Former President Jimmy Carter Dead

View attachment 1059453


Carter was a good man and a terrible president.

Amazing, he did not make hundreds of millions of dollars after leaving office.

One of the few Democrats who was not CORRUPT AF.

**** 55 MPH. What a dipshit.

**** wearing a sweater inside my home.

Carter did not start any wars and did not seem corrupt. I will give him that….because Clinton, Obama, and Biden started wars and are very very very very corrupt.
 
Stagflation. Gas lines. and 444 days of Americans held by Iran.

The beginning of the Terrorist Head Choppers of Iran.

We can say nice guy all day but that is his legacy. We have had nothing but pain from Iran since then.

Funny, we inflicted 25 years of the Shah on Iran and then spend the last 45 years punishing Iran for not choosing a form of government we like.

Seems to me that we are in the wrong here, not Iran

$1.74 per gallon gas was unimaginable before Carter was elected. Of course, Biden topped that at $6.44 per gallon of gas and $7.01 for diesel in California on 6/18/22.
 

I've always felt that Carter was a decent human being, but was woefully unqualified to be POTUS.

Thankfully, he held on long enough to lose the title as the most incompetent President in our nation's history.

Okay, let's be blunt about Carter's main flaw.

he was what we wanted him to be.

After Nixon and his shenanigans, America wanted a president who was honest and ineffectual, and that's what they got with Carter.

Most of the problems Carter inherited were beyond his control. Inflation was already spiraling out of control under Ford. The first oil shock came in 1974. And the Shah of Iran was going down and there wasn't much we could do about it.

The stagflation was created by LBJ and his incomprehensibly stupid policy of both guns and butter - the welfare and warfare states turned up to 11....Nixon, Ford, and Carter merely had to eat the downsides.
 
I was very pleased to vote for Jimmy Carter when he won. I got angry at him over his treatment of our olympics athletes. I got pissed and blamed him for the depression. On that he was not at fault. But he cured me of wanting him as president. It was a sad picture of him with his gaping mouth in a wheelchair on his final birthday.

Well, Carter didn't have a depression, he had a MILD recession. More mild than the Reagan Recession of 1981-82. More mild than the second Bush recession of 2008. More mild than the First Trump recession of 2020. (We'll see how the second Trump recession turns out, but I'm sure it will be bad.)

As for the Olympic Athletes... **** them.

You don't dine in Moscow when Moscow is committing atrocities.
 
Jimmy led a great life after being president. So on that he gets praise. But he sure left the presidency in a shambles. He got whipped by Reagan. Reagan is the nation's finest of all times president.

Reagan is the one who gave us perpetual debts with this "voodoo" economics. We are still paying for that until today.
 
Sure, traitors do not want America to be great. You happen to be one.

Depends on what you consider to be great.

I consider a great country to be one that takes care of its poor people and is seen as a beacon around the world.

You seem to think great is taking care of the rich, and being an international bully.

Those athletes dedicated their entire lives for their one shot at being an Olympian.

They didn’t choose Moscow as the venue. Pretty much every city/country ever chosen as a venue has just as many skeletons in their closet as Moscow did. The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan had no more or less atrocities than the US in Vietnam.

Plus, the boycott accomplished nothing. It changed nothing, and most of our allies didn’t even participate in it.

So now the Right thinks Carter should have seized the oil companies and set gas prices?

The 'shortage' was a hoax, just another price fixing scam by the Too Big To Fail crowd and their Watergate Babies in Congress.

I'm sorry they wasted their lives on something so meaningless.

Refresh my memory, were there any Olympics held in the US between 1965 and 1973?


Plus, the boycott accomplished nothing. It changed nothing, and most of our allies didn’t even participate in it.

Actually, much of the world did. Oddly enough, China did.

Regardless of the reason, the President always bears the responsibility for high prices, shortages, and supply line disruptions.
 
Yeah, cuz becoming a Soviet puppet dictatorship would have been so much better.

Idiot.


On August–September 1941, Pahlavi Iran had been jointly invaded and occupied by the Allied powers of the Soviet Red Army in the north and by the British in the centre and south.[6] Iran was used by the Americans and the British as a transportation route to provide vital supplies to the Soviet Union's war efforts.[6]

In the aftermath of the occupation of Iran, those Allied forces agreed to withdraw from Iran within six months after the cessation of hostilities.[6] However, when this deadline came in early 1946, the Soviets, under Joseph Stalin, remained in Iran. Soon, the alliance of the Kurdish and People's Azerbaijani forces, supported in arms and training by the Soviet Union, engaged in fighting with Iranian forces,[1] resulting in a total of 2,000 casualties. Negotiation by Iranian premier Ahmad Qavam and diplomatic pressure on the Soviets by the United States eventually led to Soviet withdrawal and dissolution of the separatist Azerbaijani and Kurdish states.
