Really, any democrat with such a record would be treated by the Republicans as the second coming of Jimmy Carter..

Ouch, okay... I agree there are some serious shortcomings, but, I think jimmy carter would still have done worse...

Here's a short list for starters:

1) sadam insane would still be murdering and torturing his own people,
2) sadam insane would have invaded more than three of his neighbors,
3) we would have had numerous terrorist attacks on our own land, these attacks would dwarf the 9/11 attack,
4) carter would have completely eliminated the immigration department and created completely open borders,
5) crude oil would cost $180 per barrel and not $70 per barrel,
6) long lines at the gas pump,
7) inflation at 22% and soaring,
8) even bigger deficits,
9) more wasteful spending on frivolous government handouts,
10) the U.S. military would be completely disbanded and all military bases closed down,
11) V.A. hospitals closed down,
12) all municipal emergency medical services bankrupt,
13) Israel would no longer exist,
14) American women would be required to wear burkas,
15) global warming would become the official religion of this country,
16) speaking English in public would be outlawed...

These are just a few of the things I would have expected with carter, or with most any democrat running today... it would not be a pretty picture, and don't think it can't happen...
