Misleading article. Carter has SAID NOTHING, his EO is just one of MANY that PRESIDENTS from FDR on have realized is necessary to defend this nation.
uh oh....Jimmuh just lost his street cred!
Gotcha.
The better term, I would hazard to suggest, would be "Terrorist Surveillance."
It is more descriptive and, really, it is the target in the first place!
Seriously if you have any, please Freepmail me the name of the controlling company, their papers and stock symbols.
The Washington Times is privately-held, and The Wall Street Journal's parent company, Dow Jones and Company, is traded on the NYSE as DJ. They're "only" down about 18% in the past year, easily beating WPO, NYT and TRB. They're about the only 2 conservative newspapers I can think of, and the WSJ is essentially a financial newspaper.
Oh shit, I guess Bush won't get that third term after all...
There was a large spike in the population of parakeets in September.
LOL !
This was done to provide cover for Clinton Admin corruption. Clinton was a very formidable crook.
Carter's "proper thanks" is coming -- in the form of the dispassionate judgement of history. I predict there will be only one other president judged as more despicable.
If you don't know what any of that means, you either did not live here or were too young to remember what life was like under the Carter administration.
That's right. If the killer rabbit had succeeded, the economy might have improved and Reagan might not have been elected. We sure lucked out.
Astronomical rates on bank CDs, however.
For those of us who lived through his presidency with the 22% interest rate, the gas lines with gas only sold on even or odd days depending on your license plate's last number, the unemployment lines winding many times around the block in every city and town, the Iranian hostages, our hollow military with helicopters that could not fly far enough to carry out a secret hostage rescue mission, we regarded him as a totally inept, befuddled fool who had a crooked brother and a bunch of people in his administration who were crooks and screw-ups, but we didn't hold him responsible. Now that we have the files from the old Soviet Union, we have discovered the real reason Jimmy appeared like a bumbling fool was because he was so busy shaking down our allies like the Shah of Iran for big bucks and promising to take him down if he didn't comply, he couldn't be bothered with running the country. He was busy making deals to sell out the country to the Soviets and any other tinpot commies while trying to get them to help him stay in office so he could do more damage for another 4 yrs. He is the cause of our problems in the Middle East today. He aided Khomeni and the Islamic movement so he could get even with the Shah for not paying him and his friends the bribes they demanded. Old Jimmy the churchgoing fool has been exposed for what he really is - a crooked commie traitor!
I agree completely. If we've had worse presidents than Carter and Clinton, then someone has done a touch-up job on all of our history books.
