#1 Jimmah, I hate to say it, but why, in the name of mercy, can you not contract some dreaded disease and spare the rest of us your foolish pronouncements ?

#2 How could they have cheated when the entire purpose of the agreement was to give them time to make nukes? Carter knew what he was doing when he stuck his nose into the affair; he was working against the US (which he has never forgiven for rejecting him).

#3 That head looks just like one in a noose on a postage stamp. Separated at birth or scion and forebearer?

#6 He is derived from Mr Peanut!
We don't need to go deep into this sorid case of alien invasion but isn't it a conspircy being covered up that they grow most of the US peanuts and he looks like one?
Sort of return of the bodysnatchers?

#7 I don't want him dying of a disease. I'm a doc, I don't want that for any American. I just want him to sit down and shut up. He's a fool and he damn near wrecked the country in his four years.

#8 I don't intend this to be mean but could Jimmah have some brain disease? No one could be this devoid of reality. Perhaps Alzeimers?

#10 What gets me is that he's not saying. "in my considered opinion the North Koreans abided by the treaty." He says its "ridiculous" even to suggest the possibility they may have been dishonest. It bespeaks a deeply and troublingly unserious approach to an important national security issue.

Can a former President really be so naive to believe that no one could lie to his face? It must be nice to live in a world of good intentions and pure hearts, but that's not the planet I'm from.

#11 Just think, if somehow jimmuh had managed to beat Reagan in 1980, would the USSR still be in business?
He would have bailed them out, wouldn't he?

#12 Actually, he would not have had to since they would have had operational control of most of Central America, the Panama Canal, Southern Africa, most of the Persian Gulf oil areas, and large zones of the Phillipines, and the Malaca Straits.

#13 Just remember who all we funded/armed/supported under Reagan, and would have betrayed/soldout/killed under Carter : the Mujis in Afghanistan, UNITA in Angola, the Contras, the Phillipines Governments, all the friendly governments in Central America, and all of the Eastern Europeans struggling for freedom against the Soviets.

#14 CS, ya' beat me to it. I'm becoming more and more convinced that ole' Jimmah is becoming more and more delusional as he advances in years and that can really only be attributed to 2 things - Alzheimer's and BDS.

I know it was rhetorical but... YUP.

#16 Carter is rapidly becoming completely anti-American. He desperately needs to STFU.

#17 ...Another thing to keep in mind is that Jimmah has it in for the SKors. When he was in office, the SKors were a moderately unpleasant military dictatorship, and my understanding is that when he started on his 'repent' kick with them, he was politely told where to put it. In addition, the guy who was commander of US forces there at the time (IIRC John Singlaub) had the stones to stand up to Carter when he wanted to basically pull all US forces out of SKor. Jimmah felt even then that all the Norks needed was a little love and understanding, and the JCS just kept sucking their thumbs and going along with what he wanted. Singlaub paid for it with his career, but Carter never forgot it. To a great extent, it was the attitude of the SKor Army generals and Singlaub's refusal to go along with things that kept SKor from going down as badly if not worse than Iran did. Put simply, Jimmah does'nt like the South or anything having to do with it.

#18 Carter, a Democrat who helped broker the agreement with the North Koreans on behalf of then-President Bill Clinton, said the pact was ``observed pretty well by both sides'' for eight years.

In other words, the Norks abided by the treaty until just after Bush took office.

#21 Here's a quote from a PBS interview with dhimmi carter explaining why he went to Pyong Yong in '94 which led to that terrible agreement.

"I was convinced of this, because for almost three years, Kim Il Sung sent me a steady stream of invitations and personal entreaties to come to Pyongyang to let him explain the North Korean position, and to try to relay some communication back and forth with Washington, which at that time, seemed to be very difficult, if not impossible."

Can anybody guess why they wanted to negotiate with dhimmi carter so bad? I can't believe he didn't tear up the guantanamo bay lease. I bet that keeps him up at night.
