He is an [BLEEP]!  Totally disrespectful, not even close to appropriate.

Meh. 

Jimmy Carter's character was beyond reproach and everyone knew it. Even his political opponents. 

Joe Biden is weak and venal.

I was at a New Year's Eve party last night, there were about a dozen people there, and we were all drinking fake Champagne, and someone raised their glass and said "To Jimmy Carter."  And we all stood up, raised our glasses, and said, "To Jimmy Carter."  It was a nice moment.

Yes, when Biden's time comes, they will make him out to have been a good human.

I read lots of Michael Shermer articles when I subscribed to Scientific American and it's good to see him speak. I canceled my subscription to SA over 10 years ago when I saw the leftist bull [BLEEP] starting to creep into the pages then. I can't imagine how bad it has gotten since, but this video provides some insight into how the "trust the science" crowd are hypocritically altering facts and subverting scientific journals to suit their perverted worldview.

I agree.  I thought this was a better tribute and memorial of Carter:

Quote:In an era of strongman politics, when the presidency has become the focal point of all too much passion, there's a lot to be said for James Earl Carter's comparatively modest conception of the office. At home, our 39th president left a legacy of workaday reforms, paving the way for the "Reagan boom" by taming inflation and serially deregulating air travel, trucking, railroads, and energy. Abroad, he favored diplomacy over war, garnering the least bloody record of any post–World War II president. So what if he didn't look tough, or even particularly competent, as he did it?

Carter thought America needed to be humbled and he enacted foreign policy to ensure it happened. After he got his [BLEEP] kicked by Reagan he spent the rest of his life trying to bring us down. Good riddance.

I don't think building houses for the homeless, helping conduct peace negotiations, monitoring elections in 3rd world countries, and furthering the eradication of infectious diseases constitutes "bringing us down."

If you see the world as zero-sum, anything that helps someone else, by definition, hurts you.

Apparently, more FBI workers are thinking about quitting if the Senate decides to confirm Kash Patel as the new FBI Director

I say GOOD! The way the Biden administration has weaponized the FBI, maybe a self flush of some agents is whats needed to get the FBI back on track..........

A few nails occasionally can't make up for the damage he's done with his near-patgological hatred of Israel and it's impact on US foreign policy. Iran today is entirely his fault, every bit of it. All because he hated the Jewish nation.

If you don't see Iran as an enemy entirely enabled by the Democrats, starting with Jimmuh, then your simply ignorant or naive. In your case I'd say both.

Schumer says Dems must ‘look in the mirror’ after losing White House, Senate: ‘We did some things wrong’
Schumer says Dems must focus on working families in America

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., on Sunday conceded that Democrats should regard the 2024 election as a loss and reflect on what went wrong for the party after losing both the White House and Senate and failing to flip the House of Representatives.

Schumer appeared on NBC’s "Meet the Press," where he was asked about Democratic strategist James Carville’s assertion that the reason Democrats lost was because of "the economy, stupid."

"I told my caucus, and I’ll say it here, too… certainly it was a loss, but it’s also a challenge," Schumer said of the election.

What could Carter have done to prevent the Iranian revolution from taking the course it did? 
Aren't the main actors in the Iranian revolution all Iranians? Why do you blame America first?
