FORT CAMPBELL, Kentucky (AP) - Wearing vests covered in military patches, a band of motorcyclists rolls around the country from one soldier's funeral to another, cheering respectfully to overshadow jeers from church protesters.
They call themselves the Patriot Guard Riders, and they are more than 5,000 strong, forming to counter anti-gay protests held by the Rev. Fred Phelps at military funerals.
Phelps believes American deaths in Iraq are divine punishment for a country that he says harbors homosexuals. His protesters carry signs thanking God for so-called IEDs -- explosives that are a major killer of soldiers in Iraq...
Soldiers? Evangelicals? Gays?
I think I know a certain President who's very confused as to what he should be feeling right now...
Meanwhile, TheSmokingGun.com has proof that the sanctity of marriage is in jeopardy!

And what I don't get is, she saw this contract and STILL MARRIED THE GUY???
Posted by: Emily at February 22, 2006 9:48 AMI’m starting to think that Fred Phelps inbreeds his family. Who else would be convinced to participate in his craziness?
