It is one thing to come to our peaceful little town and mislabel Stu Rasmussen as a transvestite. It is much worse to mock the loss of a soldier at his or her funeral. But it is unconscionable to even imagine staging a protest at the funeral of Barack Obama's grandmother. Where is the capacity in the human mind to conjure such evil? And, in the name of Christ! One of Fred Phelp's misguided granddaughters carried a sign yesterday proclaiming Obama to be the antichrist. Fred has 13 children and countless grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He has sired an army of despicable hate. But even that cannot explain the thought process that comes up with such twisted thinking so as to protest the death and decent burial of Madlyn Payne Dunham. The Baptist church needs to come out and take a stand to distance themselves from these horrible people. From their action yesterday, their lawsuits, their website and their manifesto, they are nothing less than pure evil. They abuse the constitution and flaunt their protected freedom. Git-Mo should remain open and functioning if only to house Reverend Phelps and his sick inbred spawn.
Neither will I share the vile words they have used against Morris Dees of the Southern Poverty Law Center, nor will I devote any more time to the WBC. Reverend Phelps recalls the N word in bright flashing neon. He out-nazis the Nazis and should be treated appropriately. The framers of the laws of this land certainly did not have him or his "congregation" in mind when they created the protections of the constitution and its amendments.
It's time to move on...

Hey that guy is the ultimate N word.....he's a Nut.
That is awful about protesting at Obama's grandmother's funeral...I just don't get the logic at all!!! Here in TN, we get to hear all about the protests when they come to Ft. Campbell, KY just up the road. There are often bikers and other veterans who rev their motorcycles to drown out the hateful shouts at the funerals. Just despicable.
Melanie, there isn't any logic to a mob mentality.....just a weird sort of bloodlust. Granted folks have the right to protest but a mob mentality doesn't usually have a lot of logic. I'll recommend the Monty Python witch trail from The Holy Grail as an example!!!
