“[W]e waited too long. We let the Islamic State build up its money, capability and strength and weapons while it was still in Syria,” he said, using an alternate name for the terrorist group. “Then when [ISIL] moved into Iraq, the Sunni Muslims didn’t object to their being there and about a third of the territory in Iraq was abandoned.”

Jimmy, just be content that you’re not the worst president of my lifetime anymore.

When the worst president in US history calls you a flop, when he’s from your own party and it’s right before mid-term elections, you know you’re done.

Carter is America’s resident expert on how to keep the muslims in line.

He has vast experience with all the tricks that don’t work.

Obama is losing critical political support. Very important to consider in the context of the nuclear “talks” with Iran. He no longer has the clout to force key Democratic senators to support or not criticize a fig leaf agreement that leaves Iran’s nuclear infrastructure intact and functional. Obama has absolutely no intention of taking military action against Iran. Hence war is much more likely.

Considering how Carter screwed up things in the ME when he was president, this is ‘series’ ... and ‘hugh’.

Carter knows he doesn’t have much of a positive legacy. At most, he might be able to help elevate Obama to being the worst president.

But Obama’s not done yet. He has two more years to totally destroy the Democrat Party. I think that’s what Penetta, Carter and other “prominent” Dems are worrying about.

Obama is Carter on steroids, and recall that the Dems had a heck of a time recovering from the former’s disastrous blunders and his failure of leadership. With the destructive path that the country is on now, the Democrat Party could be facing incalculable damage. :)

I think Carter has solidified his position as the runner-up to Obama. ;)

When Jimmy Carter says a Democrat president is a screw up who is too passive in dealing with foreign threats, you know its got to be bad.

You must surely mean that he's Carter on estrogen.

So Jimmy Carter can see the folly of the Obama administration and is essentially saying to Obama “you blew it buddy boy.”

The same Jimmy Carter of the Iranian hostage fame...The “worst President ever” is now saying that Obama is the worst president ever.

Carter doesn’t have to worry, Obama is no doubt the worst President in the modern ara.

When Carter can criticize your foreign policy, you have hit bottom and splattered on the rocks below.

Is it just me or has Carter been making more noise in the last couple years or what?

That would, for the most part, be a good thing. More likely he will continue to sow the seeds for the destruction of the United States.
