McCain: “Carter Was a Lousy President”

June 27, 2008 · Filed Under Politics, U.S. News 

It looks like the ‘Straight Talk Express’ is back on track and going strong. Jon Ralston had a sit down interview with McCain yesterday and the Senator did indeed deliver some stratight talk.

McCain on Carter:

Carter was a lousy president….This is the same guy who kissed Brezhnev….

I love it when people tell the truth about Jimmy Carter. It blows my mind when Democrats say that President Bush is the worst President in history. That’s laughable when you compare Bush’s record with Carter’s. Jimmy Carter was complete disastor both in foreign policy and domestic policy.

Here’s where things stood in 1980, Carter’s last year in office, and in subsequent periods:

Carter: Interest rate, 21%. Inflation, 13.5%. Unemployment, 7%. The so-called “Misery Index,” which Carter used to great effect in his 1976 campaign to win election, 20.5%.

I think that pretty much qualifies as “lousy”
