Cheap-shot politics from a Powerline blogger -- we should demand an apolo

[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.

1. Kick! Better yet, kick John "Assrocket" Hindraker by contacting him!

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

2. I agree. But it's never going to happen.
