Facts. A documented plan. NOT nice sounding retoric and slogans. FACTS
So STILL waiting.
I don't know too much about his distinctions politically, however Jimmy Carter rates as the worst President of the 20th century IMO.
To me, my opinion counts.
Forgot one thing.. We need to turn back the clock!!!!!!!!!

Good grief, grow up!
Is “Lee” Sheila Jackass Lee?
You are the patient one MNJonnie!
Or perhaps way too focused or one with too much time on hand.
The later, I think not. ; )
He is a nut job! National Review had a pretty devastating article about him a month ago.
But Jimmy was honest. He was so uncorrupted by politics. He was a saintly man, just like Ron Paul. I'm sure Jimmy Carter would have voted exactly like Ron Paul did on this referendum.
Jimmy Carter and Ron Paul are like two peas in a Pod.
With respect, the attacks were not initiated by bcsco.
You both have a one hour suspension too cool off. If you continue this, the next suspension will be longer.
Sheesh...Ron Paul should be running for the independant party or for the Democrats it seems.
I would take that statement as a compliment.
Oh, to be young again... : )
Too much talk could lead to popping a vein for him IMO.
Why, yes you are. Isn’t that special.
Heh. Buh-bye, now.
ROFL!
Funny how that changed just before the first bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993. That's when Saddam found himself totally isolated after the Gulf War and started seeing the Islamists not as a threat, but as potential allies. That's when he started building mosques (including the "Mother of All Battles" mosque), that's when he built Islamic universities and made attendance mandatory for Ba'ath party officials. That's when he added the words "Allah Akbar", written in his own hand, to the Iraq flag. That's when he started providing safe harbor to terrorists convicted of attacking the United States, like Abdul Rahman Yasin (just another "isolated" instance, I guess). That's when he opened the gates of Salman Pak to the jihadists.
Of course, you can have isolated instances where Saddam helped individual radical Muslims
Abu Musab al Zarqawi was not an isolated anything. He was a key leader of a terror network that had declared war on the United States. Saddam took him in, gave him critical medical attention and allowed him to establish 10 al Qaeda cells across the country in the aftermath of the attacks of September 11, 2001.
it was not his general policy as they were a threat to him and his government.
Guess who else was a threat to him and his government? America.
Now, who do you think Saddam saw as the bigger threat?
A) Al Qaeda, the terrorist network that never laid a finger on him or his regime in any way, shape or form; or,
B) The Americans, who obliterated his Republican Guard, sent him to his room like a beaten child and would ultimately topple his government, kill his sons and turn him over to a bloodthirsty mob of angry Shi'ites.
Think hard.
You forgot Forest Gump as a pea.
