My pop-quiz IQ is dangerously low. Who is Billy Carter?
Lucky you, you're younger than me!
Billy Carter was the notorious and comical fun-loving brother of President Jimmy Carter (1976-1980). There were a few interesting episodes, a diplomatic trip to Libya and an incident of public urination. Then, great American free enterprise - Billy Beer. Can collectors will remember. Hey, it was the 1970s. Half the country was baked then.
From Wikipedia: "In 1977, he endorsed Billy Beer capitalizing upon his colorful image as a beer-drinking Southern boy that had developed in the press when his brother ran for President. Carter's name was occasionally used as a gag answer for a Washington, D.C., trouble-maker on 1970s episodes of The Match Game. Carter was known for his outlandish public behavior. For example, he once urinated on an airport runway in full view of the press and dignitaries."
Actor Gary Busey played the role on Saturday Night Live, beer can in hand. Think Bill Clinton without the Yale and Georgetown degrees.
Whew! LOL!....with that philosophy there is no guarantee of passing the bar! Add him to the membership of the ignorati.
Thank you! Now I know the rest of the story...
VDH has got these liberal goofballs totally figured out.
I think Obama thinks that we should dig his cool choices. His scooping up Jones makes him proud as a television network producer is proud to scoop up some raw talent. And that's what they have in common: an appeal to pure entertainment. Coffee house revolutionaries will love the over-the-top antics, the risque language, the whole shtick. They will drink their coffee and lattes in safety and laugh. A sign in the house of revolution should say: Get your unmolested, free range, enviro-green coffee beans here with every new book about the evils of Capitalism and Bush. Do the right thing America. Be cool.
"I think Obama thinks that we should dig his cool choices."
Bingo. Where would he be without his hipster Starbucks coffee house supporters?
...”In short, I think Obama has become Geraldo at month nine of his four-year term.”...
That should leave a mark...
So much for Howard Deans comment that Jones is brilliant and a grad from Yale Law School....I understand Yale Law School does not give grades to their students.
So much for brilliant.”
A. Yale, Harvard, and all the other well-known schools need to review their admission policies. They are not educating persons who will be an improvement to the USA and it’s future. They are giving legitimacy in title to radicals whose only aim in the future is to destroy the country that gave them the opportunities with lots of taxpayer money, all the way from kindergarten on up.
B. ‘Brilliant’ “ A STAR”... comments by Howard Dean which leave me to wonder just exactly what kind of education Dean himself ever had. The world is upside down inside Dean’s head, IMO. I got my grade school education in a one room school-14 kids-8 grades-one teacher and none of the verbal skills I learned there include these kinds of definition applications such as Dean is using.
C. I am wondering even more about the sanity of Howard Dean in general. He had his own screaming tirade some months ago, and altho the delivery now is less intrusive, the content is more suspect. I am doubting that Dean could survive a serious 72 hour psychological exam which is routinely given to other whackos. This man is seriously deranged, and the country needs to ask themselves WHY he continued to control the Democrat party for so long a time.
D. Those of you who voted for NObama and other Dems need to look into the mirror and ask yourselves if you would do it all over again. While you are at that task, ask yourself why you didn’t stop ACORN from committing all that voter fraud in the name of the party you seem to love so dearly and follow so blindly?
It is time- in fact, well past time, for rank and file Democrats in this country to ask themselves if this is the country that they want which has been handed to them by NObama and his minions and czars.
They need to ask themselves if they have allwed their votes to put into place a coup against the USA as a whole.
