Shock: Jimmy Carter and Wife Taken In By Developing-World Miscreants Posing As Humanitarians
Donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to oil-for-palaces scandal bigs; transactions being scrutinized by law enforcement.
I have to say I doubt very much that Jimmy Carter and/or his wife were involved in any sort of criminal way (except, perhaps, in the sense of criminal naivete, which alas you can't be charged for, else Tim Robbins would be in and out of jail more frequently that Robert Downey Jr.).
But this is so illustrative of the left-wing mindset that no NGO and no developing-world cause can possibly be less than scrupulous and noble.
Sort of like the observation of one juror in one of Sideshow Bob's numerous trials: "No one who speaks German could be a bad man."
