Here's the Carter Rule: Whatever Mr. Carter wants to do, just do the opposite and you probably won't go wrong!

Senile or Deluded? Yes
Senile or deluded... senile or deluded... senile or deluded... senile or deluded...
Senile or deluded... senile or deluded...
BTTT
Why, he's senile, deluded, stupid and a flaming liberal America-hater.
Why would anyone ask?
He's about as relevant as a..., uh, well, let's just say he ain't relevant to nothing.
Period.
I truly don't know how the fool got elected, since I can't find anyone, anyone, that will now admit to voting for the damned panty-waist.
Advanced stages of both.
One (or more) of our cities will glow because of these clowns. Is America stupid enough to elect another Dim?
I don't think Carter is senile, nor deluded. He is just appallingly dishonest as are the rest of his cohorts in crime.
Not only is he both of those, but I would add stupid to the list of his characteristics as well.
Sanctions? Appeasement or blackmail is what it was - Millions of American tax dollars were sent to the little back-stabbing country through the thieving United Nations......President Bush decided it was time to take an honest stand - which Jimmy Carter would not understand in his little pea brain of Human Rights first regardless of that being also mostly worthless.
Carter isn't deluded or senile, his ego collides with common sense which renders him silly old man not particularly bright in the first place.
President Bush is moving in the right direction, trying hard not to repeat past mistakes hard in any light when you are dealing with a maniac like Kim Jong-il.
Jimmy Peanut Carter is a bozo alert!!
Not only did Carter force his way into the North Korean crisis in 1994 (the Clinton administration didn't want him, and initially was more ready to at least appear tough), but Carter was abjectly servile to North Korea's agenda, pressed for a "resolution" to the crisis that would give North Korea everything it wanted without any real controls, and lied repeatedly in public in order to sway the course of the crisis toward his preferred resolution. Carter was not some even-handed negotiator but rather proved to be a lying shill for North Korea under the guise of pursuing "peace for our time:"
(1) When still in Korea Carter announced on CNN that the crisis was "over" before the Clinton WH had even had a chance to be briefed on the supposed "results" of Carter's negotiations, i.e, the Peanut-brain was publicly pressuring his own gov't to cave to North Korea on his terms (Carter later claimed he had merely mis-spoken about the crisis being "over" so soon, but no one who is supposed to be versed in high-level negotiations can be allowed to "mis-speak" on such a fundamental matter);
(2) There was another point when Carter made a completely false public pronouncement in order to pressure the USA to cave....
(3) When meeting back home with Clinton officials, Carter rejected an attempt to get him to keep his "report" within the administration and insisted that he would issue whatever pronouncements he wished through his Carter Center mailing list, etc. so that he could spin things his way and exert more pressure on his own government.
(4) Everyone should read the letter that Carter wrote to the North Korean dictator (Kim Jong-Ill's papa, who died later that year). It is unbelievably fawning and servile, even for "diplomacy".... showing the dark and servile heart of Jimmy Carter when he is trying to advance his candidacy for the Nobel Fools' Prize. The letter was reprinted in a book I was thumbing through in the bookstore the other day. I couldn't bear to buy the book because it is such a groveling apologia for Jimmy Carter by one of his main lackeys (see link below). In this letter Carter grovels to Kim Jong-Ill's papa even says he (Carter) hopes that Kim Il-Sung's "dream" of a united Korean nation will be achieved!!!!! That's right, I couldn't believe it, a former US president actually telling the North Korean despot that they share a dream of a united Korea....... of course, any moron should know that the terms on which North Korea could achieve a "united" Korea are not the terms acceptable to South Korea or the USA. Jimmy Carter is truly a servile, grovelling peacenik weasel who coddles the world's worst dictators.......
Whatever malady he suffers from it has been a lifelong affliction.
yes
"Carter on Korea: senile or deluded?"
BOTH!
Carter's like Clinton - he's searching for a legacy that doesn't exist. As I've said before, Jimmah must have been pea green with envy at the lavish honors and sincere mourning felt when Ronaldus Magnus left us - and knowing that in the end, his death will barely cause of ripple. A failed man, a failed presidency, a failed diplomacy. Yes, he won the Nobel Peace Prize - but that accolade lost its luster the day Yassir Arafat put the word "laureate" next to his name.
And he was awarded the NPP for his diplomatic handling of North Korea's nuclear situation - which is now, of course, a disaster. But blame Bush for this, Jimmah - I'm sure the tin foil brigade still believes in you.
