Carter 'Fesses Up: I'm Stupid and Punching Above My Weight

UPDATE: Please check resigned Carter Center official Kenneth Stein's long analysis of the faults and foibles of a guy over his head. Nut quote:

"The gap between many American Jews and Carter grew during his presidency as Carter increased pressure on Jerusalem. In the 1980 general election, Carter received a lower proportion of Jewish votes than any Democratic presidential candidate since 1920."

Although anyone with functioning frontal lobes in their cerebral cortex knows that superbantamweight
Jimmy Carter has been punching above his weight since he came to DC in '76 in the most regrettable [even to George McGovern and his wife, who both voted for Gerry Ford] electoral misstep the American people made in the twentieth century, Carter himself may be getting a glimmering of what everyone to the right of twittering moonbats have known for decades.

Carter suddenly had an epiphany at Brandeis in front of a potential mob of pitchfork-wielding hostiles concerning a passage in his laffer of a book Palestine: Peace not Apartheid which says:

"It is imperative that the general Arab community and all significant Palestinian groups make it clear that they will end the suicide bombings and other acts of terrorism when international laws and the ultimate goals of the Roadmap for Peace are accepted by Israel."

Now you can see why Sadat and Begin held this diminuitive dweeb in such contempt at Camp David, as the passage implies that terror is just fine with Jee-mah until Israel signs on to his own version of what they should sign onto [oops, that's another matter, as international laws are nearly as contemptible as Carter's diplomatic skills]. Even the short-hitter Jee-Mah agrees, admitting that the passage was "worded in a completely improper and stupid way."

This freak-show has been on the road ever since his peanut farm was baled out of bankruptcy many years ago by unknown benefactors [Mr. Soros, are you there?]. After his disastrous exit from the private sector, the bantamweight [or perhaps super flyweight] has been inserting himself into all sorts of situations he doesn't understand and preening and mincing for the cameras with his bug-eyed drawl while real NGO experts fume at his high-minded amateurism and simple-minded generalizations. [Ethiopian elections last year were a case in point where he said the elections were free and fair, after which he flew out of town leaving NGO election monitors to deal with the massive fraud and subsequent violence that actually occurred. One more flop from the fool from Plains.]

No one grilled the simpleton about his purloined map from Dennis Ross's book, a book written by an actual expert and not a censorious media-whore. But Alan Dershowitz disposed of the discredited candidate for a UN Special-Olympics diplomacy seat in the following manner:

"You heard the Brandeis Jimmy Carter today, and he was terrific," Mr. Dershowitz said. "I support almost everything he said. But if you listen to the Al Jazeera Jimmy Carter, you'll hear a very different perspective."

Carter represents an unsound mind in a vertically-challenged body. He is like every other short person [Chavez, Ahmadodojihad, Dear Leader] who wants to mix it up with the heavyweights.

Outclassed and punching above his weight.
