I will never forget Carter's treatment of the Shah of Iran. Here's a long time ally of the United States, and Carter denied him entry into the United States for chemotherapy.

That smiley toothed jackass with his goin' to Sunday-School smarm, would have his ass kicked out of any Church I'd want to be associated with, for that act.

I have a family friend who also happens to be a longtime US Democratic Congressman. We verbally spar often, and he, of course, never gives an inch. So it was suprising when I said to him once that the reason fundamentalist islam is such a problem now is because Carter didn't support the Shah. I told him the Savak was actually killing and arresting the very same people we are killing and arresting now.

He said, "You know what Tom? You are right."

That is quite an admission coming from a sitting Dem member of Congress.

Mark Levin had a contest for the most annoying liberal person or organization out there. I think the ACLU won, but nobody voted for Carter. That jackass lost the Shah and the Middle East has been in flames and blood ever since.

However, Jackass Jimmy wasn't content with wrecking the economy and the Middle East during his Presidency; he had to do more damage in North Korea and then have the loathsome Michael Moore sit next to him at the Convention this year. The man's a walking disaster area and the opposite of Midas -- everything he touches turns to s***.

His treatment of the Shah also included him having his "business' partners visit the Shah and demand they overcharge work on a waterfront. These overcharges (paid for by the U.S.0 were to be given to the "businessmen' for doing nothing. When they were told NO, that was Carter's beginning to end the regime of the Shah.
