Three… two… one… and… does anyone really care?

 The controversial Westboro Baptist Church is vowing to picket the impending funeral of ‘Glee’ star Cory Monteith.

And a nation gets to… yawn?  But at least makes some sort of sense.  (It’s always interesting to note that Westboro has a better grip of pop culture than I myself was never paying attention to Cory Monteith’s romantic relations with Lea Michele).  A bit more puzzling is this, which is a “Westboro Baptist” news item that will get a lot less attention.:

Jethro Tull frontman Ian Anderson can now be added to the ever-growing list of musical acts receiving pre-show protests from the Westboro Baptist Church.
Prior to Anderson’s show at Kansas City, Missouri’s Kauffman Theatre on Saturday night, a group from the Topeka, Kansas based extremist church protested outside the concert, citing Anderson as a “representative of a world of perverse adulterers who have enabled & justified fags.”

It’s just because he happens to be in town.  If Pat Boone were making an appearance, they’d protest him too.  Also it may also be because … you know… Westboro Baptist doesn’t like Heavy Metal music.
