tgr4lfe 220 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 And yet we're TOLD by the wizards of Smart that Jeb is the defacto GOP nominee. I agree. The defacto Republican Leaders want Jeb! to be the nominee and were looking for this to be a repeat of 200 when W waltzed in with so much $$$ there wasnt really a chance for anyone else. We got Bush II and Two More Wars to go with Bush I and One War. The Neo-Cons, Halliburton, etc want Bush III and likely yet another war in the ME. Excuse me if i dont fall for it anymore. Carter got us involved in the ME on the wrong side of history with supporting the Shah. I think we need to just go and do work elsewhere and let the ME shake and bake on its own.As for President, I am looking forward to the day coming in the primaries where Jeb! falls flat on his face. The one good thing about Trump, he has enough cash in his back pocket to beat Jeb! While I agree about Jeb, and the ME for the most part, my concern is that the U.S. will be so standoffish with the ME that the radical Islamist grow bigger and stronger and thus be more of a threat to the continental U.S., not to mention our allies. I'm fine for letting them alone, my fear is that just lets the extremist fester and they become a powder keg. Main thing is to keep them off U.S. soil. I don't understand why we don't just bomb the hell out of the extremist training camps?? Seems like logical way to seriously eradicate and extinguish their growth. As far as the candidates go, I don't know yet...I'm still reviewing and learning about each of them. I have no idea as of right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was in all the papers. Carter backed a butchering thug and set us up as the bad guy in Iran for perpetuity. I hope you realize Carter backed that butchering thug because we were heavily involved in the coup that replaced their popular and democratically-elected prime minister with that butchering thug. Carter didn't set us up as the bad guy in Iran, the prior two decades of supporting and arming the Shah did that. Carter was just continuing our status quo.

It is your belief in knowing what you do not actually know and your ability to manipulate information into supporting those beliefs. When questioned, you should not respond with thoughts or facts.

DKW 86 7,426 Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 If i thought either of you to knew anymore than some crazy talking points i would be offended. As for World History, i got at least a minor in it. As for Carter, worst president in the last 50 years, I refuse to waste any time on re-examining his failed Presidency. He got elected talking about "The Misery Index" (Inflation and Un-employment). Funny thing, his policies were so bad that "The Misery Index" actually went up under his watch, not that he cared one thing for the common folks. http://www.history.c...-hostage-crisis The United States, fearful of stirring up hostilities in the Middle East, did not come to the defense of its old ally. (For one thing, President Carter, aware of the Shah’s terrible record in that department, was reluctant to defend him.) However, in October 1979 President Carter agreed to allow the exiled leader to enter the U.S. for treatment of an advanced malignant lymphoma. His decision was humanitarian, not political; nevertheless, as one American later noted, it was like throwing “a burning branch into a bucket of kerosene.” Anti-American sentiment in Iran exploded.

Only one but Coolidge to not have a major scandal involved. http://www.pennlive....ssors_on_t.html Professors Picks: Carter: Worst on Economics My opinion of Carter is shared by even the real thinkers on the Left. No doubt his administration performed poorly under difficult circumstances. However, your populist narrative is not absolute (yes, I am aware that, in your mind, your opinion is. So please, spare me the PMs.). Carter is the last President to actually lower the debt burden when adjusted for inflation. Perhaps he did not know that, "deficits don't matter"? Carter never had to go to congress and ask for an unqualified Trillion dollars. Despite the Shah being overthrown and the bungled attempt to rescue the hostages, Carter did broker peace between Egypt and Israel. Point being, the point is debatable and, relative. Has the destruction created/caused by subsequent administrations been as easy to overcome? And, although it is outside of his presidency, I cannot think of any former president who has done more for humanity after leaving office. So, while labeling Jimmy Carter, "the worst U.S. president of a generation" may be easy and fashionable, is it more representative of reality or rhetoric? I believe the reality is definitely arguable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
