Statement on President Carter’s Health

Feb. 18, 2023
ATLANTA (Feb. 18, 2023) — After a series of short hospital stays, former U.S. President Jimmy Carter today decided to spend his remaining time at home with his family and receive hospice care instead of additional medical intervention. He has the full support of his family and his medical team. The Carter family asks for privacy during this time and is grateful for the concern shown by his many admirers.

He's 98 and has had a long life. To his credit, he served his country in the U.S. Navy, for which I salute him.
And, as Mr. M just pointed out, he at least lived long enough to see a president worse than he.

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
And he will die with a smile on his face knowing that now he is no longer the worst President we had.
The Republic is lost.

He was a lousy President but a good man. He was patriotic. He was loyal. He was charitable. May his last hours be peaceful.

Atlanta?  Why didn't he go to Cuba to have his surgery done?  He has been telling us for decades that Cuba has better health care than the US.

No, he was not.  Jimmy Carter was a racist piece of shit.

  • Dems-greatest existential threat to USA republic!
He lived long enough to see a POTUS worse than him?  I disagree.  I think he has seen three presidents worse than him.

Top of the list is Biden.  This clown will go down in history as the worst by a light year.

2nd, also worse than Carter is Obama.  This turd probably did more permanent damage to this nation than any other POTUS.

And last but not least, George Bush.  This moron clown's tea and crumpets response to the worst attack on the USA was to take three months before he acted or did anything.  Had I been POTUS, I would have rendered the southern half of Afghanistan unlivable for 1,000 years within 24 hours of learning conclusively who and where from those that conducted the 9/11 attack emerged from.  Not one more American would have died needlessly.

And f***ing France, Germany and Russia would not dared to criticize the USA's actions like they did, condemning our response as they did.  It was Bush that made America appear weak, and then Obama made it weaker, and now Biden, which makes the USA look like a defenseless cow with a pack of a dozen coyotes ready to pounce and do their thing.

Those are my feelings as well.
In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

His Carter Foundation is essentially a pro-Palestinian terrorism organization. I long ago thought he was a decent, just incompetent, man. But it's hard to be that charitable.

Agree with the "lousy" part, the rest no...

He canoodled with dictators and despots and was a weak man.

Gave in to Omar Torrijos, sang praises to Fidel Castro, shunned Israel in favor of Palestinian terrorists...to name a few.

 If he had been wearing head protection he would still be in good  health.  Just more evidence that the government needs to mandate protective headgear for all seniors.

  • I don't believe in Trump anymore, he's an illusion
Whatever anyone thinks of Carter, I'll  888mouth, can you imagine the indignity of having a mumbling, bumbling moron like Brandon deliver your eulogy? I bet, like the mulatto, he makes it all about him instead of Carter. If Amy has any control she should insist/demand that neither Brandon, Obama or The Cackler be allowed near the podium, her best bet to my thinking would be to push for Bill Clinton.

She might.  I have a lot of respect for Amy.  She is genuinely a good person.  Can't say the same for her father though.
