I was alive during carter- let’s see there was ‘national malaise’, gas lines, 18% mortgage interest rates, hostages in Iran, dead american soldiers in he failed ‘rescue’ attempt, Billy Beer, and what am I missing?

Disco!

I remember something under Carter, I think called the misery index? It was a huge number for Carter, around 20 I think. I believe it was unemployment added to inflation.

Did not vote for Jimi but would take him over Obama right now.

Everyone was 'instructed' to turn down their heat and wear a sweater in the house.

You’re missing sitting in the dark with your coats on, so you won’t freeze, after you had turned the thermostat down, to save energy!!

dead american soldiers in he failed ‘rescue’ attempt

Pardon me, but I believe President Jimmy called that "an incomplete success," not a "failed rescue."

However, I agree with Levin. Oboozer is worse.

Signs on the back end of Greyhound busses reading

"Thanks for taking the bus and saving energy"

Those hateful beepers that beep at about 130 db so you won't miss the massive diesel front-end loader that's backing up and emitting 125 db.

Herpes becomes a household word.

There was a sentiment foster greatly by the press, that the Presidency had grown beyond the ability of one man. We needed TWO presidents. One domestic, and one for foreign affairs.

No such talk again, once the Peanut was out. And yet libs think he was great, kind, good, and competent. I talk to them to this day, and they will NOT admit to what he was.

Double-digit inflation caused by Carter, had the American people seething in anger. It seemed like milk and bread was going up in price every week, outdistancing the meager pay me and my wife received. Carter had a “let them eat cake” attitude and didn’t care.
