Is he a real person?

I always thought they were some kind of street theater or performance art. Sort of like Andy Kauffman wrestling.

[DakotaGator]

Would love to see a thousand Patriot Guard Riders attend the funeral maintaining silent contempt and not interfering with any others who decided to be noisy.

[americas.best.days...]

It seems as though we’ve found the threshold for “prayers up” for the family,regardless of differences.

[elhombrelibre]

He is to Christianity what Putin is to it. And they both hate America.

[IronJack]

A sinner [soon to be] in the hands of an angry God.

[Slings and Arrows]

[mowowie]

Actually i hope NOBODY shows up.

[nothingnew]

Everybody dies. No one gets out of here alive. It's just the truth.

You mean a seat near the Ted Kennedy eternal flame?Lard and alcohol,burns like napalm.

[beelzepug]

Lord, help me to bite my tongue. Amen.

[upchuck]

I’ve had a couple of run ins with these slime bags.

Loud, vulgar, profane, in your face disgusting pigs.

Farewell Fred. I’ll stop here.

[AppyPappy]

Hoping for a gay pride march at his funeral.

[USFRIENDINVICTORIA]

That would certainly make the message clear; as would “May God have mercy on your soul”. Mainly, just don’t behave like Phelps and the G.B.C. did.

[beelzepug]

That is a terrific idea. It really ought to happen.

[donozark]

Wouldn’t it be a hoot if some of ‘ol Fred’s Hospice workers turn out to be gay?

[Colonel_Flagg]

And don’t anyone forget - this jerk was a DEMOCRAT.

The dirty little secret of the Westboro Baptist Church, and one you'll never hear reported by mainstream media.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

I have long suspected they were a lefty ‘troll group’ trying to make Christians look bad. Buncha pukes.

[Georgia Girl 2]

He’s on the edge of death? Can someone give him a gentle nudge? :-)
