Announcefisking of Amandagon
Posted by spacemonkey at 12:45 PM | View blog reactions | Comments (13)

From here:

I was hired by the Edwards campaign
But not fired, they were willing to keep you due to whatever passes for wisdom among preening sissyboys these days.
for the skills and talents
Unnamed skills and talents I guess. Herding cats? Stringing anti-Christian epithets using 4 letter words is a skill and talent? DU and dKos have a lot of skilled and talented people too, then.
I bring to the table
As long as you're bringing things to the table, Fetch my supper!
, and my willingness to work hard for what’s right.
I thought there were only shades of gray. OK you were fighting for YOUR shade of gray.

[more below the fold]

Unfortunately, Bill Donohue and his calvacade of right wing shills don’t respect that a mere woman like me could be hired for my skills,
They'd never let someone as skilled and talented as you run out the door, either.
and pretended that John Edwards had to be held accountable for some of my personal, non-mainstream views on religious influence on politics
Nah, hiring foul-mouth idiots like you made him seem like he had bad judgment. Keeping you simply confirmed it.
(I’m anti-theocracy, for those who were keeping track )
Did we alI somehow miss all the anti-Islamofacist(read islamic anti-theocratic) satire, that would have made you seem less purely anti-Christian, checking, nope we didn't miss 'em.
. Bill Donohue—anti-Semite,
Aren't you anti-semite too? What with being anti-religion and all.
right wing lackey whose entire job
Seemed more like a hobby than a job, a hobby you enjoy the pay is just gravy.
is to create non-controversies
Non-controversies certainly not worth quitting over.
in order to derail liberal politics
I thought they were self-derailing
—has been running a scorched earth campaign
Do you even know what that means?
to get me fired for my personal beliefs and my writings on this blog.
And that didn't work, you'll keep this job forever. You sure showed him! HAH!

In fact, he’s made no bones about the fact that his intent is to “silence” me, as if he—a perfect stranger

I miss that show. Bronson Pinchot rulz!
—should have a right to curtail my freedom of speech.
The 1st amendment speaks of Congress not curtailing freedom of speech, not Bill Donohue
Why? Because I’m a woman? Because I’m pro-choice? Because I’m not religious? All of the above, it seems.
You forgot D) Because you are a foulmouthed bee-yotch.

Regardless, it was creating a situation where I felt that every time I coughed, I was risking the Edwards campaign.

They sell cough drops, in the Carolinas, you know. But I think I understand, to paraphrase Spock in "Mirror, Mirror", "It is easier for civilized people to behave as barbarians than it was for you as a barbarian to behave as a civilized person."
No matter what you think about the campaign, I signed on to be a supporter and a tireless employee
You'll be with them to them end no doubt, the fiery crashfilled end..
for them, and if I can’t do the job I was hired to do
WHAT?!?!?!? I thought you had skills and talents!, Did Bill Donohue steal them? Were you missing nun chuck skills?
because Bill Donohue doesn’t have anything better to do with his time than harass me, then I won’t do it. I resigned my position today
Quitter's never win and winners never quit, you quitter. You're just lucky they'd never accept it.
and they accepted.
WAITAMINUTE, WAITAMINUTE though they needed those skills and talents you brought to the table. Not so much I guess. Did you forget to fetch supper?

There is good news.

You figured out the Geico.com website?
The main good news is that I don’t have a conflict of interest issue anymore that was preventing me from defending myself against these baseless accusations.
Accusations SOOOOOO overwhelmingly baseless you quit the job everyone was trying to get you fired from. an interesting strategy.
So it’s on. The other good news is that the blogosphere has risen as one and protested, loudly,
And got you to quit!, You quitter you.
the influence a handful of well-financed right wing shills have on the public discourse.
Now I a bit confiued, so you didn't quit?

Bill Donohue doesn’t speak for Catholics,

Yeah most Catholics as I understand, are violently anti-Catholic
he speaks for the right wing noise machine. You guys pointed this out, you made a stink,
If it was a bigger stink than usual, I'm glad I didn't have to smell it
you refused to walk into the same stupid trap that is laid out for liberals and Democrats by the right wing noise machine and I think you made a difference. While loyalty played into the pushback some, the real story is that we liberals are not taking this crap any longer and we’re pushing back.
And we'll quit for no particular good reason!
And now that I’m attached to only myself again,
OK that's a visual I could have done without
I’m ready and eager to join in the pushing back with you.
Quitters UNITE!
Like Lorraine say, Jesus did not say to shut your piehole.
I thought you weren't religious. What do you care what Jesus said or didn't say? Anyway the gospels aren't exhaustive, he could have said something similar.

Obviously, I’m scatterbrained right now.

Obviously, but tell the truth, its always "right now" with you, isn't it?. And not because you are a woman, pro-choice and not religious either.
But I’ll be raring to go soon.
Cuz when the going gets tough the tough get going! Going home to whine.
In the meantime, I want to share this letter Evan got from Frances Kissling, the president of an organization I adore called Catholics for a Free Choice.
Catholics hating Catholicism, what's NOT to adore?
She wrote a letter defending free discourse and her religion from being hijacked by the likes of Bill Donohue and other people who dress their reactionary politics up in faith’s clothing.
Yeah, Bill Donohue and his ilk THEY'RE the ones that need a good "silencing", not you. Of course the "silencing" will be performed in a non-freedom-of-speech-infringing sort of way.
She sent it to the NY Times, and for some reason they didn’t run it.
I guess she should have padded it with something that would have damaged national security.

To sum things up, she didn't get FIRED because of pressure from right wing shills, lackeys and noise machines, she QUIT because of pressure from right wing shills, lackeys and noise machines. A big difference there, because this way, she still has her dignity.

I wonder if she keeps her dignity in her Godbag..

OMGosh I can't believe how many morons are writing apologies to this whiner!!! She's bitchin' because this Donohue guy is railing on her, and I'm wondering if she's so convinced about what she believes in WHY DOES SHE EVEN CARE WHAT HE SAYS?!?!? If she had any courage in her convictions she wouldn't let what this guy thinks budge her.

She says "At this point, I bet Bill Donohue would jump into a Wendy’s and stand on the counter and start saying, “I WILL STAND HERE BLOWING NOXIOUS FARTS UNTIL YOU FIRE THE ENTIRE STAFF.” For no reason."

I'm saying if that's all it takes to make a libtard cut and run...F-KING PASS THE BEANS AND RAID THE NEAREST DNC HQ!!!

"this way, she still has her dignity"

Um... I hate to pick nits, but wouldn't she have to have had dignity in the first place in order to "still" have it? :-)

#3 - Posted by: Harvey on February 13, 2007 03:44 PM

Seriously, this is the most awesome post that has even been on IMAO.us

Spacemonkey should be the fourth panelist on tonight's RedEye with Greg Gutfeld

#4 - Posted by: Godbags 4 Jesus on February 13, 2007 04:06 PM

LoneVoice: Sorry about the KB, but no warranties are expressed or implied.

Shimauma, Oh yes, she caved in like a overblasted mineshaft. Defeat painted as victory.

Harvey, I was trying for irony on that final line. too subtle I guess.

Godbags 4 Jesus, they won't return my calls.

#5 - Posted by: spacemonkey on February 13, 2007 04:22 PM

AAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Nice.

#6 - Posted by: LucidObscurity on February 13, 2007 05:51 PM

We need to get a keyboard with a warranty and chain spacemonkey to it!

#7 - Posted by: DohXs on February 13, 2007 08:07 PM

Wow...just...wow. Spacemonkey, you rule!!!


I am going to miss Amanda. She may not have been fertile in the sense of being "punished by carrying fetuses", fertile, but she certainly became the Mother of All Blogging Laughingstocks.

#8 - Posted by: Lily on February 13, 2007 08:11 PM

brilliant spacemonkey!

the only flaw is you missed the baseless/base joke that was just dying to be made, but I give it a 9.995!

#9 - Posted by: me on February 13, 2007 10:35 PM

That was pretty good, MonkeyMan.

On the plus side, the moonbattery will now have to decide between shouting "IT'S ALL BUSH'S FAULT!!!" with "IT'S ALL BILL DONOHUE'S FAULT!!!".

#10 - Posted by: AlanABQ on February 14, 2007 12:57 AM

yes and amen. s-monkey rules! if i could write something that clever, i'd move to Alabama myself!

#11 - Posted by: aA on February 14, 2007 02:41 PM

The real victoms here are her parents. I am sure her father was crushed to discover that she wouldn't be moving out of their basement, and his plans for a bar with pool table are aborted, so to speak ;-)

#12 - Posted by: Mike on February 14, 2007 10:04 PM

I for one am thankful that her parents were pro-life. Think of the laugh riots I would have missed! And that's not even including this post! (Though that was certainly ROFLMAO-funny as well, only deliberately so)
