Why the American Flag?

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.

Couldn’t have that pesky guy in Florida getting all the headlines, now could we, Phelps?

Another publicity hound.

Burning both because they can’t decide who they hate more. Next up, they’ll drown some puppies.

Hey, Shirley! Why don’t ya soak the flag and the Koran in gasoline. Then toss the flag over your shoulder, sort of like a Buddhist monk’s robe. Then sit crosslegged on the ground. It makes flicking your Bic easier.

Why can’t the media just ignore these guys, if they only did that, they’d go away.

That’s why Petraeus was an idiot for even mentioning these guys, all he did was to give them the publicity which they craved.

Our leaders are complete idiots. My respect for Petraeus has dropped considerably since his “statement” about Koran burnings endangering the troops. We don't live in a police state. People can do all kinds of stupid things, like burn Bibles, put a crucifix in a jar of urine and burn a Koran. It is the leaders and media who create danger for our troops by highlighting it.

So because Obama and his flunkies in the cabinet can't keep their mouths shut, every nut in this country has a headline. WBC is making a point that they are burning another Koran... meaning they did it before and no one cared. Is Obama going to send the FBI to WBC? Just what we need - WBC getting more attention....

How ironic that O'Reily said last night why didn't Obama comment on WBC's insensitivity for protesting at military funerals but commented on the Koran Burning... WILL OBAMA be on the record criticizing WBC for Koran burning but NOT critisizing protesting at Military funerals...WHAT A MORON!

Well all this quran burning is a little bit overhyped.
(Not that i think it should be done but anyway).
I mean if i want to see a burning quran all i have to do is to type in “quran burn” and i can choose between a hell of a lot clips where someone burns it. It´s not like this has never been done before.

to get any attention, they should have to set themselves afire.

Hey muzzies! Go finish off this bunch.

I suppose I don’t see the problem with burning any religious text. I don’t see a problem with burning anything in protest, and the Muzzies have a tendency to burn American flags and the bodies of throat-slit Christians.

But let’s not consider those facts. It’s more important that we might inflame the Muzzies in our theaters of war.

Really? Seriously folks... the Muzzies already hate us and our way of life. How would burning a few crates of Qurans cause them to do anything more than they do already? They live in 3rd world Hellholes.

When you have undeclared wars and overseas contingency operations this is what you get. If we actually declare war then these people could be arrested. PC warfighting and nation building SUCK!

If it were another church, then I would think that their motivation was to tie liberals in knotts. However given that it is Phelps, then I think they are just tools.

They’re simply pissed off that they didn’t get the publicity that the nutcase in FL got, and they want to up the ante.

These booger eating morons are worse than toddlers throwing a temper tantrum.
