Repost...do a search and see how many stations and newspapers covered this story, or check to see if anyone pressed Gore on this issue (other than the Gore teleconference call that was crashed by FReepers).
Not a single question to Gore on this. Pathetic hypocrites we have in the media.

It is just a clever plot to make it LOOK like the media is ignoring it to make it SEEM like there is a left wing bias when in fact there is ACTUALLY a VRWC...babble...babble
(Tipper to Al: "Now the doctor told you to take your medicine and to be calm...")

In October the Phelps clan paid a visit to Ft. Collins. Before their arrival I wrote a soapbox to our local (pro-Democrat of course) newspaper.
It didn't get printed. (What a shocker). They didn't even send a form letter back to acknowledge its receipt. Such is life ---- on the non-PC side of the railroad tracks, anyway.
Because my Oct. letter had mentioned this same Gore/Phelps fundraiser, I thought I'd fetch it out of my mailbox and post it here - so that my effort not be totally wasted.
Enjoy.
=================================================
TITLE: GET FACTS ON ALLEGED BAPTIST CHURCH
So, the Fred Phelps Family Freakshow is rolling through our region once again with their "God Hates F*gs," Gay-Funeral-Picketing routine.
And once again the Coloradoan will blatantly misinform its readers by labeling this large extended family of Kansas trial lawyers and longtime Democratic activists as a "Baptist Church". Period. The Phelps family is many things, but to call them only a Baptist Church and leave it at that is the most grotesque type of journalistic "spin" I can imagine.
I can't believe a newspaper your size hasn't the wherewithal to provide reporters with basic internet access so they can research the truth about this family.
Here's a "Test Your Internet Research Skills" Quiz. Try it! Answer these :
- Does the church building this family owns in Topeka house something that even 1% of American Christians might recognize as a "church"?
- Are there any members of this alleged church other than Fred Phelps and his descendants and their spouses?
- Is it affiliated with any denomination?
- Is there a single Christian denomination subscribing to their doctrine that "God Hates The Sinner" - which would mean God hates the entire human race?
(Helpful hint: If none of your political reporters can identify weird Christian Lingo like "denomination" or "doctrine," you could hire outside consultants). - Yes/No: Do the Phelpses hold the alltime Kansas record for "Most Disbarments, Law License Suspensions, and Other Legal Disciplinary Actions Against One Single Family of Lawyers"?
- Find how many of Fred's 15 children have completely dissociated from the family. Locate on the internet their denouncements and exposés.
- How many times have Fred or his children run for Congress or Kansas statewide office on the Democratic ticket?
- Track down photos on the internet of Al & Tipper Gore smiling alongside the Phelpses at a Democrat fundraiser they sponsored for Al.
(Hint: Think 1988 Presidential campaign, during one of Gore's previous incarnations as a Conservative Southerner, shortly before he metastasized into the "Earth First/People Last," "Baby Killing's OK if you call it Choice," "Muzzle all Christians who don't believe Gay Is Godly" Liberal extremist Algor we all know and love today.)
It's not hard to guess at the Phelpses' motivation. Their actions have gotten them interviewed repeatedly on many "respectable" nationwide news shows, magazines and newspapers (and of course, the spin is always "Baptist Church"!) Consider: If you heard that you could be on nationwide TV by saying something outrageous, would you do it? Perhaps not you, but certainly plenty of others would. The Phelpses are the political equivalent of daytime TV talkshows, where an unlimited supply of sad debris willingly debase themselves in exchange for fleeting national stardom.
(By the way, photos of Phelps that are used as scare tactics in gay fundraising letters have undoubtedly raised more $$$ for the Left than Hillary's scary mug ever raised for the Right. This family is one heckuva valuable Cash Cow for Demorats!)
Summary: Instead of cynically smearing all Christians with Guilt By Association by spinning this circus act as "Baptist Churchgoers," you could have more accurately spun it as, "Large Extended Family of Democratic Activists Brings Message of Hate to Town."
But of course, that would have violated The Prime Directive Of Modern Journalism, to wit, "Thou Shalt Not Embarrass Thine Fellow Democrats During Election Season".
Or you could have spun it as, "Large Family of Trial Lawyers and Disbarred Trial Lawyers Brings Message of Hate." (Oops! Sorry! I momentarily forgot that candidates Tom Strickland and Stan Matsunaka are both trial lawyers, so this would also violate The Prime Directive.)
Oh never mind. You just keep on pretending they're a "Baptist Church," and we'll keep on pretending you're responsible journalists.

Sorry, you're wrong. He's always hated "fags".

Guilt by association, sorry Mr. Gore, but you hung out with buddies that HATED "fags", and even solicited their support.
To: madg
You sound as if you'd defend Gore if he had a hood and burnt crosses...I mean after all, you can't see what's behind that hood.

Reason tells me Gore hung out with a bunch of homophobes, and even tried to milk them for cash. You think it's unreasonable to believe they discussed "fag" culture as it affects the American family? LOL.
