When those two got a Nobel Peace Prize, I knew that it was totally worthless. I cannot think of any two people that have done less for Peace. Jimmah would not have had a hostage situation color his entire Administration if he had not screwed over the Shah because they did not succumb to his extortion attempts. I would wager that the entire Middle East had been worse off because of his stupidity, and God awful judgment.
The morale in the country was so low that the entire country got patriotic because we won the Gold Medal in Olympic Hockey; it was the only good thing America saw in those long 4 years.
