Carter was such a bastard.....I can't believe he did such a thing.....
I believe that you know all this very well, save your mindgames for somebody else.

Ya know...I love this fucking bogey man wingnuts have about Carter. So....ok...no one will ever mistake Carter as being a great President. So fucking what? He wasn't the bumbling incompetent moron who dug this nations into the biggest shithole it's been in since the great depression, like Bush did, nor was he a lying sack of shit war mongering paranoid criminal who disgraced the office like Nixon did. Fuck I'd take Carter in a heartbeat over another W or Nixon cause I seem to remember that when Carter was President kids my age weren't getting shipped off to war to die cause of some lying right wing politician, again, like they did under W and Nixon.
How fucking clueless can these wingnuts get? LOL
Yet the American people re-elected Reagan with a historic landslide. What a bunch of idiots. LOL.
Simple is the operative word here. Carter ruled out illegal arm sales in the negotiations, whilst Reagan was offering them to the Iranians in secret. If you want to be pedantic, and I know you do, you could call that negotiation. I prefer to call it treasonable and cynical behaviour, which is obviously why you have no problem with it.
Clinton was nearly booted out of office for lying, yet he is Reagan doing exactly that on national TV.

(US News) — President Obama’s slow ride down Gallup’s daily presidential job approval index has finally passed below Jimmy Carter, earning Obama the worst job approval rating of any president at this stage of his term in modern political history.
Since March, Obama’s job approval rating has hovered above Carter’s, considered among the 20th century’s worst presidents, but today Obama’s punctured Carter’s dismal job approval line. On their comparison chart, Gallup put Obama’s job approval rating at 43 percent compared to Carter’s 51 percent.
Back in 1979, Carter was far below Obama until the Iran hostage crisis, eerily being duplicated in Tehran today with Iranian protesters storming the British embassy. The early days of the crisis helped Carter’s ratings, though his failure to win the release of captured Americans, coupled with a bad economy, led to his defeat by Ronald Reagan in 1980.

:lol:
Because they knew he would kick their asses.
And?
Jimmy Carter gave a very impressive speech in 1979 which is even more true today.
Not only that. Obama is no Carter. They are completely different personalities.His approval may be lower than Carter's, but that doesn't mean he'll lose in 2012. We don't have a Reagan.
!!! No...He wasn't!!!! He may not have gotten this nation out of W's shithole as quickly as we'd like but their is no mistaking that it was that incompetent bumbling boob Bush who got us into the shithole in the first place. Quit drinking the kool-aid.???....yes he was.....

I knew there was something we could agree on. Only idiots would have elected and re-elected that phony.

That speech is what lost him the election.
LMAO.... tell us Mott, what is it that Bush did that drove us into the 'ditch' Obama refers to?
The policy decision that had the most impact on our current situation was done by Clinton. Not Bush.
Bush was not a good President to be sure, but your non-stop bullshit is ridiculous. No matter how many times you stomp your feet, it was Clinton that repealed Glass Steagall. It was the DEMS who Controlled Congress the two years prior to the blow up. Yet not one piece of legislation came from them to solve Bush's bumblings as you put it. I wonder why?
Finally, keep in mind that the Bush administration has been weakening CRA enforcement and the law’s reach since the day it took office. The CRA was at its strongest in the 1990s, under the Clinton administration, a period when subprime loans performed quite well. It was only after the Bush administration cut back on CRA enforcement that problems arose, a timing issue which should stop those blaming the law dead in their tracks. The Federal Reserve, too, did nothing but encourage the wild west of lending in recent years. It wasn’t until the middle of 2007 that the Fed decided it was time to crack down on abusive pratices in the subprime lending market. Oops.
Proof positive that voters prefer lies to the truth.
That and the debate. I agree. Had not been so negative and had advanced a positive and optimistic message he darned well could have beaten Reagan cause, at that time, a lot of people were very concerned about Reagan getting us into another uneccasary war and his vodoo economic policies. If I remember correctly, Carter was leading in the polls until he gave this speech and that was the beginning of his precipitate decline. His debate against Reagan, with more of his negative tone, sealed the deal.That speech is what lost him the election.
Ehhhh....Kinda. People would rather hear optimistic bullshit then unpleasant truths. That's for sure. Carter would do things with good intentions, honesty and integrity that were so fucking politically niave that one would shake their heads in disbelief. He was not a bad man or a bad President but good lord could he be a boob politicallly.Proof positive that voters prefer lies to the truth.
