Just an odd observation....but they both got Nobel Peace Prize awards...it’s just that Jimmy had to work for a number of years to get his, and the President just got it for becoming the President. If you ask me....Jimmy probably rates a notch above the President...which is sad when you have to compare the two in the same bucket.

Big difference. Carter was and remains the quintessential Useful Idiot in the advance of communism.

Barry is an actual practicing communist willingly and knowingly doing everything he can to push the advance of communism.

So yes. A very big difference.

Carter is more of a bitter whack-job now than he was as President, but, at least he didn’t insult me and my beliefs on a daily basis, or appear to be deliberately trying to undermine American traditions in every aspect of life. In his day, I think he was more incompetent and clueless than malevolent.

From that perspective, IMO, he’s different from ‘the One’.

I’m sure - Carter is a much better President than Obama - neither of course needs or needed to be in the office!

Pretty sad that the media is still providing a cover for Obama - he’s a failure under what the US Republic should be - but a highly successful socialist in everything he has accomplished in the last 3 yrs!

The Democrats are right: Carter and Obama are different!!

1) Obama cranks the heat at the white house while Carter wore a cardigan sweater and kept the thermostat at 68!

2) Carter served in the military while we don’t even know if Obama filled out a selective service card

3) Obama bows to foreign leaders while Carter just smiled.

4) Carter could operate an umbrella successfully while Obama struggles.

5) Carter was born in Georgia. We have NO CLUE were Obama was born.

They admit that they're in denial.

The reason that this won't work, is that there is a flaw in the design of the algorithm used to calculate the unemployment rate: it is a systematic error which excludes the long-term unemployed, and over-rates part-term and underemployment.

Guess which disaffected voters have the most incentive to vote Obaama OUT, and will be least affected by the weak efforts at propaganda.

A life without money or prospects has a way of focusing one's priorities and honing the ol' bullshit detector.

NO Cheers, unfortunately.

"Obama was set back Friday by disappointing job numbers...."

I noticed that in virtually ALL accounts by the MSM the word "disappointing" preceded the words "job numbers" or "employment figures". It was the Word of the Day.

We didn't read "appalling job numbers", "disgusting job numbers", "disturbing job numbers", "predictable job numbers", "unforgiveable job numbers", "scary job numbers" or "unacceptable job numbers".

Nope, the media used "disappointing" when citing those inconvenient numerical statistics that came up suddenly and hit our poor, young president in the face.....causing him to become a "disappointed" and unfortunate victim of uncontrollable forces.

"Disappointing job numbers" is obviously the best phrase the interlocking mediawhores could come up with to turn a destructive perp into an innocent victim to be sympathized with.

"While many political experts predicted this year’s presidential election would come down to the economy, the middling nature of the recovery signals that campaign tactics and the candidates’ performances may prove more decisive."

LOL, oh sure, if it isn't working out the way you thought it would, why just change the parameters.

Hard to deny, although I will grant that Carter's incompetence was exacerbated more by his liberal tendencies, stubbornness, ignorance, stupidity and vanity, and less by a dislike of the country as is the case with Obama.

When He ran the first time, I called Obama “Carter II”. Now I call Carter “Obama I”. Obama is so bad that I would vote for Carter this year just to get Obama out of there. And Jimmy Carter was absolutely awful.

I would vote for a termite instead of Obama.

5) Carter was born in Georgia. We have NO CLUE were Obama was born.

Well, we do have some clues but they don't agree entirely with each other.
