3. Phelps should have been Bush's "Willie Horton".
Edited on Mon Nov-29-04 10:11 AM by Flammable Materials
The Democrats should have used Fred Phelps in anti-Bush ads, to show what the Republicans anti-gay agenda is like without the pleasant face and newspeak.

EDIT: Actually, it could still be used. The first half of the ad could focus on Fred Phelps and the WBC, and the second half of the ad could focus on Jerry Falwell's comment that gays and lesbians "made God mad" and caused 9/11. The end tagline could point out that, in reality, there is no difference between "extremist" Fred Phelps, and "mainstream" Jerry Falwell and Bush's anti-gay agenda.
