While I don't agree with him, it is a free country and I support his right to say/feel that way. I think he was suspended as a way to placate those who will get pissed off about this, but he will be back. I also don't think this will have much of an affect on their viewership. My understanding is that much of their audience is made up of conservatives and religious people so I would think many of them would agree with him.

People should be able to say whatever the the fuck they want to say without fear of losing their job -- even if it is ignorant.

Their ratings will go up. Gays will grow crazy beards and wear his T-shirts.

Their viewership is mostly homophobic religious gun nuts so I don't think they are going to lose much.

They asked the new pope, what did you think of gay priests he said, Who am I to judge? That's a real christian, the rest just use it as a excuse to judge others.

Good for him speaking his opinion....nothing worse than a person being politically correct to not hurt feelings.
I say fuck that politically correct bullshit and say how you really feel, if no one likes it, tough....:2 cents: |

I wasn't on a pedestal, I was making a joke Mr Sensitivity. :winkwink: I do believe Phil Robertson meant something in defense of his anti-gay stance along the lines of, if people accept homosexuality, it's not long (down a slippery slope) until they are accepting bestiality, inferring that people whom support gay rights, including gay marriage, somehow are connected with supporters of bestiality. I'm pretty sure that is what some of the backlash is about. :2 cents: I did not suspend or even call for the suspension of Phil Robertson, although frankly I am not surprised that he was suspended for his remarks. Several other public commentators have been suspended in recent years for going against the guidelines/grain of their corporate sponsors (not government censors, which of course keeps getting insinuated). Of course some people will take any such inflammatory comments out of context, and satire by its nature is exaggeration, so don't be shocked that I would post a funny photo (to some) suggesting hypocrisy, and poking satirical fun back at the Duck Dynasty dude. I've never seen the show, nor care to, however it appears to be about the (mis)adventures of some yokels that sell duck calls. Since apparently I have to spell it out to some, the humor/irony in the photo that I posted is that the Duck Dynasty apparently sells devices that are intended to sexually (or otherwise) attract ducks, after which the ducks are fucked - literally since they are lured to their death if the hunter is successful, and figuratively with a double entendre suggesting that the ducks are sexually abused, similar to the slippery slope that Robertson made when he suggested any connection whatsoever between supporters of gay rights and supporters of bestiality. If any of your websites were suggested to be connected to bestiality, I'm sure that you would be equally offended (well, if you were honest with yourself). Even the people making feeble efforts at attacking me, made jokes about people/themselves sodomizing animals (cow, goats), yet suddenly it is offensive when I post an image mocking much the same thing. :1orglaugh :helpme Quote:

He'll get rehired or Fox will pick him up, otherwise I suspect the Koch Brothers et al to soon be around financing a network of all shows with messages that support their own ideology (I mean besides Fox). No doubt there is a big market in peddling Jebus. :winkwink: Oh yeah, and I expect someone to write a country song about this whole thing (although probably not the Dixie Chicks). :upsidedow http://images.cheezburger.com/comple...c9e56a210b.jpg BTW, in case anyone actually cares, here is what silver-tongued Phil Robertson had to say today about the reaction to his comments and suspension: Quote:

What do you expect when you ask an uneducated piece of shit their opinion on any topic?
The answer should not surprise anyone except those with even less intelligence than that asshole who was asked. I for one do not care what that sub-human creature who lives in a swamp has to say or thinks. |
Bla, bla, bla

HOWEVER, common sense should tell someone who is in the public eye and is making a living on a shitty reality show that has a very limited lifespan to keep that shit to themselves and play nice when asked controversial questions if you want to keep that pay check and your 15 minutes of fame going for 5 more minutes before the next mindless fool is being filmed. |

i couldn't care less if your offended. or not offended or wtf-ever. just like i couldn't careless what some random person on tele says that makes it to cnn.
nevertheless, twisting that post around is bizarre. |
these guys on the show seem to be the grown-up equivalent to honey boo boo, yet somehow we're all supposed to look to them for enlightened words of wisdom.
why? becuase they're on tv? so's honey boo boo. |
i'm also struggling to see where i was a hypocrite here. oh i know where, no where.

Now we know why there is no "Duck Dynasty Phil Chia Pet" this xmas.
In other Chia Pet news they are repacking Chia Willie with new instructions to cover the entire top of the head including the headband with seeds and calling it the "Zac Brown Chia Pet". |

and another fun fact you might want to know is ALL of his sons went to and finished college.. And get this they are ALL married to their first wives. I have np with gays and I'm the farthest thing from religious but this show is a great show about good clean family values. In the show he doesn't preach the bible but they all give life lessons with humor. Another little known fact is last year phil got mad at A&E because they were adding BEEPs into footage where they weren't using foul language.. I mean come on these people never use cuss words and A&E actually adds beeps to make them look like they were. |

From Wikipedia: Hitler emphasised that Nazism was a secular ideology founded on modern science.[135] In a diary entry of 28 December 1939, Joseph Goebbels wrote that "the Fuhrer passionately rejects any thought of founding a religion. He has no intention of becoming a priest. His sole exclusive role is that of a politician."[136] In Hitler's political relations dealing with religion he readily adopted a strategy "that suited his immediate political purposes."[137] According to Marshall Dill, one of the greatest challenges the Nazi state faced in its effort to "eradicate Christianity in Germany or at least subjugate it to their general world outlook" was that the Nazis could not justifiably connect German faith communities to the corruption of the old regime, Weimar having no close connection to the churches.[138] Because of the long history of Christianity in Germany, Hitler could not attack Christianity as openly as he did Judaism, Communism or other political opponents.[138] The list of Nazi affronts to and attacks on the Catholic Church is long.[139] The attacks tended not to be overt, but were still dangerous; believers were made to feel that they were not good Germans and their leaders were painted as treasonous and contemptible.[139] The state removed crucifixes from the walls of Catholic classrooms and replaced it with a photo of the Führer.[140] more here |

Not on this topic but just shit in general I rarely sugar coat anything and I'm sure I've hurt some peoples feelings. Prefer this though so people know where ya stand and it eliminates all the guessing games. Shoot straight and if their butt gets sore most will get over it and sometimes people need to hear reality over what makes them feel good/happy. |
Hitler, who in his bookhaMein Kampfhasaid: "I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord

I think you're just butt-hurt that someone can have an OPINION that is not the status-quo right now about homosexuality. |
Don't understand why everyone is so shocked. Imagine a swamp billy with a beard to his navel, dressed in head-to-toe camo saying that is is all in for gay marriage and so forth. That would be so good for the brand. Pink camo next season?
FYI: 99% of duck calls hunters use in America mimic feeding ducks not breeding ducks. Most seasons end (Dec - Jan) before breeding begins. **This applies only to heterosexual ducks. |

the only thing worse than a bigot is a cowardly bigot. So I applaud this bigot for wearing his bigotry on his sleeve and exposing himself to the world as a proud bigot. He came out of the bigotry closet if you will...

I'll say it again I'm not religious at all and the last time I was in a church not for a wedding was probably 20 years ago but this is a decent show. It pisses me off that people like Miley can do and say whatever the hell they want but you have a god loving guy say his belief based on the bible and he gets shit canned? |

So there is quite a bit of difference between acting like a spoiled foulmouthed pop singer and someone using religion as an excuse for hate. :thumbsup |

I think the A&E suspension of him was simply a way to help squash some potential backlash and controversy around it. I think he will either release a somewhat vague apology and be back on the show soon or they will just quietly put him back on the show. In the end it is all about money and A&E isn't going to mess with their cash cow. For the life of me I can't see what people see in this show. I'm not opposed to the guys or the message or any of that, but I tried to watch two episodes to get a taste of it and it was so fake and clearly set up then poorly executed that it was unwatchable. |
