Brother was the black sheep. I wonder how much Billy made from Billy Beer.
RIP Jimmy Carter

Probably not as much as he could have if he hadn't publicly stated that he still drank PBR at home.
For those of you that fly a flag, it should be half staff until 28 January. 30 days is the protocol for Presidents.
His funeral will be the 9th:
Jimmy Carter's state funeral to be held Jan. 9 at Washington National Cathedral
The funeral for former President Jimmy Carter, who died on Sunday at the age of 100, will be held on Jan. 9 at Washington National Cathedral.abcnews.go.com
Saw that. Never miss a chance to take a dump on a traditional recognition of a deceased President, I guess.
The flags were at half staff for Nixon’s 1973 inauguration. Truman died the day after Christmas 1972. LBJ died two days after the inauguration so all together the flags were at half staff for nearly 60 straight days.

Hats off to Abbott, I am not offended by raising the Flags to honor the Messiah!
Just another step in the attempt to remove decency from our national dialogue.
This seems like a very unimportant thing. I'm guessing 99% of the population didn't even know about this tradition.
I think we act too much like former Presidents are former monarchs or something. For example, I don't think anyone should be called President but the sitting one.
I'm sure it's more important to guys like Aloha. I'm certainly not losing sleep over it. But Abbott made a choice. Between acting, and not acting, he chose to act, when not acting would have been the decent choice.
Decency went out the window years ago. Ironic that that's confirmed by disrespecting our most decent President.
Biden’s a bad guy. He doesn’t deserve a lick of respect. Same holds true for trump. Clearly. They occupy these roles to sate their narcissism. I can’t imagine raising or lowering a flag for either of them. I wouldn’t for W etc either. Generally agree with brad on presidents
