Lovely. Guess who's coming to picket the memorial service for the West Virginia miners? Apparently they died because God hates gay cowboys and Dan Brown. Buh? (Not that logic has ever been a strong point with these wingnuts.) It's not very charitable of me to think "he's gonna get himself shot or maybe have a little accident on those West Virginia mountain roads that folks from Kansas just aren't used to, and I'll consider the world much better off if it happens", but if there's anyone out there utterly undeserving of compassion, I'm pretty sure it's Fred Phelps.

I've always wondered -- out of all the "sins" committed in the world today, why does old Fred choose to focus on that one? I mean, aside from the fact that he's completely fucking nuts...

Methinks perhaps the gentleman doth protest too much.

Yes. 8-) Far too much. What this nutcase really needs is to live with persistent rumors that the only reason he's protesting anyway is because of guilt over his own homosexual tendencies. People need to start advising him (very publicly) that he needs to accept who he is and stop feeling guilty, even if it takes therapy for him to come to terms with his own feelings.
