The Phelps klan made their tour through Colorado Springs last Friday, and they had such a great time they're coming back for more.
Phelps After picketing Palmer High School last Friday, the anti-gay Westboro Baptist Church plans to return to Colorado Springs next week to protest Vice Mayor Richard Skorman. The Topeka, Kan.-based group led by the Rev. Fred Phelps also will picket City Hall and the Gay and Lesbian Fund on Thursday.
Then, on April 30, the church will protest what it claims are the pro-gay policies of the conservative Christian ministry Focus on the Family.
Ah yes, the 'pro-gay' Focus on the Family. Don't be fooled -- these people may be remorseless bigots of the most outrageous kind, but they're not stupid. They understand their fringe position in this debate -- and building FOTF into a 'moderate' voice is good strategy for the common goal. Lyndon LaRouche learned that trick years ago. Dobson and Phelps want the same thing: from there, it's just a question of verbage.
