You-Gi-Owe, this serves NO purpose but to flame or bait Democrats and the Democratic Party.

And FYI, Osama bin Laden once said he'd vote for GEORGE W. BUSH back in 2004 if he could have.

Enough, please.

True, but people actually listen to yours. He has his own TV show. He has his own college.

At leas the Democrats' religious wacko is nothing more than a sideshow.

Seriously, what happened to this guy..

Phelps took cases on behalf of African American clients alleging discrimination by school systems, and a predominately black American Legion post which had been raided by police, alleging racially-based police abuse. Phelps' law firm obtained settlements for some clients.[20] Phelps also sued then-President Ronald Reagan over Reagan's appointment of a U.S. ambassador to the Vatican, alleging this violated separation of church and state. The case was dismissed by the U.S. district court.[20][21] Phelps' law firm, staffed by himself and family members also represented non-white Kansans in discrimination actions against Kansas Power and Light, Southwestern Bell, and the Topeka City Attorney, and represented two female professors alleging discrimination in Kansas universities.[19]

In the 1980s Phelps received awards from the Greater Kansas City Chapter of Blacks in Government and the Bonner Springs branch of the NAACP for his work on behalf of black clients.[22]

Whatever it looks like now, the only reason he objected to an ambassador to the Vatican is because he believes all Catholics are papists, slaves of the Pope, hell-bound, etc, etc.

Take a look at his age (80) and where he's from (Topeka). Save what his actions suggest of his attitude toward the black community, his views are much more in line with the likes of Pat Robertson and Pat Buchanan.

Democrats are too pro-business, and Republicans are too anti-logic.

A two-party system is a bum deal either way, but I'll take the lesser evil, thank you, no matter what whacked out Kansas-dweller joins the party.

Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.

Man, he's an arch-Democrat. I reckon he must have mass support amongst the party, and long-term mass support from Democratic Party voters.

Phelps has run in various Kansas Democratic Party primaries five times, but has never won.

Naturally. The GOP is full of various scumbags. It's of greater suprise when the scumbag is a Democrat.

It is necessary to expose the false propaganda of the imperialists and thoroughly dispel the illusion that the imperialists will give up their positions in the colonies and dependent countries with good will. It is wrong to try to avoid the struggle against imperialism under the pretext that independence and revolution are important, but that peace is still more precious. The oppressed peoples can liberate themselves only through struggle. This is a simple and clear truth confirmed by history.
