Jimmy Carter Calls Vice President Dick Cheney a Disaster … Now That’s Funny, How Soon they Forget

Former President Jimmy Carter calling anyone a disaster is as laughable as it gets. Disaster may be Carter’s middle name. Or was it “Malaise”? Jimmy Carter gave disaster a whole new meaning to the office of the President of the United states from 1976 to 1980. Mr Carter, do you remember the term misery index? You should, your Presidential administration had the highest misery index ever at 16.27.

Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter on Wednesday denounced Vice President Dick Cheney as a “disaster” for the country and a “militant” who has had an excessive influence in setting foreign policy.

Cheney has been on the wrong side of the debate on many issues, including an internal White House discussion over Syria in which the vice president is thought to be pushing a tough approach, Carter said.

For those on the Left that want to kid themselves and call GWB a worse President than “Peanuts” Carter and Cheney as more of a disaster, please go read a history book. Many in the Republican party these days are not happy with much of what Bush is doing in office especially when it comes to illegal immigration. However, please do not ever mistake who was the worse disaster as President in the last 50 years. That would be Jimmy “I had lust in my heart” Carter. For those on the Left who ether have revisionist history or were infants at the time let us just do a small laundry list of what was the nightmare called the Carter years.

• Highest Misery Index Ever
• Energy Crisis: Fuel Shortages and endless gas lines

How soon the Left has forgotten the long gas lines on the late 70’s and “odd/even” gas rationing. (only people with an odd-numbered license plate could purchase gas on an odd-numbered day)

• Hostages in Iran
• Russians in Afghanistan
• Boycotted 1980 Olympics
• Botched Iranian Hostage Rescue Disaster

Jimmy Carter needs to continue building houses with Habitat for Humanity and stay out if politics. With Carter’s track record as President, he has no room to call anyone any names. Jimmy Carter has a Presidential legacy and it was a “disaster”.
