Can’t distinguish genuine friends from genuine enemies.

Can’t distinguish real problems from imaginary ones.

Can’t distinguish failure from success.

Think that the looniest idea is the most brilliant ’cause nobody else is pushing it.

And think that continuing to lurch from disaster to disaster is a resume enhancement and shows they “really care”.

I hope you are right, Teddy. I prefer to just think of that boat by its designation SSN 23, third in the Seawolf class. Aside from its wussy nameplate, it’s got toys built into it that would make any submariner (aside from those who love boomers, that is) green with envy.

Now if only that boat becomes the “Shangri-La” (yes, WWII reference) that launches an attack on certain soft targets in Iran…

I hope this is not going to become a trend. By that I mean ex-presidents refusing to keep their hands out of the political pot. They could do a lot of harm since people in other countries may not understand that it’s all rhetoric with no real power behind it. Carter needs to go back to the farm and shut up.

It seems like it’s becoming a trend among living Democratic ex-presidents.

On that note, imagine how much damage BillyJeff will do to US interests around the world in the years to come…

I do hope he lives long enough to witness that the first strike of our coming attack on Iran is (hopefully) launched from the USS Carter, and to hear Dubya repeat that point just to rub that little wussy’s nose in it though.

Weep that the hostage situation and the failed rescue attempt meant only one thing to that sorry excuse of a person, his loss of office.

Cringe at our lack of vision, revisiting the loss and the judgment on today’s person in office who is merely another form of the same globalist. Like the Star Trek Bork, globalist assimilation is inevitable according to themselves.

Which candidate eschews globalism with a practical strategy to protect our original Constitution: liberty and justice under the law?

Forgive the rant, but wasn’t GWBush the Governor of Texas 13 years ago during the trial of the murderous raping criminal and illegal scum from Mexico now legally condemned to death? With liberty and justice under the law, the sell-out Carter by any other name would be known as Bush.

There was a day that I could speak the name of Jimmy Carter with a note of respect.

You must have been non-existent or mentally incapacitated during the man’s presidency, then.

He and the Democrat Congress of the time nearly destroyed our economy. I experienced the destruction firsthand.

He made us look as weak as any Third World country by twiddling his thumbs while our citizens were rotting in Iran for a year and a half, stemming from a diplomatic situation that he himself caused.

He mumbled feeble condemnations at the Soviets while they invaded Afghanistan and pushed Communism forward in South America, while sitting on his hands.

There was talk among the (crypto-Marxist) pundits of the American presidency being too difficult for one person, and some advocated splitting the job up for several people. A politburo, if you will.

Thank God for Reagan.

I can hold my head up high. My first vote in 1980 was for a certain californian ex actor

My first vote was 1984, at age 19. I chose to vote for an old, out of touch, cowboy who the left said was going to start WW3. God bless Ronald Reagan

Even after all these years he still doesn’t realize he was the worst president in history.

Black Adam on October 12, 2007 at 1:22 AM

True. Of course, he also does not grasp that dictators LIE, or that the Communism was evil, or that gas regulation was a miserable failure. He is the very definition of stuck on stupid.

Maybe this is why people associate a southern accent with stupidity. Fortunately, Jimmy isn’t representative of the whole south.

BeachBaby on October 12, 2007 at 6:13 AM

Only idiots do that, and Jimmy is a disgrace to the South. A far, far cry from Washington, Jeffeson, Madison, Monroe, Lee and so many other great Southerners.

Once again we see how racist liberals are, refusing to believe the Iranian leadership could actually have an independent agenda.
