WASHINGTON, December 21, 2013 With the onslaught of the media scandal involving Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson, its become crystal clear to me that the Progressive left has turned America into a veritable nation of sheep. We are intimidated into keeping our mouths shut and sitting idly by while the media mafia trample our precious First Amendment rights. Im not simply jumping on the bandwagon of this latest scandal. Ive walked a mile in Phil Robertsons boots. Im not just talking the talk. I have walked the walk. Five years ago, I was the spokesperson for the landmark, controversial Prop. 8, and I endured the full gamut of the backlash that Phil Robertson is enduring now. The attacks came in all forms: accusations of bigotry, hate speech, even death threats. You name it, I received it. The only difference between Phil Robertson and me well, other than the beard is that conservative blogs which exist to defend Phil Robertson today didnt exist back then. There was no such thing as Glenn Becks TheBlaze, or Michelle Malkins Twitchy. Even Twitter was just a glimmer in Jack Dorseys eye. It was a lonely journey, and those of us who worked hard to pass Prop. 8 were pioneers, of sorts, on this journey. Perhaps even more forcefully than Robertson is being told by A&E today, we were informed would never work again if we helped the passage of the marriage protection initiative. As the spokesperson for Prop. 8, I was warned numerous times that if I became too synonymous with supporting traditional values and traditional marriage, hence being seen as being anti-gay, that I would never work in this town again.

No, Phil Thompson played Shortstop for the Cleveland Browns in the 1985 AFC Championship game and got 30 rebounds but fouled out in the third period.
I’m guessing 1/2 the people across this nation that heard that verse in the past 3 days heard it for the very first time. That is the real “win” in this deal.
Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio......
The tolerant liberals and their overarching media have become" have always been hostile and silencing. We must fight.
Well, did they win the Stanley Cup anyway? I missed it.
the Progressive left has turned America into a veritable nation of sheep
That is the GOAL. Sheep will never question or challenge the politically correct elite.
Don we now our happy, happy, happy apparel?
Silly goose. Of course not, first of all its the Stanley trophy you are getting it confuse with the Lombardi Cup. and secondly they lost to the Toledo Mudhens in suddendeath overtime when O.J. Robinson scored his third Hat Trick and got a triple and 22 points from the line!
Thank-you for your thread....
I know you meant well...
Just a small correction
His name is Phil Robertson
I know it’easy to confuse Phil Robertson with Jim Robinson :)
I don't know if this is the exact verse, but someone mentioned that something close to it was essentially the platform of the Democrat party. I got a good laugh out of that.
Here’s the one they really need to hear, in Romans, chapter 1 ...
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.
17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,
19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.
20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,
21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
22 Professing to be wise, they became fools,
23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible manand birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.
24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,
25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.
27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,
30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful;
32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
THAT would certainly be dynamite to LGBT-types ... :-) ...
Im sure they are foaming at the mouth at this part ...

Also, in reference to what someone else said about homosexuality being another sin - just like all the sins listed in the Bible ... Ill have to point out that its QUITE UNIQUE in comparison to other sins. I said the following in another posting elsewhere ...
The unique thing about what God said in Romans 1 is that this particular sin is actually a judgement from God in that He has them debasing themselves in such a way. THIS (what the LGBTs promote) is actually Gods judgement upon them in that they are to do these things to themselves. They, therefore, receive gods judgement in the here and now for clearly rejecting what god has made clear to the,.
SO ... while these are all sins - fornication, adultery, thieving, drunkenness, slandering, swindling - and will not be allowed into Heaven ... none of these are, in and of themselves - a condition which God imposes upon people for their rejection of what God has made clear to them,
On the other hand the LGBT lifestyle is a specific condition and judgement of God Himself - upon these people,
AND THEREFORE, God has put upon them the absolute worst of the worst sin possible in a human being - in order to thoroughly DEBASE them to the ultimate extent in THIS LIFE, in the HERE AND NOW and not upon Judgement Day.
LGBT-people are a walking advertisement of God thoroughly debasing someone to the maximum extent possible, in a human being. They are walking around with a neon flashing sign saying Look at me! God has not even waited until Judgement Day to judge me!
Hope you have not died from embarrassment. You probably do not realize that you have quite possibly made yourself in the FR Lexicon; if that still exixts. Here’s the last version a quick search pulled up

Your post makes no sense at all.

It’s about time America stands up to the homosexual Mafia.
