Phil Robertson, the patriarch of A&E's Duck Dynasty clan who was suspended from his hit reality series on Dec. 18 following some incendiary comments about gay people, won't be put on hiatus after all.

If A and E is so concerned about tolerance, why no tolerance for the views of Christians?
I truly don’t understand.
The left seems to say, “Everyone must have tolerance and acceptance for our views, but we will not even consider being tolerant of the views of others.”
The truth is that Americans have always been tolerant of homos. Rarely did anyone go out and find a homo to pick on or hurt.
This issue is not really about tolerance. The activist homo agenda is about acceptance and advocacy.
Tolerance is the phony cover for advocacy and promotion of gay lifestyle.
The one where he shoots and guts the hog with the super-hot yupppie Daughter-in-Law is priceless.
Camo outfits took on a whole new meaning for me with that one
Welcomes? My butt! They begrudgingly changed their minds after the huge display of support for Phil and negative emails from A&E viewers.
spot on post.
Thank you
That and the redneck swimming hole were my two favorite episodes.
What difference do the PSAs make? Have you ever watched the disgusting commercials that air during regular Duck Dynasty shows? They have been enough for me to change the channel. The commercials I have seen that are not family friendly don’t just come on once during a show either. They are played during every commercial break.
One of the first episodes I watched was the animal photographer.
“He has Mother issues”.
I was hooked ever since.
I was hoping they were going to get an apology out of this, but I guess its not coming
We apologize for offending all people who hold those traditional values.
That's what they should say.
I think his son that shares his values is in prison
The irony of trying to use ‘tolerance’ to silence those who disagree.
Who watches a show for the commercials?
Aside from Flo, the Geico Commercials and the one with the little kids, I can’t say I could name you one other advertiser on TV.
Maybe the next flare-up is just around the corner?, You know, the final straw
My contention is A&E knew all along Phil Robertson’s religious beliefs. They didn’t care. Duck Dynasty made too much money for them and their homosexual friendly sponsors. When Phil Robertson was set-up, and I truly believe it was a set up by the magazine and they asked him his opinion on a few things he told them exactly what his views were concerning the word of the Bible. When GLADD and the rest of the radical left-wingers got wind of the interview they came after A&E and told the network to fire him. Instead of standing up for Robertson he was thrown under the bus, but only for a while, to make the radical homosexuals happy. A&E NEVER had any intention of going through with firing him. This was all show and tell. And if you don’t believe me watch how fast GLADD and the rest of the leftists now attack A&E and at the same time they will continue attacking anything to do with Duck Dynasty. It makes no difference to GLADD and the rest of the Christian haters. The travesty is A&E not standing up for Robertson when they had the chance and telling GLADD to go straight to hell. The minute the contract is up the entire cast of Duck Dynasty should tell A&E to take a hike and I think that’s what they do.
Frankly, I don’t watch it on TV. DVDs... :o)
“they will run PSA’s pushing fags as normal during the show and the family will help promote tolerance.”
That’s the outcome in a nutshell.
When glaad and the NAACP are quiet, you know something is up. A shame so many are celebrating before knowing the terms of the surrender.

Before ‘this big win’: Duck Dynasty
After ‘this big win’: Duck Dynasty with homo ads
I sure don’t get what the celebrating is about LOL!
