ABC to Phil Robertson: 'Would You Consider Yourself a Homophobe?'
NewsBusters ^ | September 2, 2014 | Scott Whitlock

Posted on 09/02/2014 7:32:48 PM PDT by walford

Although Phil Robertson appeared on Tuesday's Good Morning America to promote his new book, reporter Ryan Owens couldn't resist portraying the reality show personality as an anti-gay bigot. Owens reminded viewers of the Duck Dynasty star's interview with GQ where he called homosexuality a sin. Owens pressed, "Would you consider yourself a homophobe?" [See video below. MP3 audio here.]

Robertson retorted, "I'm as much of a homophobe as Jesus was. People who are participating in homosexual behavior, they need to know that I love them." ABC has not been consistent in pressing liberal celebrities about their controversial views. GMA hosts have repeatedly hyped Rosie O'Donnell without questioning the comedienne's 9/11 conspiracy beliefs.

Homophobia is a mental illness, an irrational fear of homosexuals because exposure might bring out one's own latent homosexuality. Does that apply to him or anyone else who does not accept the Left's perspective? No, it is their arrogance. They are basically saying that anyone who disagrees with them are by definition mentally ill.

I am not afraid of homosexuals — I hate their deviate life style. We should explain to children their actual sex acts.

“Homophobia is a mental illness”

Correction. homosexuality is a mental illness

Homophobia is a made up word that appears in no professional psychiatric journal on phobias. It’s as real as Islamophobia

Yea, I’m wondering what the Left’s pseudo-clinical definition of ‘Islamophobia’ is.

Public schools are doing that already. Of course they are explaining it in a way that makes the children believe it is natural.

Reminds me of an exchange between Marge and Homer Simpson when she was concerned that her husband didn’t understand that his new friend was a little...different.

“Isn’t he a little...festive?”

“Happy as a clam!”

“He prefers the company of men.”

“Who doesn’t?”

The lamestream media and their willing accomplices on Hollywierd are just chomping at the bit waiting for someone in the Robertson family to come out. If the politically correct not-sees are right, 10% of the population is LGBT, 1 out of 10. With a family as large as the Robertsons, odds are at least one of them will turn out “that way”, so they think. They’re having orgasms just thinking of this scenario.

“Homophobia” is a myth created by the heavy users of recreational drugs down at the extreme left wing of the DNC.

“reporter Ryan Owens...” I am not familiar with this person but “reporter” is often an incorrect term for much of today's media. More like “brainwasher” or “conformist.” Dare to have a different opinion with a liberal. Conformity is their religion, their ideology. Stand in line and take a number. Reminds me of a few Twilight Zone episodes.

1.6% have chosen the homo lifestyle.

10% is a lie and pure satanic propaganda.

The 10% figure comes from the Left. The actual percentage is considerably lower, depending on the source.

If using the word “faggot” is hate speech, so is using the word homophobe.
