LOL Posted twice. Someone told me yesterday that I reposted and now I’m passing it on.

I didn’t put Duck Dynasty in the keywords.

This is surprising? To back down on anything would be to renounce his entire Christian faith. That’s not going to happen...ever.

They misspelled "measured, reasonable, and accurate comments".

Hope that helps heaps.

The Marxist virtual firing squad is in full auto mode. Perhaps they can get as good a reaction as A&E for their agenda bias.

Only the GayKK and other HomoFascist supporting groups use the term “homophobic”

I don’t think Phil is afraid of Gays at all.

The liberals have, unfortunately successfully, made a lot of people believe in this hompohobia concept. it’s not correct, because a phobia means an irrational fear of something.

It’s not a phobia to oppose homosexual marriage or the gay agenda, but, that is how the term is used by liberals.

On another issue, I plead guilty to Islamophobia, which the liberals tell us is racist anf bigoted. Due to events such as 9/11, I have a fear of Muslim radicals. The liberals wouls call such a fear irrational, but, in my opinion, my fear of people such as Bin Laden is justified.

More and more mainstream sources are using it. Although their agenda is always suspect, I think there is also a potential issue of a lack of a better term. It might be a good idea if those of us on the right could find a more accurate term to use - that way we could also ridicule the intelligentsia for using a nonsensical term like homophobic.

Not being a latin expert, I Googled around. It appears that latin term for disgust is taedium or tedium.

So it would seem getting halfway there, homophobia is really homotedia and Phil Robertson would more accurately be calle homotedic than a homophobic.

I don't think "homo" is the correct prefix though, and I'm not sure there is one in latin.

GayKK. I like that. I thought Lavender Mafia was good, but GayKK is more catchy.

The statements he made were not anti-gay.

They were pro-normal and pro-scriptural,

and they weren’t based on his own authority.

since his homophobic comments

Just because I don't want weeds in my garden,
doesn't mean that I am afraid of dandelions.
