15. Two thoughts...
Yes, on one level, they deserve to be ignored. But on the other level, Bush got a second term for two reasons. First, voter fraud and voting machines...and I don't believe we will EVER know all of the details on that.

But second, and equally as important, Rove corralled the "Fundamentalist Christian" voters. Westboro Baptist voters are Bush voters. Westboro is getting headlines, but they are not the only whack job "Christian" sect out there.

By keeping a spotlight on these bastards, it sheds light on the true face of Bush's "Christian Voting Base." Maybe it will turn off a few true Christian voters when they see what's under the hood.

Look at how quickly the Southern Baptist Convention kicked Frist to the curb when he changed his position on stem cell research. This is an uneasy marriage at best (NeoCons and Fundies) and we need to keep shaking the cage.
