Now who really was the worst President???

[sunnyday]

Skywatch, I'm about to faint. I'm not used to being agreed with in here! Usually, I catch it for my views. All presidents should have half the character and morals of Carter, but they certainly don't.

So very true...also, my folks voted for Carter...Carter and GW Bush are certainly 2 gentlemen who when it comes to character, morals and spiritually
...they are in that category.

Carter is a true American. He has done so much good for the needy, such as his work with Habitat for Humanity.

And the work he did there in Haiti as a good will ambassador...to help diffuse tension there in the past.

Sunnyday, I agree with you on Carter's integrity. He is a very good, kind, Christian man.

He was, however, a very ineffective "bad" President. IMHO

a nice fellow, but thank god he wasnt president during ww2, or in any time of crisis

i have often said carter should have done this:
he should have told iran that he would give them 1 week to release all the pow's, or he would declare war on iran. no negotiating, no deals, no nothing.
at the end of 1 week, if the pow's were not on friendly soil, war would commence. i think iran would have given them back posthaste.

I find this to be quite a terriffic post. Carter was not involved in a time of crisis. Well we were dealing with the oil embargo and Iran, but Carter could have easily been very impatient and made some real stupid moves as a president that could have really thrown us into crisis.

Just a brief comment....On another thread it was said that a true Patriot does not criticize his country.............

Hmmmmmm........................

I think I said that in jest, as it seems that if I complain about how Bush has handled the war efforts I get brandished unpatriotic, and that I wish for the collapse of America, I just get unnerved by that stuff.

Sorry, I did not mean that as a slam at anyone. Just a thought in general. I should have kept my fingers shut.

I just feel that good, bad or indifferent, they have all tried to do their jobs. I hate to think what kind of president I would be! LOL

[Pburgh]

LOL , kept my finger shut - that was a good one weatherwunder!!!!!!

Bill, it looks like you're from my "neck of the woods". I feel that, in times like this, we should stand by our elected official and their decisions. I think that the terrorist are counting on us to be divided!!! If we are not united in the cause to eliminate them, then I feel that and they feel that they have won. I don't want the lives that have been lost to have been lost for nothing.

Well said Pburgh!

No I know you weren't slamming me at all. We're cool. I do understand why people are against criticism of the President, I personally don't like it if people criticize the troops, because I feel fortunate I am not over there right now with them, and to criticize those valiant people who chose to take a job, that I quite honestly would be very afraid to take. As far as policy makers such as the president, I feel there is a need to keep them on their toes. The President in my view went in without much of an after war plan, and I am quite dissapointed, but all I can hope for is that they don't give up and keep pushing forward in the war effort.

he did, he showed us as weak and pathetic to the arab world

[rainstorm]

and of course, he also presided over the destruction of the cia during the time of the church committee. can anyone say 9/11?

[Yankeegirl]

Not into politics much, but I would have to say Clinton was...

[streetsoldier]

My money is on Franklin Pierce.

Showing over and over and over again the man at the end of the dog chain being held by the female soldier, and who the heck would know who he is anyway so way so big deal about fuzzying out his face, to me has moved from being a negative commentary on our government to a commentary on our military and now being so overplayed as to attemopt to be a negative worldwide commentary on the American people as afterall, the soldiers are one of "us" as US citizens. To try to link Americans to the emotions attempting to be conveyed in that photo is "anti the American people" which is therefore anti-American.
