Obama and Hillary throw Carter under the bus thanks to pressure by the right

[gore000408]

As soon as the right-wing, including the Scooter-Libby-loving Washington Post editorial board criticized Jimmy Carter for planning a meeting with the Hamas leadership, Obama an Hillary's campaigns quickly jumped to disagree with Carter. I was disappointed with their decision really. Arafat, for example, was once a terrorist and turned out to be a Nobel Prize winner of peace later on. Hamas can follow the same path. Why not?
