Again back to the whole freedom of speech thing. The problem is the millions of people that actually listen to them and take what they say as gospel without a second thought.
Which is the exact reason why Robertson's speech has been condemned so vociferously. He's a celebrity too and no different that Sheen when it comes to scrutiny. They live off being famous. They make money from it. From that fame comes benefits, but also scrutiny.
It has been? By whom? gladd? lol.
I don't watch this show, but I've certainly read enough about it recently, do you really equate this guys "celebrity" with some asshat like Charlie Sheen? You really think this guy gives a rip what you and your cabal of professionally offended may think about him.
As far as living off "being famous" are you even kidding here? Sheen? Yes, out of the spotlight for better or worse and he's out of work. The DD guy? Not even close. the show generates 200 grand an episode for the entire family, or cast, whatever it is. My understanding is they make a hell of a lot more than that from selling their duck calls and stuff and have been for years before their little A & E foray.
And you don't want scrutiny, you want scorn, and public ridicule and embarrassment. All with the misguided notion that that will somehow engender support and perhaps sympathy for your so called "cause", whatever that is.
If you call me a murderer and a terrorist, I'm going to condemn you and attempt to do whatever little I can do to condemn those that provide you with a platform for doing so. Phil's been doing this for a while.
Where is it he says that dumbas$, idiot, homosexuals are murderers and a terrorists?

I'm not willing to go that far, but I do again think he's being misinterpreted to hear what people want to hear.

RE: Duck Dynasty Backlash.... Backlash
Amazingly posted the 20th by "hollywood life". Funny where's this been all this time? That shows been on fr a while now and suddenly *poof* this appears. Why was it under wraps for so long if it's this inflammatory to some?
Didn't listen, no time, but not buying the intentions here off hand.

Post the entire video Lazybrook.
Grad and Tom keep saying the same damn things. They either cannot comprehend, like to lie and parrot leftist talking points, or enjoy being entirely clueless.
