#1 Well, Carter and I agree on one thing: Whomsoever would do such a thing, shame on them.

Now all we need to do is figure out who did it.

#3 If I'm not mistaken they've been "removing" themselves from Palestine, where their lives are in danger, to Israel - where they in fact are not. One of the many groups the dastardly Israelis have encouraged to not die over the years.

BTW has Carter converted to Salafist Islam yet? Or will that be a "death bed" thing?

#5 I think Carter has that subtlety of anti-semitism that I know quite well, and that he knows quite well, that appeals to some people in the middle east -- particularly the Islamic terrorists,

#7 They're comin' ta git ya, Jimmuh!
Bettah run an' skedaddle an' hide!
'Cause if'n they lay mitts on ya, Jimmuh,
Th' Pookas will skin your tanned hide!

Them Pookas is friend-e-like critters,
They's peaceable an' lovin' an' fair,
But a villain who sets out to rile them,
Sets hisself on a path of despair.

Pookas is parful mag'cal bein's,
Found in mineshafts, th' air, an' water,
They can cause double-digit inflation,
Or make emerods larger than they autter.

They're comin' ta git ya, Jimmuh!
Bettah run an' skedaddle an' hide!
'Cause if'n they lay mitts on ya, Jimmuh,
Th' Pookas will skin your tanned hide!

#8 Why do we end up with malevolent idiots such as Carter in leadership positions? These loons create more harm than good.

#9 Why do we end up with malevolent idiots such as Carter in leadership positions?

Cause the system is rigged. Failure and unethical behavior are rewarded. Consequently, even the most mundane individual appears to be a giant among those in the same occupation. Just like journalism.

#11 Why do we end up with malevolent idiots such as Carter in leadership positions?

I think the common wisdom is that jimmuh owes his career, such as it was, to Gerald Ford and Richard Nixon. Ford pardoned Nixon for his role in the Watergate scandal. IMHO it was the decent thing for Ford to do but by that time with the bitter memories of Vietnam still fresh the American people turned to Carter in the 1976 election over Ford. IMHO Ford was one of the best presidents we ever had, relentlessly battling Lyndon Johnson's Great Society inflation with his veto power. We'd been through hell as a country and Ford, it seemed to me, was having some success in bringing us out of it but after jimmuh took office things went south again in a big, ugly way. Thank God for Ronald Reagan who deposed this spiteful little man.
