The one with "Foreign Policy Experience" Jimmy Obama

It took some doing to outdo Jimmy Carter for incompetence, but he's done it!

Not to put too fine a point on it, but here we go again.
A liberal American president helps push a Middle East leader -- a dictator but a friendly dictator -- out the door. The Administration is so convinced the country's would be leader will lead to peace and freedom that the American UN Ambassador refers to the leader-in-waiting as "some kind of saint."
The "saint" arrives to take charge… and the next thing that happens is the US Embassy is invaded, the entire Embassy staff is taken hostage -- and world crisis begins.
This was, of course, what happened when then-President Jimmy Carter helped push the Shah of Iran out the door. And his Ambassador to the United Nations, Andrew Young, referred to the US government's view of the Ayatollah Khomeini as "some kind of saint."
Well, no.
What happened in fact was that Jimmy Carter telegraphed weakness to Khomeini -- not to mention the Soviets. Khomeini was barely settled on the Shah's throne when the U.S. Embassy hostages were taken in November of 1979. Barely a month later, the Soviets invaded Afghanistan. Carter, who had signed a nuclear treaty with then Soviet leader Brezhnev and memorably kissed the Communist leader on the cheek, pronounced himself shocked.
Make no mistake here.
The Obama administration insistence on the now-infamous "apology tour" approach to the world has backfired.
