#1 State Dep't is pretty ballsy about ex-presidents meeting with bad guys, but when it comes to sitting politicians, they left their spine at home. worthless hacks.

#2 State Department should have said to Carter and publicly announced:

1) Carter is meeting with a terrorist and the US can do nothing to assure his saftey. He will receive no Secret Service protection as we will not put such personnel into harm's way without appropriate protection.

2) Such meeting with terrorists during wartime constitutes a violation of the Logan Act at a minimum and if Carter chooses to return to the US, he will be subject to prosecution to the full extent of the law based on his actions in dealing with a foreign enemy.

#4 "the honourable James Earl Carter"

You mean there's an honorable guy out there stuck with Jimmuh Peanut's name, tw?

Poor guy! Hope he's not kin or anything - that would be too much of a cross to bear.
