That isn’t really true. There are not two Americas. There is one America and one anti-America and never the twain shall meet.
.....just another facet of the attack on Christians. A set up, lead by GQ, to dampen the success of a very popular TV program where each episode ends with a prayer. They never stop.
I'll add the conflict of plain-speaking versus polite dissembling.
Dennis Prager has written about the two irreconcilable Americas.
Sacrificing truth on the alter of political correctness is what the left does and what it demands everyone else do as well.
"I think our governments will remain virtuous for many centuries as long as they are chiefly agricultural; and this will be as long as there shall be vacant lands in any part of America. When they get plied upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, they will become corrupt as in Europe."
Thomas Jefferson
What I don’t get is why a Christian would do an interview with such a godless, metrosexual magazine to begin with. You have to know that they will bait you with such trap questions.
Acceptable?? To whom?
I don't set my standards of acceptable conduct by the whims of effete urban socialists. Indeed, their conduct is generally UNacceptable in my part of WEST Virginia. Today's Acceptable Norms here include that faggotry is repulsive and sinful.
I do hope the rest of the family will support Phil in this matter, acknowledge the truthfulness of his words, & have A&E drop the whole show.
The big loser will be A&E. Phil & his family don’t need the money.
so....a Christian talks about his faith and what is acceptable and what isn’t - and he’s suspended...but any nut case anti-US - pro-death of babies is given any amount of air time to spouse their opinions and beliefs....uhm...
Seems like the shows popularity illustrates where the majority of viewers concentrate their belief system - and it’s not around the gay movement or abortion rights... A&E is in it for the money and could care less about promoting Christian values...same as TLC and their pedophile show Toddlers and Tiaras...
I loved the authors comment about Phil being “rhetorically unequipped”. Made me laugh. Phil knew exactly what he was saying. He doesn’t CARE about political correctness.
Well, that settles... that--
I’ll guarantee you there are far more males who identify with Phil Robertson than Pajama Boy. And I’ll bet far more Dem-voting males I know like Robertson and despise PJ boy. The nitwits who write the ads for lib advocacy campaigns have no idea how different they are from most people in flyover country....that’s where I live. The hip, metrosexual image might resonate in Manhattan or Berkeley, but out here in the middle of the country, those types are sneered at. But where I live many Dems own guns and hunt.
The author's solution is bass-ackwards.
Think of it this way ...
If they were choosing up teams for dodgeball (or an armed revolt), which team leader would you walk toward — Phil Robertson or Pajama Boy?
No hesitation which one I’d choose.
The above quote tells me where author is coming from. Does this brain dead maroon even stop to consider that the 'guys with the gun racks in their pickup trucks' might not *want* to be 'domesticated' (whatever *that* is supposed to mean). Just another smug, self righteous urbanite who truly believes that he/she is uniquely equipped to do the thinking for an entire nation, and that their 'one size fits all' solutions are not only appropriate, but essential. Phooey!

John Edwards also said that there are two Americas because his mansion is so big it covers most of one.
Pajama Boy’s picture needs to be posted on every bulletin board in every union shop in the country. Captioned: DEMOCRAT
