Jimmy continues to embarass himself with his Nazi outbursts
(he could have just quietly retired and perhaps history might have dealt with him graciously — but no, for the sake of a few million dollars of IslamoNazi “contributions” — he sells out everything moral and true — promoting the anti-America, anti-Jooo agenda) What a miserable, pathetic old POS.

Sentient people will recognize that Hamas (a terrorist
network that had already crucified Egyptians), Carter,
the UN, Obama and the US State Dept broke the Agreement
to make Gaza demilitarized.

Instead, .....:

Jimminey Cricket Carter has truly gone ‘round the bend. Maybe he inhaled too much asbestos on his building projects. What a pluperfect doofus he has made of himself. Almost as bad was Beckel trying to smooth it over on The Five this afternoon.

And to think Carter probably won his one term because people believed him to be a born-again Christian.
