How bad can it really get in year six of the Presidency? Well so bad Jimmy Carter the long disgraced former President is leveling harsh criticism at Barack Obama and his failed, lost and collapsing foreign policy. Jimmy Carter making comments on anything involving foreign policy is absurd and embarrassing. Remember Carter is the man that brought us 444 days of Americans being held hostage. They were released you may recall on the day Ronald Reagan took office. Why? They knew damn well Ronnie would bring his countrymen home.

Be that as it may Carter told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram in Texas “we waited too long, we let the Islamic State build up its money, capability and strength and weapons while it was still in Syria. Then when ISIS moved into Iraq, the Sunni Muslims didn't object to their being there and about a third of the territory in Iraq was abandoned."

Carter was also asked directly what is Obama’s foreign policy? His answer was, well awkward at best “It changes from time to time," said Carter. "I noticed that two of his secretaries of defense, after they got out of office, were very critical of the lack of positive action on the part of the president."

Lack of positive action? Yeah that’s one way to say he is an abject failure even in the estimation of Jimmy Carter- Ouch that hurts!

Of course a jaded person might think Carter is just using the chance to bury Obama in the history books so he is no longer considered America's worst President- or at least the worst since World War Two. You decide who's worse Carter or Obama. Such a hard choice so I guess we should let them fight it out.
