''I have a license in the United States Supreme Court. But I have a secret weapon, and her name is Marge, and she's my sister. She argued that case before the 4th Circuit.... You know last Wednesday they started marrying fags in DC.... I picketed when they did the Lawrence vs. Texas case.... What, are you kidding me? [Gay] enablers? Of the first water! They're the ones who crossed the line in Lawrence vs. Texas.... The question is, 'Can you prosecute people engaged in sodomy.' So, you understand, when they stick their noses into something that's not in front of them, those words are called 'dicta, obiter dicta....' I know that that one, that seems almost senile, frankly. I watched her on a NBC news report talking about her robe and the collar on her robe. And it was, frankly, shocking.... Ruth Bader Ginsberg, this woman used to be the head of the ACLU. Let me tell you how worried I am -- not at all! Because they're either going to obey the law of this nation, in which case, they're going to tell this nation of rebels that have got their britches in a bunch over these words on these signs on a public right-of-way obedient to the laws --. They're going to tell them, to drink a frosty mug of 'shut the hell up' and avert your eyes if you don't like those words.''

Shirley Phelps-Roper an attorney and family member from the infamous Westboro Baptist Church. She was speaking on the Midweek Politics Radio show about the Supreme Court's decision to hear a case involving her gay-hating family. They have picketed funerals of both gay people and non-gay people to bring attention to their unconscionable religious beliefs. The pending case primarily revolves around a event staged at soldier's funeral in Maryland, where they lost a multimillion dollar lawsuit, but later won an appeal. Here she demonstrates her family's knowledge of the law and their ability to argue endlessly about their rights to free speech. Phelps-Roper mentions that she has 11 children, two of whom appeared on the Tyra Banks show last year in a stunningly appalling segment. (Midweek Politics Radio)
