Evidently Carter thought the wiretapping of terrorists to prevent terrorist acts is similar to the unjustified racist wiretapping of Dr. King. He probably didn't think that but he used his time to take a political shot on something irrelevant to the events of that day. Carter is fine with cheapening that experience I suppose.
