And despite what you say, Carter was a financial disaster to this country with as much as an 18% interest rate for those trying to become part of the American dream. The creation of the Depts of Energy and certainly Education are arguable at best and as far as the Nobel Peace Prize is concened, to many, including me, it is a joke. Nobel must be revolving in his grave over some who have received it in the last few years. Bob, considering many of your posts, I don't know whether you are looking for a fight, serious, looking for a laugh or just a troll. I will say this. You're posts are always interesting if at sometimes bizarre IMO.

i'm trolling for the sunbelt knuckleheads who hijacked the republican party offering never ending war, religious intrusion into government, fear posing as patriotism, intolerance and racism, and deficit spending rivaled by no one. you wouldn't happen to know anyone out there that signed on to that would you?

I want to talk to you right now about a fundamental threat to American democracy... I do not refer to the outward strength of America, a nation that is at peace tonight everywhere in the world, with unmatched economic power and military might. ...

The threat is nearly invisible in ordinary ways. It is a crisis of confidence. It is a crisis that strikes at the very heart and soul and spirit of our national will. We can see this crisis in the growing doubt about the meaning of our own lives and in the loss of a unity of purpose for our nation.

In a nation that was proud of hard work, strong families, close-knit communities, and our faith in God, too many of us now tend to worship self-indulgence and consumption. Human identity is no longer defined by what one does, but by what one owns. But we've discovered that owning things and consuming things does not satisfy our longing for meaning.

I'm asking you for your good and for your nation's security to take no unnecessary trips, to use carpools or public transportation whenever you can, to park your car one extra day per week, to obey the speed limit, and to set your thermostats to save fuel... I have seen the strength of America in the inexhaustible resources of our people. In the days to come, let us renew that strength in the struggle for an energy-secure nation.: Jimmy Carter's 1979 speech asking America to face up to it's stupidity...do the problems described sound familiar to any of you flag waving repubs out there? how many of you called carter an idiot peanut farmer when he gave that speech? what goes through your brain as you watch the dollars spinning at the gas pump today?

You had me until you said obey the speed limit.

Bob,

....I thought about you today when I was not obeying the speed limit. I, however, did not get caught.

All I can say about this thread is...wow, y'all have been busy!

traderx...has it occurred to you that you can pronounce "nuclear" properly with a southern accent? palin isn't a southerner, but an overacheiving lightweight no more qualified than trainwreck GW is for his position. Taleban is just as correct as Taliban, but tal-uh-bon is more tractor pull bushspeak

I'll tell you what goes through my mind. Carter's an idiot peanut farmer.

Jimmy Carter was probably the worst President in my lifetime. Those 4 years brought our country many problems. Something we better think about now before we elect another inexperienced person for the sake of "change." Here is a link to an editorial from Investors Business daily.

Republicans embrace the politics of distraction.

No, many moderate Repupblicans embrace sthe politics of "common sense". Something I'm not sure you understand.
