It's interesting that you had to go back to Carter to find a Dem President who served.

Where's Obama or Clinton's pictures in uniform?

 

[iamwhatiseem]

Jimmy Carter - great man. Abysmal President.

Jimmy Carter. Worst President in our history.

Ya gotta figure it's pretty hard to run that piece of shit country when you idiots allow the same assholes to loiter in DC for decades and decades.

I'll allow you that but I gotta' ask; Why couldn't he have been "The Great Accomplished Man" while he was President?

It's like he got elected and then turned the switch off or something.

“1980…Carter was the bumbling, egotistical coward bent on surrendering to the Soviets, who claimed to have been attacked by a giant swimming rabbit. Carter’s economic policies had produced a 21% interest rate, a 17% mortgage rate, and a 15% inflation rate in a ‘hat trick’ of presidential incompetence. Not only that, but he had produced skyrocketing unemployment.

Carter’s brilliant strategic ploy of abandoning the shah of Iran, an important American ally, soon led to soaring oil prices and, of course, Islamic lunatics holding fifty-two Americans hostage in Tehran, where they remained for 444 days, until Carter was safely removed from office by the American people. (Carter’s abandonment of the shah also gave rise to the global Islamofascist movement we’re still dealing with today.)
Under Carter, Americans were permitted to put gas in their cars only on alternate days, based on whether the last number of their license plates wan an even or odd number. The price of oil had risen 154% since the beginning of Carter’s presidency.

With all that going for them- plus that old Mondale magic- Democrats were dumbstruck that they lost the 1980 election. (Nor could they understand why gas prices, inflation and interest rates shot down and the nation enjoyed peace and prosperity soon after Reagan became president.) Naturally liberals asked themselves” What other than a dirty trick could explain Carter’s loss?

The Left’s theory was that in October, one month before the 1980 presidential election, members of Reagan’s campaign clandestinely met with representatives of the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini and offered to sell him weapons in exchange for his promise not to release the hostages before the election. By delaying the release of the hostages, the theory went, Reagan would deprive Carter of a triumphant victory on the eve of the vote. In other words, liberals believed the Islamofascist cutthroats who had been toying with Carter like a cat with a ball of yarn for the past year wanted Carter replaced by someone stronger, like Reagan.

But it seemed like a perfectly plausible theory to the editorial board of the New York Times.”
Coulter, “Demonic,” p. 84-85

Harding comes to mind

Harding comes to mind

Comes to WHAT?


Here, let me help with a comparison:


1. Harding, Kennedy and Obama are the only Senators to ascend directly to the White House.

a. Kennedy and Harding served as President for almost the same length of time. Harding’s reputation suffers due to the Teapot Dome Scandal, and Harding’s Attorney-General Daugherty charged with bribery (and acquitted).

Kennedy’s record was decidedly mixed, as well…Bay of Pigs, and involvement in Vietman vs. the Cuban missile crisis and the nuclear test ban. Both men were “chick magnets.”

Clearly, the two are not given equal shrift in the popular literature.

2. Historian Paul Johnson: “The deconstruction of the real Harding and his reconstruction as a crook, a philanderer, and a sleazy no-good was an exemplary exercise in false historiography .”

(That means that Liberals will accept any fable.)

Jeremy Rabkin: 'Harding must be considered the most successful postwar presidents in American history.”

Warren G. Harding - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

a business guy like Robmoney



His conservativism, affable manner, and "make no enemies" campaign strategy made Harding the compromise choice at the 1920 Republican National Convention. During his presidential campaign, in the aftermath of World War I, he promised a return of the nation to "normalcy". This "America first" campaign encouraged industrialization and a strong economy independent of foreign influence. Harding departed from the progressive movement that had dominated Congress since President Theodore Roosevelt. In the 1920 election, he and his running mate, Calvin Coolidge, defeated Democrat and fellow Ohioan James M. Cox in the largest presidential popular vote landslide in American history (60.36% to 34.19%) since popular vote totals were first recorded in 1824.[3]

President Harding rewarded friends and political contributors, referred to as the Ohio Gang, with financially powerful positions. Scandals and corruption, including the notorious Teapot Dome scandal, eventually pervaded his administration; one of his own cabinet and several of his appointees were eventually tried, convicted, and sent to prison for bribery or defrauding the federal government.[4] Harding did however make some notably positive appointments to his cabinet.[5]

not nearly as impressive as high treason by Reagan and Olly North.

Do you understand how the Morman Church works?

 

[Truthmatters]

Robmoney stopped his whole business because a fellow morman daughter ran away.


Mormons are VERY good at taking care of Mormons.

I think it a good thing that the church takes care of its own.

It just doesnt work very well in a democratic government position

1. “Standing in this presence, mindful of the solemnity of this occasion, feeling the emotions which no one may know until he senses the great weight of responsibility for himself, I must utter my belief in the divine inspiration of the founding fathers. Surely thee must have been God’s intent in the making of this new-world Republic.”
Inaugural Address, 1921.

a. Harding is credited with originating the phrase founding fathers.



2. You might be interested in his election, following the first Progressive President, Woodrow Wilson....


Democrats (Progressives) were thoroughly rejected by the voters in the election of 1920:

a. “The United States presidential election of 1920 was dominated by the aftermath of World War I and the hostile reaction to Woodrow Wilson, the Democratic president. Harding's victory remains the largest popular-vote percentage margin (60.3% to 34.1%) in Presidential elections after the so-called "Era of Good Feelings" ended with the victory of James Monroe in the election of 1820. ” United States presidential election, 1920 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

b. “In the 1920 election, [Harding] and his running-mate, Calvin Coolidge, defeated Democrat and fellow Ohioan James M. Cox, in what was then the largest presidential popular vote landslide in American history since the popular vote tally began to be recorded in 1824: 60.36% to 34.19%.”

Oh, look...another Liberal fable!

"The outcome of the constitutional struggle over the Iran-Contra matter would be decided in that exact way: by public judgment of the political clash in Washington. The joint House-Senate committee investigation of the Iran-Contra affair—an investigation Democrats likened to Watergate and hoped would end with Reagan’s impeachment—took a turn President Reagan’s critics had not expected when Lieutenant Colonel Oliver North appeared and delivered a devastatingly effective attack on liberals in Congress for their irresponsible meddling in foreign policy.

Public opinion decisively shifted in Reagan’s favor, and the liberal dream of driving another Republican president from office died quickly. In other words, the people judged, just as Locke said they should, and judged that Reagan had acted properly, if not necessarily wisely. The Unsolvable Problem of Executive Power | Power Line




The Iran-Contra scandal involved the sale of arms to Iran, basically to ransom American hostages that Islamic extremists held, and diverting proceeds from the sale to the Contras in Nicaragua. Neither the sale nor the diversions of funds were clear violations of existing laws: and subsequent independent counsel investigations directly charged no one with crimes for either the arms sales nor the diversions.

The Democrat Congress was strongly in favor of the communists of Nicaragua, and the scandal was an attempt to tie the hands of the President, who was strongly anti-communist.

Billy Carter or Amy Carter would have made a better president than the peanut man.
