Twitter Fight

Nothing better than a good old-fashioned twitter fight between a TV news anchor and a moron: MSNBC anchor in Twitter fight with anti-gay church that picketed Obama kids' school.

MSNBC anchor David Shuster noticed a recent Westboro Baptist Church protest outside of the school that Obama's kids attend. 

"Hopefully, some of the more rational conservatives/Republicans will condemn this stuff today," he wrote on his Twitter account.

Most conservative and Republican politicians have long worked to distance themselves from the group, not least because of its practice of picketing the funerals of US troops. But Shuster's Tweet set off an argument between the MSNBC reporter and Phelps-Roper.

Megan Phelps-Roper (shown here) is the granddaughter of Fred Phelps. She obviously got his stupid genes.

"Don't forget our Tuesday Sidwell picket," Phelps-Roper Tweeted at Shuster, in reference to the group's plans to picket the school again. "Put away your idols and obey God!"

"Go ahead," Shuster Tweeted back at Phelps-Roper. "Show the entire world the vile, crude, and disgusting protest you put on this [morning] at the Obama kids' school."

Here's the Twitter feed of the news anchor, and here's the Twitter feed of the moron.
