Welcome back, Carter…

Scared Monkeys  compares  His Oneness to Jimmy Carter,  and includes a wonderful cartoon.  Our  failed three-year  experiment in Keynesian economics may have something to do with that,  along with His Oneness being a big fan of the  one “big”  you can’t escape.

Or perhaps it’s the idiocy of the Obama  energy policy,  under which,  according to the man himself,  energy prices would “necessarily skyrocket”,  yet he is now claiming they won’t.

Could it be Obama’s utter hypocrisy on “undisclosed donors“,  who presented an existential threat to the republic  —  until His Oneness decided to use them himself?

Maybe the  war on portion  sizes and “bad” food being waged by Our Lady of Perpetual Dissatisfaction puts us in mind of Carter keeping the schedule for the White House tennis courts.  Or possibly the sudden USDA attack on the  mighty potato  isn’t to our liking.

Pres. Carter was,  as our current president is held to be,  an intelligent man.  He always believed he was the smartest critter in the room,  even while doing incredibly stupid things,  and blamed We the People for his failures.   Sound familiar yet?

At any rate,  the bin  Laden bounce   has proven helpful to His Oneness in only one category,  and that will most likely be short-lived.
