For the sake of America, please, please Phil do not surrender. We have seen this scenario played out on countless occasions; the left launching a shock-and-awe gang media assault on someone who dared to publicly challenge political correctness. The target of their wrath is bludgeoned into submission; overwhelmed with daily hit pieces filled with exaggerations, distortions and even lies about the target's original comment and intent.
I am black. In his GQ mag interview, I felt no "evil or racist" intent in Phil Robertson's comments about the blacks he knew in his youth. And yet, Phil's intention is irrelevant to the left. Like sharks smelling blood in the water, they pounced on an opportunity to "trap" Phil; branding him a racist and a hater of homosexuals for simply quoting the Bible.
The left reminds me of the pious, arrogant and elitist Pharisees in the Bible. They hated Jesus for doing good works, miracles and connecting with the people. So, they launched a campaign of word games designed to "trap" Jesus into saying something that would help them to brand Jesus a lawbreaker and blasphemer. The left employs very similar tactics.
These people on the left are despicable. They are not about fairness or truth. They are about furthering their liberal socialist progressive agenda by any means necessary. So if dividing the country along racial lines helps their cause, so be it.
They say the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior. Thus, it does not take a genius to know how the left's war on Phil Robertson, which is really a war on traditional America, will play out.
Phase one is their tsunami of published hit pieces and media pundits branding Phil Robertson a sexist, racist and homophobic. Phase two is to have the whole bowl of left-wing alphabet soup (NAACP, GLAD and NOW) attack Phil from all sides.
Phase three is Sharpton or Jackson demanding that they "get paid" and the offender kiss their ring. In the case of the Duck Dynasty controversy, master exploiter and extortionist Jesse Jackson has taken the lead, demanding that A&E and Cracker Barrel meet with him. http://bit.ly/1g4Qenx
Whether or not A&E and Cracker Barrel bows down to worship Jackson remains to be seen. My plea to Phil Robertson is that he please, please, please do not surrender. Do not on bended knee kiss Jackson's ring and beg for forgiveness. It would be a mortal blow to the tremendous example he had set inspiring Americans to push back against the tyranny of political correctness.
In every incident of a slip of the tongue or misinterpreted comment by a conservative or a Republican, the left's political correctness police bludgeons them within inches of their political life. The targeted person humbly surrenders and begs for forgiveness; all of which empowers the left, furthers their agenda and adds another notch on their gun.
To my knowledge, Phil Robertson is the first to push back against political correctness with the support of a vast majority of the American people. Thus, to Brother Phil I offer a few pearls of wisdom. In case of a near death experience, do not go to the light. As told to Luke Sky-walker, "Stay away from the dark side"; and when unjustly accused of being a racist, do not kiss Sharpton or Jesse (where's the camera) Jackson's ring.
Phil, surrender would break our hearts. Good folks across America are praying for you.
I don’t think we have to worry about this.
Jesse the Race Hustler is just looking for another payday. This cooked up “controversy” doesn’t have a damn thing to do with African - Americans. It’s about sexual deviancy running rampant over our country. Go away Jesse. America has had all of you that they need. Your shtick has gotten old.
We don't have to worry about Robertson doing this, but we need to be prepared for them ASKING.
Jesse SHUT UP and GO VISIT YOUR SON IN FEDERAL PRISON!
HIS SIN WAS TAKING ADVANTAGE OF BLACK PRIVILEDGE!!
Jackson, 48, a South Side Democrat, served in Congress nearly 17 years before he quit last November amid a federal corruption probe. In August he was sentenced to 30 months in prison for looting his campaign fund of $750,000.
Jackson Jr. assigned to minimum security section of prison
Phil should just ask Jesse if he speaks for all the gay blacks.
I really don't think so, either, but stranger things have happened. Phil should see the utterly awesome, MASSIVE outpouring of support of the majority of the American people, and that should further bolster his already strong spine.
Yeah, no.
I’m not seeing it happen....Jack.
;)
They see it and frankly, I think they’re blown away by it a little.
If Robertson deigns or give Jackson an audience, he should demand Jackson publicly apologize for deliberately misreading and misinterpreting his comments.
Excellent, excellent, excellent analogy.
And when he’s done at the prison visiting Junior, he can stop by and see his illegitimate child.
Jesse Jackson = Hypocritical racist conman. I’ve never watched Duck Dynasty and have no interest in it, but I am fed up to here with people being told what they are allowed to think, feel, believe, and say out loud about any and all Liberal Sacred Cows.
They oughta be! We WAY outnumber them, and I would bet they darned well know it!
When I could hear, I never understood a single word jesse jackson said. Now that I CAN’T hear, I STILL don’t understand a word jesse jackson says. It’s nonsense. Pure and simple.
Exactly! :-)
Ayuh! Gooooood paychecks, from goooood crackers!
Jesse Jackson = Racist Cammando
