Ten bucks says A&E will cancel the show within a week.

And I'd bet ya a cup of coffee Beck would pick them up faster than goose crap through a tin horn, and more people would sign up for him or finally the big cable people would carry him.....

There was nothing hateful about the comment, of course

And all the other networks are praying they'll be that stupid so someone else can pick up the show.

I am not sure that tolerance in any area is a strong point with the left.

No, but it's refreshing to see people sticking to their guns and calling them out on their hypocrisy rather than pull a cave-o-matic and embark on a 57-state apology tour like conservatives usually do.

It always amazes me how so many people who are atheists get so upset when you tell them that something they are doing is a sin.

Like, you don’t even believe there IS a God, why do you care what the non-existent God doesn’t want you to do?

Anyway, the left knows what sin is — smoking cigarettes, being part of the tea party, liking monogamous life-time relationships with the opposite sex.

Exactly! If you’re confident there is no God, just feel sorry for me in my stupidity and we’ll agree to find out who’s right later. Stop trying to tell me what it means to be Christian when you make no claim to being one.

“Shouldn’t Americans be allowed to hold personal beliefs -- even if you don't agree with them?”

Apparently not. The more tolerant than thou libs cannot allow belief in the bible.

That is such a good analysis - I'm gonna file that one in the front of my brain ... :)

The very reasonableness of his remarks will infuriate the gays even worse than the most violent anti-gay rhetoric. Hardcore queer-bashing is anathema to everyone, so denouncing it is preaching to the choir.

These remarks, on the other hand, have the potential to give people a respite from the all pervading “gay is great” narrative, and therefore must be beaten back at all costs.

No backing down!

Sick of the idea that “some groups or people” are immune from criticism.

Sick of the idea that abnormal sexual behavior is to be celebrated.

And I will never accept the false proposition that homosexual behavior is as normal as heterosexual behavior. The number of particpants and nature’s purpose say otherwise, and I don’t need any religion involved to know that.

I’m sorry, only liberals are “entitled to air their opinions”.

I don’t think that he said anything offensive.

I am having a similar problem. As editor of a local Jewish newsletter, I refused to include news about someone’s “wedding” to her partner. A lot of liberal Baby Boomers are members of our organization; they will hate my guts and I will probably have to resign.

My prediction: it will be increasingly difficult for anyone conservative to work or socialize in the outside world. They will retreat to their own work spaces or communities.

Although I never watched the show (or own a TV), this guy Robertson sounds like one big man.
