Not very Christian of Jimmuh.

Will anybody care when Carter finally dies?

[Ann Archy]

Teddy killed Mary Jo AND HEALTHCARE!!

Nixon. You've probably heard that there's a special place in Hell. Well, until Carter dies, Nixon has to stay there.

Republicans bash other Republicans while they are alive.
Democrats bide their time and then speak ill of the dead.

[oh8eleven]

an embittered Carter
A constant state of mind for the second worst president in history.

Good entertainment value ping to Today show list.

Not surprising when you remember the vitriol of the 1980 Dem primary. It was apparent that Carter and Kennedy hated each other. It hasn’t abated, I see. I later heard the rumor that Joe Kennedy, Sr. had met Lillian something like 9 months before Jimmah was born. I don’t believe those rumors, but I think that one was born to try and explain that primary animosity.

When two detestable people are throwing feces at one another, what is the proper reaction? When one is a dead man and the other a nearly dead man, then what should the proper reaction be? Given that it is Carter and Kennedy, I’m guessing we need a couple extra truck loads of feces to keep the pot boiling. You would think someone in the entertainment world would understand this? Mika, too dumb even for TeeVeeee!

How shallow of you! Have you forgotten about the millions of state and federal employees that will get a day off with pay?!?

[CaptainK]

Nixon is dead but you can speak ill of him any day of the week on MSNBC. But a slob like Kennedy is spoken of in hallowed whispers.

[SaxxonWoods]

Perhaps we owe Kennedy a big thank you if Carter is right. Can you imagine how broke the country would be by now if health control had passed in the ‘70s?

[NonValueAdded]

Carter accused Kennedy of "deliberately blocking" Carter's proposed legislation, in order to deny him a major legislative achievement.

"I could'a been a contender"

[eyedigress]

Jimmah is wasist!

[tina07]

about as broke as it is now??

[Waverunner]

Carter did a few things right.
He brought Egypt back into a more western posture, as you might have noticed , Egypt and Israel stopped waging war on each other.
His support of Habitat for Humanity helped many people. And it's a good model for assisting people that need help, You work, we help you. And it doesn't depend on tax dollars. He blew Iran, but if you look at the weapons systems he authorized ( M1, M2/M3, Ohio class, ect) They are the backbone. As he get older, he gets more outspoken, but he's not the first elderly American to go that way. And he didn't promise the voters one thing and do another. You saw what he was, and he did what he said.

[Pharmboy]

C’mon, all Carter is doing is demonstrating his ecumenicism. After going after the Jews, he’s now going after the Irish...

[cayuga]

Will anybody care when Carter finally dies?

I will. Peeing on his grave is one of very few items on my "bucket list".

[Lee'sGhost]

Was at Arlington this spring and walked past Ted’s grave. You have no idea how hard such an action is to resist.
