Carter 'Faces Down' Sudan Officials By Caving In
lgf ^ | Oct 3, 2007

Posted on 10/03/2007 9:47:46 AM PDT by george76

The Associated Press headline says: Jimmy Carter faces down Darfur officials.

That headline is ridiculous, of course. Because after all his blustering and threatening, Carter showed his usual strength of character by completely caving in.

" Carter later agreed to a compromise by which tribal representatives would be brought to him at another location later Wednesday. But the refugee delegates never showed up."

I’m worried about the predicaments Carter keeps putting his Secret Service detail in.

Could care less about Carter....

Carter really is clueless about the situation in Darfur. The Sudanese government had no intention of ever letting Carter see what is really going on there.

That compromise really worked out well, don’t you think? The refugee delegates never showed.

Jeezy peezy... Carter Capitulates on the Perpetrators of Genocide ???

The old coot should be in a padded room.

And exactly what gives him the right to be meddling in foreign affairs.

Same theme, different day: How can we miss Carter if he won't go away????

Liberals ALWAYS cave when they meet resistance. When will the Republican in Congress ever learn this?

You know I was about to say “Keep pounding nails Jimmy” but now I realized that he still thinks that’s what he’s doing.

Sounds like Carter brought his balls and boat oar to whack those rascally wabbits around a bit.

Sounds more like Carter bird dogged the people for the Sudanese who then proceeded to kill them.

Carter is a Chavez lover. Someone here actually thinks Carter wasn’t in on this?

Jimmy should stick to raising peanuts. He was the worst President in History, but still has visions of grandeur.He still thinks anyone gives a damn what he thinks and cannot give up the lime light. Too bad the Retired Presidents cannot stick to golf, and stay out of trying to correct they mess they created.

Carter still loves Comrade Bob Mugabe, but of course the lamestream media would never ask the self selected savior (kook) about what ol’Comrade Bob has been up to since he was placed into office by the liberal losers.
