[Incorrigible]

And they spelled it right!!

Welcome newcomers to FreeRepublic!

The FreeRepublic.com group was trying to counter demonstrations by the Kansas-based group, led by the Rev. Fred Phelps. He previously had organized protests against those who died of AIDS and gay murder victim Matthew Shepard. In an interview when the House passed the bill that Bush signed Monday, Phelps accused Congress of "blatantly violating" his First Amendment rights. He said that if it became law, he would continue to demonstrate but would abide by the law's restrictions.

Scum.

This legislation I support and will give credit to the President and Congress.

Heartfelt gratitude to the members here that stood against Phelps.

HIGH FIVES, D.C. FREEPERS!!!!!!!!!

[festus]

We weren't referred to as a blog. Well I've seen everything now.

Yesterday 100,000 motorcyclists rode down to the Viet nam Memorial. Its too bad they werent told Phelps would show up at arlington, I am sure a few would have hung around to greet him.

[Lancey Howard]

BUMP!

[Just A Nobody]

Bush's motorcade passed several on the way in, including a small group that held signs saying, "Thank God for dead soldiers" and "God hates fags."

It was a small group alright - 8...maybe 10. I wonder if President Bush smiled and waved to them on his way out?

Approximately 10 21 people from the Washington, D.C., chapter of FreeRepublic.com, a self-styled grass roots conservative group, stood across the road with signs supporting U.S. troops. A large sign held by several people said, "God bless our troops, defenders of freedom, American heroes."

President Bush passed up with a big smile waving the entire time.

[Just A Nobody]

DC FREEPERS made the AP wire service while honoring our heroes lost and supporting those still serving!

gay murder victim Matthew Shepard.

Didn't this guy proposition a couple of guys and they killed and robbed him? I mean how long ago was this "hate" crime??

Thank you for FR!!!

And thank you, DC FReepeers -- for putting your "boots on the ground"!

The Rev. Phelps is sick. He seems to think any one who's done military service is a born faggot. Too bad he inspired a law to get him to shut up.
