Did we learn anything from the Duck Dynasty fiasco this
week? If not we are in worse shape than
I thought. Political correctness is
destroying the fabric that has held us together since the beginning of the our
nation. Our designers knew we would be
faced with an attack against our system of government and that the attack would
come from within. That's why they set
our outline in the form of the Constitution.
They covered every base but one and that is apathy. When the people of this sovereign nation
become too apathetic to stand up for their own rights we will have failed the
greatest experiment in mans history. Freedom only comes from mans desire to be free
overriding mans great desire for free things.
Everything comes at a price and freedom is no different. There is no such thing as a free ride through
life, it comes with a big price and many are finally starting to feel the
weight of that bill. There are those who
relish an effortless trip through their time on this earth and do nothing to add
value to their existence. They don't
deserve the freedom that others have paid so dearly for.
Phil Robertson was asked a gotcha question by a liberal
reporter from GQ magazine who got exactly the answer he was looking for. Mr. Robertson gave the correct answer for the
question asked, it was a personal opinion and being a man of honor gave a
truthful answer. There was no malice
intended and he even offered the tenants of his basic feeling that his religion
has taught him to love all man, gay, straight or whatever the case may be. This is an honest man with an honest
answer. He should be applauded for his
ability to speak clearly from his heart not chastised because he doesn't agree
with a certain element of our society.
The Robertson's are pillars of the community they live in and are not
the bigots that they have been made out to be.
Shame on A&E and ABC for their quick kneejerk response to an
unwarranted attack by the people from GLAAD, the gay and lesbian group who have
tried to muzzle our freedom of speech based only on their core beliefs.
I sincerely hope this family will stick together and show
the world that their faith in their Patriarch and in their God is stronger than
any soulless acronym that may speak out against them.
