I read your article and not once did I see the word saint used in reference to Khomeini. Apparently at the time he was seen as the lesser of two evils. But than again that was a generation ago and every president since then failed to make any corrections if it was , indeed, a mistake by Carter.

Yes.
The Carter people were the first Democrats that started loving America's Enemies.
And it's still going on..........
