He kept the Erie canal.
And kept us out of war ...with our allies...barely.

I hear that unopened cans of Billy Beer are selling for $10,000 apiece on eBay, with original 6-packs in the plastic ring holder going for $100,000!
To: Steelfish
No. Billy was a joke and embarrasment.

The Congressional Budget Office estimates it will cost $17 million to upgrade and maintain the sites over the next five years. That was enough to elicit an objection from Steve Ellis, vice president of the Washington-based Taxpayers for Common Sense.
Ellis said his concern has nothing to do with Billy Carter's place in history. It's a question of priorities, he said. The Park Service already faces a $9-billion maintenance backlog for the property it currently manages, according to the Congressional Research Service.
Nucking futs.

I have an opened can of Billy beer. The top is still on it and someone drained the beer out the bottom. It’s up in the attic somewhere. Probably worth $2.50.

Jimmy is a bigger joke and embarrasment, Billy was almost human!

Might be a good investment. After another 3 years of Obama, people are going to look back on Carter with nostalgia.

Billy in his most drunken stupor would have made a better President than Jimmy.
To: Steelfish
In a similar fashion, Zero can have his community organizer office at Acorn become a national monument.

Might be a good investment. After another 3 years of Obama, people are going to look back on Carter with nostalgia.Barry makes Carter look competent and Clinton look honest. Now that's change we can believe in.

I know! I drank mine about 5 years ago!

Well, I wish they had posted a complete picture of the station myself, particularly if it was an old one, at least that would be ONE thing that I would like about him...

The old gas station was where Billy hid out from the rest of them. I really suspect that they had him poisoned!

You heard that where?
To: 2harddrive
I do have an unopened can of Coors with the two push buttons on the top, pushing one in lets you drink and pushing the smaller one in breaks the vacuum so that it will flow better, like on a gas can.

Gotta have a pic!
This landmark in Plains, Ga., is part of the hallmark of a homespun presidency
