I would lose an Old West gun fight. Quoting: Deplorable Hoosier He was a boy scout compared to our politicians nowadays. So was Nixon though. LOL People can question his effectiveness -- the effectiveness of his policies. They can also question his connections. His motives...probably not so much. AKA Tiger Blood |

Most of us dont recognize the USA. This mess saddens me. Carter was part of the problem , but compared to Obama etc he is a nice guy. Last Edited by Deplorable Hoosier on 02/18/2023 03:55 PM |

My father died, in hospice care, at age 59 from lung cancer over twenty years ago. Some hospice care workers are real angels in my opinion. (Yes, I hope they don't get dumb about the pain meds. Probably in Jimmy's case, they won't.) AKA Tiger Blood |

LOL Most presidents since Nixon did worse things than he got deposed for doing. Clown world indeed. Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak. |

No one ever ate anything by accident.” |

Not totally innocent, but compared to today... His passing will kind of mark the end of an era, I suppose. There is a reason he was not really a member of the ex-presidents club -- and why Dubya, Obama and Clinton are all so chummy. AKA Tiger Blood |

"Whip Inflation Now" Wage and Price controls (also failed policies) And oil prices creamed Jimmy. A lot of those things were actually out of his control, but his response to them was seen as extremely ineffectual. "moral malaise" "put on a sweater" We have a tendency to blame the guy at the top at the time, but in a free market enconomy neither the government nor the president are supposed to have that much control over the economy -- and the reality is: they don't.

To know where your heart is, look where your mind goes when it wanders. A rock in bad hands killed Abel. A rock in good hands killed Goliath. It isn't about the rock. A true warrior fights not because he hates the one in front of him, but because he loves those behind him. INTP-A |

I suppose s rousing “ Wellstone funeral” will give the democrats a chance to look like they have a serious presidential tradition.

I was born in 1965. So I was a boy who became a teenager in the 70's -- became a teen specifically in the late 70's. So, I myself was more innocent then. At least until I was introduced to drugs.

Quoting: Tiger Blood Including the fact that it doesn’t qualify you to be a President. 444 days our Tehran embassy people were humiliated along with our country because of incompetence.

When my husband was dying from terminal cancer, I had to fight to get him pain meds. One of our friends had cancer all over, and refused chemo, as the prognosis was 2-4 months WITH chemo. The doctor refused to give him any pain meds unless he agreed to have chemo. We all bought him herbal substances to help with the pain. Praise God from Whom all Blessings flow !!! |
