"[Fred Phelps is] a nut on the political fringe. His idea of political action is disrupting funerals to bring attention to himself. Senator Dole's record speaks for itself. He strongly opposed President Clinton's effort to lift the ban on gays in the military, and he has used his campaign for the presidency to elevate moral issues to the forefront of the national debate. But we want nothing to do with those who promote a militant agenda of hate."

--Scott Reed, Bob Dole's presidential-campaign manager, when told that notorious anti-gay Kansas preacher Fred Phelps planned to picket Dole for not being anti-gay-enough.
