Nancy Pelosi Meet the Late Fred Phelps

Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, meet the late Fred Phelps, from Independent(UK) [1]:

Fred Phelps, founder of the infamous Westboro Baptist Church, and the “Gods Hate Fags” fundamentalist movement, has died, according to his son, Timothy Phelps. He was 84.

The highly controversial anti-gay extremist had in recent years been excommunicated from the church that he founded.
Phelps gained notoriety though protesting at the funerals of gay people and American soldiers by holding signs saying “God Hates Fags” and “Thank God for 9/11.”

If the late Mr. Phelps didn’t have bad taste, he would not have any taste at all. He would pick an adverse outcome for a group for which he opposed, stage a tasteless protest and call that outcome a sign from God.

Oh the other hoof, Mrs. Pelosi, the professed Catholic, does not invoke a theological god, but rather the secular Mother Nature. Yet Mrs. Pelosi has no more cause and effect relationship than the late Mr. Phelps, via Watts Up With That [2]:

Pelosi: ‘Mother Earth Is Angry — She’s Telling Us with Hurricanes on the Gulf Coast, Fires in the West’

by JEFF POOR 10 Sep 2020

Thursday on MSNBC’s “The Reidout,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) attributed the wildfires plaguing her state and hurricanes that have batter the Gulf Coast to so-called climate change.

According to Pelosi, the natural disasters were a sign that “Mother Earth is angry.”

If California thinks wildfires are so bad, she could practice some management like periodic cleaning of forest underbrush.  However the watermelons who control California are opposed to forest management as well.  Oh well!
