Karma Visits Westboro Baptist Church

I am a believer in karma, meaning that good things come eventually to good people and vice-versa. Well there are some putrid excuses for life on our planet and one group in particular is the Westboro Baptist Church. If you do not know already, their mission in life is to go around to military funerals and protest, chanting that those that died fell because America "allows" homosexuality. So they hold signs that say "God Hates Fags," nice, eh? Well I hate to see tragedy strike anyone, but karma made me chuckle a bit when I saw this.

From PageOneQ:

Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kansas, known for its vocal condemnations of homosexuality, website GodHatesFags.com and picketing of gay pride parades and funerals, has sustained thousands of dollars in damage after a fire early Saturday morning. Impromptu protest followed as firefighters carried out their response.

"None of what they do is going to stop us from delivering our message," said church counsel Shirley Phelps-Roper of any "cowards" that would have set the fire on purpose, also saying that it was the "most aggressive act" towards the Phelps family to date.

"There is evidence that hatred of our religion was the motivation, in part at least," states a "Civil Rights Hate Crime Complaint" written by pastor Fred Phelps Sr. to Attorney General Michael Mukasey. In a recently released YouTube presentation, Phelps also blames law enforcement, judges, and the "filthy, fag-riddled military" for what he considers an assault on his First Amendment rights.

Ah, the hypocrisy of it all. First amendment right, meh! As long as they get their rights and those they disagree with are denied theirs, Fred Phelps is a happy, hate-loving man. Then the story ends with a neighborly dispute over who's land is who's. One side claims the other burnt the church on purpose and in the end the environment loses with an additional few pounds of carbon in the atmosphere. Unfortunately though, this fire will not stop the hate pouring out from this particular loony bin.

Karma Visits Glenn Beck

Aww, the poor dear. It seems that Glenn Beck's recent surgery went awry and the obnoxious talk show host with the worst ratings on CNN/CNN Headline News was doused with drugs to stop his pain.

In all seriousness, I hope he recovers fully and leads a normal, happy life (I just want him out of the public's earshot). In this video he talked about contemplating suicide from the pain and is deciding whether he will "name names" on his come back show on January 7th. His YouTube site calls this a tease for his show, so talking about being some sort of anti-corporate born again might just be a cry for better ratings.

Bird Delivers Karma For The President

George Bush was busy telling a lie about Alberto Gonzales at a White House Press Conference outside the confines of the building. Karma took that opportunity to hit George with a bomb, of sorts. The weapon wasn't a B-2 Bomber or even a B-17, instead it took the form of a cute little sparrow. The bird was chirping in the trees above when Bush talked about his Attorney General.

From ABC's Political Radar:

As President Bush took a question Thursday in the White House Rose Garden about scandals involving his Attorney General, he remarked, "I've got confidence in Al Gonzales doin' the job."

Simultaneously, a sparrow flew overhead and left a splash on the President's sleeve, which Bush tried several times to wipe off.

Deputy White House Press Secretary Dana Perino promptly put the incident through the proper spin cycle, telling ABC News, "It was his lucky day...everyone knows that's a sign of good luck."

Perino tried to spin the event, but the bird shat on Bush for a reason. It was symbolic of how Bush bombs other countries, leaving the stain of an imperialist foreign policy that bullies the world with abandon. So as our footprint is creating chaos in the world, so did the little sparrow for George Bush and one of his expensive suits.
