Who will go first - Jimmy or Rosalynn?

They will go together - probably within weeks of each other.

I imagine if you live to be 115 or however old she is, you should EXPECT dementia and not even require a goddamn diagnosis of it

I love these two so much, and I feel so awful for them and their family.

If there's anyone who doesn't deserve this kind of agony, it's the Carters.

I met them at a Los Angeles Habit for Humanity event in the mid-90s I worked. The Carters made sure to meet and shake hands with all the volunteers to thank us for our time.

Are they still fucking?

Yes, R7, but not each other. Jimmy stopped lusting just in his heart.

Attention MAGAts and Trump and DeSantis fanbois/fangurlinas and other dirtball scumbag Republicans:

Pull up a chair and learn something about class and dignity, of which you clowns know absolutely nothing.

I used to see her shopping along the streets and going into the Windsor Hotel in Americus, GA back in the 80s and 90s.

It's "Rosalynn." Not that it matters because pretty soon she'll forget how to spell it herself.

What a load of nonsense. She's perfectly fine and sharp as ever. She and I just got back from rock climbing in Yellowstone with Beverly Sills. Then we were whisked home by Tip O'Neill in his brand new autogyro.

Jimmy Carter did so many good works after leaving office, he's a wonderful person.

They have been married since 1946, 78 years in July.

^ Oops, 77 years!

Isn’t she like a hundred years old? Nobody that age has an intact mind.

One thing that struck me at the Carter Museum was that the outfits they had of hers (wedding dress, inaugural gown, some other snazzy event dress, were 100% stylish today. You can't say that of everything from the 40's and certainly not the 70's

How old is Shirley McClaine?

by Anonymousreply 22May 30, 2023 9:38 PM

I read she will be staying in their home, with Jimmy. I would guess the nurses attending him, agreed to this.

Dear God.

Let me take a nice little pill at around 75 when everything starts going to shit.

Didn't the Bushes go within a few months of each other?
