Melissa McEwan: April 19, 2005: "Da New Pope (as Ezra would say) doesn’t like da faggots. As anyone who’s spent more than five seconds hanging around this joint knows, here at Shakespeare’s Sister, we likes da faggots, and so we don’t likes da new pope... "This gay-hating bigot was just made head of the largest network of institutionalized homophobia in the universe... "I reject this pope, I reject his church, and I reject its teachings."
It seems that on this thread it took two hundred and ninety-five posts to identify the link between the words "Edwards" and "faggot,"
which illustrates how little the dbm wrote or spoke about the offending words used by Edwards' bloggers. Ann probably thought that the audience she was addressing knew about the connection.
If Ann is 'forced' to go public with an 'apology' I hope she quotes from Edwards' bloggers' words.
