the crux of this issue is fairly straightforward, seems to me.
You wrote some pretty provocative stuff over on Pendagon. If you had been willing to stand up tall for all of it, and really take on the right-wing grease-bags and religious cultists who didn't like what you wrote...then the story is over and you might still be working for Edwards.
I can understand why you resigned...it's hard to withstand the kind of barrage you received..
but, good god, what did you expect? You write stuff like that, you think people like Donohue and his ilk are going to just roll over? Nope. They're gonna fight much dirtier than you ever would. That's their style.
I gotta tell ya, though, if you thought no-one would be offended by the kind of stuff you were writing, you were being a little naive, doncha think?
Remember, most wing-nuts have no sense of humor, especially about themselves.. and religious cultists are even worse.
