Her heart’s in the right place when she says that we ought to revoke Carter’s passport, but this is bad policy. I think we ought to let him go there, and let Hamas keep him. I know it’s cruel to Hamas, but international relations isn’t bean-bag, you know.
I do agree that we ought to de-fund the Carter Center and let Syria pick up the tab for the whole thing.

de-fund the Carter Center
I say we do a #6 on them.

It’s ok. It’s a lot understandable that Hamas would cling bitterly to their guns and religion. Someone is going to have to give up a piece of their pie so that someone else can have more is all.

That would definitely violate the Geneva Conventions and numerous other international human rights agreements.
Hen.
Let’s do it.

Were you aware that more Americans die from butter than guns? True fact. Google it.

@ Blazing Saddles
Rep. Joe Knollenberg has introduced legislation to do just that because of Carter’s recent Middle East vacation.

Seems like a fair trade to me.
Hamas gets Jimmy Carter from the U.S., while the Israelis get the U.S. Ballistic Shield.
Fair is Fair!

Just heard that Sue Myrick wants to take President Carters’ passport.
Who is Sue Myrick ? Checking on her background I found out that she’s just a nobody hungry for cheap publicity. She’s not worth the dust on Jimmy Carter’s shoes ! Just get lost lady and stop making a fool of yourself !

I think you’ve misspoken. Jimmy Carter isn’t worth the dust on Jimmy Carter’s shoes.

That comes up in a background check? And here, I thought she was a 7 term Congresscritter.
