I heard this yesterday and cracked up! Jimmy Carter, in my humble opinion, DOES hold "worst president of the 20th century" title. Terrible interest rates, very high income taxes, AND he gave away the Panama Canal. I can STILL remember my bosses talking about his wife, Roslyn's eyes..."That woman has the coldest, blackest, hardest eyes I've ever seen." They were a pair!! I was there...saw it all.

Forget about the Panama Canal. That was, excuse the pun, peanuts. Jimmy not only lost Iran to the Islamofascists, let Lebanon decay into anarchy, and forged the treaty between Egypt and Israel that got Anwar Sadat killed and pushed Egypt further toward Islamofascim but he also did nothing to stop the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan (unless you count boycotting the Olympics "doing something") and nothing to stop Iran and Iraq from going to war. He also did nothing to check OPEC's leverage over the US economy. So all the Islamofascist hot-spots are Jimmy's fault. Iran? Check. Afghanistan? Check. Lebanon and Syria? Check. Reliance on Saudi Arabian oil? Check. Iraq? Check. All of our problems can be traced back to the Worst President of the 20th Century. (I'm of course ignoring losing Nicaragua to the Sandanistas, ignoring the Khmer Rouge, and a host of other international disasters that Jimmy slept through because, well, a solar pa

My vote for the most lovable, sweetest first lady ever, hands down, Barbara Bush. I met her and her husband in 1991. I wish she was my grandma!!!!!!
