"Here he co-om-mes, that's Daffy's clown."

Djimmy Carter's Second Term
By Paul Miller

It was a cold and rainy October night when my mother and I stood outside a Skokie, Illinois Synagogue to hear and hopefully meet Georgia Governor James Earl "Jimmy" Carter. My parents and most Americans were still sickened over Watergate, President Gerald Ford's unconditional pardon of Richard Nixon and the disaster of the Vietnam War. They hungered for "change" and "new hope". Many Americans believed they found what they desperately yearned for in a peanut farmer turned politician from Georgia.

Four years later Jimmy Carter's name couldn't be uttered by my father without being proceeded by four-letter expletives. My mother cried herself to sleep believing that Carter's school-busing program was going to take me from my elementary school down the block to a school and hour away on the southside of Chicago. Supporters of Israel began to distrust him as he began showing signs of an anti-Israel bias. The economy was devastating families with double-digit inflation and the Iran hostage crisis made Americans ashamed of their President.

Today there is an eerie similarity to the election that led up to the disastrous Carter administration. All the Presidential candidates are speaking the rhetoric of "change" and "trust" in government. However, assumed Democratic nominee Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) has based his entire bid for the White House with Carter-style ideas and campaign policy advisers stemming directly from the administration and school of thought of the Carter Presidency. {Yahoo: Carter's Second Term}

Carter had the stupidity and gall to attempt to blame the American people for his own failures. "I am reminded again that all the legislation in the world can't fix what is wrong with America." (July 15, 1979) B. Hussein blames others for pointing out his failures, too. Blames ... Others. When you're weak and inexperienced, blame others.
B. Hussein has mostly Carter and Clinton retreads as advisors which shows just how inexperienced he is.

BTW our Constitution Limits The Government. The citizens get their rights from God not as a check from Washington. Limits on government are the historical, important part.
