Unless you live in a remote cave, you have heard about Duck Dynasty patriarch Phil Robertson’s comments about the homosexual lifestyle. I told myself that I would not weigh in on this, but here goes.
A&E has suspended Robertson from the biggest cable TV show in history, because they say his comments might be offensive to the gay community. Now, Cracker Barrel has pulled some Duck Dynasty merchandise from its shelves in a move not to offend some of their guests.
Both of these moves have confused and infuriated millions and will certainly cost both companies millions if not billions of dollars. All of this because a strong Christian man stood up for what he believes and said so when asked by not to be mentioned magazine.
Meanwhile back at the left wing ranch. Obama buddy Louis Farrakhan calls for gays to be beheaded and stoned in accordance with Islamic teaching. The silence about this in the media is predictable.
I have never watched Duck Dynasty, but I understand that it is a traditional family show, so what would you expect Mr. Robertson to respond when asked his opinion. Maybe he could have used different words, but he is who he is. He does have a right to free speech - at least he is supposed to. Just as Mr. Farrakham has.
And now, Charlie Sheen has weighed in on the side of gay community as a self proclaimed spokesman for those that cannot speak for themselves.
See why this post is titled "Quacks?" They ain’t the ones with the duck calls.
