Oh, this is going to be balanced. When is "Blue State" coming? I'm sure Michelle Malkin has some good ideas for potential models for that one.

Smith told us he’s in the middle of writing a comedy to shoot in the winter. “It takes place in the middle of winter in Minnesota.

Maybe that picture will be called Blue State, and a comedy at best, wishful thinking.

I agree that the Phelps clan is rather scary, but to associate all Red States as being as messed up as them, thats just wrong.

I think MANY Red State theaters won’t be carrying this movie.

Any publicity is good publicity.

As a Kevin Smith fan I have to say that this will be the first one of his movies that the critics will LOVE, and the first I will refuse to even see.

Once really funny guy who was tolerably preachy jumps the shark.

So much for "Silent Bob".

Snoochy Bootches, Bickety-Bam, we'll miss you, bro.

From Wikipedia:

“Phelps has run in various Kansas Democratic Party primaries five times, but has never won. These included races for governor in 1990, 1994, and 1998, receiving about 15% of the vote in 1998.[30]

Support for Al Gore
Phelps supported Al Gore in the 1988 Democratic Party primary election.[31] In his 1984 Senate race, Gore opposed a “gay bill of rights” and stated that homosexuality was not something that “society should affirm”.[32] Phelps has stated that he supported Gore because of these earlier comments.[33] According to Phelps, members of the Westboro Baptist Church helped run Gore’s 1988 campaign in Kansas. Phelps’ son, Fred Phelps Jr., hosted a Gore fundraiser, which Al and Tipper Gore attended, at his home in Topeka.[9][33] Fred Phelps, Jr. served as a Gore delegate to the 1988 Democratic National Convention.[33][34] Gore spokesman Dag Vega declined to comment; “We are not dignifying those stories with a response.”[35]

I guess the snotty elitist leftists are just going to keep pushing until something blows.

For the record, Fred Phelps is a vile racist DEMOCRAT.

He had run for political office as a Democrat several times (without national media attention nor rebuke from the DNC).

He "was" friends with Sen. Al Gore Jr. until Phelps' comments and Gore's rising star as VP made such publicly acknowledged friendship "uncomfortable".

I suspect that Fred Phelps and his family (who are the primary group who make up his 'church') do so strictly out of smearing "conservative" Christians. Certainly in the press AND in politics Phelps is wrongly painted to be a Republican.

And this article does more to spread the Big Lie. Goebbels would be proud.
