Don't they realize he gets plenty of credit for being the peaceful prosperous country they have become?

Zimbabwe has refused to let Kofi Annan and two eminent colleagues visit the impoverished African country for a humanitarian mission, the three said Saturday.
The former U.N. secretary-general, ex-U.S. President Jimmy Carter and rights advocate Graca Machel had planned to assess the country's needs. They are members of The Elders group, formed by former South African President Nelson Mandela to foster peace and tackle world conflicts.

Now if we can only refuse these traitors re-entry into the USA!!
Jimmy Carter must be sad?
Just damn. I would hope they would let them in and then keep them there.
Either that or have them kept hostage and with Obama’s gutlessness they’d be executed via firing squad. Ironically Mugabe would be helpful in that respect. If they’re kept alive, they’d be out of the way for four years.
Do they still have head shrinkers in Zimbabwe? Carter needs his skull shrunk to match his peanut sized brain.
Zimbabwe should have let them in and fed them to Niger Crocodiles.
Missed Opportunity.
I kinda wish he would have let Carter in and then thrown in him in some prison where he couldn’t communicate with anyone.
Mugabe can’t let them in just yet. He hasn’t finished building the Potemkin village.
Carter probably hailed Zimbabwe as the finest land of liberty after the turnback. Mugabe came to power in the Carter years.
They are afraid that they will run for high office and only make things worse.
Time to invade.
I think we should airdrop them in, with chutes even. Now is that honorable or not?
There’s hope for Zimbabwe yet, if they continue to make good decisions...

Waste of good parachutes.
But this suggests a solution to the problem of how to return the Gitmo "Detainees" to their home countries...
081122 “Mugabe came to power in the Carter years.”
For those of you too young to remember, Carter is the one who put him in office. For many years, Rhodesia was a wonderful, productive, food exporting country/colony. Then Britain gave Rhodesia (now named Zimbabwe) it’s independence, and a good conservative, pro western government was elected and the communist left was rejected. Carter refused to accept this and so another election was held. Again they were elected, and again Carter rejected this. Finally, on the third election, the pro-communist Mugubawe was elected, and Carter cheered, and the destruction of Rhodesia/Zimbabwe was begun.
Oh, he is certainly that:
a sad excuse for a man.
If this is how Mugabe treats his “friends” I’d hate to see how he treats his enemies.
What a piss poor excuse for a country.
Thanks for the history lesson bookmark.
One would think Jimmy Carter and Andrew Young would be national heros in Zimbabwe. They had a major role in bringing Mugabe and his communist thugs to power.
Carter wants to go to Zimbabwe because it’s the only place where he looks good by comparison.
F Carter. I never knew that. Thanks for the history lesson. Carter has a long history of giving aid and comfort to third world savages like Ayatollah Khomeini and Daniel Ortega
Bingo! Give that man a cigar...
Don't they realize he gets plenty of credit for being the peaceful prosperous country they have become?
Carter should have told them he was there to certify the election. That would have worked!
Does that mean they cannot get to the money they have stashed in that part of the world???
The Marxists of the world are angling to take over Zimbabwe and the current Zimbabwe thugs know it. Freedom is not in the cards for Zimbabwe if the Marxists have their way.
Thanks geo.
BTW, it must be that the Zimbabwean crisis just started since the US election — otherwise Carter would have been doing his tour long ago, in between “monitoring” elections in Nicaragua, Venezuela, etc.
If Zimbabwe can, we can. Leave these bastards exiled in the jungles of New Guinea.
