Jimmy’s Greatest Hits

My previous post about Jimmy Carter provoked a medium-length discussion thread. So here’s my favorite sentence from his new book:

[Rosalyn and I] have been amazed at the response of people to these new latrines, especially in Ethiopia, and to learn that the primary thrust for building them has come from women.

Supply your own punchline.

Carter, latrines, women, and primary thrust? You only need add in "lust in my heart" and it’s the world’s perfect political joke!

Yes, I think you’ve been clear that you don’t like Jimmy Carter. Sort of hard to make much of that snippet from his book without the surrounding context except, of course, to make some sophomoric joke.

Give it up on Carter already, he’s been out of office for almost 25 years!!!
