Former President Jimmy Carter Passes Away at age 100
AJC ^ | 12/29/24 | staff

Posted on 12/29/2024 1:06:25 PM PST by CFW

Former President Jimmy Carter, a man who redefined what a post-presidency could be, died Sunday. He was 100.

Carter, who lived longer than any other U.S. president, entered home hospice care in Plains, Georgia in February 2023 after a series of short hospital stays.

The only Georgian ever elected to the White House, Carter left office after a single term that was highlighted by forging peace between Israel and Egypt, but was overshadowed by the Iran hostage crisis. In the decades after, his reputation grew through his and wife Rosalynn Carter’s work at the Carter Center in Atlanta and his philanthropic causes such as Habitat for Humanity.

Rest in peace, President Carter. I’m glad you lived long enough to see that like yourself and George Bush, Biden also only got 1 term.

Too bad. I wanted him to live long enough to see Trump get the Panama Canal back.

Glad he made it past the election so the Democrats couldn’t turn his funeral into an immense Vote Kamala pep rally slash Trump hate festival.

We were always taught if you couldn’t say anything good about someone when they die, then don’t say anything. I have nothing to say about the passing of Mr. Carter.

Ah well - terrible president, but he served his nation in the military and helped build houses for people. A well-meaning man who should never have become president.

....it is wrong to speak ill of the dead, but before Barack Odumbo became President, Mr. Carter was considered by many to have been one of the worst presidents this country ever had....now that Honor [sic] goes to the dementia-addled current office of the White House....Carter used to claim that he was a “nuclear engineer” which was not true...nonetheless, RIP Mr. Carter...

He lived long enough to experience an administration more incompetent than his own.

Democrats love politics at the funeral. I'm surprised they didn't kill Carter themselves just to get the opportunity pontificate on communism inside a church.
