I must have been dozing through the Carter presidency and and merely dreamt that he was spineless. 

Naw Max,

He was a little of that too. But what does it matter when those with that "spine" get us our Koreas', Vietnams', Iraqs'.  Even an Iran? What's in a spine?  Guts and Glory, for who? What cost? and besides, you're a smart guy and shouldn't need reminding,  guts and such are just other names for stupidity.

Cannot follow you there Max. I'll hand you stars and points and high fives at most turns, but not this time. "Wake up sir" The rabbit hole isn't far off. and "It's a TWISTER" that's about to take us on a ride that we all just might wish a Real guy like Carter was dealing with. Spineless is what we would be, if we sat back and ignored those warnings again, "a fresh breath of air" like carter, offered with faithful solutions to those old problems come back at us, that man Carter warned us about to his undoing, and we ignored.

 What a world we live in huh. "Turn you're key the same time I do sir." Kaboooooooom. Obamaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa  did it God.  But we had a chance to listen to a great guy back in 1977."  Just funnin. But all I am hoping, is that in spite of the past mistakes, those we keep repeating, over and over, we have a chance to turn the corner and see the face of a better world. All we need to do is stop looking back with our "spines" and the fingers of blame (I'm guilty too)and give this guy a chance even if he asks for help from some of our recent best of the worst cabinet clubs. Heaven knows we need it more now than ever.  Wa-HOOOOOOO! Carter 2012! Er......I mean a man just like him?

God Bless.

You can have all the lame-ass Carters you want, Lstreat...and you even admitted his liberal congress never was any good. Therein lies the problem. Liberals never hold their own accountable. This current miserable congress made tons of election promises two and three years ago. What change did they bring?; look at their spending that they control; look at our economy that they have some control of. What have they done about gas prices? Nothing. Nada.

No president can spend a dime, increase taxes, or give taxes back without congress approving it, under the basic rules. You'll see the true definition of a puppet after nobama takes office.

You are wrong about Carter. I served a part of my military service under him. He tried the military and could not hack being an officer after some seven years. He hated the military and us. He screwed with our pay and benefits packages.

And, it was no coincidence that Iran released the 52 hostages on the same day Carter left the presidency.

Yes.  We've had it so good these past 8 years haven't we?  Let's have a show of hands.  Who believes like bigbrother and darylmaxen the past 8 years have been wonderful?

I tell you what.  Those 52 hostages?  They returned upright and walking.  With all their limbs intact.  Pyschologically, they were probably just as destroyed as our brave fighting men and women who are returning from Iraq and Afghanistan.

Oh how the past 8 years have been wonderful.  So why should anyone want to change?  You can have all the lame ass Bushes, Cheneys, Rumsfeldts, and Gonzalez's you want.  Incompetence knows no bounds!
