Westboro Baptist Church is protesting......Drew Carey????
« on: Jun 13, 2012, 04:53:53 PM »
But what was really low is that they took a jab at Wayne Brady:

Phelps-Roper, referring to a comedy show Drew Carey previously hosted, added, “The fool has replaced the Lord with “Whose Line is it Anyway?,” but mocking God doesn't cut it. You'll have to account for how you used your resources to mock God and Wayne Brady won't be there to help.”

Man, they are treading on thin ice mocking Wayne Brady like that.

I'm really not surprised.  They'll protest anything they think will get them in the spotlight.  Talk about attention seeking drama queens :P

They protested Adam Carolla because he's an open atheist.

They're probably just protesting Drew Carey because he owns the Seattle Sounders, whose awesomeness disproves the existence of gods.

It is somewhat surprising because they're so late to the Drew Carey bandwagon, did his career peak like 10 years ago?

Shouldn't they have done this earlier, like when people still remembered who Drew Carey was?

And I don't get the Wayne Brady comment.  It's like Phelps-Roper thinks Brady could somehow help Carey at judgment day but won't?  I'd think they'd hate Brady even more since he plays a married gay man raising an infant daughter on "How I Met Your Mother."

It's common knowledge that Wayne Brady is a badass who actually stopped the last judgement day by eating the horses of the apocalypse.

Dude, Fred Phelps is like a billion years old and an ex-pill popper.  I'm sure his brain cells are just now getting around to processing the 1990s.

Maybe they will attack Babylon-5 next?

This is both ridiculous and 5 years late.  I literally laughed out loud at this.  Well played Westboro Baptist Church, clearly you get comedy.

same here. If it had been anyone but a Phelps saying it, I would have thought this was an example of Poe's law.

Pffile.  Haven't you heard of this show called Star Trek!  They don't mention Jesus once during the entire run of that show.
