Carter was President for 5 more months. Reagan was president for 8 years after that and then 4 years of Bush 41 “Let’s see……Jimmy was a Democrat…..he had a Democrat House, and a Democrat Senate…….

If they couldn’t solve the problem then, what can possibly lead you to expect they can solve the problem now?!? If you vote Democrat in 2008, YOU are the problem.”
