I don't care what he says.
My comments were focused on why more people don't see through his transparent veil of bigotry.
I know there will always be bigots - and somebody with a history of being a Nazi, well, LOL, chances are they are well-versed in it.
But OTHERS who hear it - why are they so blinded that they don't hear the idiocy of the statements made?

I'm not concerned about Phelps - his motley crew just got handed a multi-million dollar bill for being a'holes ... I think he's going to have other fish to fry other than gay couples.

Bigotry is a social disease.

Legalized same-sex marriage almost certainly benefits those same-sex couples who choose to marry, as well as the children being raised in those homes. - David Blankenhorn is president of the New York-based Institute for American Values and the author of "The Future of Marriage."
