Peter LaBarbera of "Americans for Truth About Homosexuality," designated by the Southern Poverty Law Center as an anti-gay hate group, pondered on Twitter today whether Fred Phelps is a "gay plant," apparently staged by liberals trying to evoke sympathy for gays.
"Was that serious question about Fred Phelps? Really?" asked "AllHeavens" in a reply Tweet. As of this writing, there's no answer from LaBarbera.
Phelps is pastor and founder of the Westboro Baptist Church, known for its "protests" at military funerals and other events where church members parade their "God hates fags" and "God hates America" and "God hates Sweden" signs.
