The attorney who won the Supreme Court case last week affirming the Westboro Baptist Church’s right to stage anti-gay protests outside military funerals suggested on Sunday the high court’s nine justices are going to hell.
“I have no objective indicator otherwise. The default for mankind is hell unless you bring forth fruits meet for repentance. The assumption is that you will end up in hell when you quit your life on this Earth,” attorney Margie Phelps said during an appearance on “Fox News Sunday.” Phelps is the daughter of Westboro’s founder, the Rev. Fred Phelps.
“There is a duty of every human to bring forth fruit meet for repentance,” she added. “I have seen no evidence of that in a single leader in that nation.”
“So the justices are going to hell? The president is going to hell?” asked Fox host Chris Wallace.
“Absolutely on the president," Margie Phelps replied. “The president is going to be king of the world before this is all said and done, and he is most likely the beast spoken of in the Revelation.”

I watched a bit of this woman on fox the other night. I could only stomach her for a very few minutes. Why is anyone giving this woman any air time at all is beyond me.
The goal of the media is to make Christ look bad.
She may be right about Obama.
Ms Phelps and the Westboro Babtist Church have nothing to do with Christ.
The Westboro church can likely tell the Obamas and the Justices themselves at the appointed time.
Wondering what Wallace’s ratings were with her on the program, as “freak shows” are quite popular throughout history.
I find it hard to believe a human being can hold that much hatred and not explode, literally.
I wish she would have added “And Ded Kennedy is saving him a place”.
True, they could be seeing quite a bit of each other.
Sure, but many unsaved look at a woman like this and say all church people are the same.
Just ignore these morons
How did this get fast-tracked to the supreme court so fast?
How do they afford an appeal to the supreme court?
who is funding these morons?
they would be nothing if the lib media did not keep putting them into the news
Makes you wonder why Chris Wallace would want her on his show.
I guess there is no short supply of hateful loons out there.
He may be starting a segment with the “loon of the week” from here on out.
If this deranged b!tch is characteristic of the residents of heaven, I’m going to side with Twain and declare my preferences as follows;
Heaven for the climate, Hell for the company
If the media would just ignore these yahoos they’d probably go away.
Re #11:
I don’t disagree with you on that. However Westboro isn’t some odd little congregation that sits in their pews spouting this crap but doesn’t go looking for negative attention. They’re pretty good at calling attention to themselves. This is not a case of “ignore them and they’ll go away”.
Marge, you’re telling us this like we didn’t already know.
Your conclusion is highly doubtful and the point is moot.
But with "Baptist" in their name, they can be used to slander those who do.
No, Ted Kennedy is saving him a place in Hell. Ded Kennedy is saving him a place on the flight to a holiday in Cambodia.
