Serving the Left's Interests

John Hinderaker, senior blogger at Power Line, asks the question "What is the difference between neo-Nazis and Communists?" Why is the press obsessed with the former and not the latter? I think you'll find his answer interesting.

It seems blindingly obvious that the answer is: hyping neo-Nazis became an opportunity to serve the Left’s interests in January of this year, based on leftists’ more or less insane association between neo-Nazis and American conservatives, while hyping the American Communist Party does not–and will not at any time in the future–serve the Left’s interests. That is the difference.

Particularly since there are many more Communists than neo-Nazis in the U.S., and have been for the last century.
