Compare that one-liner on Kahtah with that of his successor:

Ronald Reagan (****). Stunning economic success: taxes cut by 25 percent across the board; top marginal tax rate slashed from 70 to 50 percent, while Fed tight-money approach stifled inflation. Joblessness grew at first, then 5 million new businesses and 20 million new jobs were created, unleashing prosperity. He ignored deficits to grant defense buildup by more than 50 percent. His SDI wins the Cold War in estimate of Alexander Bessmertnykh, former USSR foreign minister; bold strategy leading to overthrow of USSR.

Did you know that Jimmy Carter and Amy Carter wrote a kid's book?

I found this..description of the book on line: "The Little Baby Snoogle-Fleejer. Jimmy Carter, Illustrated by Amy Carter.
Yes, those Carters. And it's just the sort of story you'd expect--sweet, didactic, and painfully earnest. It's the story of a crippled boy who makes friends with the sea monster everyone else fears. I confess I bought this book because I thought the idea of a children's book by the former leader of the free world was a funny idea, and it's really not a great book, but it makes for great Role Drama. " http://www.geocities.com/Broadway/Alley/3765/picturebooklist.html

NOTICE HOW THE ..PERSON SAID..."IT'S REALLY NOT A GREAT BOOK"

Former President Jimmy Carter called the American invasion of Iraq one of the country’s worst foreign policy blunders

Well, you have to admit that it would be hard to find a greater expert on foreign policy blunders than Jimmy Carter.

LOL! I don't even want to think about it.

"Carter predicted American soldiers will be in Iraq for many years.

“I’ve got one grandson (his youngest) who is 4½ years old. I hope that before he’s out of high school, we’ll be out of Iraq."

Jimmy Carter. Still a World-Class Pessimist.

"“I was strongly against going in unilaterally,” ...

comment: I guess Britain and Australia don't count.

You'd think a former naval officer would have heard of Great Britain and Australia. Memo: to Jimmy: " just a little north of France, there is a sizable island. Can you name it?"

To lose a country is one thing, but an entire continent?

This from the wimp who gave the ChiComs our canal, Iran a chance to become the center for terror for the last 20 years and the nation of Angola to become a communist bloodbath. What a pos he is.

"I thought it interesting that recently he and Rozalind thought it important that they leave the Baptist Church due to the Church's narrow-minded views on abortion."

IIRTNN--(Plains, GA): Today former President Jimmy Carter and his wife Roslyn announced they were leaving the Baptist church over the church's strident insistence on compassion and dignity for children in the womb.

The ex-First Couple will seek a congregation with greater tolerance for brutality.

IIRTNN---- "If I Ran The News Network," your alternative to biased crap.

Jimmah and Bubba would do well to uphold the protocol of former presidents to not comment on the policies and decisions of the current president. Of course, neither of them has any class, so they will continue to take potshots at any current Republican presidents.

Where were Jimmah's criticisms of Bubba's foreign policy blunders? Oh, that's right...

God, I am soooo sick of this traitor! He let the genie out of the bottle back in the '70's... and he has the cheek to call this the worst foreign policy blunder in years!
