So Peter Kinder Tweeted About An "Astonishing Explosion Of Lefty Jew Hatred" Today

So Hearst columnist Helen Thomas said some very stupid and reprehensible things about Israelis, and she abruptly "resigned" from her position today.  In response, the highest-ranking Republican in the state of Missouri decided to tweet about "great prevalence of virulent anti-Semitism from the Left" and got in a Twitter fight with a progressive activist from St. Louis named Patricia Bynes about the alleged existence of widespread "lefty Jew hatred" in America.  

All of the following are very real tweets from @PeterKinder published in the last twenty-four hours:

  • Sunday, 7:53pm: #HelenThomas despicable, hate-filled outburst illustrates an important point: great prevalence of virulent anti-Semitism from the Left #pdk
  • Monday, 9:23am:  @Patricialicious THE big trend of last decade: explosion of anti-semitism from the Left and left-wing academics. Evangelicals defend Israel
  • Monday, 2:23pm: @Patricialicious totally different. One is smear; other -- rampant anti-semitism from the campus Left -- an indisputable, demonstrable fact
  • Monday, 4:19pm: @Patricialicious where DID u learn ur logic?! The fact that some of my lefty pals - such as 1 I visited in prison today - aren't ... (Cont)
  • Monday, 4:23pm: ... Anti-Semites does quite simply NOTHING 2 refute the astonishing explosion of lefty Jew hatred. Conservatives stoutly defend Israel, Jews

I'll confess that I was completely ignorant of all this "lefty Jew hatred" before today.  I also had no idea that "the astonishing explosion of lefty Jew hatred" was "THE big trend of last decade."  But I'm not as smart or as well-adjusted as our Lieutenant Governor, it seems. 

It really is too bad that Peter Kinder isn't in charge of more stuff.
