Come On And Feel The Noise

I’m sorry that people on the left can’t recognize bigotry when they see it. ~Brian O’Dwyer

Mr. O’Dwyer was responding to the report of another MyDD hack trying to find some way to impugn the motives of liberal Christians who criticised Marcotte’s galloping Christomachy.  O’Dwyer apparently gave money to Clinton in the past (he also held a fundraiser for Edwards!), which proves that he was simply doing HRC’s bidding.  Quoth the hack:

It’s simply impossible to believe that it was anything but his loyalty to Clinton that led O’Dwyer to join in the right-wing pile-on.

Yes, if it weren’t for their devotion to Hillary pushing them on to attack poor innocent Amanda, ethnic Catholics would have no trouble with some shrill woman blaspheming against their God in the ugliest terms.  Sure, that’s it!  Keep tearing down the religious left, lefty bloggers–you are sowing more mistrust and resentment on your own side than the “noise machine” could ever manage to do.
