He is actually pretty good with a hammer. But that's about it.

He is actually pretty good with a sickle too, both combined.

Not another Dem! They think we're a bunch of suckers. At least the public isn't...not so sure about the current President's administration.

"Is it Zhukov?"

I was told by a Freeper that it's Honecker (from East Germany). But, he was already on the original photo I photoshopped Jimmy into.

I believe the company (Chinese) that controls both ends of the canal is Hutchison-Wampoa, if I spelled that correctly. I also believe that they own a large deep water port in the Bahamas and are either the contractors of or major bidders to build another large port South of California in the Baja Penninsula of Mexico. I don't think we have to worry about nukes from China. They're out to bury us economically. Of course, Clinton gave them all of the wonderful rocket and satelite technology. Just what was he thinking, hmmmmmmm. They also are major purchasers of U.S. debt. Puts us in a rather odd position, doesn't it.

Drop dead Roemer!

Give it back to the 'gators... it was just another DNC, social-experiment gone BAD.

Ditto that.

I can just see Jimmah out their with his tool belt, hammer in hand. Then, when he and his right-hearted crew was done.... Jimmah would give the entire town back to the French much like a certain canal.

Carter can run his own organizations independently. Why is every thing that happens an excuse to grow federal power?

Thank goodness I swallowed my coffee before clicking on FR just now, or I'd have a very brown monitor at this moment!

Sounds like the erstwhile former-Congresscritter wants to show us that there are people FAR more incompetent than Mayor "Where're my Greyhounds?" and Governor "I'm in charge here, dammit!" Isn't it bad enough we have to look at the former Commander-in-Grief begging once again for money?

And the Iran hostage crisis.

And double digit inflation.

This proposal should be taken seriously. Jimmy Carter has 30 years of experience working with Habitat Humanity a worldwide organization responsible for building 175,000 homes. Jimmy has a tremendous amount of hands on experience, 1 week per year x 30 years.

Carter expects President Bush will be calling and is actively working on blueprints for easy to built, low rent housing in the new New Orleans. Habitat Humanity released Jimmy Carter's first sketch of what he envisions will be beautiful, functional and practical accommodations for evacuees who opt to return to the new New Orleans

I'll bet that killer rabbit is still lurking in the swamps of New Orleans.
