Fred Phelps, Westboro Baptist Church founder, near death


Recommended Posts

You realize that it's the media hype machine, and people who gave this crackpot attention that gave him ANY kind of a pulpit, right? I any rational society, a nutter like this guy would have never gotten ANY spotlight.

 

IMO, Phelps was the creation of a hyperactive liberal media hellbent on painting ANYONE who disagrees with their views on homosexuality (or anything else for that matter) as being "phelpsian."

 

I get your point, but I believe that any media, liberal or not, would run a story on the obvious outrage over a group who was low enough to protest funerals, especially of those who lost their lives in service to the country. that they behaved that way to draw attention to themselves, I don't doubt for a moment.

 

Just for ***** and giggles, Fun Fact:

 

Fred Phelps was a hard line Democrat, and actually garnered more than 30% of the vote in Kansas in a Democratic US Senatorial Primary as recently as 1992.

:lol:

ah, the sound of stereotypes exploding.

I have it from an authoritative source (gator) that all the bad guys left the democrat party in the early 60's.

well then, I guess it must be true. so it must just be a nasty rumor about former senator Robert Byrd (D-WV) being a former Klansman. otherwise, he obviously would have otherwise become a republican.
