Here's what Jimmy Carter actually said: "An overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he's African-American."

By "intensely demonstrated animosity," one can safely assume that Carter meant the Obama=Hitler/Stalin/Pol Pot/Devil signs, the loaded guns brought to presidential events, and the histerical lunatics screaming that he's a Muslim African who wants to kill all the grandparents in this great home of the brave. Those would all qualify as acts of "intensely demonstrated animosity."

Here's what David Gregory claimed Carter had said: "This week you had a former President, Jimmy Carter, saying most — not just a little, but most — of this Republican opposition against you is motivated by racism. Do you agree with that?"

Republican opposition—unlike the Hitler signs and loaded guns—DOES NOT qualify as "intensely demonstrated animosity!"
