"Duck Dynasty" stars Korie Robertson and Willie Robertson just alighted on the swamps of Washington, D.C. ... for an appearance at the White House Corresopndents' Dinner!

Just don't tell Tom Brokaw -- as we previously reported, the legendary newsman is boycotting the event after Lindsay Lohan made an appearance last year ... and that was the LAST STRAW.

“Duck Dynasty” stars Willie and Korie Robertson are set to go to tomorrow night’s White House Correspondents Dinner — one of the major social events of the year in Washington, DC — as guests of CBN News, the news arm of the Christian Broadcasting Network, founded by evangelist Pat Robertson.

News organizations compete to bring the biggest — and most newsworthy celebs — to the dinner, where the president traditionally delivers a comic send-up of the DC press corps.

I’ll keep watching. And convince someone new to watch to offset you.

YUP! Can't you see BO and The Moose..."What are THEY doing here?!"

I'm willing to give Willie and Kourie a pass on this.

CBN (Christian Broadcasting Network) brought them as their Guests. They were not “invited” by Al Jazzera.

seriously? How low can you go?. Eff this show now. You would think with their Christian faith based endings to every show with a family prayer they would be conservative. STUPID STUPID move.

Doesn’t bother me ‘too’ much about the DD guys attending, as I can look at it more from the vantage-point of them publicizing their brand, as opposed to some kind of all-out endorsement of the proceedings. Would have been obviously more impressed had they declined, though.

That said, the whole WHCD is something that fills me with abject revulsion. The entire elite ruling-class corruptocrats and their toadying handmaidens in the media, partying together... it’s just offensive and stomach-turning on so many levels. A gathering of sheer evil. The very cretins who have conspired together on so many levels to turn the country into such a sewer. Hate these bastards with a white-hot passion. Can’t watch more than ten seconds without wanting to put my fist into the tv-screen.

Mark 2:16 (KJV)

16 And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?


We are to go out into the world, not just hide in churhces.

yeah well, lemme know when they witness to the dear leader and ilk- I’ll agree with you- Jesus was upfront and outspoken abotu beign saved with thsoe folks- But I doubt we’ll see the same from duck dynasty- so yeah- if they don’t then that verse isn’t really describing their situation then- Be bible also says to be in the workld but not OF the world-

NOONE was sayign they shioudl hide in churches- not sure where yo picked that up from

and just for the record- the disciples were told to shake the dust fro mther sandals (a sign of abandonment) when the peopel of the hosue woudl NOT lsiten to what they had to say- they were told to turn their faces from them and not look back- so yeah- we can pull all manner of verses out of hte bible- but bottom line is that they DD woudl have set a much better example by declinign hte invitation out of principle and woudl have sent a clear message that they are true patriots who wouldn’t deign to attend an ANTIAMERICAN’s Dinner party

But wehatever- you see no problem with it- whatever-

Amazing, how many Christian folks had something to say, in a negative manner. You scripture pickin’ donkeys- need to give it a rest. Get off the Cross, already been done, and We need the Wood. Quit bein’ sissies about your Faith. Christ has no room for cowards. These wonderful people have taken a challenge from evil, and presented themselves as ambassadors of US American day to day, exceptionalism. May we thank God, for this Blessing

If I were in the DD folks' shoes, I think I would have politely declined the offer. Look at the negative reactions just on this thread. Bad move, I think.

I disagree. If there is anyone we should blame, it’s CBN.

I’m sure they had some “interesting” reason to invite the Ducky Folks. Maybe they just wanted to Class up the place.

So, you're saying that the Duck family had no choice in the matter? I'm afraid they did, and if the response on this thread is any barometer, it was the wrong choice.

Well, I remember when Matt Drudge accepted an invitation to the National Press Club... and smoked ‘em.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I remember that two, but we have one little problem. Korie Robertson and Willie Robertson are Obama supporting dems.Now if his uncle or father were attending the White House Correspondence Dinner, then there would be a chance for them to do as Drudge did. There would be Duck calls at every opportune moment as the fawning press speakers genuflected to Obama.

The WHite House Correspondents are just lackeys and fascist enablers. Too bad that Duck Dynasty has to shoulder the obvious down turn in its ratings because of this couple’s foolishness.
