Leftist sends himself up

In response to my post "More Leftist Hate Speech" on STACLU (also posted here yesterday), a commenter who identified himself only as "CS" (and who also gave a false email address) left the following two comments:

Does anyone actually buy into this wannabe propoganda site? "You see, in fact, the left is a bunch of white hating elitists." Give me a break. What a bunch of poorly thought-out nonsense!

I mean seriously, look at the level of intellect you spark with your commentors- Golden Phoenix-- "Liberals are a bunch of crazy wackos their out of their minds." Are you TRYING to make conservatives look like a bunch of illiterate, dull-witted morons? Take an English class you dolt! And quit listening to this simplistic right-wing garbage. It's rotting your brain quicker than your steady diet of McDonalds and diet soda. No wonder the world is laughing at us.

Sadly, Jay (the owner of the site) seems to have deleted both comments -- presumably on the reasonable ground that they were mere abuse. The comments amused me though. You note that CS criticizes conservative commenter Golden Phoenix for bad spelling. But our Leftist himself is a bad speller. Look at how he spelled "propaganda" and "commenter"!

And in fine Leftist style he misrepresents what I said as "the left is a bunch of white hating elitists". I said no such thing. I said that they hate POOR whites. And, as for being elitists, he could spend many happy hours trawling through the archives of this site.

And of course we have exactly the stereotyping in his comment that I was pointing out -- stereotyping that would be roundly condemnned if a conservative uttered it: Conservatives are people who live on a "steady diet of McDonalds and diet soda".
