Give us back Jimmy Carter!

By David Lawrence

The day Reagan took over office from Jimmy Carter, our hostages in Iran were released. Iran manipulated it so that Carter looked like a fool. True. He was humiliated. Carter had been feckless. He turned the most powerful nation in the world into a paper tiger. He was afraid to use our natural power because he had the naïve notion that his passiveness was kindness rather than dangerous to us.

But Carter was Superman compared to Obama. Ali Younesi, Rouhani’s senior advisor, calls Obama “the weakest of U.S. presidents.” He says, “Americans witnessed their greatest defeats in Obama’s era: Terrorism expanded, [the] U.S. had huge defeats under Obama [and] that is why they want to compromise with Iran.”…..Obama is bankrolling and financing the terrorists in the Middle East. He is either consciously or unwittingly a traitor……I long for the good old days of cowardly Carter. So much better than surrender Obama
