proving that all they do is about publicity.

they could not possibly have any gripe with the Amish.....not gay, not fighting in Iraq.

they are so stupid they are ridiculous.

Here's the latest.

I suppose his intentions were good, but nothing they will have to say is worthy of the air time they'll take up.

I dunno if I like giving them the podium or not, but I am happy they will not be desecrating the funerals of those poor children and causing more pain to their families.

I've read in previous threads that Westboro is actually on the payroll of the left so as to provide "guilt by association" against any maintream profamily, anti gay agenda folks, like FReepers.

Is it un-Christian-like to pray that these evil jerks get erased from the Earth by a tornado or severe lightning strike or flood or bus accident or Africanized bees or wild dogs or a plague of locusts, frogs, and boils or .....?

What a disgusting group of people. Fred Phelps and his crowd deserve to rot in hell and I fully expect them to.

Sick scum,enemies of Christ.Since the whole country is focused on this tragedy it's almost a shame they won't protest.Then the entire country would know them for the sick twisted freaks that they are.When the country was incenced,then maybe something would get done about these vermin.

So he gives them a podium. Who cares. No one will watch the show that night anyway and those that do will only hate these pathetic people even more.

Thanks Mike: Sorry but I pass on that show. Maybe some other time, I think you did the right thing.

Why dont you be sure you have some Zim Zam water there in case they get thirsty.

"Then the entire country would know them for the sick twisted freaks that they are."

I think everyone has already caught on to them. I don't care whose funeral it is, protesting a funeral is immoral and disgusting.

The good Rev. Phelps is a disbarred lawyer, the conventional wisdom says they're in it for $$$$. Since his congregation is mostly his own family, and most of them are lawyers, they sue for civil rights violations when their permits are denied or when physical confrontations occur at the protests.

They've already sued for several hundred thousand dollars. They have nothing to do with legitimate protest or religion.

Hannity and Colmes had some member from this so-called "Westboro Baptist Church" on their show this evening. An ugly looking hag who seemed completely out of her mind.

Mike should turn the transmitter down to 1.5 watts and go for lunch.

It's a good thing to do considering the circumstances. I hope these freaks don't gain any more incentive to this **** in the future from it.

I heard that this afternoon and the church lady emphasised "at the funeral". So I immediately thought that they might pull a fast one and still show up perhaps along the roadsides.
