Trash-talking bigot Bill Donohue named one of world's worst people by Olbermann [VIDEO]

In the end, both John Edwards' blogger, Amanda Marcotte, and his technical advisor Melissa McEwan have resigned due to the torrent of anger and hatred unleashed by the right wing assault, led by Bill "Hollywood is Controlled by Jews" Donohue.

In some circles he's also known as Bill "What's wrong with a gook joke" Donohue.

Amanda is currently being flooded with hate mail from the misogynistic and vile:

YOU RACIST WHORE. FAT UGLY BITCH. SUCK MY LONG COCK ASSHOLE I HOPE YOU KIDS NEVER LIVE AND YOUR PARENTS DIE A TRAGIC DEATH YOU ASSHOLE BITCH!

I HOPE YOUR WOMB IS BARREN AND YOUR CAREER PLUMMETS TO HELL YOU BITCH

...to misogynistic and creepy:

Amanda,

after reading your vile screed against Catholics and the Holy Spirit, I just had to see what you looked like. (I envisioned you eyebrow-less, with no visible pupils, and a blank, dead stare.) I see I was correct about the blank, dead stare, but other than that you’re not too bad. I then thought maybe you were mad at God (and by proxy Catholics) for making you ugly, but now I’m figuring you’re just mad at him for making you a woman.
