Fred Phelps Gets His Day In Supreme Court

Hoo-ah! It’s the beginning of the end for Snyder v. Phelps, the fight between the father of Matthew Snyder, the Maryland Marine killed in Iraq, and Fred Phelps’ Westboro Baptist Church. The Supreme Court today hears oral arguments from each side in a lovely showdown over the First Amendment. Who will prevail! Who will be defeated! Why is there not a voiceover announcer screaming “Lets get ready to rumble!”
