Carter did more in 4 years than the twit that followed did in 8... well except tripling the deficit... Reagan beat him hands down on that one. Oh and growing government, oh and raising taxes, oh and taking out all the negative impacts to inflation, should I mention Star Wars or the Missile defense system? ..... Tell me again why Reagan was liked?
President Carter is the first victim in the confluence of media propagandists and smear merchants that was ushered in under Reagan and has grown to where it is today. Lee Atwater helped lead the character assassination of Pres. Carter, and it was kept going strong by Karl Rove for the 8 years while the idiot frat boy was President.
Pres. Carter was about energy conservation and was laughed at, Pres. Carter was about peace, and was laughed at.
America is a very sick country, and look at the denigrating posts of trained sheep attacking Carter and you can see this sickness in full bloom and how it has grown over the past 30 years
Carter administration also negotiated the hostages out, but republicans traded arms for hostages so that the release of the hostages would coincide with Reagan's first days in office. Carter would never stoop so low.

If Reagan had been any kind of a real man, he would have let Carter annouce the release of the hostages.
JC was so excited when he shot his first quail, he set his shotgun down and ran home to show the quail to his father. Searched forever to find where he set the gun down.
Made him seem a kindred spirit in his love for hunting.
I still can't get one of the best Saturday Night bits done by Guest Host Richard Benjamin, Dan Ackroyd, Jane Curtin and Garrett Morris et al out of my mind. They introduced the world to the Pepsi Syndrome . Where a nuclear accident is caused by a soft drink being spilled on the reactor control panel! Funnyiest line was when Richard Benjamin (the spokesman for the TMI Utility) descrided the radiation release as being like a chest x-ray over and over and over again.
Another thing forgotten was his response to the Russian Invasion of Afganistan in 1979. They got hit where it really hurt them. The United States boycotted the 1980 Olympic Games in Moscow and spoiled their propaganda show! All the empty seats and little coverage in the West because we got countries like West Germany Japan, Canada and Australia to join us. All the wasted roubles for the Russians spent big time .
Oh, yes. Denying 466 American athletes the chance to compete against the best of the best in the 1980 Olympic Games. That really showed those Ruskies what we thought of them.

Is that the one where Garrett Morris played JC's "giant satisfied" nurse?
