Ann Coulter reminisces about JC and Barack ( no, not Jesus Christ!)

...what happened when a previous U.S. president tried his best to kill capitalism and wreck the country.
Back then the "Dismantler-in-Chief" was Jimmy Carter. In the 1970s, "Smilin' Jimmy" complained about our "inordinate fear of communism" -- and carried his own suit bag to show what a regular guy he was.****Of course, subsequent Secret Service revelations are that he did so only on camera (when it was empty); the SS carried his bags out of camera shot.)**** He also gave us economic stagnation, hyperinflation, stock-market disintegration, and the contempt of the Soviet Union, Iran, and every other democracy-hating dictatorship on earth.
Obama makes Carter look like Ronald Reagan. He's apologized for America to so many countries that the only ones left on the remorse-tour are Cuba and North Korea. (Wait for it!) Obama is spending so much, so fast, that the inflationary havoc he'll cause is going to make the Carter years look like a golden age. "Malaise" will be an improvement over what's coming. ****Is it odd that both men came to the office with almost no experience but only the desire to run for the Presidency? Is it coincidence that both men (still) evince a contempt --even hostility-- for our allies ( e.g. Israel and the U.K.) and an inordinate fondness for our enemies? The "Misery Index" was invented for the Carter years ( the sum of inflation and the unemployment rate ); as inevitable inflation takes hold ( after the deflationary recession ) due to profligate spending and borrowing, the MI will reach new heights. ****
