    Funny thing about Carter, he was more conservative back then than most politicians calling themselves "conservatives" today...

    He was indeed a very good man. He was dealt an insurmountably shitty hand as President,but his post Presidency work will most likely never be equaled.

    It is proper to take alarm at the first experiment on our liberties. The freeman of America did not wait till usurped power had strengthened itself by exercise, and entangled the question in precedents. James Madison

    Shame, sad to see him die. He sure had a long life though.

    “You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colin."
