvoiceforpeace.org / http://www.palsolidarity.org/main / http://www.stopaipac.org

43. A Shame that we do not see this in GD Every day. |
|
What pains me is seeing this thread marginalized. The title alone of President Carter's book speaks precisely and truly to the present situation in small ways and large.
