I saw the pictures of him at the funeral. Sadly he's days away from buying the peanut farm.

He doesn't look good but as someone said he has parlayed his abysmal time in office into, "....the greatest second act ever". A big heart but that alone doesn't make great leaders.

He was with his wife for more than 75 years. It is not uncommon for a spouse to pass soon after the other one does.

Does anyone else remember when his worm farm carried an ad in the back of Popular Science magazine? It sounds like he’s about ready to rejoin his little friends. Lousy president but he was a great human being.

I thought that Carter was the worst President until biden showed up.

Quite different tho. Carter saved his best work for after the presidency and biden ****ed the country for 40 years before his “presidency.”

He doesn't look good, but at that age its hard not to look bad.

I don't want to be here that long.

A life well lived and Jimmy did live long enough to see himself move up one rung from the lowest on the "worst President" rankings starting in 2020....

He's more coherent than Joe Biden.

Responsible for many/most of the problems in the middle east today..

The man is 100 years old; is it realistic to expect him to live forever? You guys remind me of a TV show called "Autopsy" where the doctor performs autopsies on people in their 90s and looks for the reason why they passed away.

I still have a Billy beer from that era - just one though, my @hole bro-in-law drank the other 5 out of the 6 pack decades ago in a stupor. Did I mention he is an @hole ?

Tell him

Upon meeting you, it was clear you were an asshole. And here you are, 20 years later.

I heard he was at deaths door back in the summer. Now that his wife is gone, he won’t be far behind. In marriages that last that long, once one passes, the other grieves to death.

The comments here offer a great opportunity to compare a great human being and lousy president (Carter) to a questionable human being (not my opinion) but a great president (Trump)

I'm not sure which legacy I'd prefer to have for my own, but I know which one would benefit the most people.

They Move Jimmy's Casket in to the Basement of the Rotunda Holi-dome so they can set up for today's New Reinstatement of the Grand Puba Ceremony ?

Biden is still having long conversations with Jimmy. And Jackie and the invisible rabbit as he shakes their hands and signs pardons willy-nilly.

I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand

I knew she would meet her connection
At her feet was her footloose man

No, you can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometime you'll find
You get what you need

The Barn Boys went to the Rotunda Holi~dome for the Inauguration
To get THIER fair share of abuse
Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration
If we don't we're gonna blow a fifty-amp fuse"

Sing it to me, honey
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes, well, you just might find
You get what you need
Ah baby, yeah
Ah

I went down ON Chelsea's C at the drugstore
To get our prescriptions filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And, man, did he look pretty ill

We decided that we would have an Ice Cream Cone
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"

I said to him
You can't always get what you want, well no
You can't always get what you want. I tell you, baby
You can't always get what you want, no
But if you try sometimes you just might find, uh, mm
You get what you need, oh yeah, woo!
Ah, woo!
You get what you need, yeah, oh baby
