WOW...even a blind liberal squirrel finds a nut everyone once in a while...well sort of... ---- Separating himself from many of his left-leaning compatriots, former President Jimmy Carter weighed in on the George Zimmerman verdict. During an interview with WXIA-TV’s Brenda Wood, the former commander-in-chief issued a surprising stance, noting that he believes that the jury made the correct decision in acquitting the former neighborhood watch leader. “I think the jury made the right decision based in the evidence presented because the prosecution inadvertently set the standard so high that the jury had to be convinced that it was a deliberate act by Zimmerman and that he was not defending himself and so forth,” Carter said. He went on to note that the jury was required to make its decision based on the facts and evidence that were presented during the trial. “It’s not a moral question, it’s a legal question and the American law requires that the jury listens to the evidence presented,” he added. theblaze/stories/2013/07/17/jimmy-carter-issues-surprising-stance-on-zimmerman-verdict/
