For those a little slow on the uptake.

Should be sent to all of your knee jerk Teabagger relatives and friends immediately.

Or you could just hang onto until that special moment during Christmas dinner when Uncle Cletus starts in on the liberal takeover the country and how poor ole God fearing Phil Robertson was the victim of the gay agenda.

Up to you.

By the way apparently A&E warned Robertson to keep his big homophobic mouth shut.

    I just hope their contracts have in place a non competitive clause that would prevent them from going to other networks. The clause would eventually expire but at least their crap would be off television for a few years.

      Unfortunately, TexasMel, the networks will show whatever garbage the population WANTS to see as far as garbage is concerned. All of the reality shows are garbage in my book, but the intelligence level of way too many people is so low they adore crap like DD!

      It's one of the reasons I got rid of TV service entirely in my house! I have far more important things to do than waste my time with crap.

      Guess where the quacker is going...Fox

      Coming Soon To Fox News: Dick Dynasty With ‘Hateful Phil’ Robertson

      "Fox News has announced the signing of former Duck Dynasty patriarch Phil Robertson to an exclusive contract to host a new program on the cable news network.

      Fox News CEO Roger Ailes is said to have personally directed the Robertson signing. It is consistent with his philosophy of demonizing the gay community that he lived in fear of, and built a bomb-proof office to protect himself from. Likewise, his security measures shielded him from dark-skinned and Muslim people of whom he was also afraid.....

      ....With Robertson’s addition to the Fox family, Ailes will have another ideological ally to advance his Tea Party agenda. Plus, there will be an experienced marksman in the building in the event of an attempt on on his life or an outbreak of civil unrest. Insiders are speculating that the new program will have spring premiere so as not to interfere with duck season."

    Robertson broke his contract. He is not a stupid man, some people are slow to understand the TV character and that reality TV is not reality.

    _Phil and other family members also probably signed contracts containing "morals clauses" in which they promised to, among other things, avoid anything that would embarrass or bring shame to A&E or the brand. Such clauses are standard in the entertainment and sports industries._

    Con Maroons will not get it. They are on a mission. They want to denigrate GLAAD. Sarah and Bristol are chasing this one for sure. Who wooda thunk Bristol's misinformation blog at 777 Comments thanks to ducks. She spills on her hate and it is all about a community that she falsely portrays.

    The Robertsons have more in common with the Palins. Buy people off and skip jail and apologies.

    On his violent past:
    During Phil’s darkest days, in the early 1970s, he had to flee the state of Arkansas after he badly beat up a bar owner and the guy’s wife. Kay Robertson persuaded the bar owner not to press charges in exchange for most of the Robertsons’ life savings. (“A hefty price,” he notes in his memoir.) I ask Phil if he ever repented for that, as he wants America to repent—if he ever tracked down the bar owner and his wife to apologize for the assault. He shakes his head. “I didn’t dredge anything back up. I just put it behind me.”

    Even more troubling was the scene from Bristol Palin: Life’s A Tripp in which Palin’s then 3-year-old son appears to call his aunt Willow Palin a “faggot.” In another blog post written to “set the record straight” following that incident, Palin insisted her son had “used a different ‘f word.’

      Charlie claims he's only voicing his opinion out of the blue for one reason ... to stick up for all his gay friends whose voices are not as powerful.

    Log Cabin Republicans Suggest Holding 'Moonshine Summit' With Duck Dynasty Family

    The nation's largest Republican organization for LGBT Americans has reached out to Phil Robertson and the "Duck Dynasty" family, suggesting that they all get together for a "Moonshine Summit" to work out their differences.

    Log Cabin Republicans Executive Director Gregory T. Angelo released a statement on Friday in response to the controversy over Robertson's suspension over anti-gay remarks.

    “Let’s put an end to all of the fussing and feuding and talk about this like adults. Phil, you have your views and we have ours, but I think you’d be surprised how much we all have in common, and there’s no better gay folk out there to make that case than Log Cabin Republicans. We’re conservative, we’re guided by our faith, and we believe in freedom of speech. Most important, we are all children of God; that’s the most important thing we have in common. So in the spirit of the season, let’s get together — your family and ours — raise a glass, and work this out.”

    A&E has indefinitely suspended the "Duck Dynasty" star Phil Robertson after the anti-gay comments appeared in an interview with GQ magazine for the January 2014 issue.

    In the Log Cabin Republicans' initial statement responding to the "Duck Dynasty" controversy, Angelo said that Robertson's comments should spark a conversation, rather than unequivocal condemnation.

    "What Phil Robertson’s comments highlight is the need to engage the evangelical Christian community on the importance of gay acceptance. The knee-jerk reaction from the left shows that their strategy to engage evangelicals is to ignore them or shout them down, but that’s no way to win allies," said Angelo.

    Twas The (Republican) Night Before Christmas.

    ‘Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the House
    Not a bill was debated, thanks to an orange souse;

    The interns were stuffed in the offices with care,
    In hopes that no journalists would make them share;

    The lobbyists were counting their dough in their beds;
    While visions of special bills danced in their heads;

    And Michele with her corn dog, and King with his hate,
    Had just muddled our brains, and sealed our fate,

    When out on the steps there arose such a clatter,
    John sprang from his bed to see what was the matter.

    Away through the hallways he flew like a flash,
    Threw open the doors and dropped some spare cash.

    When what to John’s booze-reddened eyes did appear,
    But a beat-up old Chevy and a man with a tear,

    And a little old lady who shivered with cold,
    John wished to ignore her, and anyone old.

    More vapid than Bill-O John’s colleagues they came,
    And he mumbled, and cried, and called them by name:

    “Now, Denham! now, Duncan! now Perry and Olson!
    On, Cantor! on, Chaffetz! on, Duffy and Hudson!

    To the floor of the House! to the gallery, too!
    Don’t let the poor and ill try to sway you!”

    So up to the top of the Capitol they rose
    While avoiding the poor folk who slowly froze.

    “We Don’t want to know,” they cried as they went
    “If poor folk are starving or can’t make rent.”

    As they drew in their heads, ignoring the sounds,
    More needy surrounded the Capitol grounds.

    They were dressed all in rags, from their head to their foot,
    And their clothes were all coated with ashes and soot;

    A bundle of sticks one slung on his back
    For fire, as money for heating they lack.

    Their eyes—they were sunken! their hair very dirty
    Their homes had been taken, it was not very pretty.

    Their lips were drawn closed tight like a bow,
    As they tried to shake off the cold and snow;

    The sick folk had suffered and lost their good cheer,
    That they needed insurance was really quite clear.

    The hungry had barely any food in their bellies;
    Not even some smelly old government cheese.

    Yet John Boehner’s colleagues were very well-fed,
    And had warm homes and comfortable beds;

    The closing of eyes and votes for no help,
    Soon gave us to know they were all for themselves;

    They spoke no good word, but went straight to their work,
    And slashed all the programs; making each one a jerk,

    And doing the bidding of Walton and Koch,
    Put the whole Middle Class in a horrible yoke;

    They vote for the money and care for the rich,
    And call unemployed folks “you sonuvabitch.”

    But we vote next year to replace those on the right—
    So, “Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!”

    Duck Dynasty Clan Falsely Playing ‘First Amendment’ Card – Threaten To Quit

    When you’re worth, collectively, several hundred million dollars, you get used to not having to play by anyone’s rules but your own. And when you own your own business, are heralded as heroes of (self-described) red-neck America, you live in Louisiana — where the governor doesn’t understand the First Amendment — it’s almost understandable that you’d do what Phil Robertson’s “Duck Dynasty” clan just did: threaten to walk.

    To recap, for those who were asleep the past 48 hours, the father on A&E’s “reality” show, “Duck Dynasty,” Phil Robertson, in an interview with GQ magazine, compared homosexuality to bestiality, adultery, prostitution, alcoholism, lying, stealing — and terrorism. He also, unsurprisingly, said gay people are not going to heaven.

    (And then there was that whole race-baiting or flat-out racist bit.)

    And he used the Bible to further attack LGBT people.

    All this, according to the anti-gay and religious right, is Phil Robertson’s First Amendment constitutionally-protected right to free speech.

    But, of course, many who believe in the Bible never really read it, and many who wave the American flag never really read the Constitution.

    Phil Robertson has not been censored by the government — which the Constitution protects against. The Constitution does not give anyone the right to mouth-off, denigrate an entire class of people, lie, and promote false and dated stereotypes, under the guise of “religious liberty,” and face zero consequences from the free market, or from the company that signs your paycheck.

    Now, the Duck Dynasty clan is fighting back.

    “We are disappointed that Phil has been placed on hiatus for expressing his faith, which is his constitutionally protected right,” the Duck Dynasty clan writes on their website — their store, which makes them untold millions annually, and many millions more, now that they are right-wing celebrities backed by Sarah Palin and Ted Cruz.

    Of course, Phil has no “constitutionally protected right” to say what he said, or anything else — during the course of an interview — and no right from his employer responding as they did, which was to suspend him indefinitely.

    “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

    That, my friends, as you know, is the First Amendment.

    The “Congress shall make no law” part means that the government cannot control your speech — but your employer certainly can. And it does not give you an automatic “get out of jail free” card to use your religion, whatever it happens to be, to speak without repercussion.

    As I said to some on Twitter last night, it is astonishing that those who defend pure unadulterated ignorance as “biblical” and “free speech” assume it should have no consequences.

    Meanwhile, back to the Ducksters.

    As news spread last night that A&E had suspended the “Duck Dynasty” dad, Phil Robertson, over his ugly and graphic anti-gay remarks, from Sarah Palin to the National Organization For Marriage to the Westboro Baptist Church, the entire right wing anti-gay hate machine exploded into action.

    Vowing to boycott A&E (which, ironically would include and damage “Duck Dynasty”), screaming that Obama instead of Robertson should have been “fired,” and other illogical and ill-thought reactions, the right is clearly out-of-control furious.

    Sigh.

    I'm so sick and tired of looking at this ignoramus's mug on the net, television, and hearing about it in the media. The local Target Store refused to carry Beyonce's new album because she had the ballz to release it on I tunes first. Today, they were kissing customer's asses because their system got hacked, and they were offering ten percent off your entire purchase. I saw a bunch of "true believers" snapping photos of Target employees boxing up "Duck Dynasty" branded merchandise, for whatever reason.
    I looked on the local news channels to see the coverage or read about the "outrage" and there was nada, zip, zero, nothing at all.

    If a store has merchandise and it isn't moving, they have every right to send it back, donate it, toss it in the trash etc..... I hope this marks the beginning of the end for DD. Sign every petition against them. Wanna be reality show rednecks? Go ahead. Wanna be Right Wing Bible Thumpers? Go ahead. Just don't do both. You're messing with kid's minds and robbing them of their childhood, not to mention offending a majority of Americans.

    According to the UK Daily Mail the DD family is angry at
    A / E because they
    allowed Phil to have freedom of speech.
    Apparently, A / E should have stepped in and muzzled Phil-
    in other words, A / E should have violated his First Amendment right to free speech.
    You can't make this stuff up.
    The family thinks the " New York types "
    at A / E ( code for Jews ) " set Phil up "
    by allowing him to talk to the interviewer from GQ.

      Did A&E forget to change his diapers? LOL. Why did Ms. Kay let him out of her sight? Wasn't Willie baby sitting that day?

    How come we haven't heard from the Graham family or Phil on their thoughts of Sarah sleeping with a black man. Phil would say it is against the Bible teachings. I am sure if Graham read the part about Phil's beastiality, virginas and anas bans in the bible, we will not hear from him because it is not in the bible and the Graham's will not comment on this at all.
