I got out of the Army in 76 so I wasn't exactly a kid when Carter was Prez. I remember that inflation and interest rates were off the charts under Carter. IMHO, life under Carter was the good old days compared to what we face now. It never crossed my mind that we might not survive Carter. I wish I could say the same of Obama/Reid/Pelosi.

Good to hear Peri.

I hope that Muslim pig survives his ordeal just long enough to be told that it was a woman that pumped 4 rounds into his ass and then dies a slow, painful death with that news to gnaw on....

They'd better charge him with 12 counts of murder, 30 counts of attempted murder AND TERRORISM.
If they leave off the terrorism charge that would be WRONG.
