Remember when Palin was introduced as the VP in 2008 and all the ensuing investigation into her life? We knew every embarrassing thing about her. Though we didn't learn one thing about Obama.
I fear the Robertson family is going to undergo a treatment far worse than hers.
The Left and the homosexual community have been embarrassed tremendously by this event. They will not take this setback lightly. So instead of overtly attacking the Robertsons, they will shift gears, find any piece of dirt they can and leak it to the media in a attempt to wear down support for this family.
So we best be prepared to hear some dirt on Phil and company, but yet remember that if any of our lives were under the microscope there's no telling what would be unearthed.
Continue to pray for Phil and his family.
Conservatives do not realize they have lost all ability to prevent someone from being completely demonized.
I don’t think so.
What we’re seeing is Phil Robertson standing up for himself.
That is so refreshing. And the media is lost.
Palin did that, but McCain in my opinion held her back. I hope she runs in 2016, and stands up strong.
Yes! Even if she loses she needs to run ALL THE WAY!!!!!
Here at FR we saw that incredible first three days when Palin was chosen.
Palin was named on Friday morning and over the weekend, there was a massive dumping of rumors, accusations, fake scandals and lies, it was incredible.
The left media and internet, exploded with white hot flames of destruction, and then echoed and repeated it for years.
I guess that doesn't count when you're a conservative.

Start looking A__holes. The best they could find on Bush 43 was a misdemeaner DUI when he was 17. The real target should be the 50 a__holes in the White Hut and the dumbass Obamacare.
The Robertsons have way too many supporters, and the people who hate them don't watch their show or patronize their business anyway.
The only articles you're going to see are those from the homosexual movement and Left calling for more "tolerance" and "openness" and "We denounce all bigotry" and such. The homosexual movement stepped in to it big time and are now trying to slow the bleeding.
See Chick-fil-A for example as how to deal with the GayMafia.
What they fail to grasp is that Phil Robertson/Duck Dynasty was just the trigger. The backlash had very little to do with him in particular and was more an indication that there are a great many who are fed up with perverts and predators and special interests on the left pushing them around and telling them what they ought to think, and what they ought to believe. This anger has been simmering for a long time was it boiling over was inevitable. In fact I’m surprised it took this long.
Other than hearing over & over that he’s spoken out on homosexuality before, I doubt we’ll hear anything bad (unless you’re gay-Hurrah!).
Oh, but they’ll “make stuff up” out of whole cloth. Don’t be surprised. Just think of that ludicrous book accusing Palin of being an adulterous, cocaine-snorting crack whore!
Yes indeed. And the reaction was quick.
Yes, the Paula Deen thing was pathetic. Lots of people were ready to back her up, after the insane hit-job on her, but she went crying and groveling to the media elites, begging to get back in their good graces.
Palin and Robertson are fighters, and seem to have that inner peace through God, which curtails any ridiculous need for approval from the corrupt cultural gatekeepers.
My eyes are not good as they once were, but there is nothing lovely about Obama’s wife.
That’s known as humor, satire or irony.
Of course they will. That’s what they do. The Robertsons don’t need them - they were quietly getting wealthy long before the show ever came about. The only way the elites can hurt them is to keep people from hunting - so expect yet another big push to ban guns, with our “independent” media leading the way.
Edward, you are absolutely on target, this backlash has little to do with the Ducks, and more of a frustration that has been simmering beneath the surface with the homosexualazation of our culture..
The left has successfully bullied any push back, primarily with the aid of the massive media bulwark.. The Obama Administration has also furnished a political cover for the Gay movement with his purge of everything Military..
This may serve as a turning point that must win these skirmishes, much like we did with Chic fil a..
When the LGBT-types are hammering away at Phil Robertson, they do so because they don’t want to hammer away directly at what God says. Phil is more convenient for them
This — however — is where Phil gets his information about the LGBT-types, which they absolutely hate anyone saying it.
In Romans 1, God says ...
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.
17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,
19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.
20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,
21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
22 Professing to be wise, they became fools,
23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.
24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,
25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.
27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,
30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful;
32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
THAT would certainly be “dynamite” to LGBT-types ... :-) ...
I’m sure they are “foaming at the mouth” at this part ...
