True Christians want nothing to do with Fred Phelps--they can have him.

I understand this guy is a Democrat and there was even a connection between him and Gore.

Could Howard Dean really be that clueless about genuine evangelicals?

Could be. I always considered him to be a kook.

He was a Gore delegate in 88.

Google Gore and Phelps, several picts of them together will show up.

That's hardly surprising. There's not much difference between Howard, who hates Republicans and all that they stand for, and Phelps, who hates homosexuals and all that they stand for. Both have outrageous tempers and impulse control problems.

Yep, it's been pretty well documented on FR that Phelps is a liberal Democrat. Do an archive search & you'll come up with a ton more threads on this.

That's not sweetening the deal.

"Could Fred Phelps be just that—a gay-baiting whacko who has infiltrated the church to make Christian Evangelicals all look like fools?"

I think you are onto something here.
