Of course they're liberal. They hate America. They say "God Hates America". Who cares if they also say that God hates fags? Who cares if they're also doing God's work by picketing fag churches? Hatred of America is liberal, period. The admins were right to lock the page.

'You seem to forget that children are reading this site, and they might be confused if we give then too much conflicting information.'
Really? It's 'conflicting information' that you're concerned about and not throwing the word 'fag' around and supporting hateful sentiment?
Good God, I'd hope children wouldn't be reading that site.
So, *they're* liberal because they hate America...because America is too liberal?
How does that even make sense?
This is what happens when you add stupid shit like "hates their country" to your definition of the opposing political party.
That quote isn't fundie; it's just fucking stupid. It's pretty much on par with the low-rent conservative "authors" who follow their book titles with magazine-length bylines.
"They're not merely liberals!
They're not merely leftists!
They're not merely Democrats!
They're...liberal leftist Democrats!"
Are they also CommunoMarxIslamjihadi-Fascist-pooh-heads?
"Who cares if they also say that God hates fags? "
That would make them conservative.
"Hatred of America is liberal, period. "
Yeah, America is going down the toilet because liberals have controlled the congress and the White House for years.
"You seem to forget that children are reading this site, and they might be confused if we give then too much conflicting information"
False information is ok, as long children are not confused by adding conflicting true information.
I don't understand any of this. What are 'fag churches'? What is 'America'? Why does anyone hate them? How is that liberal?
Parents should not let their children read this site: it's full of hate.
Fred Phelps should be buried alive, because him I can hate without guilt.

Phelps is a Democrat. He was an acquaintance of both Clinton and Gore; and he ran for office as a Dem.
Before he was the 'God Hates Fags' guy, he was a civil rights lawyer. His daughter, the much-maligned Shirley Phelps Roper, is also a civil rights lawyer - and presumably a Democrat like her old man.
Considering what the Conservatives have done to the United States, spilling blood, burning money, and squandering global good will, the posters at Conservapedia should pull the plank from their own ass before going after the sliver in someone else's.
Fred Phelps should be buried alive, because him I can hate without guilt.
I disagree with you wholeheartedly, Ferg. Putting up with Fred is a small price to pay for freedom.
I can't wait til this old fuck kicks it. There will be protests at his funeral. And it will be *glorious*, because the retarded inbred pricks in his family won't be able to do anything about it because of their own actions.
Fred Phelps dies. God laughs.
Truly, thou art his moral superior.
@Crazy Fundie:
Like I said, I'm cranky in the morning. Usually I try to be better than that. It wasn't right, I admit.
Still, it IS amusing to think of the most flamboyant, flaming homosexuals protesting his funeral.
Phelps and his gang are not liberal. They are anything but.
Then again, since fundies create their own definitions and realities, does something like this surprise anyone?
"Still, it IS amusing to think of the most flamboyant, flaming homosexuals protesting his funeral."
Why protest, that's his trick? Even better that they surround the event with a huge, outrageous Pride celebration.
Nice. Trying to call the homophobic ultra-conservative super-fundamentalist Christians liberal simply because they say "God hates America", when they are only saying to condemn the so-called immorality of the country, not its policies. Really, an incredible attempt to hide what conservatism really is, but it just doesn't work that way.
Edit: But, at least in the case of Freddy "Krueger" Phelps, it looks like the Conservapedia crew are right! The guy, despite leading a Church that is anti-gay, anti-Semitic, anti-Catholic, anti-Islamic, racist, and pretty much at odds with everything that liberalism stands for socially, is a registered Democrat. The shame I feel right now is immeasurable...
Step 1. Get a dictionary.
Step 2. Look up "liberal."
Step 3. Read it.
Step 4. STFU. (Come to think of it, maybe you should start with this one.)

I know it's a Godwin, but here's my idea of the 1930's version of this statement:
"Of course the Nazis are liberal. They hate America. They say "God Hates America". Who cares if they also say that God hates Jews? Who cares if they're also doing God's work by exterminating filthy Jews? Hatred of America is liberal, period. The admins were right to lock the page. You seem to forget that children are reading this site, and they might be confused if we give then too much conflicting information."
Oh noes, not conflicting information. We wouldn't want them to think for themselves!
Hatred of America is a Muslim thing. And not all Muslims either, only the ones living in countries bombed by the US. Oh, wait, that is quite a few of them...
I think some 90 % of the liberals love America. And very few disrespects the American troops, as far as I understand it. It's the war they do not want, but that has nothing to do with the troops. I detest war, but I still think that the men and women in the troops should be treated well. They are not the ones who started the war, they are only doing their job.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
