Duck Dynasty is one of our favorite television programs. Obviously, we are not alone. Duck Dynasty has been a ratings success for the A&E television network. It averages 14 million viewers an episode. The question the main stream media should really be asking is - why? Maybe, just maybe, if they paid attention, they might learn something about this wonderful Nation and the longing in the human hearts of real, regular folks. Perhaps if political observers paid attention, they might actually recognize a growing resistance movement...
I am tired of the agendas of the Cultural Revolution winding their way into much network television programming.
The reality is this salt of the earth, down to earth Christian father, grandfather and faithful patriotic American, with his wonderful, blunt and true witness of a conversion to the Lord Jesus Christ, is being pilloried by many who now propose nothing less than a Cultural Revolution in America and the West. ...
To all of that I say, "You go Phil". Duck Dynasty and the GQ Interview of Phil Robertson is a refreshing rejection of Political Correctness...

He’s been kicked off the show? How is the rest of the family taking that?
The answer would be yes, they have.
A&E killed the Goose that laid the Golden Eggs. And now?? They’ve pleased the homosexual 2% and lost their #1 show? Bad bad bad decision.
They fired Phil, but since they’ve already filmed the next season, he will be in that.
I emailed them last night.
I tried contacting A&E but their website was temporarily unavailable for contact. We need to make this bigger than Chick Filet. As long as the rest of this family does not compromise with A&E’s godless agenda, we need to support this family that holds traditional Christian values. We are in a great battle and A&E with their GLAAD and LGBT partners are firing a shot across our bow!
Meanwhile actor Alec Baldwin can threaten his ex wife, his daughter, photographers, make one gay slur after another for years. As a reward he has been given a tv series and commercial endorsements.
Adam Carrola called it last month before this happened.

That is a great line.
It’s not about the 1.2% that are gay,
it’s about the majority that are Christian -
that is the target group for criminalization of belief.
I know. I emailed them last night when it first broke. I tried emailing IHop, one of another program aired by A&E and it did not go through because they requested too much info. They do have a store in Plant City though. When I go to town in a few minutes I will personally tell the manager why I will no longer patronize their establishment.
They had Breaking Bad and DD.
Now, they got squat.
Cannot think of another single show I watch on that channel.
BRAVO!!!! Well said, Phil!!!
You spoke truth; apparently A&E can’t handle the Truth.
Luke 6:22 “Blessed are you when men hate you, and when they exclude you and revile you, and cast out your name as evil, on account of the Son of man!
John 15:18-21 “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you, ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also. But all this they will do to you on my account, because they do not know him who sent me.
I used to read GQ in college. Back then it helped teach boys how to dress and act like young men. (1984)
It went WAAAY left to the point I couldn’t deal, then it went into the gutter.
It doesn’t take a genius of an entertainment marketing person to see that almost ANY programming that caters to traditional family values (Blue Bloods, The Bible, Duck Dynasty) is going to be a ratings success.
I know there are a lot of Rush haters on FR (not sure why, but . . ) but to pick the AM band, and broadcast 9 to noon on the West Coast is just putting you at every single ratings disadvantage you can image - yet he’s the king.
It tells you how much money is in entertainment, that they can purposefully market crap nobody wants to see and still keep their jobs.
It IS a cultural revolution, and not about profit.
I won’t pay for propaganda, but I will pay for information and entertainment.
Admittedly, this is facebook, but I do find it amusing that almost as many likes as 4% of those who watched the record breaking season premier of Duck Dynasty have so far liked the page.

Count my vote in the “really prefer a vagina” column....
The homosexual McCarthyites blacklist anyone who is not a homosexualist.
