Somebody must have reminded Jimmy Carter this weekend of what conditions were like during his presidency.
From MSNBC:
Former President Jimmy Carter on Monday said his comments over the weekend about the Bush administration were “careless.”
Carter was quoted Saturday as saying “I think as far as the adverse impact on the nation around the world, this administration has been the worst in history.”
Jimmy Carter was undeniably the worst excuse for a president (including Bill Clinton): he emasculated the U.S. military, turned over the Panama Canal, humiliated us before far lesser enemies, stood impotent as the Soviets invaded Afghanistan, did nothing as our hostages were held by Iranian fanatics, presided over double-digit inflation and 7.7% unemployment and 20% interest rates and gas prices that were inflation-adjusted higher than today.
Carter must have been hoping we'd forgotten those little tidbits, and he could replace himself with Bush as the "worst president."
Bush isn't perfect, but he's a far cry from the miserable president Jimmy Carter was.
