I somehow missed this Matthew Yglesias post yesterday, but it's more than worth going back for:
I'd be interested in hearing the views of the "responsible" right out there. Power Line is not an obscure site by any means. Indeed, it's become one of the most prominent nodes in the conservative blogosphere. Do others out there think Jimmy Carter is on the other side? Working in league with Osama bin Laden and others who seek the mass murder of American citizens? Or is this more the sort of situation where an increasingly shrill and hysterical right-wing has, despite its monopoly on political power in this country, chosen to adopt a bizarre paranoid worldview in which the fact that many people (including almost half of the American population and an absolute majority of the citizens of the world) think it's policies are misguided is equivalent to the existence of a vast global conspiracy to advance the jihad?
That's a good question. And one that our friends on the right really do need to answer.

When I see Carter sitting next to Rotundo Moore, after years... decades, in fact of him being the cheering section for every far-left org one can name and being an 'official' in the doing (such as elections hrowing, otherwise known, laughingly as 'election mnitoring', and when I see him arguing against every positive thing we've done internationally and domestically for the last two decades... most recently Iraq... it's all I need to raise serious doubts in my mind if Hindrocet doesn't have a serious point.
Tell me, how many have equated Bush with Hitler on far less than what we've seen of Carter?
