Have hypocrisy; will travel

The first go to blog that I read is Pandagon. I will even go so far as to admit that I sometimes skip over posts to read Amanda's, but I swear I come back and read the others.
Amanda's insight, wit, intelligence and humour are unmatched in the blogesphere and it is not surprising that she was asked to work on the John Edwards presidential campaign as a commentator.

However, a certain group has taken quite an interest in Amanda's new employment. It seems as though because Amanda can be salty in her prose, the right-wing movement has gone completely apeshit. These folks are all up in arms because of Pandagon's frequent use of the word fuck. Additionally, because Amanda wrote this:

[...] For awhile, I had to listen to how the poor dear lacrosse players at Duke are being persecuted just because they held someone down and fucked her against her will--not rape, of course, because the charges have been thrown out. Can’t a few white boys sexually assault a black woman anymore without people getting all wound up about it? So unfair,” [...]

....she has been raked over the fucking coals. This debacle has been going on for days and it was started by William Donohue-President of the Catholic League. Keep in mind this is the same William Donohue who has said such charming things as:

"The gay community has yet to apologize to straight people for all the damage that they have done." [MSNBC's Scarborough Country, 4/11/05]

and

Addressing former Rep. Mark Foley (R-FL) in a press release, Donohue said: "[W]hy didn't you just smack the clergyman in the face? After all, most 15-year-old teenage boys wouldn't allow themselves to be molested. So why did you?" [10/4/06]

and

"People don't trust the Muslims when it comes to liberty." [MSNBC's Scarborough Country, 2/9/06]

and who could forget:

[...]And I'm not afraid to say it. ... Hollywood likes anal sex. They like to see the public square without nativity scenes. I like families. I like children. They like abortions. I believe in traditional values and restraint. They believe in libertinism. We have nothing in common. But you know what? The culture war has been ongoing for a long time. Their side has lost." [MSNBC's Scarborough Country, 12/8/04]

So you know you are dealing with a full deck here and can see the glaring hypocrisy that is synonymous with the right wing camp.
Anyway- as of today Edwards did the right thing and did not fire them, and I gotta admit, I like that in a person.
