Shirley Phelps-Roper calls out Florida preacher for plans to burn Quran ... 'cause she did it first

By Justin Kendall, Thu., Sep. 9 2010 @ 2:00PM

Terry Jones has angered the Westboro Baptist Church....

Shirley Phelps-Roper is reportedly calling Jones a poseur. Fred Phelps' daughter told the Star that Westboro's was burning the Islamic religious text on a Washington, D.C., street back in 2008. "We did it a long time before this guy," Phelps-Roper told the Star...

"They'll browbeat him and he'll back down at the last minute," she said. "He's an apologist. He doesn't serve God."

divide and conquer.

[RummyChick]

She’s just mad because she didn’t get worldwide publicity that like the Florida man.

[Julia H.]

This just gets better and better.

I can’t believe so many people here still want to broadcast videotapes of their own backyard barbecues, thereby associating themselves with these inbred mouth-breathers.

[TribalPrincess2U]

They must have been pretty quiet about it. I never heard and besides
they still have their heads.

[earlJam]

I can’t believe so many people want to be associated with them either.

They are no better than the Code Pinkers.

If you have an iPad you can download the koran for free. I've been doing so all day. Then I delete it!

HA!

[Julia H.]

So, when did WBC change its anti-America, anti-soldier, pro-terrorism stance? When it saw all the publicity Jones was getting?

[Pontiac]

Why don’t you burn it to CD and then burn it again!

Twice the fun!

[ansel12]

Sounds like she got about as much attention for her Koran burning as Romney gets for his endorsements.

[isthisnickcool]

Then send it to the CD local ABC news station:)

[WhatNot]

This just gets better and better.

Only one thing could be more entertaining than this, an A&E's Hoarders house, being investigated by the SYFY's Ghosthunters.

[earlJam]

They are still anti-America. They just won a lawsuit allowing them to trample the flag at soldiers' funerals.

Members of the Westboro Baptist Church, Johnathan Phelps, center, of Topeka, Kan., stands on an American Flag, next to his wife Shirley Phelps-Roper, left, and their son Hezekiah Phelps, Thursday Sept. 21, 2006 in Rio Rancho, N.M., during the funeral for Spc.

Alexander Jordan, 31, who died Sept. 10 of injuries caused by enemy small-arms fire while he was conducting a mounted patrol in Baghdad.

Did you do it according to DoD 5220.22-M (overwrite with ones, then zeros, then random bits)? Sanitizing a disk that has been contaminated with the Koran is not a trivial task, you know.

“I can’t believe so many people want to be associated with them either.”

Standard Liberal personal Attack.

They are no better than the Code Pinkers.

Standard Liberal irrelevant Throw Away phrase..

No doubt designed to convince the reader that the author is a conservative with deeply held views.

One can only ask for earlJams list of public condemnations after the US Military burned privately owned Bibles translated into Pashto. A public condemnation of burning the American Flag would be nice as well.

[Ptarmigan]

I wonder if burning a CD would be offensive to certain groups.

[Julia H.]

Um, beg pardon? Do really mean to say that “real” conservatives should SUPPORT Westboro Baptist? Anti-American, flag-stomping, soldiers’-funeral-protesting, America-deserved-9/11 Westboro Baptist? Can you please explain to me how a comparison between Westboro and Code Pink is anything but spot-on?

[ansel12]

This is quite a bunch that some good people around here have aligned themselves with.

By that standard, some around here have aligned themselves with Osama Bin laden and Islam, as they defend the Koran against being burned.

[earlJam]

I don't have to defend myself to you. And you are free to align yourself with whomever you choose. I personally don't see much difference between the two.

You probably don't like this guy:

But you are ok with these people since they burned Korans:

[dfwgator]

I don’t like either one, but at the same time I won’t give them the satisfaction at being outraged by their idiotic stunts, and I won’t sacrifice our First Amendment for it either, they aren’t worth the trouble.
