They're the duck-calling, bird-hunting, ratings-busting phenomenon known as "Duck Dynasty."

The patriarch, Phil Robertson, leads the down-to-earth millionaires for the everyman clan into the homes of millions each week, and ever by his side is wife Kay.

But now, audiences are getting a rare glimpse at their life before fame and fortune, seeing the demons that preceded the dynasty in a candid new film out this week by the Christian group "I Am Second."

Phil says all the credit goes to God.

"We would all be better off if we loved God," he said, "and loved each other."

AMEN!

God, shmod...the Duck doofuses got a pro-amnesty, pro-ObamaCare RINO elected to the Congress who never otherwise would have had a chance, simply because Vince McAllister was “the least experienced candidate”. That worked SO well with Obama, right?

McAllister is neither pro-amnesty nor pro-Obamacare. Quite the opposite, in fact.

Solzhenitsyn declared:

Over a half century ago, while I was still a child, I recall hearing a number of old people offer the following explanation for the great disasters that had befallen Russia: “Men have forgotten God; that’s why all this has happened.”

Well if someone is going to go full-on retard and hijack a thread in the most stupidest way ever - it might as well be you.

Riser and McAllister are both conservatives and largely agreed on many issues. Both oppose abortion, favor strong gun rights and criticize the levels of federal spending and debt.

Their sharpest distinction rested with President Barack Obama’s signature health care law.

Both opposed the health overhaul, but Riser wanted only repeal, saying the law will harm businesses and families and can't be fixed.

McAllister said repeal had no chance with Democrats leading the Senate and White House, so he said Congress should work to improve the law. He also wants Louisiana to expand its Medicaid program to give insurance to the working poor, an expansion that Riser opposes.

The positions put McAllister at odds with some tea party supporters but generated support from Democrats who had no candidate of their own in the runoff.

The Duck Dynasty Doofus endorsed and swung the election of a pro-amnesty RINO who wants to surrender on ObamaCare...

McAllister on amnesty: "The current system is broken and unfair. We have to secure the borders, but citizenship has to be attainable for those people already here”

McAllister surrendering on ObamaCare: "I would love to take an eraser and repeal it, but we can't. Obamacare is a nightmare, but it’s a reality, and it’s here. So if you have to live with it, we have to make it livable. " McAllister said, according to The News-Star.

McAllister also SUPPORTS the expansion of Medicare under ObamaCare in Louisiana! This is NO conservative worth Ted Cruz' admiration.

And here is a release from the largest proamnesty group there is praising McAllister's election: "NEW LOUISIANA CONGRESSMAN VANCE MCALLISTER BECOMES 29TH HOUSE REPUBLICAN TO SUPPORT PATHWAY TO CITIZENSHIP FOR UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS"

Maybe that's why the NRA, FreedomWorks, RedState and the Tea Party supported his opponent. But the Duck Doofus is FAMOUS, so let's listen to him instead! Pathetic. You can admire all the God reference you want - and it's great to have more of it among celebs. But this is SERIOUS now, with a pathetically ignorant celeb swinging elections against our interests as conservatives.

My point was I was all for the Robertsons bringing God back into the celebrity world...until they started putting RINOs into office.

I keep saying that libs heads explode when they watch this show between the guns being fired and ducks, beavers, etc being killed.

The men openly talk about killing animals. Just waiting on PETA to jump on them.

The feminists will be jumping up and down over Ms Kay being in the kitchen all the time.

I love the show!

If you plan to discount a persons Christianity because they voted for or helped a RINO at some point in their life then your church is going to be awfully empty.

A man is judged by his words. I do understand the point you were trying to make, but your very choice of first words to me destroy your argument from the get go.

Awhile back, some vegan singer named Morrissey canceled his appearance on the Jimmy Kimmel show. He canceled because Duck Dynasty was also scheduled to appear.

At the end of this clip you'll see Duck Dynasty's answer to that controversy:

Duck Dynasty for Vegans
