Sean Hannity calls GodHatesFags.com’s Founder ultra-leftwing liberal
On today’s Sean Hannity show, Hannity had a rip roaring rant over “protesters” showing up and protesting at a soldiers funeral in Martinsville, Indiana. He called these protesters the worst kind of “ultra left-wing liberal.” With a little help from Google, I found exactly who he was calling liberal. Turns out, the liberal was none other than the GodHatesFags.com founder, Fred Phelps. (http://www.reporter-times.com/?module=displaystory&story_id=25929&format=html)
Six members of the Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kansas, picketed outside Neal and Summers Mortuary during Staff Sgt. Jeremy Doyle’s funeral services, chanting messages that members of the military are being punished by God for not opposing homosexuality, and that their deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan are America’s punishment.
I really don’t think Hannity was calling Phelps a liberal. He never named the protesters as he usually does with Sheehan or Code Pink, this protester was unnamed. He also never said what was on the protest signs. I think he was just only using half the story to brew up hate and anger at those of us who are supportive of the troops and against the war in Iraq. That kinda puts Hannity on Phelp’s level - it is all about the hate.
