That melon farmer has been dying for 10 years. Perhaps this time we'll get lucky, but he just won't go away.

Who would have ever thought that he would die as only the third worst POTUS in history.
He was extraordinarily bad ... yet he's been surpassed.

Pretty decent article. It sounds like the end of his life's journey isn't very far away.

He wasn't a very good President, IMO. I certainly didn't agree with his politics. But, I can not find it in myself to dislike the man. Don't know what all else he may have done, but, post-Presidency he did a lot of good work with Habitat for Humanity.

He ran his suck about President Trump and he interefered with US foreign policy after he left office.
This guy- a terrible president- condemned President Trump, who did much for this nation.
The sooner he goes, the better. Twenty years ago would have been too late, but I'll take today if that's what we get.
The USSS said he was a phony, treated them like dirt while making a show of getting his own bags out of the trunks of cars while the cameras were around.
Not that it matters, but I've met the son of a bitch, and he couldn't even manage to crack a smile. Carter has never given a damn about the American public. He was a ruthless, ambitious politician and that's all he'll ever be, no matter how much the left sanctifies him after he kicks. They're as phony as he is.

Jimmy Carter as POTUS can be credited with helping to create modern day Islamic terrorism with his actions in regards to Iran. He was a horrible president, just awful. And as an ex-president, he was an asshole and an idiot. His deal that he brokered in North Korea as a self-appointed negotiator for Bill Clinton was a disaster, giving N. Korea two new nuclear reactors and 5 billion in cash in exchange that they promise not to develop nukes.
I remember a story involving the band The Butthole Surfers- they were staying at a friend's house in Atlanta and Amy Carter was also at the house, sleeping in a bedroom while the band was sleeping on the floor in the living room. She came down at 3:30am with her suitcase because her father, ex-president Jimmy, was going to pick her up. When she left the suitcase and went back upstairs, lead singer Gibby Haynes rubbed his genitals all over the suitcase, and the very stoned band watched out thru the curtains as Jimmy arrived and took the suitcase and loaded it into the car.

The only thing bad about his death– the FLOOD of sobbing eulogies from Biden, Obuma, et al.
Serious about crackers.

Oh, yes. The Earth should stop spinning on its axis for Saint Jimmuh of Plains. Likely, we'll have a week or ten days of news stories and TV specials, and memorials and an elaborate state funeral with all the commie assholes putting on their best sad faces.

His presidency was milquetoast, he did little, however what he did do, generally made things & situations worse.
His post-presidency life defined the term legacy rehabilitation.

Try as I might I can't forget about this fuckwit; 1st day in office he pardoned the Viet Nam draft evaders. I bought my house with a 10.2% mortgage. Of course I wasn't as bad off as the Americans held in Iran for a year while he had fire-side chats with us telling us...words or something.
A more useless sack of shit never sucked a peanut out of its shell, until at my surprise, now.

I left active duty when that idiot was president because of what he did to the military. Fuck him. He can take Hanoi Jane with him

This 'Hospice' announcement is a precursor for his exit from the planet very soon I imagine. Everyone above has pretty much covered what I could say about him. When he goes, I'm going on a total news blackout as Biden, Clinton, the Democrats and the media will be acting like he was the greatest President we ever had.

I never wish personal harm on pretty much anyone even the second worst POTUS of all time behind BHO. Note I haven't included Joe Bite-Me in the above as I don't think he is really in charge - just a means to an end but controlled by who or a group - I don't know but I know he hasn't any part of the decision process - except maybe for determining what Jello flavor to eat.

Never wish someone would die but I’m not going to give it a second thought when he goes.
Situation awareness is defined as a continuous extraction of environmental information, integration of this information with previous knowledge to form a coherent mental picture in directing further perception and anticipating future events. Simply put, situational awareness mean knowing what is going on around you.
