When the mission to rescue our hostages in Tehran failed, he took full responsibility for its failure. Can you name any Democrat President since that has taken responsibility for failure?

Carter never met a communist he didn’t like or remember fondly like Fidel.

“When the mission to rescue our hostages in Tehran failed, he took full responsibility for its failure.”

What else could he do? It was a fiasco from the day it was first concocted, Have you ever read about the logistics of that raid? They were going to take the hostages out BY BUS!!!! It was an insane plan from the very start. It was overly dependent on chance and circumstance, and any military tactician worth his salt will say that is a no-no.

“They do not let dummies become first officers on NUCLEAR SUBMARINES.”

Oh, for God’s sake. Being a submarine officer doesn’t automatically qualify one for the presidency. It is not a sine qua non.

Carter is 97 years old, and has had serious medical issues. No snub, just health concerns.
