What would Jimmy Carter do with $500 Million?






He certainly wouldn't blow it on glorifying himself.


Not like AWOL Monkey-Boy, that useless POS.

1. A whole LOT of people who don't have houses would have one.
Can you give me some context about your post? I must have missed something in the news today.

Thanks.

3. President Chuckle Nuts began his fundraising for his "lie-burry"
today.

Lot of jack to house a bunch of books the nutsack-in-chief ain't ever read.

5. Oh, fuck me. A library with shelves full of video games.

10. actually, it'll be the antithesis of a library ...
Even shelves full of video games provide an information storage function. In Bush's case, the entire facility will consist of a bunch of shredding machines, devoted to obliterating all the secret records he doesn't want us to see. I imagine there will also be an electronics closet on the side, with software developed to use "the Google" to eradicate evidence of Bush's mistakes from the Internets -- like embarrassing YouTube videos of him accidentally blurting out truths like "They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."

9. I heard he is going to hire a bunch of people to write books about
him that are positive. I think I'll apply for the job.:sarcasm:

2. You're right. He wouldn't have Halliburton build him a library full of
books he's unable and unwilling to read.

Carter would build houses for Katrina victims with the money, of course. Carter is human.

4. And after the houses were done
he would build a library for the residents to use.

6. I don't know
what would you do with a windfall of hundreds of millions?

That should be the question, in my humble opinion.

8. Shelter the homeless, heal the sick, feed the hungry--silly stuff like that
George W. Bush, whose sense of entitlement is total, will spend his entire life in a bubble of privilege, claiming to be a Christian.

Jimmy Carter -- well, let's just say that's one Christian who walks the walk.

Thank you for your service, President Carter. :hug:

11. I bet he'd build a whole bunch of houses
I seriously doubt he'd use it for self-aggrandizement like bush.
