Demonic_ How the Liberal Mob Is Endangering America - Ann Coulter [141]
During the revolution, one mob commander of the French Revolution, P. J. Picot-Bellac, went straight to the churches in every town he besieged in order to give mock “sermons” in which he called the Virgin Mary a “whore” and said Jesus had “scored”—using a French vulgarity—with Mary Magdalene.18
Compare that with Amanda Marcotte, blogger for the campaign of John Edwards—an apparently serious Democratic presidential candidate. She wrote, “Q: What if Mary had taken Plan B after the Lord filled her with his hot, white, sticky Holy Spirit? A: You’d have to justify your misogyny with another ancient mythology.” Another of Marcotte’s charming observations was: “[Y]ou motherf**kers who want to ban birth control will never sleep. I will f**k without making children day in and out and you will know it and you won’t be able to stop it. Toss and turn, you mean, jealous motherf**kers. I’m not going to be ‘punished’ with babies.”
After writing those gems, Marcotte was hired by Edwards—and not to sweep floors but to write for his blog, based on her earlier oeuvre. Perhaps it is not surprising that such a person as this would find work with a smarmy pro-abortion hustler, who, while he was running for president, cheated on his cancer-stricken wife with a New Age flake, got her pregnant, and then lied about it even after getting caught. Still, Edwards isn’t Dennis Department-of-Peace-guided-talking-dolphins Kucinich. He was the Democrats’ vice presidential candidate in 2004. Marcotte fits comfortably within the mainstream of the Democratic Party in America—the party of abortion, adultery, and everything bestial in society.
Key Obama adviser Bernardine Dohrn notoriously sported a button in her younger years that said, “Fellatio Is Fun, Cunnilingus Is Cool.” Dohrn, Ayers, and the other former radicals, now university professors and presidential advisers, engaged in bisexual orgies as part of their mission to “smash monogamy,” with Ayers having sex with his best male friend.19
Liberals promote sexual vulgarity to tear down values that make civilized society possible. Liberal women at American universities protest pro-life speakers by chanting, “I f—k to c–m, not to procreate!” They protest conservative speakers by shouting “Lick my cl–t!” During one act of the charmingly titled play The Vagina Monologues, written by silly liberal Eve Ensler, the audience is directed to chant in unison, “C—T! C—T! C—T!”
Liberals don’t just hate tradition and morality, they hate God. That’s not our country and that’s not our revolution.
Leading our revolutionary troops in 1776, General George Washington sent a message to the troops that said, “The blessing and protection of Heaven are at all times necessary, but especially so in times of public distress and danger. The general hopes and trusts that every officer and man will endeavor to live and act as becomes a Christian soldier, defending the dearest rights and liberties of his country.”
A few years later, in 1778, Washington directed that church services be conducted for the troops every Sunday at 11 a.m., saying of this directive, “While we are duly performing the duty of good soldiers, we certainly ought not to be inattentive to the higher duties of religion. To the distinguished character of a patriot, it should be our highest glory to add the more distinguished character of a Christian.”20
Washington’s religiosity was utterly typical of our revolutionary forebears. John Adams, second president of the United States and also a signer of the Declaration, wrote to his wife in 1775, “Statesmen may plan and speculate for liberty, but it is Religion and Morality alone which can establish the principles upon which freedom can securely stand. A patriot must be a religious man.”21 One of America’s most important founding fathers, Roger Sherman of Connecticut,
