    Oh, I don’t know…depending on the price, it might be a good way to dispose of some old shoes you don’t wear anymore.

    Remember how the Usual Wingnuts tried to start the meme that Obama was horrible without a teleprompter? Those were good times. I can’t help but wonder how drunk Commander Bunnypants (ret.) is at any given moment.

    G.W.Bush will always have die-hard fans with deep fantasies of a man that never existed.

    People paid to hear Jimmy Carter after he left office. Regardless of what you think of his politics, he is one of only four former presidents and certainly has a unique perspective on the presidency and events that occurred while he was in office. I would imagine he will have no shortage of speaking engagements.

    Yes and while it can be argued that President Carter was a bad president, nobody thinks he’s an idiot. The same can’t be said for Bushie.

    I was going to say, ‘Umm, scoreboard.’ for the two terms W won, but I guess were are now entering Carter’s second term, so I better not.

    And speaking of speeches, how ironic that Obama’s speech tonight about the stimulus that he’s received very little bipartisan support for and folks here scream for him to forget the traitorous Republicans, that Joe Gibbs decides to phrase the occasion as “Reaganesque”.

    These guys are amazing.

      You make no sense. While backed up by bad ideas nobody questions that at the stagecraft of presidency, Reagan was great. It’s why he was a popular president, unlike the conservative who just left office.

    Idiot? Perhaps not. Unless being anti-semitic makes one an idiot.

    And that depends on whether criticizing the Israeli government makes one “anti-semitic.”

    Criticizing the Israeli government does not, but being a propaganda mouthpiece for Hamas and other Palestinian terrorists does.

    First of all, he’s not Reagan.

    Second of all, if you’re saying Obama is backed up by bad ideas nobody questions but is great at stagecraft, which it very much sounds like you are, then maybe tonight’s speech will be ‘Reaganesque’. Finally something we see eye to eye on.

      No, he’s not Reagan. He’s far better than Ronny Reagan (for one, he can compose his own thoughts). But once again you engage in word twisting, so whatever.

    First, the real truth of Reagan wa that he was a consumate showman who’s charm hide the fact that he started the destruction of the American middle class. The successes of his presidency as it is viewed now, is mostly myth.

    Now, comparing Bush’s failed presidency on “bad ideas” is a talking point put forth by morons i.e Bush’s brain-dead adherents. He had no ideas but he did have plans, plans that we are paying dearly for now.

    There has been no president worst than Bush for the last 60 plus years.

    His ideas weren’t bad, they were patently dishonest and driven by his incompetence and warped ego. Bush left hundreds of thousands dead due to the hubris of his adminstration. Only a fool would believe otherwise.

    “The successes of his presidency as it is viewed now, is mostly myth.”

    Like how he tore down the Berlin Wall and made Communism collapse.

    Like I’ve said in the past, Armstrong and Henderson have more to do with the collapse of the Soviet Empire than Reagan did.

    He also, unlike Reagan, doesn’t make racist jokes.

    actually, Reagan wasn’t Reagan, either. At least not the myth the corpse fuckers dreamed up.
