Is Biden the first former president to still “live” in the White House?

Carter received the Nobel Peace Prize for helping terrorists in the middle east pretend they made peace with Israel.

Trump brought the historic Abraham Accords, no member nations of which are currently fighting Israel. In fact they recently helped Israel with Iran launched a bunch of missiles at Israel. But Trump won't be awarded the bogus "peace" prize.

Compared to Biden, Jimmy is George Washington.

No. As much as I hated Carter, he did help make peace between Egypt and Israel, a peace that has lasted.

I’m glad he lived to see Israel kicking jihadi ass in a big way.

"Jimmy Carter becomes first former president to celebrate 100th birthday"

Seems like Joe Biden has been acting like a former president who turned 100 for at least the last four years - maybe Joe deserves some kind of honorary recognition...

One of the few accomplishments of the Carter administration.

Happy B’day Jimmah. But let’s not forget the scientists and researchers who made it possible. Jimmah’s cancer had spread throughout his body and he was months from dying when a miraculous immunotherapy drug wiped out his cancer. And now he’s made it to 100.

Tell that to the IDF who recently found 50 tunnels running from Egypt into Gaza. Tell that to the Israeli diplomats who've heard the Egyptians demand for decades that Israel adopt a "two-state solution".

The terms of that agreement so called was made between Anwar Sadat of Egypt and Israel. Sadat was afterward murdered by the Muslim Brotherhood-the same organization which backed, along with George Soros and William Ayers (of the Weather Underground Marxists in the US) the Kenyan usurper Obam-mau-mau-mao his “daddy” was a member of KANU and supported Jomo Kenyatta-the leader of the KANU party in Kenya who masterminded the Mau Mau murderous terrorist uprising. Kenyatta got his Communist education at Moscow’s Communist University of the Toilers of the East . That Jomo Kenyatta. And that Obamau-mao that is still embedding muslims in our government and being a puppeteer proxy “present-dent”. More disgusting than Carter. But Carter was the one Joey Bags Xiden went to first to pick up the BS to continue for Carter, and puppet of Obamaumao.

The agreement did not last and only peace exists because of al-Sisi and scared to death Egyptian military- only recently inspired by Qatar the paymaster of Iran to Hamas, Hezbollah and all their other proxies- soon to be slaughtered.

#4: "Compared to Biden, Jimmy is George Washington."

Yes. Jimmy spent his retirement building homes for those in need. He taught Sunday school every week. Before becoming president, Jimmy was a nuclear engineer, serving his country in the Navy aboard a boomer. He was a real farmer with all the trials that come with that.

He has a decent daughter, who despite some growing pains, turned into decent woman and wife. Jimmy's wife Rosalynn was a charming, dignified Godly woman.

Take a look at Biden and Mrs. Biden lolling on the beach, and then compare that to President Carter. Does anyone think Joey or Jilly could quote even a half line of scripture or hammer one nail to help someone?

Jimmy made mistakes in his life. He is human. Lord knowns, I've made plenty. Thank God they weren't covered by the news media, and broadcast for the world to see.

A statement saying Carter is “a beacon of leadership and compassion, inspiring people around the globe” is not a true measure of the man. Annually I send this letter to about 40 papers and commentators to give balance to his accolades.

Jimmy Carter: Egypt and Israel Peace Treaty

We will recognize March 26 as the anniversary of peace between Egypt and Israel for which Anwar el-Sadat and Menachem Begin won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1978. Concurrently we will applaud Jimmy Carter's 2002 Nobel Peace Prize for decades of untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts such as that.

Nevertheless, we should remember the truly worthy recipient of the three was Anwar Sadat. Through three wars Arab leaders had used Egyptian blood and treasure for vicarious satisfaction of their Jewish hatred which had invigorated their despotic regimes. By conclusion of the 1973 war, Sadat was certain Egypt's price for Arab victory would not only include countless military deaths, but also destruction of the Aswan Dam leading to 100,000's of Egyptian flood victims and catastrophic infrastructure damage.

Sadat brought an end to this waring cycle and looming national catastrophe with his historic trip to Jerusalem on November 7, 1977, and thereby began a process he formalized by signing the Camp David Accords the following September, and the peace treaty of 1979. For his extraordinary statesmanship, the Arab League suspended Egyptian membership. Two years later Sadat was assassinated by an amalgam of Islamic radicals including Ayman al-Zawahiri who came from the Muslim Brotherhood and became a leader of al-Qaeda.

In comparison, Begin risked nothing politically, and Carter just served milk and cookies.

He's managed to hang around like a bad smell that just won't go away... And it just gets smellier every day like rotten peanut.

I am sure that Carter’s life is as dear to him as is mine to me. That said, I begrudge him every second of his miserable existance as he has wasted every moment with incompetence, and destructive acts. His life is a lie as is all leftists/Democrats.

***Carter’s age gives meaning to the song “Only the Good Die Young”!***

Also gives meaning to:

Ephesians 6:1–3
“Honor your father and mother, so that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth”

He was never one of my favorites, but I can still tell him to have a happy birthday.
