Poor Carter, there aren't enough Castros around to provide "human rights" to his liking...

It's hard to stay at the top. With all the competition, it gets harder for jimmah to keep his spot as the biggest scumbag on the national stage. Things like this serve as "Hey remember me. I hate America as much as the next guy!", reminders.

Liberals: the first to scream about danger when they are safe, and the first to shut up when they are in real danger.

Exactly. We all know jimmah never met a dictator he didn't like so I'm sure he sees dictatorships as really "delivering" on human rights.
And that would be correct ... the rights of the dictator!

They do a lot better at it than tyrannies, though.

The worst President of all time - not only because of his actions during his presidency, but afterwords too.

I think Carter was (and still is) a double agent for the Soviets...

Democarcies suck at protecting human rights. 2 wolves and a sheep deciding lunch options.
That is why we were set up as a Constitutional Republic. The Bill of Rights and the layers of protections were supposed to ensure our Rights remained inviolate.
It's also why the last 70 years of increasing Democracy in our government have seen a steady, and increasing, rate of decline in individual Rights.

Jimmy's time would be better spent in discussing why there are few human rights in the 60 Muslim nations (30% of UN membership) and in Latin America, whose people are immune from democratization. Then you could go on to Russia and the Central Asian states where democratization has been a laughable exercize. When you are done with that Jimmah, why don't you just close down that misbegotten empire of yours you call the Carter Center. It gives Atlanta a bad name.
