The explosion of hatred toward the late Rev. Jerry Falwell on the left is truly appalling. It is documented in excruciating terms in this article on the Newsbusters site.

I’ll provide just one representative sample of this revolting manifestation of the blatant evilness of the modern left, as reported in the Newsbusters article:

John Edward’s former campaign blogger Amanda Marcotte at Pandagon:

The gates of hell swing open and Satan welcomes his beloved son

No word yet on whether or not that position is shared by John and Elizabeth Edwards campaign, or how Edward’s staff will spin this into a fundraising opportunity.

Can you imagine the firestorm of denunciation if people on the right said things like this?

Remember what happened to Tim Hardaway and Don Imus for far milder comments? 

I call upon Time magazine, Newsweek, the New York Times, Washington Post, ABC News, NBC News, CBS News, CNN, the New Republic, and all other left-of-center major newspapers, magazines, and media outlets to report on this and repudiate it, just as they would if the right said these things about someone on the left.
