In the Carter years, the United States was an international laughingstock. This was not just because of the prevalence of his ghastly kin: the beer-sodden brother Billy, doing deals with Libyan President Muammar Qaddafi, and the grisly matriarch, Miz Lillian. It was not just because of the president’s dire lectures on morality and salvation and his weird encounters with lethal rabbits and UFOs. It was not just because of the risible White House “Bible study” sessions run by Bert Lance and his other open-palmed Elmer Gantry pals from Georgia. It was because, whether in Afghanistan, Iran, or Iraqstill the source of so many of our woesthe Carter administration could not tell a friend from an enemy. His combination of naivete and cynicismfrom open-mouthed shock at Leonid Brezhnev’s occupation of Afghanistan to underhanded support for Saddam in his unsleeping campaign of megalomaniahad terrible consequences that are with us still. It’s hardly an exaggeration to say that every administration since has had to deal with the chaotic legacy of Carter’s mind-boggling cowardice and incompetence.

don't read them. and throwing a fit about posts that, in your opinion, lack substance are even less substantive than the posts you are whining about.

I hope Carter never dies. He is a poster child for failed yet stubborn liberal philosophies.
If anyone forgets, his approach to BOTH fiscal policy (a huge run up in government spending) and monetary policy (his joke of a Federal Reserve board chairman) had this country asking what it had done to deserve that much economic punishment.

Careless, in that he shouldn’t have said it where it could be proven that he said it. Obviously he’s sorry for doing it that way...

The man is an evil old grump who should be made the face of the Dem Party in GOP ads. It might staunch the bleeding from the BASE when they realize any Dem is worse than any GOPer.

Interviewed on the TODAY Show about the comments, Carter said, "They were maybe careless or misinterpreted."
He's missing the point,.....NO ONE CARES!

Hey, that man's been opening his mouth just to change feet for at LEAST the last 31 years.
Doesn't he realize that he was on the losing end of the biggest anti-incumbent landslide in American political history?
Why doesn't he just eat some more peanuts and just STFU?
