Thanks for mention of Jimmy Carter. Boy, what a mistake he made in his innagural address:

"Our material resources, great as they are, are limited. Our problems are too complex for simple slogans or for quick solutions. We cannot solve them without effort and sacrifice. Walter Lippmann once reminded us, 'You took the good things for granted. Now you must earn them again. For every right that you cherish, you have a duty which you must fulfill. For every good which you wish to preserve, you will have to sacrifice your comfort and your ease. There is nothing for nothing any longer.'"

On the other foot, in spite of being in a war, Americans are asked to sacrifice nothing. Yay W!

I fear I'm getting too political here. Apologies in advance.
