We Are Scum

When we read the headline

RIP, Jody Powell

we had essentially the same thought as ABC NEWS Senior White House Correspondent Jake Tapper (Eeeew. What is wrong w/ us?):

Powell and the late Hamilton Jordan, Carter's chief of staff, were WH "whiz Kids" on a Rolling Stone cover in 1977. I doubt Carter thought he’d outlive both of them.

Not the part about whatever Carter may or may not have been thinking (?), but it did occur to us that Jimmy had outlived the two. So we aren't 100% scum. Really.
