I do not wish ill on the man, nor do I call for his death. He was immensely damaging to the United States and by allowing Iran's revolution to proceed, sowed the seeds for our present conflict. Suffice it to say, he remains a bumbler and incompetent. However, one does not wish death on the woefully inept. One wishes obscurity and for their names to fade into the mists of time.

Regards, Ivan

He's the best house builder we ever had in the White House.

There is a silver lining to this Communist dupe's disgraceful antics. His obvious anti-american leanings are opening the eyes of a lot of otherwise oblivious citizens to what the Democrat party has become.

During this dark period,so many more of us were just getting screwed.

Another in a long line of "worst" Presidents. I wish he would just shut his trap and live out his life under the radar in retirement.

Carter's legacies??

Killer Rabbits, 20% interest rates, tin horn dicatators holding America hostage, and an interview with Playboy ("I lust in my heart.")

As a Georgian, I am beyond offended. He has disgraced his role as ex-President.

As a former Georgian, I too am beyond offended. However, I would add that he has not only disgraced his role as ex-President, but he also has disgraced his role while he was President and while he was Govenor of Georgia. I vividly recall being amazed when he won the DemocRat nomination on the first vote. In the end, they will probably create a monument to him at taxpayer expense......

Carter's 'great' legacy....

The Iranian hostages, Middle Eastern 'peace', gas lines, and Desert One.

I was a senior in high school when he was govenor. One Easter we went to Stone Mountain for the sunrise service. We walked up the mountain and as we got to the top, he was getting off the lift.

He was a nice looking man with a warm smile--compare that to to his face today. Today I see the face of a bitter, angry old man. Seriously.

Failing to be re-elected must be the driving force in his life. At 81, he is the soreloserman of the Watergate/Viet Nam era. IMHO, he does not believe he lost the election based on the vote of an informed electorate. Dems never lose on merits, they lose because the election is stolen or the electorate is stupid.

I read an article recently where he actually took credit for the Reagan boom. His policies, not Reaganomics, were responsible for the upswing in the economy. Those high interest rates (17-21% motgage) were responsible for the boom in home ownership. I think the man is senile. He turned on Miller when Miller supported Bush.

When he came into office, gas was 50 cents a gallon at the Tenaco on 285 at North Peachtree. A gas war driving the price down to 25 cents per gallon was common.

Not long after the lines were long and gas was up to 1.00/gallon. Considering when I moved back to GA in 1998 gas was 88-1.00 gallon here, back then 1.00 gallon was alot of money.

I do not even claim him as a Georgian. I pass the exit for the Carter Center all of the time. I have never considered visiting it, not even when the Constitution (or was it the Declaration of Independence) was touring the nation.

Okay, let's say something nice about Jimmy -

"Although to the best of my knowledge he didn't cause it, Carter presided over the death of disco."

just realized that late Chief Justice William Hubbs Rehnquist (October 1, 1924 – September 3, 2005), was born the same day as Carter.

So much for astrology.

Some people's opinion of themselves is just arresting.
Sometimes the best way to show respect for the office is dead silence.

I will cut you some slack since you are a newby.
Please stop posting this crap!

I said please. This time.
