[See NewsBusters for more.] Former Democratic operative turned journalist George Stephanopoulos on Friday fawned over Jimmy Carter. Though much of the interview with the "heroic" ex-president focused on his humanitarian work, Stephanopoulos also prompted Carter to push his liberal agenda. The politician went on a rant against the Supreme Court's 2010 Citizens United campaign finance ruling, calling it "the stupidest ruling and the most damaging ruling that the Supreme Court has ever issued." Ever? Worse than the 1857 Dred Scott case that ruled African Americans to not be citizens? Worse than Pessy vs. Ferguson, the case that legalized racial segregation?
