The good news, a Gay Couple will be getting “Married” on a Rose Parade Float next Wednesday.

Who the heck gets Married on a Wednesday? /s

It’s a long Parade, maybe they will have time for the Honeymoon where they can show the world what Phil was talking about.

Remember the firestorm when Sarah Palin said that people should be “tolerant” of Gays?

Tolerant, the new “T” word. Now you have to Accept and Support their Lifestyle or you are a Bigoted Homophobe Hater.

No, he shouldn't.

He spoke, intolerant bigots tried to silence him, and they've been soundly trounced in the court of public opinion. Today, A&E has run off with their tails between their legs.

You grant a rematch to a worthy opponent. No one as soundly whipped as GLAAD and the intolerant left is entitled to a rematch.

He has been to the White House a number of times.

Did he bend over for Obama, or did Obama bend over for him?

I wonder if Michael Weiner “Savage” will have to change his stage name.

I’m sure the writer believes an eloquent debater from the gay community would tear apart this “bible thumping hayseed Christian”, which is about as serious a miscalculation as the one A&E made in the first place when they thought that suspending Robertson would be accepted with open arms. Although showing a 26 hour marathon on Xmas day with Phil Robertson appearing in every episode and going ahead with their plans to air the next season of Duck Dynasty as planned, once again showing Phil in every single episode, is a funny way to show it. It reminds me of the modern parental approach to disciplining their children using “time outs”, instead of the tradional spanking used on children in every generation since Adam and Eve, but once again what did they know? It’s just that Biblical stuff again!.(LOL)

Exactly...why should he.

There’s nothing to debate. God’s word is God’s word. Some of us do our best to live by it, and some of us hate it because it seers our consciences. End of story.

There is absolutely no reason for Phil Robertson to debate that odious fascist. None.

He was right. He does not need to justify himself.

In fact if I were him I would not accept A&E’s reversal without some clarification from them that they accept his christian viewpoint as a valid world view and won’t be running spots apologizing or countering those christian opinions on air.

Why should he?

Good question. There is absolutely no way that Robertson would ever change Savage's mind, and absolutely no way that Savage would ever change Robertson's mind. So nothing would ever come of it.

The story is on Drudge. Anderson mentioned the incident from his mother’s, Gloria Vanderbilt, autobiography. Here is a link to one of the various stories about it. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2530039/Anderson-Cooper-discusses-mother-oral-sex-panel-show.html. He’s getting ready for hosting CNN ‘s classy New Years eve show with Cathy Griffen (look up what happened last year with those two when they co-hosted New Years eve.).

Is this the same show where the Ted Cruz thank you is supposed to run?
