Oh yeah...


Consumer confidence is up, as are fuel prices. Krauthammer has a wonderful article in plain English.

Read it!

Also, Scoot has some interesting thoughts on the present unhappiness with the administration. I concur that a lot of the concern are well placed (immigration, etc.), but worst president ever?

Sorry. Carter still leads GWB.

What good did Carter do in the Mideast? Camp David? And the healing from Watergate? I contend we still haven't healed, considering how many Nixon is Bush comparisons are made.

Sorry, spend a little time in the presidential library and you will realize just how weak and bankrupt Carter was on all counts, including his tenure as governor of Georgia.

BTW, disco still lives, it' just repackaged!

I wonder how the Left will heal itself when their focus of hatred departs. 8 years it will be of - we hate Bush, Bush is teh suxor, and Bush is Hitler, blah blah, blah. Ye Gods, what a mentally bankrupt period of time - right when we need a decent and idea producing opposition party...

Carter politicized and boycotted the Olympics.

He had no clue or desire to prevent communisms spread across Latin America, something we are still paying for today (Hello Hugo C).

Horrible economic policy, though I cut him a bit of slack cause he inherited the conditions that caused "stagflation".

There are no gas lines currently circa 1978.

But the biggest, most insidious crime of Carter's ineptness ---

The price of candy bars almost tripled during his tenure!!!

OK. I was young. But I never forgave him for that. You see Scoot, I very well understand kitchen-table issues!!! :-)

Looks like there are some hot new posts at Unrelated Rejoinders. I guess Citizen Deux has been left in the dust again.
