Dude finally set off at 100.

People can banter all day about the value of his presidency and politics and what that meant fo the country short and long term but he was certainly a fantastic human being and pretty good role model of charactar. Godspeed good sir.

Learned something new today. Never heard of that small theater.
I remember that vaugley about the hostages, as I was only 9 at the time. But I do remember this Meme on an 8-1/2x11 paper my dad had.

I just read about Carters involvement in handing Rhodesia over to Mugabe and his Race Commies. Who then turned it into Zimbabwae and genocided white farms.

Fuck him.

The more I've learned about Carter since he died, the more disgusted I am.

What a c*nt.

See above
Jimmy had a good heart, but had no business in politics.
I was old enough remember his presidency. He simply didn't have good advisors. He didn't have a grasp of "the world". But he had good intentions. I truly believe he was a GOOD man and wanted to help everyone, but he had advisors that had greater ambitions which meant throwing him under the bus.
You can be disgusted, but be sure you're aiming your hatred in the right direction
 
I was assured by the best people that, "all Politicians are crooks, psychopaths, murderers and don’t care about anyone but themselves."

Glad to hear you think so highly of @BigClay :laughing:
Open discussion: all Politicians are crooks, psychopaths, murderers and don’t care about anyone but themselves.
 
I guess I need thank Prez Carter for one final act...

Some nimrod scheduled a high-profile workshop in DC next week, the 8th-10th, for a select members of our research community with members of OSD. The kind of thing where "its about technical sharing" but also "We're using this to know where to put future funding," IOW "you better be there and sound good if you don't want your program cut". We were told this on Dec 15th. Who TF would schedule such a thing right when everyone returns from vacation?

Well Jan 9th has been declared all Fed offices closed for Carter funeral.. so they had to cancel the workshop... awwww shucks.

I assume you mean January 9th, but that is super dumb. Do you still get paid for that day even though the office is closed?
Yes, woops.
and yes. we are granted "admin leave" if you were already scheduled to be working in an office. People traveling to places not a Fed office may still, but gte comp time or something.
Apparently this is a long running tradition for the death of Presidents. Trump closed the .gov for Bush Sr in 2018.
 
Y’all love wasting our money.
trust me I do not love it

In the grand scheme of wasteful things this is at the bottom of the spectrum. And sadly the things that are at the top aren't on the radar of the right people.
