JAM files for Monday April 28, 2008 - Carter's Last 15 minutes of fame?

WILL THIS BE BRE’RE JIMMEH’S SWAN SONG?

 

Observers of Ex-President Jimmy Carter are wondering just what moves him to sally forth on his own peace initiatives when requested not to by parties on both sides. The reports he puts out are that no one has asked him not to go – but the White House requests have seemed very public – and the results are less than spectacular. Foreign policy negotiations are like a fluffy cake or a souffle’ – likely to fall when jostled. Carter, by his presence and visits also builds up people who stand in opposition to what the U.S. is trying to negotiate.  He must know this but chooses to ignore it and ends up making a difficult situation generally impossible.

“JUST A MINUTE”

LAST 15 MINUTES OF FAME?

Just A Minute – Former President Jimmy Carter has managed to give a fair impression of Chuck Schumer or Jesse Jackson in running to where the lime-lights may be focused – only his specialty is messing around in international issues. The Internet’s “Scrappleface” blog, authored by Scott Ott, called his unbidden appearance on the doorstep of Palestinian rulers, an exercise in “One Party” negotiations – and suggests his efforts might better be used in negotiating a cease-fire between the Obama and Clinton campaigns.

So the question is being asked – what’s happened to this Nobel Peace Prize laureate? Is he seeking a final 15 minutes of fame before exiting the international stage for the last time providing prestige to international terrorists? Accounts from former Secret Service personnel, interviewed by book authors about Bre’re Jimmeh’s haughty private personnel practices, have already  smudged his ‘smiley face’ reputation.

            Whatever the reasons, Ex President Carter shows a proclivity of abandoning ethics while sullying an already tattered public record with a larger moral error.
