Jimmy Carter - The Ugly American

[aimtrue]

Attributed to Lillian Carter:

“If I had known how Jimmy would turn out, I would have stayed a virgin.”

Miss Lillian, It is too bad that moment was lost.

In my opinion, Jimmy Carter is the most inept President in my lifetime. His administration of government lowered the self-esteem of citizens and plunged the country into, what he himself said, was a deep malaise. After leaving office he lost all sense of propriety by attacking the policies of the United States while visiting foreign countries.

Jimmy Carter is an egotist, arrogant and a loose canon. He perpetuates these character failures every time he visits foreign lands. It seems that when he is off U.S. soil, he attempts to supplant U.S. foreign policy with his own brand of diplomacy. He shows by his reprehensible behavior a complete disregard to the role of the executive branch of government to formulate and carry out foreign policy. Nevertheless, Jimmy Carter conducts his own foreign policy with other governments and by doing so, usurps the prerogative and sworn of the President.

Jimmy Carter’s actions give credence and importance to enemies of the United States. If nothing else, the propaganda value of his association with enemies of the United States is immeasurable.

Jimmy Carter’s self-aggrandizement is traitorous. His actions evoke in me the utmost scorn. I wish that there was a way to publicly humiliate him. On second thought, he humiliates himself whenever he climbs from under a rock.

Normally one would hot link to the source borrowed from.

Sorry guys, but as long as he stays gone we don't have to put up with his irritating a$$ here in GA. Maybe they'll seize his passport this time HINT HINT and we can all sleep easy knowing he is someone else's pain in the a$$.

He also killed the U.S.'s nuclear power program (or more accurately, set it back 30 years). His irrational paranoia, and "unilateral disarmament" approach stopped reprocessing, and helped guarantee we'd be reliant on foreign oil (although we could have reversed this certainly after the Gulf War). Reagan had to build up our military after Jimmy gutted it--and regain respect across the world.

The only good thing about the carter presidency is it ensured Ronald Reagan would be elected.

How this person can gain any credibility is beyond my imagination. If he stuck to building houses, and that alone, that would be a start.

I was in the Navy during his reign. We were having double digit inflation and he gave the military 2% pay hikes! I didn't join the military to get rich, but damn!

Jimmy Carter is a fellow traveller with all the other failed presidents
since WW2. Undeserving ecocentric personalities pumped up by
campaign money, a liberal media, and major parties without
plan or policy for the middle class of America which needs
to be enriched, expanded, and given more freedoms.

We have deserved better than we have gotten for the last
sixty years. We definitely deserve better than we will get this fall.

Brother Bob; I was also in the Military Reserves, (Army-and Air Force, after my USMC hitch). Things were so tight, paper and pens were a "we don't have the money for them"...issue. I was also a Unit Armorer, along with my regular MP-AP duties. Getting new equipment and training materials for the youngsters, was a "total-nightmare". Things loosened up quickly for the military ("in my experience"), when President Reagan took over the reigns. I'll surely "second" your above post.

Why is it, when a former democrat Prez is such a loss to humanity, and the US in particular, all the other Prez's have to be just as bad? Reagan was so far above Carter, and another dem Former that I won't name, that he was in a class by himself. But all the dems on the hill can do, is try to color him crazy. He beat the Russians, and got the iron curtain dropped. And the economy was pretty darn good. So what is it about a good Republican Prez that the dems can't stand? The fact that they haven't put a good one in office since FDR? Go for it! I can take a beating, if I need to, but BS don't fly, 'cause it ain't got wings!

[TXplt]

The things the Dems can't stand about a good Republican prez like Reagan is success. This really hurts because you can't argue with it. The Dems can't admit their ideas of control and social engineering are failures. They don't like to see winners. They want their electorate to be mindless pets, in order to enhance their own political power. Hence the social engineering, gun control, and PC BS.

But real leaders, like real instructors, derive tremendous satisfaction in the success of their students, friends, and associates. They smile when these people achieve, even would the methods be different that what they taught. They let go. They help then get out of the way. They don't need "power" (which isn't real anyway--any "power" anyone has comes from far beyond). In short, they don't need to get in the way to "control" the situation and the people. It drives dems crazy when things function well on their own, without their help.

And I humbly apologize to any of the "good" democrats who aren't in favor of gun control, PC BS, state raising children, endless market and environmental regulation, warrantless searches, drug testing in schools, or an entitlement culture -- wherever you may be.

Thanks, txplt, I'm with you and you put it very well!

I was a in grade school when President Carter was elected and I still remember my teachers being wildly entusiastic over him.

Things still didn't change until the Iran hostage situation. The tragic, failed rescue attempt was loudly attributed to Carters gutting of the military. One of my friends father was a Vietnam veteran and hardcore Democrat who swore never again to vote Democrat after Carter pardoned all draft dodgers.

I guess after winning a Nobel Peace Prize (Egypt and Isreal\Camp David Peace Accords) he thought he was untouchable in the press and in history books. Now he only seems to sabatoge any current administrations foriegn policy and court terrorist.

He should have just stuck to building houses.

Marine1, thank you for your comments. I appreciate them as well as those from alaskamonte.

It was not my intention to plagiarize another person’s authorship. If I had known before posting that it was necessary to reference the source of a sentence containing fifteen words attributed to another person, I would have listed the source of my information.

Upon reading the comments of alaskamonte yesterday, I immediately responded acknowledging the source of my quote. It appears that my acknowledgment was not accepted for display by the moderator.

Here is my reference information:

http://www.quotationspage.com/quote/20935.html

Quotation #20935 from Rand Lindsly's Quotations

Quotation by Lillian Carter, mother of Jimmy and Billy

Excepting for the quote, every other word in my post is my own and I stand by them. My purpose was to speak my outrage about the unconscionable and unilateral behavior of Jimmy Carter.

Carter or Glover or Sean Penn or any other LAME BRAIN who goes to any other country to meet with leaders and has NO NEGOITIATING POWERS, does not have the U.S. Govt backing them up are speaking ONLY on their behalf and can NOT make promises of any kind.

I don't know if it is treason, but I am sure it is hugging the line. They go with ZERO AUTHORITY and the U.S. Govt can not really step in because it is a FREE COUNTRY but they should be ARRESTED and INVESTIGATED upon their return because God only knows how much they have ENDANGERED us all by their actions.

These MATTERS are very serious and should NOT be treated lightly.

Yeah, what's with the Hollywood folks? Which one was it that threatened to leave the country if Bush was elected again? Did he leave yet?

Brother Bob,

Been to many of the Self-centered, egotisical pukes. Jesse Jackson was one of the ones that should have been made a Big Example of. That puke face has made so much money off of his whining and B.S. and to even impose the idea that he has hidden powers is pure insanity. He is as worthless as teats on a Bull. they shame us by entertaining the world with their display of IGNORANCE. We are judged by the examples of the pathetic idiots that go with snapping shutters and typing keyboards around them. The world thinks we send these Mental Cases and they judge the rest of us by the these idiots that go on their own accord to undo instead of make better. I would love to welcome them all back with a baseball bat to the gourd and see if any common sense would fall out.

[billy]

[Seabeescotty]
