Did Matthew Yglesias Just Insinuate that Senator Jim DeMint is a Communist ?

He wrote

"DeMint ... confuses Nazis and Social Democrats ... Communists ... maintaining that there was no difference between the two"

Look I don't like him much either but I totally disagree with Yglesias's assertion that he is a communist.

If I were a communist and aimed to destroy the Republican party I would not act like Senator DeMint at all ... uh wellllll hummmmm

OK OK I admit it. Yglesias is right, he must be a communist. No one could do so much to discredit conservatism by accident.
