Jimmy's Rose Colored Glasses
Excerpt:
America is no better off now than it was in the late 1970s and early 1980s, says former President Jimmy Carter. From national politics to relationships with other nations, there is a lot of room for improvement.
"We had almost complete harmony with every nation on Earth," the Nobel Peace Prize winner said of his administration. "We not only preserved peace for our country, we never went to war. We never dropped a bomb. We never fired a missile."
Comment: The world improved immensely when the Gipper was elected!
At the White House, Carter was unaffected by the 11% inflation rate, could buy gas on odd AND even days, and didn't have to push his car to a gas station... And how about the Olympic athletes who were working hard prepping for the 1980 Olympics which they couldn't participate in... All a part of Carter's foreign policy which basically said, "If you aren't nice we're not gong to play with you..."

ReplyDeleteApparently we haven't found a cure for senility either.
