The thing is while I get the Obama = Carter meme is popular since that was the last Democratic President who was an abject failure, there really aren't much points of comparison at all. The characteristics of the Carter administration (in popular perception) were rising unemployment, a disastrous foreign policy, out of control inflation and a complete lack of legislative accomplishment. How do any of those match up with the current incumbent? Huh

But even Republicans have to admit that Obama's done a pretty good job on foreign policy.

Because the only way to stop Bush's wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are to invade Iran and Libya, right? Not to mention his unconstitutional assassination of Anwar Al Awaki.
And by 'invading Iran and Libya' you mean 'sanctioning Iran and overthrowing Qaddafi', right?

More evidence that putting Sanchez on ignore was the wisest decision I've made during my time on this forum.

The bizarre obsession with Woodrow Wilson is one of the most entertaining features of the freak show that is the populist American Right. I assume Glenn Beck is responsible.

Having read as much as I could stomach of that trainwreck of an article I'm convinced the solution to all that ails America is rounding up the publishers and readers of the American Thinker and putting them in isolated prison camps in Alaska far away from intelligent life.
