Having apparently failed to fool border patrol officers into waving in their caravan of crazy, the Phelpses consequently couldn’t make it to a planned protest of a production of “The Laramie Project” in Red Deer, Manitoba (a play in which Phelps plays a primary role as villain during the funeral of Matthew Shepard) or at a production of a satirical play called “The Pastor Phelps Project” in Toronto-which we imagine is an occasion for Candadians to have a good long laugh about the silly shit that happens south of the border and how superiour they are, until they remember how boring life would be without our television, movies and drugged up celebrities.
But we’re starting to wonder, after the Phelpses also failied to appear, as planned, at either San Francisco City Hall or the Contra Costa County offices on the great gay marriage day of ’08 (they only passed through, on Gay Marriage Eve), and now failing to use their fundie wiles to get into Canada, if they aren’t falling off their game! There was a day when the Phelpses wouldn’t have let some stupid Canadian border patrol agents thwart their blessed message (“God Hates Fags,” in case you hadn’t heard). They would’ve gone all ninja on their asses and somersaulted into Cananda undetected.

Now I have not confirmed this, so it is fairly useless, but when talking to a friend of mine who is a Canadian he mentioned that they were some how not allowed to enter into Canada by a government order.
I wish we could exile the Phelps here too, I imagine I am not the only one who is a bit surprised that they haven’t all gone missing or found dead, considering how many military people they have pissed off.
The scene they made when they were turned away at the border must have been hilarious. I bet those Canadians got an earful of invective that they won’t soon forget. Your fave Shirl can scream like a banshee when you get her riled up. Good times.
