Whew. I feel better now. Might as well pry the lid off the drum of bubbling duck-stupid.
‘Duck Dynasty’ Star Phil Robertson Fired Following Anti-Gay Remarks
Variety ^ | Dec. 18, 2013 | AJ MarechalPosted on 12/18/2013 6:47:00 PM by Blue Turtle
“Duck Dynasty” star Phil Robertson has been fired from the reality program following his controversial remarks in GQ magazine regarding homosexuality.
A+E Networks, parent company of A&E, has released the following statement to Variety:
“We are extremely disappointed to have read Phil Robertson’s comments in GQ, which are based on his own personal beliefs and are not reflected in the series Duck Dynasty. His personal views in no way reflect those of A+E Networks, who have always been strong supporters and champions of the LGBT community.”

Atrios asked me (on Facebook) if the Freeperati were “freeping out” over this. My reply:
“And I was going to take a break. This always happens.”

To: SalamanderIf you’re REALLY outraged, cancel your cable. Yeah…that’s happening. That is why the left has conservatives on the run…all talk, no action.

To: Responsibility2ndThe trouble is, the only way a cable-only network can crash and burn is if the reaction is so strong is that folks cancel the whole cable bundle that includes it to drop the channel. Of course, this should accelerate the decision of folks to “cut the cable”, but I’m not sure that can hurt Hearst’s and Disney’s bottom line enough to harm the A&E brand in the estimation of its owners.

To: IamConservativePhil answers to the ultimate HIGHER POWER . forget A & E. . With his stand for his belief in Christ Jesus and his testimonies and good will, Phil will have some crowns to lay down at the foot of Jesus. That really is what life is all about. . . witnessing to others so that they will have eternal life in heaven.
May he and his family continue to stand up for their beliefs! Our country is going down fast . . .God will not be mocked!
To: skeeterAre you kidding me?The left is really asking for it.
The problem is the left has been receiving what they ask for.The sad truth is that Phil would not be penalized for saying what he did if his show was carried on lets say a Russian TV network, but he is here in the land of freedom. Scary stuff indeed.
