Is Obama Another Jimmy Carter?

During the U.S. Presidential primaries last year, I had expressed my misgivings that Barack Obama might turn out to be another Jimmy Carter, whose confused thinking and soft image paved the way for the success of the Islamic Revolution in Iran.

"They believe that their God is the only God" and you believe YOUR GOD is the only GOD, no? I happen to think ALL GODS are fake. As for the rest of your rant, I’ve always had freedom and no one has had to die for it, lately at least. Stop believing this Republican trope. World War II was a just war, and the last time “freedom was threatened, IN EUROPE” every other war since then, waged by the US has been for war profiteering. If you think IRAQ had anything to do with 9/11 then there is no discussing this rationally with you.

Gringo says:but if he were it would still be much better than having another BUSH. didn't waste lives in a war of lies.
^
I just do not understand you liberals. You have never proven that President Bush Lied, yet you make the claim at every opportunity. If you say it often enough it will become true...NO
As far as President Bush's policys are concerned, he kept us safe for 7 and 1/2 years. Oh my Lord what a sin that was.
You liberals are just still steaming over the fact that President Bush Beat your Mr. Green "Gore".
As far as his claims about global warming are concerned it was so incorrect the name had to be changed to climate change. The earth has been doing that ever since it was created. Long before man ever came along.

BTW......war of lies? Obama has lied more in 126 days than all Presidents combined for the past 100 years. You hate Bush so much you cannot even think straight. Carter was a terrible President, but he cared about people. Obama is a terrible President and he doesn't care about anything except getting reelected. BTW....Clinton was a pretty good President except for not protecting this country.

DaBird, I agree with you about Obama's deceit and that libs hate Bush they can't see the truth and they would have a different take on things if he would have been weak and we lost more American lives due to terrorism. I disagree as far as Clinton he wasn't as good as people thought he had a good Republican congress that put forth a lot of the ideas. Clinton also was luky enough to benefit from the dot com era. He failed miserably in the end at keeping an eye on foreign policy. Number one job of President is to keep Americans safe. I also disagree that President Obama is concerned most about being re-elected if he did he would be more of a centrist then leftist. A lot of people that voted for him won't vote for him again because they mistakenly thought he would be a centrist. This is what makes his presidency scarier. He will push as much as he can through while popular enough to do it and not care if re-elected.

Obama is definitely worse. In regards to Carter: We knew exactly who he was and where he came from; Obama, we don't know much about his past and what we do know is scary! Also, thus far in his presidency, all his decisions have been dictorial and have been disasterous for the country and will only get worse. Carter was a buffoon, but Obama is a VERY dangerous man.

Sorry for you

Taleeeeeeshhhaaaa, it's hard to look at things in perspective when you are looking through those black glasses. We all can't be wrong. You need to wake up and quit playing racist, and look at things through the eyes of being American instead of being black, I'm sorry for you that you have such a lack of confidence in Hussein that it seems everythingYOU say is about Hussein being black. It's about his ideology. You cannot dispute what he has done thus far.

Why is it you leftist always play the race card when anyone has a differing opinion from you. Obama is an autocrat who is bent on the dragging this country into socialism . His beatification by the leftist loonies and national media is destroying this country. Its not his skin color ,its his perverted sense of of what democracy is thats dangerous.

The only reason they bring of the race issue, is because there is no better argument. The have nothing else to stand on. Instead of using the race card give real merits. If a black did not like Bush, did that make a black racist? Of course not! If I do not like Castro, does that make me racist? Of course not. President Obama is not perfect, so why can't there many other reasons why someone might not like him. Why are some so close minded and use the race card. Personally I see even more here. I see a man with a white mother. So, I guess he is only half Black. Maybe everyone is only half prejudice. More people are not prejudice than are. I am sure there are some, a minority of them, who are racist, but that argument goes both sides, I am sure there are Blacks that are racist and only voted for him because he is half black. But most of us black, white, yellow, tan, etc are not racist. Find a better argument then he is perfect and you must not like him because he is Black.

Carter was a fool, his advice was wear a sweater and turn down the thermostat. This from a person with training in nuclear power. It proves that an education does not guarantee good judgment. Obama is worse because his education is as a lawyer, a profession he apparently is incapable of fulfilling. They are known as "educated fools."

With the highest unemployment, inflation, taxation rates to date in history under Carter, I am confident that the current president will surpass these benchmarks. Not only are small businesses being shut down but our biggest industries are being "nationalized" or "forced" into bankruptcy while still receiving billions of our yet to be earned tax dollars.
The only things being stimulated are universal housing(freddie--another $19billion, fannie--$6.1 billion and no media coverage/Acorn protests for their $450million in bonuses) and Medicaid(universal health care) . All of which continue to cripple our economy.
And it is only May. Of the first year of a first term.

President Obama is more dangerous than carter for the simple reason is that his party controls both senate and congress and that makes him very dangerous.

Obama is far worse than Carter. Obama has an agenda that Carter didn't seem to have. Carter may have been stupid but he didn't outright lie and mislead the American people. Obama has a hatred for this country, he is immature, and works for only a small group of hate-filled idiots. Carter seemed to have a true heart for the country, until now.

Dear God, were it true that BO is ONLY as bad as Carter!!!!!! Carter was naive. a tad mentally slow, and maybe ill informed! But BO? He is super intelligent, with an evil side to match. I am most sincerely convinced that he wants "a one world order", and fully hopes to hold a high ranking position in its administration. If the next president is a republican, he or she had better be someone worthy of sitting to the right of God, because we shall need nothing short of DIVINE inspiration and intervention to survive and overcome the BO damage.
