Demand that Powerline blogger "Hindrocket" apologize to Jimmy Carter

[johnfunk]

Here's the story from Matthew Yglesias:

... the increasingly influential Power Line blog thinks "Jimmy Carter isn't just misguided or ill-informed. He's on the other side," I think that's clearly right. Jimmy Carter left office as one of the least-loved presidents ever, and you'd still be hard-pressed to find a liberal who'll mount a really full-throated defense of his tenure in office. But on the other side? Not some academic or blogger or activist type, but a veteran of the United States military and a former President of the United States. On the other side. A traitor. These are serious allegations, seriously demented.

I don't think it's at all unreasonable to say that Hindrocket owes Carter a serious apology.

"Hindrocket" is one John Hinderaker. You can learn a lot about him from the capsule bio here. It might be a good idea to get a hold of this regressive Claremont Institute proto-McCarthyite and demand that he publicly apologize.

At least a couple DUers have contacted Hinderaker and gotten his administrative assistant, who told one that she "resent[s]" the calls. Ask for his voice mail.

ON EDIT: Fixed improperly rendered brackets (DUer HTML hint: type "[" and "]" to create brackets!

2. Hinderaker sounds like a typical Chickenhawk

Funny how the link lists his DIRECT phone number... :evilgrin:

4. Kick! Better yet, 'kick' libel artist "Assrocket" by contacting him!

Drop him a line at the Powersmear Blog and tell him to apologize to President Carter.
