Did anyone see the series “10 Steps to Disaster”? It was a new episode last month or so on the Iran hostage crisis.

Let me loosely quote one of the idiotic biased statements on that episode”

“Carter sacrificed his presidency for the good of the hostages.”

I kid you not. We all laughed here at home.

One of the recent threads on him discussed an incident he was strongly involved in. Probably a hospice thread. It did not sound like he was just a book guy, in that case.

They didn’t accept it. It was foisted upon them as you indicated.

I think the networks and some others realized maybe it’s too close for comfort to have Dems show red. We already knew they love communist flags.

And Wiki has fully adopted this as all election results are shown in this scheme.

Well, he is right.

I’ll paraphrase that for just about every aggrieved preferred group.

He graduated USNA with an engineering degree, as countless others before and after him have done. He “acquired” the “nuclear engineer specialty” in an impossible 2 year post Academy mandatory service (schmoozing with Admiral Rickover- who was Jew-ish btw, interesting for Jimmah the Anti-Semitic Saudi lover). He “took on” the description for political reasons, and advancement, but then his daddy the peanut loser farmer died— and Jimmah quit his mandatory 4 year service.

That is the truth about mr. carter. And all Georgians know it.

Jimmy Carter was not a nuclear engineer. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree from the United States Naval Academy in 1946.

“He graduated from the US Naval Academy in June 1946 (he entered in 1943 with the class of 1947, but his class was in a war-driven accelerated 3 year program) with an undesignated bachelor of science degree. Even if the Naval Academy had offered a majors program for his class, it is unlikely that it would have included Nuclear Engineering as a option – after all, the Manhattan Project was a dark secret for most of his time at Annapolis.

After graduation, Jimmy Carter served as a surface warfare officer for two years and then volunteered for the submarine force. He served in a variety of billets, including engineer officer of diesel submarines and qualified to command submarines.

In November 1952, he began a three month temporary duty assignment at the Naval Reactor branch. He started nuclear power school (a six month course of study that leads to operator training) in March, 1953. In July 1953, his father passed away and he resigned his commission to run the family peanut farm. He was discharged from active duty on 9 October, 1953. According to an old friend of mine who served as Rickover’s personnel officer at Naval Reactors, LT Carter did not complete nuclear power school because of the need to take care of business at home.

The prototype for the USS Nautilus was completed in Idaho in May 1953, so LT Carter might have had some opportunity to see it in action before leaving the Navy. However, the USS Nautilus did not go to sea until January 17, 1955, so there is no possibility that he ever qualified to stand watch on a nuclear powered submarine.”

thank you details both sides of family USNA grads of that same class knew all about him, and subsequent family grads of the early 50’s. Including on the Nautilus. So tiring to listen to the created drivel about Carter. He was average, and probably a better peanut farmer. And his spawn are not nice apparatchiks at best.

The photo that says it all is jimmah, and his wifey climber grasper she is— photo taken with Fidel Castro, whom he, and Justin Castreau (Fidel’s bastard son now PM of Canada) all in the name of world Socialism. Along with the ridiculous apology for being a Southern Baptist and apologizing for having plantations (in very few cases were they ever owners- more like overseer class). Whatever- this guy was better by far than the Muslim Brotherhood’s implanted Communist Kenyan Obamaumao the First. Absolutely the worst, and a hater of our Country.

Carters admire to this day, Daniel Ortega, and several other dictators of S. America, Dominican Republic and especially Fidel Castro.

The treatment of the Shah Pahlavi in medical need is one of the worst examples of the sheer hypocrisy and dedication to the world Socialist/Communist and yes the Islamofascist world goals— the Carter Center almost fully underwritten by that bastard Talwaleed (who offered NYC 10 million dollars the day after 9-11. To which Giuliani’s reply was to go straight to the Hell he created. Talwaleed removed from all power within the House of Saud by Bin Salman- whom Trump arranged the Abraham Accords through, only to have the moron Biden destroy all of it and hand it to Iran. Democrats, explained. Central anti-Israel all the way).
