Jimmy Carter turns 100

Original Article

Posted By: Beardo, 10/1/2024 9:05:40 AM

Jimmy Carter has accomplished something no other former U.S. president has — he notched a 100th birthday. (snip) The proud Democrat, who has grown increasingly weaker in recent months, has told relatives he wants to hang on until Oct. 15, when early voting begins in Georgia, so he can cast his ballot in the 2024 presidential election. “I’m only trying to make it to vote for Kamala Harris,” Carter said, his grandson, Jason Carter, told The Atlanta Constitution.

Stop worrying, Jimmy. Alive or dead, someone will make sure you vote - at LEAST once. It may already be true.

Well, happy birthday President Carter. 100, even infirm, is a goal most of us aren't going to see. Assuming you still have your mind and communicate abilities, I wish you more years before you go to see your wife, parents, and others in Heaven. But if the only thing keeping you alive is to vote on Oct 15, well, don't worry. Democrats have dead voters all the time.

I visited the Carter Library a couple of weeks ago. Having been a teenager during his administration, I have vivid memories of that time period, and I will say the curators did a good job of trying to make his administration look better than I remember it being. Decent man way in over his head and a much better ex-President than actual POTUS.

Jimmy, Jimmy, don't worry, Big Bidet has already ensured your place as Second Worst President- you're not the worst! You made it! But yet you feel you need the Kamel A Hairass insurance policy .... or maybe you're just anxious to notch up to Third Worst President?

I agree with poster #5 in that Carter was a better past president than actual White House resident. His administration was a total cluster mess--couldn't get anything right. His failure to support our best friend in the Gulf Region, the Shah of Iran, led to decades of continued war and unrest in that part of the world. How much better the USA would have been had Jimmy gone from high school straight to building homes for the Habitat for Humanity organization, and avoided all government employment.

I am 87 years old and Jimmy Carter was the worst president of the United States in my lifetime. Then along came Obama and knocked Jimmy to 2nd worst. Joe Biden has knocked Jimmy down to 3rd worst. That's far enough. Kamala Harris becoming president is the worst thing that could possibly happen to this country. She won't own up to her extreme liberal views but if she becomes president, they will all show up then. I really don't think she is a smart person (putting it kindly) and she proves it every time she opens her mouth. I have never understood how Jimmy Carter could support abortion considering that he was supposed to be such a Christian man and very active in his church. Killing babies in the womb and Christianity just don't go together.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill Sunday that will bar local authorities from requiring photo ID to vote, which exceeds the state’s requirements. California is one of 14 Democrat-run states that do not require any ID to vote, despite requiring it for many other purposes. Voters at polling places are checked off against voter rolls without further proof being required; voters who submit mail-in ballots must include their signatures on the envelopes that are checked by a machine against the signatures on file in voter registration records.

Kamala Harris’ plan to visit the border has recalled her support for illegal alien Sergio Garcia to obtain a license to practice law, a move opposed by the Obama DOJ. Garcia is now the poster child for the policies Harris would apply as president. (snip) He passed the bar exam in 2009 but opponents questioned whether he should be admitted to a profession whose members have a duty to support state and federal laws. Attorney General Harris submitted an amicus brief and provided an attorney to argue Garcia’s case before the state’s Supreme Court. By most accounts, it was Harris’ support that tilted the case in Garcia’s favor.

Pope Francis has ruffled the feathers of some religious leaders in the United States by saying that all religions provide a path to God. Francis delivered the spontaneous remark late last week during an interfaith gathering with young people at a Catholic institution in Singapore, according to The Christian Post. He went off-script from his prepared speech, emphasizing that different faiths serve as “languages” leading to the same divine truth. “There’s only one God, and each of us has a language to arrive at God,” Francis said, as reported by the Catholic news website Crux Now. “Some are Sheik, Muslim, Hindu, Christian, and they are different paths [to God].”

I don't know what the viewership numbers were on the vice presidential debate between Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, but if they're not high they should have been because that was one of the best debates I've ever watched in my time as a political junkie (which goes back a looong time). Vance, as RedState previously reported, wiped the floor not just with Walz but also the CBS News debate moderators, who did what they weren't supposed to do at least twice in "fact-checking" Vance, only to have him refuse to be silenced by fact-checking them right back.

Tim Walz continued his self-implosion on Wednesday as reporters pressed him on two of his worst moments during his debate against JD Vance. As RedState reported, Walz struggled throughout the night against Vance, who was far more poised and articulate, never mind having the issues on his side. There was one specific instance where the Minnesota governor was pushed on a falsehood he told about being in Hong Kong for the Tiananmen Square protests. Walz proceeded to melt down on stage, with an especially awkward moment toward the end of the exchange. Here's the video for those that didn't see it.

Minnesota Democratic Gov. Tim Walz stunned watchers of Tuesday night’s vice presidential debate as he nervously fidgeted, frowned and even called himself a “knucklehead” — while his Republican counterpart, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, gave a steady and lawyerly presentation and was widely seen as the victor. The largely good-natured forum, hosted by CBS News, featured the two candidates agreeing with each other repeatedly and expressing warm personal sentiments — avoiding the blistering personal attacks that were part of both presidential debates earlier this year. Walz, 60, who has honed a folksy demeanor on the campaign trail, was noticeably nervous and misspoke repeatedly as he wrung his hands, took frantic notes,
