Who cares? And other than a few RAT trolls on FR, why post it here?
Wonder how many will show up. When they did it for McCain mostly democrats showed up and there were less then a dozen people for the motorcade
“…the public can pay their respects until the morning of January 7.”
Quick! Everybody book your flights and hotels. Jump to it!
I wish they did not make a big deal about Carter’s dying, but you can bet the “powers that be” will make a big public spectacle laying to rest this man who did so much damage to the world by his naive policies. Carter will always be known to me for 1) record high interest rates, 2) the gas crisis 3) giving away the Panama Canal, 4) encouraging the rise of Islamic fundamentalism in Iran by stabbing the Shah in the back, 5) his cringe-worthy “malaise” speech, and 6) the Iran hostage crisis where he let those stone age sand people humiliate the USA for several years while he cowered in the White House.
Well Scooby Doo can doo doo but Jimmy Carter is smarter.
This kinda bothers me. Not because it’s Carter. It’s because of our propensity to treat presidents (and ex-presidents) as if they were high royalty.
Flags at half-mast for 30 days. Really?
I do think that the flags should be at full staff from January 20th...and beyond. Flag manners are not exactly Law...and the 30 day lowering has been interrupted before.
When Obama goes, will he lie in repose in Kenya?
The gov employees given day off to morn. How about they make them return to their work places from working at home and morn there.
Convenient, day off Thursday. Alleged work day Friday and three day weekend honoring MLK. How sweet it is. My guess Friday becomes a non day too, morning is tough.
There should be gas lines at all gas stations on the day of his funeral, commemorating one of his greatest achievements.
I have as much interest in Jimmy Carter’s funeral as I would in burying a cockroach I stepped on. Put the communist in a landfill as far as I’m concerned.
There will be a gathering afterwards serving peanuts and Billy Beer.
So three days rotting in Atlanta, and then two days at the Capitol. Five days ... OK.
Reagan only had 1.5 days in DC and 1.5 days at the Library, IIRC.
But who’s counting? It makes sense, of course, as Jimmuh was more dearly beloved than Reagan. 🙄
Allan Lichtman was on Newsmax (maybe Fox) a day or two ago, gushing over how Carter was the best President, and what a wonderful legacy he’ll leave.
He’s a Dead Jim and is still dead.
The Democrats turned it into an election rally for Vice President Walter Mondale who was campaigning for President against Ronald Reagan.
Jessie Ventura was the governor at the time. He and his wife got up and walked out.
Be interesting to see if the Democrats morph Jimmy Carter's memorial service into a Trump/MAGA bashing extravaganza.

Carter can enter the Hereafter with a smile as he is now recognized as only the 3rd worst President after Biden 2nd and Biden’s puppet master Obama 1st.
I think Bidens admin picked J7 so Jimma Carter would have a bigger crowd due to the overflow from Trumps Inauguration on J6.
