Lampanelli -- Westboro Protest = $44,000 for Charity

Quote:
5/21/2011 7:56 AM PDT by TMZ Staff
Lisa Lampanelli counted 44 protestors from the Westboro Baptist Church at her show last night -- so, as promised, she's donating $44,000 to a gay rights charity in their name.


Lisa said she'd fork over $1,000 to the Gay Men's Health Crisis for every protestor that showed up to her show in Topeka, Kansas -- home of the WBC -- as a way of sticking it to the anti-gay group.

After the show, she tweeted, "Thanks to these a-holes, $44,000 will be donated to the GMHC!!!"
LOL, you go Lisa!

I hope Westboro gets an annual Christmas card from the GMHC thanking them for their generosity

Good.

It's about time someone started calling out these liberal democrats at the Westboro Baptist Church.

Some college kid had similar idea, he set up stand for donations near their protest.

Wrong.

Fred Phelps, their leader, is an active member of the Democrat Party. Even run for governor a few times.

I don't think their ideals conform to anyone in the mainstream, having said that Phelps is a Democrat.

Was that really necessary? Is that all you people ever equate anything to is political idealogies?
