Video: Sean Hannity vs. Shirley Phelps Roper (holy crap!!!) |
|
Saw this on DU last night in the Lounge, posting it here again for all those who did not see it (and trust me - while you may hate him, Hannity actually proves to be the lesser of two evils in this case!) : http://youtube.com/watch?v=6UMP3AK5jwo&search=westboro:wow:

15. Why? They're basically ideological soulmates |
|
Death, killing, and brutality in the name o' God/Allah/the Flying Spaghetti Monster/whatever.

4. For the most part, I think that there's one issue |
|
that Republicans and Democrats can agree on, and that is that the Westboro Baptist Church is a bunch of hate filled, psychotic nutballs who wouldn't be missed if they disappeared off the face of the earth.
That being said, I will stand by their right to protest and make asses of themselves, just like I stand by someone's right to burn the flag in protest if they want to. I think protesting at funerals is beyond disgusting, but protesting is protesting. Personally, I'm surprised someone from a grief stricken family hasn't choked the living crap out of one of them yet.

7. That pretty much sums it all up |
|
They need to be ignored. When guys like Hannity give them press time, they are just helping them draw other weirdos to their "cause".
I saw that sick bitch being interviewed last week. I usually despise Hannity, but was glad to see him take her to task. Hannity is not crazy-he may be a shallow talking head, but he's not a loon. The woman looked crazy in the scary, cold way, not in the raving, animated way.
Fred Phelps and his band of loonies need their own psych ward. Locked, preferably.

As tough as it may be, the best way to handle these people is to ignore them.

17. Actually, Freppers think otherwise. |

No surprise there, but they actually think he's a Democratic operative.

18. Evidently, a couple of bikers tuned one of those shitbuckets up |
|
I think it was after a funeral last fall. Unfortunately, they don't know who to sue, which is their strategy. "Punch me in the face and I'll sue the shit out of you..."

9. But why is hannity taking her seriously and giving her air time? |
|
What those Westboro idiots need is to be ignored, period.
(My theory is that the right actually likes having them around -- they make the average rightwing bigot look perfectly sane in comparison.)

10. Actually, I think this was a good thing... |
|
Let those assholes be on Fox News, then the Bushistas can see exactly how far their extreme homophobia can get. Let them stare at the face of pure evil.

I loved that...what a whackjob! I am a Christian and this woman cracks me up. She makes southern baptist (which is the affiliation of the church i attended for most of my youth) look like the most left wing group on the planet.
She is sitting there complaining about the "you will not obey the Lord, your God" but she has failed to follow Christ's most basic command: Love the Lord with all your heart, mind and soul and love your neighbor as you love yourself." Talk about a plank in your eye...WOW...
Whew...almost as good as the one from "Trading Spouses"...IT'S ALL DARKSIDED...wish I could find that video again!
