Yep, only the photo's funny, though. Carter himself is pathetic!

Carter to visit Cuba; he'll be 1st ex-president there since '59*** ''As you probably would remember, when I was president, I departed from my predecessors and unfortunately my successors, in lifting all travel restraints on American citizens to go to Cuba almost immediately when I was president within a few weeks,'' Carter said. ``And I also established interests sections, which is one step short of full diplomatic relationships between Havana and Washington. And those interest sections with staffs representing our countries have never been closed.***

Old Foes United in Their Grief: Presidents Carter and Castro Both Felt Close to our Late Prime Minister *** Each had their special relationship with Trudeau. While president in 1977-81, Carter sought advice on world affairs from the more senior statesman. "I think, more than any other person I know, Pierre Trudeau has been a symbol of unity, of human rights, of democracy and freedom around the world and was a great leader, even to help American presidents," Carter said. Castro's relationship with Trudeau was sealed during the PM's historic visit to Cuba in 1976. The trip opened a new era of friendship that continues today. The Cuban leader's affection is so strong that, before leaving Havana for the funeral, he declared a three-day period of mourning and had the flags of his nation lowered to half-staff.***

His mom used to cork off a statement or two that outed them for the white trash they were. Billy Beer streaming out on that bush in front of the press was they seminole moment in Carter's presidency. But for fate, there was Jimma. The guy was totally out of his rhelm as President. His wife was the consumate embarassment as far as protocal went.

Yes, it was a disasterous time. Remember that blue sweater speech? "My fellow citizens, America's day is over, we will never again see the greatness of years past." Whew, that's about all I needed to know about that butthead.

I should have complimented you and bring up those items that most people forget. Carter had this policy that said, if a world leader isn't good to his people, we should break off support. So he went about cutting off support of a number of world leaders that had been our allies. Naturally this didn't apply to Communist leaders. He was a strong supporter of Noriega and the Sandanistas.

Some of our leaders couldn't door more damage if they worked for the enemy. Carter and Clinton are two such individuals.

Apparently, the Opecker Princes have paying Jimmy Boy, the man who feared rabbits while fishing, a lot of money for decades not to be quite.

Notice the Rats are never quite when they leave the White House.

Carterpalooza.....hahahahahahahaha, that's hillarious, and scary.

[Southack]

What?! No mention of the $250,000 "payment" that Libya was caught sending to President Carter's brother Billy in 1979?

Oh yes, now I remember. We had a "hostage crisis" by Carter's friends in Iran just as the story of Billy's treachery made it into print.

How... convenient.

Gee, President Carter gave the green light to Khomeni overthrowing the Shah of Iran, and a convenient scandal in Iran occurred on Khomeni's watch just as President Carter was getting into hot water over his ca$h connection to Middle-Eastern terrorist Mohimar Khadafy.

Funny how that works.

And now Carter is bashing President Kennedy's embargo of Cuba, and indeed traveling to Cuba to have dinner with the most notorious anti-Semitic terrorist in the entire Angolan war, Fidel Castro.

What lovely friends Carter has.

NOT!

[RJayneJ]

What the heck is an Opecker?

Carter has been a national disgrace since he first stumbled on the political scene. It was Carter that I hoped the American public would remember when another unknown boob steped forth from the shaddows. Much to America's misfortune, they didn't. Imagine how much better off this nation would have been had Bill and Hillary never disgraced our federal government by their presence.

Clinton overshadowed the disgrace of the Carter. Didn't minimize it --- it was huge, and it is ongoing --- but Clinton was so bad that it was easy to forget how bad Carter was/is.

Here's a photo from Carter's website:

For some reason this isn't what I picture when I think of Jimmy and jogging.

[Vigilantcitizen]

I'll never forget the day I realized that carter was a traitorous baffoon and that I would probably be Republican/Conservative in my poltical views.

I was sitting in 8th grade shop class and President Reagan had just been sworn in. The school's PA announced that the hostages had just been released, and our class erupted into chaotic celebration.

As a Native Georgian, I am deeply ashamed of what carter did to our Nation.

[Utah Girl]

BTTT, to remember what Jimmah did to our nation, both as president and as ex-president. I still can't believe he won the Nobel Peace Prize.
