I enjoy as they smack down Shirley Phelps Roper.

But she is impervious to it all, sadly. Just continues with that freaky skeletal grin and inserting "the Lord your God" into every phrase to make it seem more significant. Ugh.

Occasionally FNC gets it right. I had the pleasure of seeing this live.

I absolutely love this!

That lady sucks. I hate people who obscure religion like that and give it a bad name. Go Fox

Edit: Lol, the very end is hilarious "Alright, Allejuah"

That...grin...


Oh..sweet jesus...


THAT GRIN


*Flees*

If a bomb should happen to find it's way into the Phelps church I wouldn't morn the loss of that intire congregation.

Sweet! I should have seen that live, that was just awesome. I agree with Dark Shadowy Nexus and Skinny87. That grin, jesus christ, looks like Death looking you right in the eye. *Shudders*

Holy shit, to think I'm alligned with Fox News against someone...

The enemy of enemy, I suppose.

This bitch should be shot, and her corpse raped on national TV.

Which one is Hannity and which one is Colmes?

Hannity the round one and Colmes is the one with the glasses.

As much as I hate this woman they did a hoseshit job of "interviewing" her

God what an awfull news program

As much as I hate this woman they did a hoseshit job of "interviewing" her

God what an awfull news program

To be fair to them ( I know, fair to Fox), I don't think there's a good way of interviewing her. She's off her rocker. They just sped up the process; the horeshit she was talking, I don't think anyone can make a good interview out of that.

Funny how she invoked the law as being unconstitutional (which it does seem to be - I'd have to know the specifics because a funeral is a private service and you can disinvite anyone you'd like..) while trying to force religion down people's throats (establishment clause).

As much as I hate this woman they did a hoseshit job of "interviewing" her

Meh, the reason I think Fox News is great is because instead of trying to act neutral and indirectly pointing out their views like other news agencies, they just flame the crap out of idiots like this. This is good stuff.

I don't support the military, but I would never protest at a funeral. Individual soldiers aren't people I view as scum or evil; they're people who did something I didn't agree with. I'm not going to be there, crying a mourning, but I'll leave their family members and friends to grieve without disturbance. Peace will never come from hatred. It's a pity that Phelps Roper can't understand that.

They could have at least tried ... seems too much for them

Dont get me wrong with that stupid lady I dont think it would have suceeded.

If a bomb should happen to find it's way into the Phelps church I wouldn't morn the loss of that intire congregation.

All of them are related to each other, so you'd not only wipe out the family but all of the possible attendees at the funeral!

Not that I (or pretty much anyone else) would be dismayed by such a turn of events...

They may have not been trying to act nutral but they were trying to falsly act like a news program

They could have at least tried ... seems too much for them

Dont get me wrong with that stupid lady I dont think it would have suceeded.

I know what you mean... if their own performance had been better... if they'd refuseed to let themselves be 'brought down', they would have made mincemeat out of her arguments, rather than relying on her innate charms to convince the audience she's a psychobitchpig.

To be honest, this interview was like shooting fish in a barrel. I dont enjoy watching the mentally insane get ripped into, but I make an exception in this case.

Exactly ... it is like on the forums, she is a troll and hanity and combs are suposed to be professionals trying to debate with her.

Thats not what happened, thoes perfessionals fell for the bait

I know what you mean... if their own performance had been better... if they'd refuseed to let themselves be 'brought down', they would have made mincemeat out of her arguments, rather than relying on her innate charms to convince the audience she's a psychobitchpig.

But uh, she doesn't have arguments. She has preaching. That's all she does.

But uh, she doesn't have arguments. She has preaching. That's all she does.

But, if all they do is 'preach' back, it becomes a 'cult of personality' issue... and that is neither 'news' nor a logical rebuttal.

Of course, in this particular case 'cult' of personality might not have been the right word...

:o

If only she apeared on a BBC News. Getting a smackdown on a more impartial news channnel is even more humiliating.

That woman is Fred Phelp's daughter or something?

Now, I usually think of myself as a very pacific, mild-mannered, sensible young man. Why is it that seeing her her makes my skin crawl and hearing her is almost enough to send me into murderous rage?

Aren't there laws to intern psychotic, crazy, dangerous people such as these in the USA? Because I know someone saying things so outrageous here would be subjected to instant psychological examination, and probably sent to a nuthouse, too. Or, if by some miracle they were proven to be sane, they'd be sued out on the street so fast they'd wonder where the heck their pants were gone.

I'm now waiting for the 250,000 USD to roll into my Swiss Bank Account, and my custom made Dragonuv Sniper to find it's way past customs. Start paying attention to the news over the weekend, :-D.

Anyways, I've always been a fan of FNC and Hanity & Colmbs. But that is fucking awesome how the completely pwned her. The sad thing is, she is so full of it she doesn't know she just got pwned.

Oh well...I do love the part though when you see the sign in cameo saying - "GOD HATES YOU!", I thought to my self...I wonder if the car the drove by had a bumper sticker saying "Jesus loves you!" lol.

What is wrong with some of you people? When I watch news I don't want them to beat around the bush and give nutjobs and equal chance. I thank God that Fox News shut her down and exposed her for the moron that she is. If this was on NPR or CNN the reporters would be kissing her ass right now. And, by the way, Hannity and Colmes is not a "news reporting" show, it is an opinion based show (left vs. right) that discussed news issues. The whole point of Hannity and Colmes is to "tell it like it is," not be bipartison like a regular newscaster. I'm so happy though that Fox is a lone voice in the media sticking up for the truth!

That reminds me, Fred Phelps looks like a skeleton.

That bitch is scary looking, is her face stuck like that or is she doing it on purpose.

That...grin...

*Flees*

All we need is a giant spotlight and some black paint. Problem solved. :D

Yeah they say Jews are the enemy, yet they obey the Jewish Old Testament where it says gays are an abomination. What consistency!

All the kids of Rev Phelps have been beaten and abused all their lives and that is why she doesn't react to Hannity & Colmes railing at her. That is how she can smile and continuing talking through them. Verbal (and physical) attacks have been her life and that look in her eyes is the look of zombie without a soul. He beat the soul out of all his kids and now he is beating the soul out of all his grandkids. And yet, the law can't get to him because everyone of his kids was made to become a lawyer or die, and protect him they will, or face what they believe is a special hell set aside for those who disobey their dad. Its ugly and gross and its the fruit of child abuse and hate. Sad and sorry indeed.

Which one is Hannity and which one is Colmes?

The ugly male is Colmes. :D

If only she apeared on a BBC News. Getting a smackdown on a more impartial news channnel is even more humiliating.

BBC...impartial...laughs hysterically to self...

Outstanding first post. Welcome to NS.

Where can I get one of these "God is your enemy"-placards?

Im personally a fan of the 'George Bush is a Fag Pimp' signs.
Check out some of the videos on their website. Fass would have a field day with them.

The BBC is one of the more impartial news services out there. Not perfect, but better than most.

I now await the anti-BBC diatribe.

Flame war news! Haha.

I think the fact that she keeps repeating the word "obey" is the most striking thing there. Fucking authoritarian scum.

Obey! OBey!! OBEy!!! OBEY!!!! (http://www.wessex.clara.net/dalek.jpg)

I don't know what Hannity was so upset about. She seemed like a typical Christian conservative to me; ignorant, hate-mongering, and hopelessly deluded. That's the Fox news target audience.

Colmes is the one who looks like a Cardassian.:p

The BBC is far less biased than Fox, I'm quite sure of that fact.

The BBC is far less biased than Fox, I'm quite sure of that fact.

all news is biased and the only way to attempt to fix that is to hire a wide variety of reporters from all different cultures. but then your news team would probably be too big

viewers of a news channel are also going to be biased and there isnt much a news network can do about that but fit in with their views

you will also never know your news is biased if you agree with it. you just wont view it as being biased. if you watch BBC all the time you probably dont notice how bias it is and if you watch cnn all the time you probably dont think that is very biased. if it goes along with your views then you probably wont question it much

Excellent work on the tolerance, thing, generalizing like that. Good show, good show.

*applauds*

Humans cannot be unbiased.


As for that lady -- and this is coming from a fairly conservative CAlvinist, mind you -- let her tyrade, let her preach her perversion. It is not the Word of God. She will understand this upon her death.

She has a right to say what she wants to. The people have a right to respond in kind.

This same thing happened at my Grandmother's church, actually. Same people, too. God bless those bikers who made themselves a barrier.

This is from Susan's Blog. It is a written transcript (unofficial) of the interview for those who don't have speakers to hear the video, or who have dial up and it's too sloooow.

It begins about half way down.

No other major "news" organization in the US can compare to Fox News in terms of bias. They have an agenda, and they make very little effort to hide it. Using a personality as weak as Colmes as the supposed counter-point to someone as over-bearing as Sean Hannity is a good example. My favorite example was Dick Cheney: Why He Fights. Pure propaganda, softball questions for Dick and a blatant attack on a man who dared to ask Cheney why he lied to justify the invasion of Iraq...patting themselves on the back for being fair and balanced the whole time.

If it weren't so despicable, I would be rolling on the floor laughing at that. Still it gave me a few chuckles. To be so obviously wrong in your beliefs, it's just :headbang: frustrating. I understand the right for free speech, but someone needs to shut these people up, it's disgraceful. I just can't understand how they can make this kind of a leap, but oh well...these people are all going to burn in hell, and I'll be laughing my ass off.

I make no claims to piety. I'll spare what tolerance I have for those I find more deserving. I owe none to Chistians.

I saw the woman as a caricature of every right-wing X-ian wacko I've seen given airtime, every fundie I've eventually had to iggy, every wild-eyed nutjob trying to push his idiotic delusions down my throat, and I found it hilarious. If you don't like it, tell that self-absorbed tyrant you call a god to smite me or send bears to kill some children or something.

I agree. I also include pretty much all of the hard left in that sentiment, without there even having to be religion involved.

So they got bitchy with her. Big deal.

Where were they when the phelps crowd was doing this crap at gay funerals?

The fact that its now soldiers makes it wrong now?

Can't stand Phelps. Can't stand those two idiots.

I can understand your fustration with some of the outspoken right wing Christians that appear in the USA all over the place. I, like you, also find them irritating at most. However nothing can excuse you from the mear "retardness" of your sweeping genralisation.

Wow... I've never heard a more ignorant liberal elitist. Maybe Colmes seems so weak because his arguments are generally based on the weak, completely inane objectives of the Democratic party. Put any liberal against Hannity and he'll overpower them. Conservatives have better argements, therefore come off as better arguers. Fox is as fair and balanced as you will get. The only reason they seem so conservative is because you grew up watching a news media that was completely liberal!

Outstanding first post. Welcome to NS.


Thank you. I'm glad I'm not the only conservative on NS.

I'm sure that somewhere out there in the expansive universe lefitst=impartial. It sure as hell isn't the case on this planet lol...

They think so, if you lean to the right you must be a racist or a Christian. Where are all of us who are in the center, and Hillary is not in the center no matter how much she claims she is. :rolleyes:

Hah... Hillary is a joke. She may as well have a sign taped on her back reading "I'll say whatever you want to hear to get elected!" The notion that the left is moving torward the center is hilarious. Oh, by the way, this message is from a racist Christian :D .

They think so, if you lean to the right you must be a racist or a Christian. Where are all of us who are in the center, and Hillary is not in the center no matter how much she claims she is. :rolleyes:

Actually, i would regard myself, just left of center. The supreme position in my opinion.:cool:

Put any liberal against Hannity and he'll overpower them.
If I remember correctly, it was Hannity who invited Al Franken on his program and then threatened to "rip [Franken] into fucking pieces", after Franken ripped him a new one. Or it might have been O'Reilly.

I must confess I never would have believed that such a primitive mind would still exist these days! A word has yet to be invented that is severe enough to describe her and her in-bread family and whatever that word is, she is the epitome of it!

They should bring back the burning of witches. I think she pretty much qualifies.

If a bomb should happen to find it's way into the Phelps church I wouldn't morn the loss of that intire congregation.

I wonder how aggressively the authorities would actually investigate and prosecute if that happened....hmm....

EDIT: OK, here's the plan. Someone goes, pretends to be a regular Baptist fundie interested in converting or joining or whatever, someone fairly convincing, and they ask for a tour. When they get into the church, find a place with a trash can and at least the slightest plausibility of wanting to take a picture. Pull out a disposable camera, try to take a picture, fail, and say it's broken and toss it. Little do they know that it's a clever fake packed with explosives. Wait until mass or whatever starts, and BHAM!

I wonder just how long their 'faith' would last if an al'qaeda terrorist blew themselves up in their 'church'. It would be worth collecting empirical data on that.

I'm not racist, christian, or even anti-gay. And yet I'm still on the right. If you only look at either side by our loudest members, we all look crazy.

Those Taliban in Iowa
Yeah, they're the fundamentalists who want to kill people. :rolleyes:

their unconstitutional laws...
Yes, I'm sure you would respect the constitution. :rolleyes:

As much as I hate this woman they did a hoseshit job of "interviewing" her

God what an awfull news program
I agree. They could have owned her so much better, but they went right to the "you're a disgrace to this country" - which is true - but should be used as the bone-crushing conclusion of an argument rather than its main body.

Only if you're there to see it.:D
well maybe I will be:cool:

Wait...Oh, shit:(

I am officially entertained.

"HOW DARE YOU FAIL TO OBEY?!"

"...CUT OFF BY A RAGING GOD..."

"Well, it is about 80, and most of them ARE our family..."

"KNOWING THE TERROR OF THE LORD, YOU SHOULD PERSUADE MEN TO OBEY!"

Seriously... That is entertainment, right there. Pure, 100% down-home, horror flick entertainment. I may have nightmares tonight, but I'm glad I watched it.

Seriously, you can't actually believe that load of shit, can you? Are you actually that deluded? Exactly what color is the sky in that little world of yours?

These "righteous" people who use religion to further their hatred are no better than terrorists. She utterly refused to listen to anything Colmes had to say, speaking over him and spewing her venom. Totally despicable indeed.
