LOL, I remember the killer rabbit.

Somehow the killer rabbit never became a big campaign issue.

I guess if you live long enough, you look back and see that everything in life has changed.

True, I was joking around. Let’s see, there were major issues with inflation, energy, the Iran hostage crisis, none of which Jimmy handled very well.

It’s been said before, but worth noting, that we may never have seen Ronald Reagan elected president, if not for the difficulties and ineptitude of Jimmy Carter as president.

7Wherefore do the wicked live,
Become old, yea, wax mighty in power?
8Their seed is established in their sight with them,
And their offspring before their eyes.
9Their houses are safe, without fear,
Neither is the rod of God upon them.
10Their bull gendereth, and faileth not;
Their cow calveth, and casteth not her calf.
11They send forth their little ones like a flock,
And their children dance.
12They sing to the timbrel and harp,
And rejoice at the sound of the pipe.
13They spend their days in prosperity,
And peacefully they go down to the grave.
14Yet they said unto God: ‘Depart from us;
For we desire not the knowledge of Thy ways.
15What is the Almighty, that we should serve Him?
And what profit should we have, if we pray unto Him?’—
16Lo, their prosperity is not in their hand;
The counsel of the wicked is far from me.

17How oft is it that the lamp of the wicked is put out?
That their calamity cometh upon them?
That He distributeth pains in His anger?
18That they are as stubble before the wind,
And as chaff that the storm stealeth away?
(Job 21)

I agree with you.

“Are you better off now than you were four years ago?”

So simple. So very effective.

Yuck, and what was with that cardigan sweater? "Schlemiel!" as my mother would have said.

Misterogers would have made a better President. As would, of course, Ozzie Nelson.

The fact that this old jew-hating scumbag is still drawing air is further proof that it is damn hard to kill evil.
