The worst since Carter
(My new American Thinker post)
Former President Jimmy Carter left office in 1981 -- 42 years ago, if you remember. Today, the former president and Mrs. Carter are in Georgia gracefully facing the end. For the record, I always thought that Carter was a decent man who should have never been president. He won the "Watergate" election and there is not a lot about his presidency that we care to remember.
Today, we remember President Carter because of President Biden, or Carter II as John Kaas wrote:
Watching Biden draw unintended but altogether feeble comparisons between himself, and failed President Jimmy Carter, gives me no satisfaction. It offered only dread as if the best course of action would be to pull the covers back over our heads and hide from the world. But we can’t.
At least when Carter was exposing himself to the world as a weak man, when his name became a joke synonymous with feebleness, when the Americans were taken hostage in Iran. Carter only cemented the notion he was a weakling when he literally panicked and feared he was being threatened by a rabbit near a fishing hole.
Yet even through that, as inflation tore through our wallets and our savings, as Iran burned our flag, as our hostages waited helplessly because the president was so seemingly powerless, the Democrats were behind him and we called him president.
Yes, I always felt that Carter was a patriot but weak and at least surrounded by people who loved the country. I am sorry but that's not how I feel today. Carter made mistakes, but he was in charge. Biden is making mistakes because he is not in charge. Biden allowed climate change fanatics to run his energy policy. He let immigration activists open the border and create chaos everywhere. He withdrew from Afghanistan in the worst possible way.
So Carter was doing his best but Biden doesn't have a clue. Someday we’ll refer to a president as Biden II the new standard to measure incompetence.
