It's hard to argue with that statement. Obama's administration has been one continuous comedy of errors, corruption and scandal. Fast and Furious. O-care rollout debacle. "It was about a video". Using IRS to attack political opponents. Lerner's lost emails. Hillary's "wiped" server". Wiretapping reporters. Wiretapping foreign leaders. Trading terrorists for a deserter. Now, illegal wiretapping of the DNCs political opponent. No doubt more corrupt than Nixon, who only had ONE scandal to destroy his presidency.
Biggest difference? Nixon was considerably smarter than Obama. He stepped down, selected his successor-who in turn issued a pre-meditated presidential pardon for Nixon. Obama...wasn't that bright. He was so convinced that Clinton would be his successor that he made no provisions for a "get out of jail free" card.
I don't think Carter was incompetent. He was a nuclear engineer. But his own party did turn on him. If it had not been for Ted Kennedy, I think Carter might have beaten Reagan in 1980.
It is pretty clear however that Obama is about as corrupt as they have come. I thought the Bush administration via Dr. Strangelove was underhanded, but less than 2 months out of office and the revelations starting to come out about Obama should disturb any American.

Pointing elsewhere without acknowledging the truth about their adored ex-president is like the kid who is caught in wrongdoing, points at his sibling and says "but what about her/him?"
Except here, they're not kids. At least, I don't think it's kids posting here.

So, yes....more incompetent than Carter....
If he wasn't protected by being black he would have IMO been held accountable for his failures, corruptions and so forth.
