Question:
What about the disaster known on the Left as President Carter? It's my understanding that he made them almost as nervous as he made the Americans.
I don’t know. I don’t know what Russians thought about Carter. I couldn’t watch it, it was the Communist era in Russia, and a different era in the US. I have no interest in researching Carter.
I think it is beyond historical left-right partisanship, I hope you noticed that I noticed that even Clinton was acting as a POTUS even when impeached. A Left may be a Left because he is misinformed or uninformed. Some good friends of mine are liberals and good people at the same time. I hope you noticed my critics of Bush’s approach to Russia and stimulus. But no decent person in the position of the SOTUS would go to a foreign PM and initiate a conversation about (how bad was) his predecessor (also while being even worse). This is about the baboon giggling at ‘traditional’ Putin’s jokes, and taking the place of the POTUS.
a sample of the 'traditional" jokes:

The French press leaked out that Putin wanted Georgian President Saakashvili to be hanged by the balls but Sarkozy was so great that he talked Putin out of this action (goingto the capital of Georgia and taking the criminal down as Bush took Sadam)
In Russia Putin answers direct calls, so you can call him from the US and ask any questions.
So the caller asks – is it true that you wished to hung Saakashvili by A certain part of the body (avoiding saying by ballS)? Putin answers question with a question, -‘ Why by A part? ‘ (meaning that Saakashvili has 2 balls.) [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jP1ZzcSjlDA"]YouTube - Putin about Saakashvili's balls[/ame]

And I don’t see how he makes Russians nervous. Putin has no nerves. As all Russians he is quite sentimental, but in a fight he has no nerves. This is the proof of the both qualities. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdXwu2MXR_s"]YouTube - Putin Judo[/ame]

Putin Warns US About Socialism
‘’In the 20th century, the Soviet Union made the state's role absolute. In the long run, this made the Soviet economy totally uncompetitive. This lesson cost us dearly. I am sure nobody wants to see it repeated.
Nor should we turn a blind eye to the fact that the spirit of free enterprise, including the principle of personal responsibility of businesspeople, investors and shareholders for their decisions, is being eroded in the last few months. There is no reason to believe that we can achieve better results by shifting responsibility onto the state.
And one more point: anti-crisis measures should not escalate into financial populism and a refusal to implement responsible macroeconomic policies. The unjustified swelling of the budgetary deficit and the accumulation of public debts are just as destructive as adventurous stock-jobbing.’’
