About the only thing I liked about Jimmy Carter was Amy’s Siamese cat named Misty Malarkey Ying Yang. Loved the name, loved the cross-eyed cat.
The fake news media went BERSERK when W didn’t bring his adopted feral cat Ernie to the White House. W gave Ernie to a cat-loving friend because Ernie loved to sharpen his claws on EVERYTHING and W and Laura were concerned he would damage furniture in the White House.
