America - Fred Phelps Revisited

The leftoids had a field day with my first post about Fred Phelps. They didn't like it one bit when I lumped him in with them.

They liked it even less when I proved he was one of them.

Now, from Michelle comes news that the left have abandoned all pretense of condemning Phelps.

The family of a Marine who was killed in Iraq is furious with Lt. Gov. Catherine Baker Knoll (a Democrat) for showing up uninvited at his funeral this week, handing out her business card and then saying "our government" is against the war.

Rhonda Goodrich of Indiana, Pa., said yesterday that a funeral was held Tuesday at a church in Carnegie for her brother-in-law, Staff Sgt. Joseph Goodrich, 32. She said he "died bravely and courageously in Iraq on July 10, serving his country."

In a phone interview, Goodrich said the funeral service was packed with people "who wanted to tell his family how Joe had impacted their lives." Then, suddenly, "one uninvited guest made an appearance, Catherine Baker Knoll." She sat down next to a Goodrich family member and, during the distribution of communion, said, "Who are you?" Then she handed the family member one of her business cards, which Goodrich said she still has.

"Knoll felt this was an appropriate time to campaign and impose her will on us," Goodrich said. "I am amazed and disgusted Knoll finds a Marine funeral a prime place to campaign."

You can complain to the Governor here.
