  1. Westboro doesn't have a clue how to react to love. Excellent!
    Only when Huckleberry and Sanatorium realize the general population (voters) are more tolerant and understanding than they are will they start to back down from that aspect of their conservative "lifestyle" of hatred and disenfranchisement.

    1. Jono -- It must have been completely beyond the WBC's ken. Since when did evil ever understand good? :D

  2. I'm really getting tired of hearing people talk about how wonderful and tolerant Pope Francis is. He is the King of Doublespeak.

    1. George -- His Humanum address really drove that point home for me. By the way, did you hear about his latest statement?

      If he doesn't want Catholics to breed like rabbits, he should probably do something about the church ban on contraception.

    2. I did hear that. So is he telling Catholics to have less sex? Or has he had a revelation of new (contradictory) doctrine?

    3. George -- Since he hasn't touched the ban on contraception, I'm going to assume the former.

  3. When it comes to the Westboro Baptist Church I've wondered if they would ever stand down... and I don't think they ever would. Sad.
