Top Media Turn Edwards' Shrill Blogger Into Political Martyr

Amanda Marcotte, one of two vitriol-spewing anti-Christian bloggers hired by the John Edwards presidential campaign, resigned on February 12, 2007.

Liberal media reported that Marcotte was "driven out" of her job by Catholic League President Bill Donohue. Last week, Donohue issued a press release detailing some of Marcotte's anti-Christian bigotry. Fox commentator Bill O'Reilly also gave the story lots of airtime. Donohue also called for Edwards to fire the other anti-Christian blogger, Melissa McEwan, who infamously referred to President Bush's "wing-nut Christofascist base" in a blog entry. (McEwan reportedly resigned on Feb. 13.)

I agree...whenever a conservative "has an error in judgment", the Liberal left crucifies them...but let one of their own stick their foot in their mouth, then if they don't out-&-out applaud them, they at least give them a pass.

I wish out side would come out swinging, sometimes!

Marcotte and MacEwan are like all too many liberals. They believe they have the right to say anything they wish, but also believe no one has the right to criticize them. Until they're able to take it, they shouldn't dish it out.
