This morning was very different from most of my mornings, and I wanted to share my epiphany with everyone.
While checking the weather on my phone I nearly fell over when I saw that Hell had finally frozen over. Yep, you read that right.
After double checking, I broke out my computer and began typing. And here are the results:
In 1976, James Earl Carter was
elected to the office of President of the
Number two and number one, respectively |
If you’re not old enough to recall his four-years in office – he ran for re-election but was denied in favor of Ronald Wilson Reagan – Carter’s term was dismal, perhaps even dreadful.
He proved that just because someone is smart in one admired field, they are not necessarily smart in every field.
Commander-in-Chief Carter entered office with his eyes on energy by creating the Department of Energy. He also showed his liberal mettle by pardoning all Vietnam War draft dodgers on his second day in office, in line with other America-haters.
Carter knew little about the economy and ignored all help to straighten his train wreck of an economy out. To prove his economic ignorance, Carter, in 1977, stated our ‘energy crisis’ was the “moral equivalent of war.”
To punish fossil fuel users – which was everyone in the country – he imposed a series of measures meant to stifle Americans’ energy use, including imposing a tax, restricting interstate sales of gasoline, gas rationing, and ordering citizens not to hang Christmas lights.
Gas prices rose from roughly 35¢ per gallon to over $1.10 per gallon. Government buildings were forced to cut off hot water in an effort to save energy, and homeowners were ordered to alter thermostats to further reduce our reliance on foreign energy. Sound familiar?
People ceased driving, consumer prices skyrocketed, gasoline lines formed, shoppers stopped buying, and a malaise across the nation set in.
Unapologetic, Carter’s hubris kept him falsely proud during such desperate times, almost encouraging voters to select Ronald Reagan as our 40th President, in 1980, in search of hope for the future.
It took four decades for the
Democrat Party to find a suitable replacement for the man known as “The Worst
President in
Closely paralleling Carter’s bleak playbook, Biden has proved to be equally hapless with similar boneheaded policies: eliminating fossil fuels, taxing Americans into buying electric cars, catering to foreign leaders, rubbing citizen’s noses in personal success, and discouraging American greatness, all in the name of the climate.
Tone-deaf to the pleas and cries of the disadvantaged, both Carter and Biden smugly ignored any possibility of helping their taxpayers make ends meet, all in the name of foreign compliance.
But to be fair, it should be
mentioned that after setting the
Biden, on the other hand, has no experience in the real world. He never held a job other than sucking on the guvment teat, since he entered public service in 1973; he has nowhere to go after the presidency.
Not needing to contend with the financial costs of transportation, housing, postage, meals, health care, hiring, making payroll, or the cost-of-living, in general, Biden hasn’t a clue how Americans are suffering under his arrogant regime.
Eating chocolate chocolate ice cream cones in front of television cameras, while wearing a stupid grin, only add insult to injury as those reasonable gasoline prices hover in the $5 range, lunchmeats are in the lofty $10/pound arena, and the average family now needs an additional $500 per month just to break even.
Zombie-like Biden has been shuffling about the world in a clearly incomprehensible display of weakness, begging and pleading with questionable foreign leaders to placate climate change hysterics, as well as redefining the word “recession.”
It’s time to stop the lies and
begin pointing
And that’s déjà vu.
