Ok. That is what I thought.
Do you have a source for this statement because, quite frankly I never heard this before...
Jimmy was bumbling, incompetent President but I don't think he was a crook...
I was a young adult when Carter was in office and this was really the first time I began to pay attention to politics and to realize that I was conservative. Carter surrounded himself with all these crooks he brought from Ga. with him. Many of them were caught with their hand in the cookie jar (major $ scandals that taxpayers picked up the tab to fix) and even though there was ONLY the MSM back then, I started to get suspicious about this smug, arrogant, pious, and oh, so religious guy that didn't seem to know anybody but thieves.
Exactly the same thing as when Clinton and the Arkansas Mafia arrived in D.C. The difference was the MSM had to contend with the Rush Limbaugh and the growth of a conservative media who exposed the truth about the Clintons as fast as the MSM tried to bury it.
The MSM is responsible for portraying Carter as an incompetent in order to keep the public from knowing what the crooked, anti-American, Commie was really up to.
