“Former President Jimmy Carter says the political unrest and rioting in Egypt is an earth-shaking event and that President Hosni Mubarak probably will have to leave office.”

Maybe Jimma will go over there and quiet things down by giving a speech or appearing on television. /s

He has so much to be thankful for, but he just can’t sit quietly and shut up

Well, Jimmuh was instrumental in allowing Iran to fall under radical Islam.

Why not Egypt to?

Once Egypt falls back, how long before Jordan, Saudi Arabia and eventually, every gain our Troops fought and died for in Iraq disappear as well?

If this is anything like what Jimmy experienced, Barry will have to leave office too.

Jimmah Carter must be so happy. First he give away Iran and now his protege gives away Egypt.

Let’s see how the next several days go.

With Obama in office, it’s like a rewind to the Carter years - he loses Iran to anti-American fanatics, and the same thing will happen to Egypt under his idealogical twin brother, Obummer.

*sniff* Jimmah must be so proud.

It is that kind of deep political thought and analysis that has made Jimmy Carter one of America’s worst Presidents.

The man lacks the common sense to know when he should just sit tight and shut his yap.

Some reporter came calling, and he just couldn't resist, being the respected elder statesman and self-acknowledged expert on the middle east that he is.

I think Jimmy is reminiscing. He’s got the Ayatollah’s picture out, popped the blue pill, and opened a jar of peanut oil.

Jimmy Carter commenting on Egypt is like OJ speaking out against Domestic violence..Jimmy should just shut his trap..maybe Chrissy Matthews while he is not busy trying to figure out where the heck the Panama Canal is can give him a call and tell him to shut his trap

I am really surprised that Jimmah has not raced over to Cairo to help in the matter of peace to his beloved Egyptians. He comes out with a stupid statement that sounds more like his wife or daughter wrote it for him.

Carter is very much to blame for continued problems in the middle east. Obama will prove to be as inept. If only Hillary would shut her pie hole about “Must transition to Democracy etc”, the USA would not look so stupid. Democracy has no chance in the Arab/Islamic world.
