(a.k.a., Sheehan gets MSM publicity. We want our share. We want to be on TV, too.)

[Rightly Biased]

Gives Baptist a bad name

Glad he ain't Southern Baptist

[GregoTX]

They finaly thought of a new way to reach a new low. Imagine being at a hero's funeral, who is family or a loved one, and these moonbats show up and protest. The left wing has to be loosing respect, I cant imagine America responding in a positive manner to this.

[AppyPappy]

He's not a Baptist. He's a carnie.

[Brilliant]

"the group of about 15..."

You can always find 15 people who want to defame Christianity by puking hate speech, and claiming to do so in the name of Christ. I'm betting these people don't have Christian beliefs--just political beliefs.

[SmithL]

That's him.

[Lekker 1]

Gosh it's good to know that someone like Phelps is so concerned about sinners like us.

[AmishDude]

What are they protesting exactly?

That Fred Phelps isn't getting enough press.

[Rightly Biased]

Pudgey fingers and smell like cabbage?

[AmishDude]

Anybody got the pic of him posing with Algore?

[robowombat]

Ah for the return of good old fashioned folk justice to be meted out. The kind where nobody can identify any of the perpetrators.

[chris1]

If I were there, I would knock them right out one by one and get arrseted for assault. I would care nothing about it.

[GregoTX]

"Anybody got the pic of him posing with Algore?"

Your not somehow suggesting that Phelps promotes a political agenda are you?

/sarc of course

"The law says that we have got to give them a place and we will," he said.

There are some prime places for this group right beside the Tenn. river, nice, soft and gooey.

LOCK & LOAD!!!

[Dionysius]

I'll bet he got his credentials from the Church of the Divine Mailbox.

[Bahbah]

I'll bet he got his credentials from the Church of the Divine Mailbox.

LOL.

[GregoTX]

Maybe someone should call for Pat Roberts to assassinate him.

[Mad Mammoth]

Fred Phelps and his lunatic band of protesters prove that God made man in His own image, based on God Himself, because just as man has a digestive tract, so too must God, and Phelps and his crew are what inevitably exits into the eternal toilet bowl...

"What are they protesting exactly? I don't get it."

I was wondering the same thing. Are they protesting the burial? Are they protesting the rites being given? Or are they making a political anti-war statement? Call the IRS, someone!
