Peacemaker

By Baxter

Well, he made it! Today is Jimmy Carter's 100th birthday, and he's here with all of us to celebrate it. According to Jason Carter, his grandfather Jimmy is excited about voting for Kamala Harris for President, and intends to stick around in order to do so. It's good to have goals. (And good for Dark Brandon for giving him this one.)

Meanwhile, the tributes are all over the interwebs, and no doubt pouring into The Carter Center. He's earned them — including, we can't help thinking, some famous words of his old 1980 Democratic nemesis, Ted Kennedy. He's a "good and decent man who saw wrong and tried to right it, saw suffering and tried to heal it, saw war and tried to stop it." We cats PURR.
