13. President Carter tried to pull us out of malaise

he was giving a pep talk when he used the word "malaise".
Unlike Raygun however, he wasn't a professional actor, so the speech didn't work, and the repugs pounced on the word "malaise" to define Carter.

The Disaster Monkey has inflicted a case of internal bleeding so severe it may ultimately prove fatal to the republic.

16. President Carter never used the word malaise.

Oh what a better world we would have if we all had only listened to Carter rather than listen to Reagan and his ilk mocking him.

but what bush is doing is heartbreaking. What he has done is taken the trust of the good people of the United States and and used it to advance his twisted evil plan for global conquest. He has broken what could not be broken. He has broken Excalibur (the heart of America) and looted Camelot.
